< Genesis 8 >
1 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that [was] with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;
Men, Bondye vin chonje Noe ansanm ak tout bèt bwa ak zannimo domestik ki te avè l' nan batiman an. Bondye fè yon van soufle sou latè, epi dlo yo konmanse bese.
2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
Sous dlo ki nan fon lanmè a te sispann bay dlo. Syèl la sispann bay dlo tou. Lapli sispann tonbe.
3 And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated.
Dlo yo menm t'ap bese, yo t'ap bese piti piti. Se sou sansenkant (150) jou dlo yo te konmanse bese.
4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
Sou sis mwa disèt jou, batiman an fè tè sou tèt mòn Arara yo.
5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth [month], on the first [day] of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
Dlo yo t'ap bese toujou jouk sou dizyèm mwa a. Sou premye jou dizyèm mwa a, tèt mòn yo parèt.
6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:
Karant jou apre sa, Noe louvri fennèt li te fè nan batiman an.
7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
Li lage yon kònèy. Kònèy la soti. li ale vini, li ale vini jouk dlo a te fin cheche nèt sou latè.
8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;
Apre sa, li lage yon pijon, pou l' wè si dlo a te fin bese sou tè a.
9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters [were] on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
Men, pijon an pa t' jwenn kote pou l' poze. Li tounen vin jwenn Noe nan batiman an, paske te gen dlo sou tout latè toujou. Noe lonje men l', li pran pijon an, li fè l' antre nan batiman an ankò.
10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;
Li tann sèt jou pase. Apre sa, li lage pijon an yon dezyèm fwa, li fè l' soti nan batiman an.
11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth [was] an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
Vè aswè konsa, pijon an tounen vin jwenn li. Men, fwa sa a, li te gen yon fèy oliv tout vèt nan bèk li. Konsa, Noe vin konnen dlo a te bese sou tout latè.
12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.
Li tann sèt jou pase anvan li lage pijon an ankò. Fwa sa a menm pijon an pa t' tounen vin jwenn li ankò.
13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first [month], the first [day] of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.
Se konsa, lè Noe te gen sisan ennan (601 an), nan premye jou premye mwa lanne jwif yo, dlo a te fin bese nèt sou latè. Noe dekouvri batiman an, li voye je l' gade, li wè tout tè a te chèch.
14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.
Sou vennsetyèm jou dezyèm mwa a, tè a te fin chèch nèt.
15 And God spake unto Noah, saying,
Lè sa a, Bondye di Noe:
16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons’ wives with thee.
-Soti nan batiman an, ou menm, madanm ou, pitit ou yo ansanm ak madanm pitit ou yo.
17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that [is] with thee, of all flesh, [both] of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
Fè tout bèt yo soti tout ansanm avèk ou, zwazo yo, zannimo domestik yo, tout bèt k'ap trennen sou vant yo. Se pou yo fè pitit, fè anpil pitit pou mete sou tè a ankò.
18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him:
Se konsa Noe soti nan batiman an ansanm ak madanm li, pitit li yo ak madanm pitit li yo.
19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, [and] whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark.
tout bèt bwa yo, tout zannimo domestik yo, tout bèt k'ap trennen sou vant yo, tout zwazo yo, yo tout yo soti nan batiman an tou.
20 And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
Noe bati yon lotèl. Li pran yonn nan chak kalite bèt ak zwazo ki bon pou moun manje, li touye yo, li boule yo nèt sou lotèl la.
21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart [is] evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
Lè Bondye pran bon sant lan, sa te fè l' plezi. Li di nan kè l' -Mwen p'ap janm bay tè a madichon ankò poutèt sa lèzòm fè, paske depi yo jenn, se move lide ase ki nan kè yo. Mwen p'ap janm detwi tout bèt vivan yo ankò, jan mwen sot fè l' la.
22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
Toutotan latè a la, va gen yon lè pou plante, yon lè pou rekòlte, va gen sezon fredi ak sezon chalè, va gen sezon sèk, ak sezon lapli, va gen lajounen, va gen lannwit. Wi, toutotan latè a la, bagay sa yo p'ap janm sispann.
