< 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.
Pea naʻe manatu ʻae ʻOtua kia Noa, mo e meʻa moʻui kotoa pē, mo e fanga manu kotoa pē ʻaia naʻe ʻi he vaka mo ia: pea naʻe pule ʻe he ʻOtua ke ʻalu atu ʻae matangi ʻi he funga ʻo māmani, pea naʻe matuku ai ʻae ngaahi vai;
2 And the fountains of the deep were closed up, and the flood-gates of heaven, and the rain from heaven was withheld.
Naʻe tāpuni foki ʻae ngaahi matavai ʻoe moana mo e ngaahi matavai ʻoe langi, pea naʻe taʻofi ʻae ʻuha mei he langi;
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.
Pea naʻe fakaʻaʻau ke matuku ʻae ngaahi vai mei māmani: pea ʻi he fakaʻosi ʻae ʻaho ʻe teau ma nimangofulu kuo siʻi ʻae ngaahi vai.
4 And the water continued to decrease until the tenth month.
Pea naʻe toka ʻae vaka ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻAlalate, ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu ma fitu ʻoe māhina.
5 And in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the heads of the mountains were seen.
Pea naʻe fakasiʻisiʻi maʻuaipē ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo aʻu ki hono hongofulu ʻoe [māhina]: naʻe ha hake ʻae tumutumu ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga ʻi hono hongofulu māhina, ʻi he ʻuluaki [ʻaho ]ʻoe māhina.
6 And it came to pass after forty days Noe opened the window of the ark which he had made.
Pea ʻi he hili ange ʻae ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu, naʻe toʻo ʻe Noa ʻae matapā ʻoe vaka ʻaia naʻa ne ngaohi:
7 And he sent forth a raven; and it went forth and returned not until the water was dried from off the earth.
Pea naʻa ne tukuange ha leveni, ʻaia naʻe feʻaluʻaki, kaeʻoua ke matuʻu ʻae ngaahi vai mei he funga ʻo māmani.
8 And he sent a dove after it to see if the water had ceased from off the earth.
Naʻa ne tukuange foki ha lupe meiate ia, ke vakai pe kuo matuku ʻae ngaahi vai mei he funga ʻoe kelekele;
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.
Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he lupe ha tuʻuʻanga ki hono ʻaofi vaʻe, pea naʻe foki ia kiate ia ki he vaka, he naʻe ʻi he funga ʻo māmani kotoa ʻae ngaahi vai: pea naʻe mafao atu ʻe ia hono nima, ʻo toʻo pea ʻomi ia kiate ia ki he vaka.
10 And having waited yet seven other days, he again sent forth the dove from the ark.
Pea naʻe toe tatali ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu; pea ne toe tukuange ʻae lupe mei he vaka;
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.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae lupe kiate ia ʻi he efiafi; pea vakai, kuo ʻi hono ngutu ʻae lauʻi ʻolive kuo ne pakiʻi: pea toki ʻilo ai ʻe Noa kuo matuku ʻae ngaahi vai mei he māmani.
12 And having waited yet seven other days, he again sent forth the dove, and she did not return to him again any more.
Pea toe tatali ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu; pea tuku atu ai ʻae lupe; pea naʻe ʻikai toe foki mai ia kiate ia.
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.
Pea ʻi he hoko ki hono onongeau ma taha taʻu, ʻi he ʻuluaki [māhina], ʻi he ʻuluaki [ʻaho ]ʻoe māhina, naʻe matuʻu ai ʻae ngaahi vai mei he fonua; pea naʻe hiki ʻe Noa ʻae ʻufiʻufi ʻoe vaka, ʻo sio, pea vakai, kuo mōmoa ʻae funga ʻoe kelekele.
14 And in the second month the earth was dried, on the twenty-seventh day of the month.
Pea naʻe mōmoa ʻae fonua ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina, ʻi hono uofulu ma fitu ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina.
15 And the Lord God spoke to Noe, saying,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua kia Noa, ʻo pehē,
16 Come out from the ark, you and your wife and your sons, and your sons' wives with you.
“ʻAlu atu mei he vaka, ʻa koe, mo ho uaifi, mo ho ngaahi foha, mo e ngaahi uaifi ʻo ho ngaahi foha mo koe.
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.
Omi mo koe ʻae ngaahi meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate koe, ʻi he kakano kotoa pē, mo e fanga manupuna, mo e fanga manu, pea mo e meʻa totolo kotoa pē ʻoku ngaolo ʻi he fonua; koeʻuhi kenau fanafanau ʻo lahi ʻi he fonua pea tupu, pea fakatokolahi ʻi māmani.”
18 And Noe came forth, and his wife and his sons, and his sons' wives with him.
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Noa, mo hono ngaahi foha, mo hono uaifi, mo e ngaahi uaifi ʻo hono ngaahi foha mo ia:
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.
Naʻe ʻalu atu mei he vaka, ʻi honau faʻahinga, ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē, mo e ngaahi meʻa totolo kotoa pē, mo e fanga manupuna kotoa pē, mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku totolo ʻi he fonua.
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.
Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Noa ha ʻesifeilaulau kia Sihova; pea naʻa ne toʻo mei he fanga manu maʻa kotoa pē, pea mei he fanga manupuna naʻe maʻa, pea ʻohake ai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu ʻi he ʻesifeilaulau.
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.
Pea naʻe nanamu ʻa Sihova ki hono ngangatu lelei, pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova ʻi hono finangalo, “ʻE ʻikai te u toe fakamalaʻiaʻi ʻae fonua koeʻuhi ko e tangata; he ʻoku kovi ʻae ngaōʻi ʻoe loto ʻoe tangata mei heʻene kei siʻi; pea ʻe ʻikai te u toe taaʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ʻo hangē ko ia kuo u fai.
22 All the days of the earth, seed and harvest, cold and heat, summer and spring, shall not cease by day or night.
Lolotonga ʻae tuʻu ʻa māmani, ʻe ʻikai tuku ʻae tō taʻu mo e ututaʻu, mo e momoko mo e pupuha, mo e faʻahitaʻu mafana mo e faʻahitaʻu momoko, mo e ʻaho mo e pō.”
