Genesis 8
1 And God remembered Noah, and all the wild animals, and all the tame animals, and all the flying creatures, and all the crawling creatures that were with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters began to recede.
Ary Andriamanitra nahatsiaro an’ i Noa mbamin’ ny bibi-dia rehetra ary ny biby fiompy rehetra, izay niara-nitoetra taminy tao anatin’ ny sambo-fiara; ary Andriamanitra nampandeha rivotra eran’ ny tany, ka dia nihena ny rano.
2 And the fountains of the deep and the floodgates of the sky were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained.
Ary tampina ny loharanon’ ny lalina sy ny varavaran’ ny lanitra, ka nitsahatra ilay ranonorana nivatravatra avy tany an-danitra.
3 And the waters receded steadily from the land. And after the end of one hundred fifty days the waters had decreased significantly.
Ary nihena niandalana niala tamin’ ny tany ny rano; ary rehefa afaka dimam-polo amby zato andro, dia efa nihena ny rano.
4 And in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ship came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
Dia nipetraka teo amin’ ny tendrombohitra any Ararata ny sambo-fiara tamin’ ny andro fahafito ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana fahafito.
5 The waters receded continually to the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains became visible.
Ary ny rano dia mbola nihena niandalana hatramin’ ny volana fahafolo; tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana fahafolo dia niseho ny tampon’ ny tendrombohitra.
6 It happened at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ship which he had made,
Ary rehefa afaka efa-polo andro, dia novohan’ i Noa ny varavarankelin’ ny sambo-fiara izay efa nataony.
7 and he sent forth a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters had dried up from the earth.
Dia namoaka goaika anankiray izy, ary niverimberina mandra-paharitry ny rano tamin’ ny tany iny.
8 Then he sent forth a dove from it, to see if the waters had abated from the surface of the ground,
Dia namoaka voromailala anankiray izay teo aminy izy, hizahany na efa kely ny rano tambonin’ ny tany, na tsia.
9 but the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him into the ship; for the waters were on the surface of the whole earth. He put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ship.
Fa tsy hitan’ ilay voromailala izay hipetrahan’ ny faladiany, dia niverina tamin’ i Noa tao anatin’ ny sambo-fiara izy, satria mbola nisy rano tambonin’ ny tany rehetra; ary Noa naninjitra ny tànany ka nandray sy nampiditra azy ho ao aminy tao anatin’ ny sambo-fiara.
10 And he waited yet another seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ship.
Ary mbola niandry hafitoana koa izy; dia namoaka ilay voromailala tamin’ ny sambo-fiara indray izy.
11 The dove came back to him at evening, and, look, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off. So Noah knew that the waters had abated from the earth.
Dia niditra teo aminy ilay voromailala nony hariva ny andro; ary, indro, nisy ravin’ oliva maitso teo am-bavany; izany no nahafantaran’ i Noa fa efa kely ny rano tambonin’ ny tany.
12 He stayed yet another seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she did not return to him any more.
Ary mbola niandry hafitoana indray izy, dia namoaka ilay voromailala; ary tsy niverina teo aminy intsony iny.
13 And it happened in the six hundred first year of Noah's life, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters had dried up from the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ship and looked out. And look, the surface of the ground was dry.
Ary tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana voalohany tamin’ ny taona fahiraika amby enin-jato, dia ritra ny rano teo ambonin’ ny tany; ary nanaisotra ny tafon’ ny sambo-fiara Noa ka nijery, ary, indro, efa maina ny tany.
14 In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
Ary tamin’ ny andro fahafito amby roa-polo tamin’ ny volana faharoa, dia maina ny tany.
15 God spoke to Noah, saying,
Ary Andriamanitra dia niteny tamin’ i Noa ka nanao hoe:
16 "Go out of the ship, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons' wives with you.
Mivoaha amin’ ny sambo-fiara ianao sy ny vadinao aman-janakao ary ny vinantonao vavy miaraka aminao.
17 Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh, of flying creatures, and animals, and every creature that crawls on the earth, that they may swarm on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth."
Ary ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra, izay eo aminao, avy tamin’ ny nofo rehetra, dia ny vorona sy ny biby fiompy sy ny biby rehetra izay mandady na mikisaka amin’ ny tany, dia ento mivoaka miaraka aminao; ary aoka hiteraka be eny ambonin’ ny tany sy ho maro anaka ary hihabetsaka eny ambonin’ ny tany ireny.
18 And Noah went forth, with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives with him.
Dia nivoaka Noa mbamin’ ny vadiny aman-janany ary ny vinantonivavy niaraka taminy;
19 And every wild animal, and every tame animal, and every flying creature, and every creature that crawls on the earth, after their families, went out of the ship.
Ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra sy ny biby rehetra izay mandady na mikisaka ary ny vorona rehetra mbamin’ izay rehetra mihetsiketsika eny ambonin’ ny tany dia samy nivoaka avy tao amin’ ny sambo-fiara araka ny karazany.
20 Noah built an altar to God, and took of every clean animal, and of every clean flying creature, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
Ary Noa dia nanorina alitara ho an’ i Jehovah; ary ny biby madio rehetra sy ny vorona madio rehetra dia nanalany ka nataony fanatitra odorana teo ambonin’ ny alitara.
21 And God smelled the pleasing aroma, and God said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground because of humankind, even though the inclination of his heart is evil from his youth, nor will I again destroy every living thing, as I have done.
Dia nandre ny hanitra ankasitrahana Jehovah, ka hoy Izy tam-pony: Tsy mba hanozona ny tany intsony noho ny amin’ ny olona Aho; fa ny fisainan’ ny fon’ ny olona dia ratsy hatramin’ ny fahazazany; ary tsy mba handringana ny velona rehetra intsony Aho tahaka izay nataoko.
22 While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."
Raha mbola maharitra koa ny tany, dia tsy hanam-pitsaharana ny taom-pamafazana sy ny taom-pijinjana, ary ny hatsiaka sy ny hafanana ary ny fahavaratra sy ny ririnina, ary ny andro sy ny alina.
