Genesis 8
1 And God remembered Noe, and all the wild beasts, and all the cattle, and all the birds, and all the reptiles that creep, as many as were with him in the ark, and God brought a wind upon the earth, and the water stayed.
Nzambe akanisaki Noa mpe banyama nyonso oyo ezalaki elongo na ye kati na masuwa, atindaki mopepe na mokili mpe mayi ekitaki.
2 And the fountains of the deep were closed up, and the flood-gates of heaven, and the rain from heaven was withheld.
Bitima ya se mpe maninisa ya likolo ekangamaki mpe mvula etikaki konoka.
3 And the water subsided, and went off the earth, and after an hundred and fifty days the water was diminished, and the ark rested in the seventh month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.
Mayi ekomaki kolongwa moke-moke likolo ya mabele, mpe sima na mikolo nkama moko na tuku mitano, mayi ekitaki.
4 And the water continued to decrease until the tenth month.
Na mokolo ya zomi na sambo ya sanza ya sambo, masuwa esemaki likolo ya bangomba Ararati.
5 And in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the heads of the mountains were seen.
Mayi ezalaki kokoba kokita kino na sanza ya zomi. Na mokolo ya liboso ya sanza yango, basonge ya bangomba emonanaki.
6 And it came to pass after forty days Noe opened the window of the ark which he had made.
Sima na mikolo tuku minei, Noa afungolaki lininisa ya masuwa oyo asalaki
7 And he sent forth a raven; and it went forth and returned not until the water was dried from off the earth.
mpe abimisaki yanganga. Yanganga yango ezalaki kokende mpe kozonga kino tango mayi ekawukaki na mokili.
8 And he sent a dove after it to see if the water had ceased from off the earth.
Mpe lisusu, Noa abimisaki ebenga mpo na kotala soki mayi ekawuki na mokili.
9 And the dove not having found rest for her feet, returned to him into the ark, because the water was on all the face of the earth, and he stretched out his hand and took her, and brought her to himself into the ark.
Kasi ebenga ezwaki esika ya kotia matambe na yango te, pamba te mayi ezalaki na etando nyonso ya mokili. Boye, ezongaki na masuwa epai ya Noa. Noa abimisaki loboko, azwaki ebenga mpe akotisaki yango kati na masuwa.
10 And having waited yet seven other days, he again sent forth the dove from the ark.
Azelaki mikolo sambo mpe abimisaki lisusu ebenga libanda ya masuwa.
11 And the dove returned to him in the evening, and had a leaf of olive, a sprig in her mouth; and Noe knew that the water had ceased from off the earth.
Tango ebenga ezongaki epai na ye na pokwa, ememaki lokasa ya olive ya mobesu na monoko na yango. Boye, Noa asosolaki ete mayi ekiti na mokili.
12 And having waited yet seven other days, he again sent forth the dove, and she did not return to him again any more.
Azelaki lisusu mikolo sambo mosusu, mpe abimisaki ebenga. Kasi ebenga ezongaki lisusu te.
13 And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year of the life of Noe, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the water subsided from off the earth, and Noe opened the covering of the ark which he had made, and he saw that the water had subsided from the face of the earth.
Na mokolo ya liboso na sanza ya liboso, tango Noa akokisaki mibu nkama motoba na moko ya mbotama, mayi ekawukaki na mokili; Noa afungolaki masuwa na likolo na yango mpe amonaki ete mabele ekawuki.
14 And in the second month the earth was dried, on the twenty-seventh day of the month.
Na mokolo ya tuku mibale na sambo ya sanza ya mibale, mabele ekawukaki penza.
15 And the Lord God spoke to Noe, saying,
Boye, Nzambe alobaki na Noa:
16 Come out from the ark, you and your wife and your sons, and your sons' wives with you.
« Bima na masuwa elongo na mwasi na yo, mpe bana na yo ya mibali elongo na basi na bango.
17 And all the wild beasts as many as are with you, and all flesh both of birds and beasts, and every reptile moving upon the earth, bring forth with you: and increase you and multiply upon the earth.
Bimisa mpe bikelamu oyo ezali elongo na yo: bandeke, banyama mpe bikelamu nyonso oyo etambolaka na libumu, mpo ete ebotana mpe ekoma ebele kati na mokili. »
18 And Noe came forth, and his wife and his sons, and his sons' wives with him.
Boye, Noa abimaki libanda elongo na bana na ye ya mibali, mwasi na ye mpe basi ya bana na ye.
19 And all the wild beasts and all the cattle and every bird, and every reptile creeping upon the earth after their kind, came forth out of the ark.
Banyama nyonso, bikelamu nyonso oyo etambolaka na libumu mpe bandeke nyonso, bikelamu nyonso oyo etambolaka na mokili, ebimaki na masuwa na molongo kolanda lolenge na yango.
20 And Noe built an altar to the Lord, and took of all clean beasts, and of all clean birds, and offered a whole burnt offering upon the altar.
Noa atongaki etumbelo mpo na Yawe mpe azwaki ndambo ya banyama mpe bandeke ezanga mbindo, abonzelaki yango Yawe lokola mbeka ya kotumba.
21 And the Lord God smelled a smell of sweetness, and the Lord God having considered, said, I will not any more curse the earth, because of the works of men, because the imagination of man is intently bent upon evil things from his youth, I will not therefore any more strike all living flesh as I have done.
Boye, Yawe ayokaki solo kitoko mpe amilobelaki: « Nakolakela lisusu mabele mabe te likolo ya moto, pamba te wuta bomwana ya moto, motema ya moto elukaka kaka makambo mabe; nakoboma lisusu te bikelamu nyonso ya bomoi ndenge nawuti kosala.
22 All the days of the earth, seed and harvest, cold and heat, summer and spring, shall not cease by day or night.
Na tango nyonso oyo mokili ekozala, tango ya kolona mpe tango ya kobuka, tango ya malili mpe tango ya molunge, tango ya mvula mpe tango ya elanga, tango ya moyi mpe tango ya butu, ekozanga te. »
