Genesis 8
1 But God remembered Noah and all the animals and livestock that were with him in the ark. And God sent a wind over the earth, and the waters began to subside.
Un Dievs pieminēja Nou un visus zvērus un visus lopus, kas līdz ar to bija šķirstā, un Dievs deva vēju virs zemes, un ūdeņi nostājās.
2 The springs of the deep and the floodgates of the heavens were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained.
Un bezdibeņa avoti un debess logi tapa aizdarīti, un lietus no debess tapa aizturēts.
3 The waters receded steadily from the earth, and after 150 days the waters had gone down.
Un ūdeņi atgriezās no zemes virsas, šurp un turp tecēdami, un ūdeņi krita pēc simts un piecdesmit dienām.
4 On the seventeenth day of the seventh month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
Un šķirsts nolaidās septītā mēnesī septiņpadsmitā mēneša dienā uz Ararata kalniem.
5 And the waters continued to recede until the tenth month, and on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains became visible.
Un ūdeņi notecēja šurp un turp līdz desmitam mēnesim; desmitā mēnesī un pirmā mēneša dienā rādījās kalnu gali.
6 After forty days Noah opened the window he had made in the ark
Un notikās pēc četrdesmit dienām, tad Noa atvēra šķirsta logu, ko viņš bija taisījis,
7 and sent out a raven. It kept flying back and forth until the waters had dried up from the earth.
Un izlaida kraukli, un tas skraidīja šurp un turp, kamēr ūdeņi nosīka no zemes virsas.
8 Then Noah sent out a dove to see if the waters had receded from the surface of the ground.
Pēc tam viņš izlaida balodi, lai redzētu, vai ūdeņi jau noskrējuši no zemes virsas.
9 But the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him in the ark, because the waters were still covering the surface of all the earth. So he reached out his hand and brought her back inside the ark.
Bet balodis neatrada, kur kāja varētu dusēt, un atgriezās pie viņa šķirstā, jo ūdeņi vēl bija pa visu zemes virsu; un viņš izstiepa savu roku un to satvēra un ņēma pie sevis šķirstā.
10 Noah waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark.
Un pagaidīja vēl citas septiņas dienas un izlaida atkal balodi no šķirsta ārā.
11 And behold, the dove returned to him in the evening with a freshly plucked olive leaf in her beak. So Noah knew that the waters had receded from the earth.
Un balodis nāca pie viņa ap vakara laiku, un redzi, norauta eļļas koka lapa bija viņa mutē. Tad Noa noprata, ka ūdeņi bija noskrējuši no zemes virsas,
12 And Noah waited seven more days and sent out the dove again, but this time she did not return to him.
Un pagaidīja vēl citas septiņas dienas un izlaida balodi, un tas negriezās vairs atpakaļ pie viņa.
13 In Noah’s six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters had dried up from the earth. So Noah removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry.
Un notikās sešsimt pirmajā gadā, pirmā mēnesī, pirmā mēneša (dienā), tad ūdeņi izsīka no zemes virsas, un Noa noņēma šķirsta jumtu un skatījās, un redzi, zemes virsa bija apžuvusi.
14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month, the earth was fully dry.
Un otrā mēnesī, divdesmit septītā mēneša dienā, zeme bija nožuvusi.
15 Then God said to Noah,
Tad Dievs runāja uz Nou sacīdams:
16 “Come out of the ark, you and your wife, along with your sons and their wives.
Izej no šķirsta, tu un tava sieva un tavi dēli un tavas vedeklas līdz ar tevi,
17 Bring out all the living creatures that are with you—birds, livestock, and everything that crawls upon the ground—so that they can spread out over the earth and be fruitful and multiply upon it.”
Visas dzīvības, kas pie tevis, no ikkatras miesas, no putniem un no lopiem un no visiem līdējiem tārpiem virs zemes, tie lai iziet līdz ar tevi, un lai tie pulkiem rodas un augļojās virs zemes.
18 So Noah came out, along with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.
Tad Noa izgāja un līdz ar viņu viņa dēli un viņa sieva un viņa vedeklas,
19 Every living creature, every creeping thing, and every bird—everything that moves upon the earth—came out of the ark, kind by kind.
Visi zvēri, visi tārpi un visi putni, viss, kas virs zemes kust, izgāja no šķirsta pēc savām sugām.
20 Then Noah built an altar to the LORD. And taking from every kind of clean animal and clean bird, he offered burnt offerings on the altar.
Un Noa uztaisīja Tam Kungam altāri un ņēma no visiem šķīstiem lopiem un no visiem šķīstiem putniem un upurēja Tam Kungam dedzināmos upurus uz tā altāra.
21 When the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.
Un Tas Kungs oda to saldo smaržu un sacīja Savā sirdī: “Es joprojām vairs nenolādēšu zemi cilvēka dēļ, jo cilvēka sirdsprāts ir ļauns no mazām dienām, un Es joprojām vairs negribu samaitāt visu, kas dzīvo, kā esmu darījis.
22 As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall never cease.”
Kamēr būs dienas virs zemes, nemitēsies sēšana un pļaušana, aukstums un karstums, vasara un ziema, diena un nakts.”
