Genesis 7
1 Then the LORD said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.
Yawe alobaki na Noa: « Kota na masuwa, yo mpe libota na yo mobimba, pamba te yo kaka nde omonani sembo na miso na Ngai kati na bato ya ekeke oyo.
2 You are to take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate; a pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate;
Kamata banyama sambo ya mibali mpe sambo ya basi kati na banyama ya lolenge nyonso oyo ezangi mbindo; mpe nyama moko ya mobali mpe moko ya mwasi kati na banyama oyo ezali mbindo.
3 and seven pairs of every kind of bird of the air, male and female, to preserve their offspring on the face of all the earth.
Kamata lisusu bandeke sambo ya mibali mpe sambo ya basi kati na lolenge nyonso ya bandeke mpo ete esila te kati na mokili.
4 For seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living thing I have made.”
Pamba te etikali mikolo sambo mpo ete nanokisa mvula oyo ekowumela mikolo tuku minei mpe babutu tuku minei mpe nakosilisa koboma bikelamu nyonso oyo nasala kati na mokili oyo. »
5 And Noah did all that the LORD had commanded him.
Bongo, Noa asalaki makambo nyonso ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye.
6 Now Noah was 600 years old when the floodwaters came upon the earth.
Noa azalaki na mibu nkama motoba ya mbotama tango mpela eyaki na mokili.
7 And Noah and his wife, with his sons and their wives, entered the ark to escape the waters of the flood.
Noa mpe bana na ye ya mibali elongo na mwasi na ye mpe basi ya bana na ye bakotaki na masuwa mpo ete babika na mpela.
8 The clean and unclean animals, the birds, and everything that crawls along the ground
Kati na banyama ya lolenge nyonso, moko ya mobali mpe moko ya mwasi, ezala oyo ezanga mbindo to oyo ezali mbindo, bandeke mpe banyama oyo etambolaka na libumu
9 came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.
eyaki epai na Noa mpe ekotaki na masuwa, mwasi na mobali, ndenge Nzambe atindaki Noa.
10 And after seven days the floodwaters came upon the earth.
Bongo sima na mikolo sambo, mpela eyaki na mokili.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month, all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened.
Tango Noa akokisaki mibu nkama motoba ya mbotama, na sanza ya mibale, na mokolo ya zomi na sambo, bitima nyonso ya se mpe maninisa nyonso ya likolo efungwamaki.
12 And the rain fell upon the earth for forty days and forty nights.
Mvula enokaki na mokili mikolo tuku minei mpe babutu tuku minei.
13 On that very day Noah entered the ark, along with his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and his wife, and the three wives of his sons—
Kaka na mokolo wana, Noa mpe bana na ye ya mibali: Semi, Cham mpe Jafeti, elongo na mwasi na ye mpe basi misato ya bana na ye, bakotaki na masuwa.
14 they and every kind of wild animal, livestock, crawling creature, bird, and winged creature.
Elongo na bango, ekotaki mpe banyama ya zamba ya lolenge nyonso, bibwele ya lolenge nyonso, bikelamu ya lolenge nyonso oyo etambolaka na libumu mpe bandeke ya lolenge nyonso mpe bikelamu nyonso oyo ezali na mapapu.
15 They came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two of every creature with the breath of life.
Mwasi na mobali, kati na bikelamu nyonso oyo ezali na bomoi, eyaki epai ya Noa mpo na kokota na masuwa.
16 And they entered, the male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah. Then the LORD shut him in.
Banyama nyonso oyo ekotaki kuna ezalaki mwasi na mobali kati na bikelamu nyonso oyo ezali na bomoi, ndenge Nzambe atindaki Noa. Sima, Yawe akangaki ekuke ya masuwa.
17 For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth, and the waters rose and lifted the ark high above the earth.
Mpela ewumelaki na mokili mikolo tuku minei; mayi ekomaki ebele mpe etombolaki masuwa likolo na yango.
18 So the waters continued to surge and rise greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the waters.
Mayi emataki mpe ekomaki ebele, bongo masuwa ekomaki kotepatepa likolo ya mayi.
19 Finally, the waters completely inundated the earth, so that all the high mountains under all the heavens were covered.
Mayi emataki lisusu makasi mpe bangomba nyonso ya milayi oyo ezalaki na mokili ezindaki na se ya mayi.
20 The waters rose and covered the mountaintops to a depth of fifteen cubits.
Mayi emataki lisusu likolo ya bangomba na bosanda ya bametele pene sambo to mwambe.
21 And every living thing that moved upon the earth perished—birds, livestock, animals, every creature that swarms upon the earth, and all mankind.
Bikelamu nyonso ya bomoi kati na mokili ekufaki, ezala bandeke, bibwele, banyama ya zamba to mpe banyama ya mike-mike oyo etambolaka na mabele to mpe bato nyonso.
22 Of all that was on dry land, everything that had the breath of life in its nostrils died.
Nyonso oyo ezalaki na pema ya bomoi ekufaki kati na mokili.
23 And every living thing on the face of the earth was destroyed—man and livestock, crawling creatures and birds of the air; they were blotted out from the earth, and only Noah and those with him in the ark remained.
Boye, Yawe alongolaki kati na mokili bikelamu nyonso oyo ezalaki na bomoi, kobanda na moto kino na ebwele, ekelamu oyo etambolaka na libumu mpe ndeke ya likolo; alongolaki bango na mokili mpe etikalaki kaka Noa na ba-oyo bazalaki na ye elongo na masuwa.
24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth for 150 days.
Mayi etondaki na mokili mikolo nkama moko na tuku mitano.
The Great Flood
