Genesis 6
1 And it came to pass when mankind began to multiply on the earth, and daughters were born to them,
人地の面に繁衍はじまりて女子之に生るるに及べる時
2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair, and took themselves wives of all that they chose.
神の子等人の女子の美しきを見て其好む所の者を取て妻となせり
3 And Jehovah said, My Spirit shall not always plead with Man; for he indeed is flesh; but his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.
ヱホバいひたまひけるは我靈永く人と爭はじ其は彼も肉なればなり然ど彼の日は百二十年なるべし
4 In those days were the giants on the earth, and also afterwards, when the sons of God had come in to the daughters of men, and they had borne [children] to them; these were the heroes, who of old were men of renown.
當時地にネピリムありき亦其後神の子輩人の女の所に入りて子女を生しめたりしが其等も勇士にして古昔の名聲ある人なりき
5 And Jehovah saw that the wickedness of Man was great on the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil continually.
ヱホバ人の惡の地に大なると其心の思念の都て圖維る所の恒に惟惡きのみなるを見たまへり
6 And Jehovah repented that he had made Man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart.
是に於てヱホバ地の上に人を造りしことを悔いて心に憂へたまへり
7 And Jehovah said, I will destroy Man, whom I have created, from the earth — from man to cattle, to creeping things, and to fowl of the heavens; for I repent that I have made them.
ヱホバ言たまひけるは我が創造りし人を我地の面より拭去ん人より獸昆蟲天空の鳥にいたるまでほろぼさん其は我之を造りしことを悔ればなりと
8 But Noah found favour in the eyes of Jehovah.
されどノアはヱホバの目のまへに恩を得たり
9 This is the history of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect amongst his generations: Noah walked with God.
ノアの傳は是なりノアは義人にして其世の完全き者なりきノア神と偕に歩めり
10 And Noah begot three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
ノアはセム、ハム、ヤペテの三人の子を生り
11 And the earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was full of violence.
時に世神のまへに亂れて暴虐世に滿盈ちたりき
12 And God looked upon the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted its way on the earth.
神世を視たまひけるに視よ亂れたり其は世の人皆其道をみだしたればなり
13 And God said to Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me, for the earth is full of violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
神ノアに言たまひけるは諸の人の末期わが前に近づけり其は彼等のために暴虐世にみつればなり視よ我彼等を世とともに剪滅さん
14 Make thyself an ark of gopher wood: [with] cells shalt thou make the ark; and pitch it inside and outside with pitch.
汝松木をもて汝のために方舟を造り方舟の中に房を作り瀝靑をもて其内外を塗るべし
15 And thus shalt thou make it: let the length of the ark be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
汝かく之を作るべし即ち其方舟の長は三百キユビト其濶は五十キユビト其高は三十キユビト
16 A light shalt thou make to the ark; and to a cubit high shalt thou finish it above. And the door of the ark shalt thou set in its side: [with] a lower, second, and third [story] shalt thou make it.
又方舟に導光牖を作り上一キユビトに之を作り終べし又方舟の戸は其傍に設くべし下牀と二階と三階とに之を作るべし
17 For I, behold, I bring a flood of waters on the earth, to destroy all flesh under the heavens in which is the breath of life: everything that is on the earth shall expire.
視よ我洪水を地に起して凡て生命の氣息ある肉なる者を天下より剪滅し絶ん地にをる者は皆死ぬべし
18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt go into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
然ど汝とは我わが契約をたてん汝は汝の子等と汝の妻および汝の子等の妻とともに其方舟に入るべし
19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every [sort] shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep [them] alive with thee: they shall be male and female.
又諸の生物總て肉なる者をば汝各其二を方舟に挈へいりて汝とともに其生命を保たしむべし其等は牝牡なるべし
20 Of fowl after their kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of each shall go in to thee, to keep [them] alive.
鳥其類に從ひ獸其類に從ひ地の諸の昆蟲其類に從ひて各二汝の所に至りて其生命を保つべし
21 And take thou of all food that is eaten, and gather [it] to thee, that it may be for food for thee and for them.
汝食はるる諸の食品を汝の許に取て之を汝の所に集むべし是即ち汝と是等の物の食品となるべし
22 And Noah did it; according to all that God had commanded him, so did he.
ノア是爲し都て神の己に命じたまひしごとく然爲せり
The World is Destroyed by Water
