< Genesis 7 >

1 And the Lord said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy household into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
Waaqayyos Nohiin akkana jedhe; “Ani akka ati dhaloota kana keessaa na duratti qajeelaa taate argeeraatii maatii kee hundumaa wajjin doonicha seeni.
2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee seven pairs of each, the male and his female; and of beasts that are not clean two, the male and his female.
Bineensa qulqulluu gosa hunda keessaa kormaa fi dhalaa cimdii torba, bineensa qulqulluu hin taʼin gosa hunda keessaa cimdii tokko,
3 Also of the fowls of the heaven, seven pairs of each, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
gosa simbirrootaa hunda keessaa illee akka sanyiin lafa hunda irratti hafee jiraatuuf kormaa fi dhalaa cimdii torba fudhadhuu seeni.
4 For after only seven days more, I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights: and I will blot out every living substance that I have made from off the face of the earth.
Ani guyyaa torba booddee halkan afurtamaa fi guyyaa afurtama bokkaa nan roobsa; uumama jiraataa ani mataan koo uume hunda lafa irraa nan haxaaʼa.”
5 And Noah did all just as the Lord had commanded him.
Nohis waan Waaqayyo isa ajaje hunda ni hojjete.
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
Yeroo bishaan badiisaa dhufetti Nohi nama waggaa dhibba jaʼa ture.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
Nohii fi ilmaan isaa, niitii isaatii fi niitonni ilmaan isaa bishaan badiisaa jalaa baʼuuf doonii seenan.
8 Of the clean beasts, and of the beasts that are not clean, and of the fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
Bineensonni qulqulluu fi kan qulqulluu hin taʼin, simbirroonnii fi uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan hundi, cimdii cimdiidhaan,
9 One pair of each went in unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
kormaa fi dhalaan gara Nohi dhufanii akkuma Waaqni Nohiin ajajetti doonicha seenan.
10 And it came to pass, after the seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
Guyyaa torba booddee bishaan badiisaa lolaʼee lafa guute.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on this same day, were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
Bara jireenya Nohi waggaa dhibba jaʼaffaa keessa, jiʼa lammaffaatti, jiʼa sana keessaas guyyaa kudha torbaffaatti burqaawwan tuujuba gurguddaa hundi ni dhoʼan; foddaawwan bishaan samiis ni banaman.
12 And the rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
Bokkaanis guyyaa afurtamaa fi halkan afurtama lafatti roobe.
13 On that self-same day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
Guyyuma sana Nohii fi ilmaan isaa, Seem, Haamii fi Yaafet, niitii isaatii fi niitota ilmaan isaa sadanii wajjin doonicha seenan.
14 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird, every thing that hath wings.
Isaanis bineensota hunda, akkuma gosa isaaniitti, horii hunda akkuma gosa isaaniitti, uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan hundaa fi simbirroota hunda akkuma gosa isaaniitti, waan qoochoo qabu hundas of faana fudhatanii seenan.
15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, one pair of each, of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.
Uumamawwan hafuura jireenyaa of keessaa qaban hundinuus cimdii cimdiidhaan gara Nohi dhufanii doonicha seenan.
16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and then the Lord shut him in.
Bineensonni akkuma Waaqni Nohin ajajetti dooniitti galan kormaa fi dhalaa uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii hundaa turan; ergasii immoo Waaqayyo alaan itti cufe.
17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bore up the ark, and it was lifted up above the earth.
Bishaan badiisaas ittuma fufee guyyaa afurtamaaf lafa irra ture; bishaan sunis dabalaa deemee doonii sana lafa irraa ol kaase.
18 And the waters prevailed, and increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark floated along upon the face of the waters.
Bishaanichis ol kaʼee lafa irratti akka malee baayʼate; dooniin sunis bishaanicha irra deeme.
19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high mountains that are under the whole heavens were covered.
Bishaanichis akka malee ol kaʼaa deemee tulluuwwan samii jala jiran hunda haguuge.
20 Fifteen cubits above them did the waters prevail; and the mountains were [thus] covered.
Bishaanichi dhundhuma kudha shan caalaa ol kaʼuudhaan tulluuwwan dhokse.
21 And all flesh perished that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man.
Uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyiin lafa irra jiraatan hundi jechuunis, simbirroonni, horiin, bineensonni, uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan hundii fi namoonni hundi ni barbadaaʼan.
22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that were on the dry land, died.
Wanni lafa gogaa irra jiraatu kan funyaan isaatiin hafuura jireenyaa baafatu hundinuu ni duʼe.
23 And it swept off every living substance which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and creeping things, and fowls of the heaven; and they were swept from the earth; and Noah only was left, together with those that were with him in the ark.
Uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyiin lafa irra jiraatan hundinuu ni haxaaʼaman; namnii fi horiin, uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqanii fi simbirroonni samii, lafa irraa ni haxaaʼaman. Nohii fi warra isa wajjin doonii keessa turan qofattu hafe.
24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth one hundred and fifty days.
Bishaan sunis bultii dhibba tokkoo fi shantama lafa irra lolaʼe.
