Genesis 8
1 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark: and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters were assuaged;
Na ka mahara te atua ki a Noa, ki nga mea ora katoa me nga kararehe katoa ano hoki i a ia i roto i te aaka: na ka mea te Atua kia tika atu tetahi hau i runga i te whenua, a ka mariri nga wai.
2 The fountains also of the deep, and the windows of heaven were stopped; and the rain from heaven was restrained.
A ka tutakina atu nga matapuna o te rire me nga matapihi o te rangi, ka whakamutua ano hoki te ua o te rangi.
3 And the waters returned from off the earth, gradually returning; and the waters were abated after the end of the hundred and fifty days.
Na ka hoki haere nga wai i runga i te whenua: a i te paunga o nga ra kotahi rau e rima tekau kua iti iho nga wai.
4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
A i tau iho te aaka i te whitu o nga marama, i te kotahi tekau ma whitu o nga ra o te marama, ki runga ki nga maunga o Ararata.
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;
Me te heke haere tonu o nga wai, a taea noatia te tekau o nga marama: no te tekau o nga marama, no te ra tuatahi o te marama, ka kitea nga tihi o nga maunga.
6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made;
A, i te mutunga o nga ra e wha tekau, na ka uakina e Noa te matapihi o te aaka i hanga e ia:
7 And he sent forth a raven which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
A ka tukua atu e ia he raweni, a, ko tona rerenga atu, ka kopiko atu, ka kopiko mai, a maroke noa nga wai i runga i te whenua.
8 He then sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground.
Na ka tukua atu ano e ia he kukupa, kia kitea ai kua iti iho ranei nga wai i runga i te mata o te whenua;
9 But the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him unto the ark; for there was water on the face of the whole earth; then he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her into the ark.
A kihai i kitea e te kukupa tetahi taunga iho mo te takahanga o tona waewae, a ka hoki mai ki a ia, ki roto ki te aaka: i runga hoki nga wai i te mata o te whenua katoa: na ka totoro atu tona ringa, a hopukia ana ia, tangohia ana mai ki a ia ki r oto ki te aaka.
10 And he stayed yet another seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.
Na ka tatari ano ia, e whitu atu nga ra; a ka tukua atu ano e ia te kukupa i roto i te aaka:
11 And the dove came in to him at the time of the evening; and, lo, an olive-leaf plucked off was in her mouth; so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
A i te ahiahi ka rere mai te kukupa ki a ia; na i roto i tona waha he rau oriwa, he mea korari mai; a ka mohio a Noa kua iti iho nga wai i runga i te whenua.
12 And he stayed yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; but she returned not again unto him any more.
A ka tatari ano ia, e whitu atu ano nga ra; a tukua atu ana e ia te kukupa; a kihai tena i hoki mai ano ki a ia i muri iho.
13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, that 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.
A no te ono rau ma tahi o nga tau, no te marama tuatahi, no te ra tuatahi o te marama, i maroke atu ai nga wai i runga i te whenua: na ka hurahia atu e Noa te hipoki o te aaka, a ka kite, na, kua maroke te mata o te whenua.
14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth perfectly dried up.
A no te rua o nga marama, no te rua tekau ma whitu o nga ra o te marama, i maroke ai te whenua.
15 And God spoke unto Noah, saying,
Na ka korero te Atua ki a Noa, ka mea,
16 Go forth from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
Puta mai koe i te aaka, koutou tahi ko tau wahine, ko au tama, me nga wahine a au tama.
17 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, bring forth with thee; that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
Kia puta tahi mai me koe nga mea ora katoa i a koe na, nga kikokiko katoa, nga manu, nga kararehe, me nga mea ngoki katoa e ngokingoki ana i runga i te whenua; a kia whakatuputupu ratou ki runga ki te whenua, kia hua, kia ngahue ki runga ki te w henua.
18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him.
Na ka puta a Noa, ratou tahi ko ana tama, ko tana wahine, me nga wahine a ana tama:
19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their families, went forth out of the ark.
Ka puta hoki i roto i te aaka nga kirehe katoa, nga mea ngokingoki katoa, nga manu katoa, me nga mea ngoki katoa i runga i te whenua o ia ahua, o ia ahua.
20 And Noah built an altar unto the Lord, and he took of every clean cattle, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt-offerings on the altar.
Na ka hanga e Noa tetahi aata ma Ihowa, a ka tango ia i etahi o nga kararehe pokekore katoa, o nga manu pokekore katoa hoki, a whakaekea tinanatia ana e ia ki runga ki te aata.
21 And the Lord smelled the sweet savour; and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for the sake of man; although 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.
Na ka hongi a Ihowa i roto i tona ngakau, E kore ahau e kanga ano i te oneone a muri ake nei mo nga mahi a te tangata; otiia he kino nga tokonga ake o te ngakau o te tangata, o tona taitamarikitanga ake ano; e kore ano hoki ahau e patu i nga mea ora katoa a muri ake nei, e penei me tenei meatanga aku.
22 All the while the earth remaineth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.
E mau ana te whenua, e kore e mutu te po rui me te po kokoti, te maeke me te mahana, te raumati me te hotoke, te ao me te po.
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
