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.
E lembrou-se Deus de Noé, e de toda a besta, e de todo o animal, e de toda a rez que com elle estava na arca: e Deus fez passar um vento sobre a terra, e aquietaram-se as aguas.
2 The springs of the deep and the floodgates of the heavens were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained.
Cerraram-se tambem as fontes do abysmo, e as janellas dos céus, e a chuva dos céus deteve-se.
3 The waters receded steadily from the earth, and after 150 days the waters had gone down.
E as aguas tornaram de sobre a terra continuamente, e ao cabo de cento e cincoenta dias as aguas minguaram.
4 On the seventeenth day of the seventh month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
E a arca repousou, no setimo mez, no dia dezesete do mez, sobre os montes de Ararat.
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.
E foram as aguas indo e minguando até ao decimo mez: no decimo mez, no primeiro dia do mez, appareceram os cumes dos montes.
6 After forty days Noah opened the window he had made in the ark
E aconteceu que, ao cabo de quarenta dias, abriu Noé a janella da arca que tinha feito.
7 and sent out a raven. It kept flying back and forth until the waters had dried up from the earth.
E soltou um corvo, que saiu, indo e voltando, até que as aguas se seccaram de sobre a terra.
8 Then Noah sent out a dove to see if the waters had receded from the surface of the ground.
Depois soltou uma pomba, a vêrse as aguas tinham minguado de sobre a face da terra.
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.
A pomba porém não achou repouso para a planta do seu pé, e voltou a elle para a arca; porque as aguas estavam sobre a face de toda a terra: e elle estendeu a sua mão, e tomou-a, e metteu-a comsigo na arca.
10 Noah waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark.
E esperou ainda outros sete dias, e tornou a enviar a pomba fóra da arca.
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.
E a pomba voltou a elle sobre a tarde; e eis, arrancada, uma folha de oliveira no seu bico: e conheceu Noé que as aguas tinham minguado sobre a terra.
12 And Noah waited seven more days and sent out the dove again, but this time she did not return to him.
Então esperou ainda outros sete dias; e enviou fóra a pomba, mas não tornou mais a elle.
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.
E aconteceu que no anno seiscentos e um, no mez primeiro, no primeiro dia do mez, as aguas se seccaram de sobre a terra: então Noé tirou a cobertura da arca, e olhou, e eis que a face da terra estava enxuta.
14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month, the earth was fully dry.
E no segundo mez, aos vinte e sete dias do mez, a terra estava secca.
15 Then God said to Noah,
Então fallou Deus a Noé, dizendo:
16 “Come out of the ark, you and your wife, along with your sons and their wives.
Sae da arca, tu, e tua mulher, e teus filhos, e as mulheres de teus filhos comtigo.
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.”
Todo o animal que está comtigo, de toda a carne, de ave, e de gado, e de todo o reptil que se roja sobre a terra traze fóra comtigo; e povôem abundantemente a terra, e fructifiquem, e se multipliquem sobre a terra.
18 So Noah came out, along with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.
Então saiu Noé, e seus filhos, e sua mulher, e as mulheres de seus filhos com elle,
19 Every living creature, every creeping thing, and every bird—everything that moves upon the earth—came out of the ark, kind by kind.
Todo o animal, todo o reptil, e toda a ave, e tudo o que se move sobre a terra, conforme as suas familias, saiu para fóra da arca.
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.
E edificou Noé um altar ao Senhor; e tomou de todo o animal limpo, e de toda a ave limpa, e offereceu holocaustos sobre o altar.
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.
E o Senhor cheirou o suave cheiro, e disse o Senhor em seu coração: Não tornarei mais a amaldiçoar a terra por causa do homem; porque a imaginação do coração do homem é má desde a sua meninice, nem tornarei mais a ferir todo o vivente, como fiz.
22 As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall never cease.”
Emquanto a terra durar, sementeira e sega, e frio e calor, e verão e inverno, e dia e noite, não cessarão.
