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,
No rĩrĩ, Ngai nĩaririkanire Nuhu o hamwe na nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka o na mahiũ marĩa mothe aarĩ namo thĩinĩ wa thabina, na agĩtũma rũhuho rũhurutane gũkũ thĩ, namo maaĩ makĩambĩrĩria kũhũa.
2 and the fountains of the deep and the network of the heavens are closed, and the shower is restrained from the heavens.
Nacio ithima cia kũrĩa kũriku na ihingo cia mũiyũro wa igũrũ ikĩhingwo, nayo mbura ĩgĩtiga kuura.
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.
Namo maaĩ magĩthiĩ makĩhũũaga, magĩthiraga thĩ. Thuutha wa matukũ igana na mĩrongo ĩtano-rĩ, maaĩ magĩkorwo manyihanyiihĩte,
4 And the Ark rests, in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;
naguo mũthenya wa ikũmi na mũgwanja wa mweri wa mũgwanja, thabina ĩkĩrũgama irĩma-inĩ cia 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.
Maaĩ macio magĩthiĩ na mbere na kũhũa o nginya mweri wa ikũmi, na mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa ikũmi-rĩ, tũcũmbĩrĩ twa irĩma tũkĩambĩrĩria kuoneka.
6 And it comes to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah opens the window of the Ark which he made,
Na thuutha wa matukũ mĩrongo ĩna, Nuhu akĩhingũra ndirica ĩrĩa aakĩte thabina-inĩ,
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.
na akĩrekereria ihuru na nja, narĩo rĩgĩtũũra rĩũmbũkaga kũndũ na kũndũ o nginya rĩrĩa maaĩ maahũire thĩ.
8 And he sends forth the dove from him to see whether the waters have been lightened from off the face of the ground,
Ningĩ akĩrekereria ndutura ĩthiĩ ĩkarore kana maaĩ nĩmahũĩte gũkũ thĩ.
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.
No ndutura ĩyo ndĩonire handũ ha kũũmba tondũ thĩ yothe yaiyũrĩtwo nĩ maaĩ; nĩ ũndũ ũcio ĩgĩcooka thabina-inĩ kũrĩ Nuhu. Nake agĩtambũrũkia guoko akĩmĩoya, akĩmĩtoonyia thabina thĩinĩ kũu we aarĩ.
10 And he stays yet seven more days, and adds to send forth the dove from the Ark;
Ningĩ agĩeterera matukũ mangĩ mũgwanja, na maathira akĩrekereria ndutura rĩngĩ yume nja ya thabina.
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.
Rĩrĩa ndutura ĩyo yamũcookereire hwaĩ-inĩ-rĩ, yakuuĩte ithangũ rĩa mũtamaiyũ na mũkanye wayo, rĩatuĩtwo o hĩndĩ ĩyo! Nuhu agĩkĩmenya atĩ maaĩ nĩmahũĩte thĩ.
12 And he stays yet seven more days, and sends forth the dove, and it did not add to return to him anymore.
Nuhu agĩeterera matukũ mangĩ mũgwanja, agĩcooka akĩrekereria ndutura ĩyo yume nja rĩngĩ, no hĩndĩ ĩno ndĩigana kũmũcookerera.
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.
Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya wa mbere, mweri wa mbere wa mwaka ũrĩa Nuhu akinyirie mĩaka magana matandatũ na ũmwe-rĩ, mũthenya ũcio nĩguo maaĩ maahũire biũ gũkũ thĩ. Nake Nuhu akĩeheria kĩrĩa kĩagitĩte thabina, agĩkĩona atĩ thĩ nĩyaniarĩte.
14 And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth has become dry.
Gũgĩkinya mũthenya wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na mũgwanja wa mweri wa keerĩ-rĩ, thĩ nĩyaniarĩte biũ.
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;
Ningĩ Ngai akĩĩra Nuhu atĩrĩ,
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;
“Uma thabina, wee na mũtumia waku, na ariũ aku na atumia ao.
17 and they have teemed in the earth, and been fruitful, and have multiplied on the earth.”
Hingũrĩra mĩthemba yothe ya ciũmbe iria irĩ muoyo icio ũrĩ nacio: irĩ nyoni, na nyamũ, na ciũmbe iria ithiiagĩra thĩ, nĩgeetha ciongerereke thĩ, na iciarane cingĩhe gũkũ thĩ.”
18 And Noah goes out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Nuhu akiuma thabina hamwe na ariũ ake, na mũtumia wake, na atumia a ariũ 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.
Nyamũ ciothe na ciũmbe ciothe iria ithiiagĩra thĩ, na nyoni ciothe, na kĩndũ o gĩothe gĩthiiagĩra gũkũ thĩ, ciothe cikiuma thabina, mũthemba o mũthemba.
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;
Nake Nuhu agĩakĩra Jehova kĩgongona, na akĩoya nyamũ imwe cia iria ciothe itarĩ thaahu, na nyoni iria itarĩ thaahu, akĩrutĩra Ngai igongona rĩa njino ho.
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;
Nake Jehova agĩkenio nĩ mũtararĩko ũcio, akiuga atĩrĩ na ngoro yake: “Ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaacooka kũruma thĩ rĩngĩ nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ, o na gũtuĩka merirĩria ma ngoro yake nĩ mooru kuuma ũnini-inĩ wake. Na ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaacooka kũniina ciũmbe ciothe iria irĩ muoyo ta ũguo njĩkĩte.
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.”
“Mahinda mothe marĩa thĩ ĩgũtũũra-rĩ, kũrĩkoragwo na hĩndĩ ya kũhaanda na ya magetha, na hĩndĩ ya heho na ya ũrugarĩ, na hĩndĩ ya themithũ na ya gathano, na mũthenya na ũtukũ.”
