Genesis 7
1 And the Lord God said to Noe, Enter you and all your family into the ark, for you have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
Derpaa sagde HERREN til Noa: »Gaa ind i Arken med hele dit Hus, thi dig har jeg fundet retfærdig for mine Øjne i denne Slægt.
2 And of the clean cattle take in to you sevens, male and female, and of the unclean cattle pairs male and female.
Af alle rene Dyr skal du tage syv Par, Han og Hun, og af alle urene Dyr eet Par, Han og Hun,
3 And of clean flying creatures of the sky sevens, male and female, and of all unclean flying creatures pairs, male and female, to maintain seed on all the earth.
ligeledes af Himmelens Fugle syv Par, Han og Hun, for at de kan forplante sig paa hele Jorden.
4 For yet seven days [having passed] I bring rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will blot out every offspring which I have made from the face of all the earth.
Thi om syv Dage vil jeg lade det regne paa Jorden i fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter og udslette alle Væsener, som jeg har gjort, fra Jordens Flade.«
5 And Noe [did] all things whatever the Lord God commanded him.
Og Noa gjorde ganske som HERREN havde paalagt ham.
6 And Noe was six hundred years old when the flood of water was upon the earth.
Noa var 600 Aar gammel, da Vandfloden kom over Jorden.
7 And then went in Noe and his sons and his wife, and his sons' wives with him into the ark, because of the water of the flood.
Noa gik med sine Sønner, sin Hustru og sine Sønnekoner ind i Arken for at undslippe Flodens Vande.
8 And of clean flying creatures and of unclean flying creatures, and of clean cattle and of unclean cattle, and of all things that creep upon the earth,
De rene og de urene Dyr, Fuglene og alt, hvad der kryber paa Jorden,
9 pairs went in to Noe into the ark, male and female, as God commanded Noe.
gik Par for Par ind i Arken til Noa, Han og Hundyr, som Gud havde paalagt Noa.
10 And it came to pass after the seven days that the water of the flood came upon the earth.
Da nu syv Dage var omme, kom Flodens Vande over Jorden;
11 In the six hundredth year of the life of Noe, in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, on this day all the fountains of the abyss were broken up, and the flood-gates of heaven were opened.
i Noas 600de Leveaar paa den syttende Dag i den anden Maaned, den Dag brast det store Verdensdybs Kilder, og Himmelens Sluser aabnedes,
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
og Regnen faldt over Jorden i fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter.
13 On that very day entered Noe, Sem, Cham, Japheth, the sons of Noe, and the wife of Noe, and the three wives of his sons with him into the ark.
Selv samme Dag gik Noa ind i Arken og med ham hans Sønner Sem, Kam og Jafet, hans Hustru og hans tre Sønnekoner
14 And all the wild beasts after their kind, and all cattle after their kind, and every reptile moving itself on the earth after its kind, and every flying bird after its kind,
og desuden alle vildtlevende Dyr efter deres Arter, alt Kvæg efter dets Arter, alt Kryb paa Jorden efter dets Arter og alle Fugle efter deres Arter, alle Fugle, alt, hvad der har Vinger;
15 went in to Noe into the ark, pairs, male and female of all flesh in which is the breath of life.
af alt Kød, som har Livsaande, gik Par for Par ind i Arken til Noa;
16 And they that entered went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded Noe, and the Lord God shut the ark outside of him.
Han og Hundyr af alt Kød gik ind, som Gud havde paabudt, og HERREN lukkede efter ham.
17 And the flood was upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and the water abounded greatly and bore up the ark, and it was lifted on high from off the earth.
Da kom Vandfloden over Jorden i fyrretyve Dage, og Vandet steg og løftede Arken, saa den hævedes over Jorden.
18 And the water prevailed and abounded exceedingly upon the earth, and the ark was borne upon the water.
Og Vandet steg og stod højt over Jorden, og Arken flød paa Vandet;
19 And the water prevailed exceedingly upon the earth, and covered all the high mountains which were under heaven.
og Vandet steg og steg over Jorden, saa de højeste Bjerge under Himmelen stod under Vand;
20 Fifteen cubits upwards was the water raised, and it covered all the high mountains.
femten Alen stod Vandet over dem, saa Bjergene stod helt under Vand.
21 And there died all flesh that moved upon the earth, of flying creatures and cattle, and of wild beasts, and every reptile moving upon the earth, and every man.
Da omkom alt Kød, som rørte sig paa Jorden, Fugle, Kvæg, vildtlevende Dyr og alt Kryb paa Jorden og alle Mennesker;
22 And all things which have the breath of life, and whatever was on the dry land, died.
alt, i hvis Næse det var Livets Aande, alt, hvad der var paa det faste Land, døde.
23 And [God] blotted out every offspring which was upon the face of the earth, both man and beast, and reptiles, and birds of the sky, and they were blotted out from the earth, and Noe was left alone, and those with him in the ark.
Saaledes udslettedes alle Væsener, der var paa Jordens Flade, Mennesker, Kvæg, Kryb og Himmelens Fugle; de udslettedes af Jorden, og tilbage blev kun Noa og de, der var hos ham i Arken.
24 And the water was raised over the earth an hundred and fifty days.
Vandet steg over Jorden i 150 Dage.
The Great Flood
