Genesis 8
1 And God remembers Noah, and every living thing, and all the livestock which [are] with him in the Ark, and God causes a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subside,
Tsono Mulungu anakumbukira Nowa ndi nyama zonse zakuthengo ndi ziweto zimene anali nazo mu chombo. Yehova anatumiza mphepo pa dziko lapansi ndipo madzi anaphwera.
2 and the fountains of the deep and the network of the heavens are closed, and the shower is restrained from the heavens.
Tsono akasupe a madzi ambiri a pansi pa dziko ndi zitseko za madzi a kumwamba zinatsekedwa, ndipo mvula inaleka kugwa.
3 And the waters return from off the earth, going on and returning; and the waters are lacking at the end of one hundred and fifty days.
Madzi amaphwabe pa dziko lapansi. Pakutha pa masiku 150, madzi anatsika,
4 And the Ark rests, in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;
ndipo pa tsiku la 17 la mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri, chombo chija chinakakhazikika pa mapiri a Ararati.
5 and the waters have been going and decreasing until the tenth month; in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, the heads of the mountains appeared.
Madzi anapitirira kuphwa mpaka mwezi wa khumi, ndipo pa tsiku loyamba la mwezi wa khumiwo msonga za mapiri zinayamba kuonekera.
6 And it comes to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah opens the window of the Ark which he made,
Patapita masiku makumi anayi, Nowa anatsekula zenera limene anapanga mʼchombomo
7 and he sends forth the raven, and it goes out, going out and turning back until the drying of the waters from off the earth.
natulutsa khwangwala, koma khwangwalayo ankangowuluka uku ndi uku mpaka madzi anawuma pa dziko lapansi.
8 And he sends forth the dove from him to see whether the waters have been lightened from off the face of the ground,
Kenaka anatulutsa nkhunda kuti aone ngati madzi aphwa pa dziko.
9 and the dove has not found rest for the sole of her foot, and she turns back to him, to the Ark, for waters [are] on the face of all the earth, and he puts out his hand, and takes her, and brings her in to him, into the Ark.
Koma nkhunda sinapeze poti nʼkutera chifukwa panali madzi ponseponse pa dziko lapansi. Choncho inabwerera kwa Nowa mʼchombo. Nowa anatulutsa dzanja lake kunja ndi kutenga nkhundayo kuyibwezera mʼchombo mmene iye anali.
10 And he stays yet seven more days, and adds to send forth the dove from the Ark;
Choncho anadikirabe masiku ena asanu ndi awiri ndipo anatulutsanso nkhundayo mʼchombo muja.
11 and the dove comes to him at evening, and behold, an olive leaf [is] torn off in her mouth; and Noah knows that the waters have been lightened from off the earth.
Pamene nkhunda inabwerera madzulo ake, inali itanyamula tsamba laliwisi la mtengo wa olivi. Motero Nowa anadziwa kuti madzi aphwadi pa dziko lapansi.
12 And he stays yet seven more days, and sends forth the dove, and it did not add to return to him anymore.
Iye anadikira masiku ena asanu ndi awiri ndipo anatumizanso nkhunda ija, koma nthawi imeneyi sinabwererenso kwa iye.
13 And it comes to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, the waters have been dried from off the earth; and Noah turns aside the covering of the Ark, and looks, and behold, the face of the ground has been dried.
Pofika tsiku loyamba la mwezi woyamba wa chaka chimene Nowa anakwanitsa zaka 601, madzi anawuma pa dziko lapansi. Ndipo Nowa anachotsa denga la chombo ndipo anaona kuti kunja kwawuma.
14 And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth has become dry.
Pokwana tsiku la 27 la mwezi wachiwiri dziko lapansi linawumiratu.
15 And God speaks to Noah, saying, “Go out from the Ark, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons’ wives with you;
Tsono Mulungu anawuza Nowa kuti,
16 every living thing that [is] with you, of all flesh, among bird, and among livestock, and among every creeping thing which is creeping on the earth, bring out with you;
“Iwe, mkazi wako, ana ako pamodzi ndi akazi awo tulukani mʼchombomo.
17 and they have teemed in the earth, and been fruitful, and have multiplied on the earth.”
Tulutsa zamoyo zonse zili ndi iwe, mbalame, nyama ndi zokwawa zonse kuti ziswane ndi kuchulukana pa dziko lapansi.”
18 And Noah goes out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him;
Nowa anatuluka pamodzi ndi ana ake aamuna, mkazi wake ndi akazi a ana ake.
19 every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird; every creeping thing on the earth, after their families, have gone out from the Ark.
Nyama zonse, zokwawa zonse, mbalame zonse, chilichonse choyenda pa dziko lapansi, zinatuluka mʼchombo motsogozana monga mwa mitundu yawo.
20 And Noah builds an altar to YHWH, and takes from every clean beast and from every clean bird, and causes burnt-offerings to ascend on the altar;
Pamenepo Nowa anamanga guwa lansembe la Yehova ndipo anatengako mtundu uliwonse wa nyama zoti nʼkudya ndi mbalame zoti nʼkudya naperekapo nsembe yopsereza.
21 and YHWH smells the refreshing fragrance, and YHWH says to His heart, “I do not continue to disfavor the ground because of man anymore, though the imagination of the heart of man [is] evil from his youth; and I do not continue to strike all living anymore, as I have done;
Yehova atamva fungo labwino anati mu mtima mwake: “Sindidzatembereranso nthaka chifukwa cha munthu, ngakhale kuti maganizo a mu mtima mwake ndi oyipa kuyambira ubwana wake. Ndipo sindidzawononganso zolengedwa zonse zamoyo monga ndachitiramu.
22 during all [the] days of the earth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night never cease.”
“Nthawi zonse mmene dziko lapansi lidzakhalire, nthawi yodzala ndi nthawi yokolola yozizira ndi yotentha, dzinja ndi chilimwe, usana ndi usiku, sizidzatha.”
