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.
Te Lamatualain nda liliiꞌ Noh se ro basa banda mana sia ofai a. Naa de, Ana fee anin fuu nareꞌe oe mandaliꞌ a.
2 And the fountains of the deep and the floodgates of the sky were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained.
Ana o tatana basa oe mataꞌ sia raefafoꞌ a, ma naloeꞌ udan mia lalai a.
3 And the waters receded steadily from the land. And after the end of one hundred fifty days the waters had decreased significantly.
Boe ma oeꞌ a namakura. Basa fula lima ma, oeꞌ a nda naruꞌ naeꞌ sa ena.
4 And in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ship came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
Ndaa no fula ka hitu na, fai sanahulu hitu ma, ofai a hara sia leteꞌ naruꞌ sa ata, nara na Ararat.
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.
Basa ma, oeꞌ a reꞌe nakandoo. Fula ka sanahulu na, fai ka esa na ma, mbuku-leteꞌ ra tonggo nara sou.
6 It happened at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ship which he had made,
Seli fai haa nulu ma, Noh soi ofai a jandela na esa.
7 and he sent forth a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters had dried up from the earth.
Ana mboꞌi mbui kaaꞌ esa. Mbuiꞌ naa natambele neu-nema losa oe mandali monaeꞌ a reꞌe tebꞌe ena. Ana nda baliꞌ ofai neu sa.
8 Then he sent forth a dove from it, to see if the waters had abated from the surface of the ground,
Boe ma, Noh mboꞌi mbui lunda esa, fo nae nahine oeꞌ a reꞌe tebꞌe, do feꞌe hokoꞌ.
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.
Te huu oeꞌ a feꞌe ndule raefafoꞌ, de mbuiꞌ a nda hambu mamana teteeꞌ sa. De ana baliꞌ ofai neu. Noh loo lima na, de simbo nala baliꞌ mbuiꞌ a ofai rala neu.
10 And he waited yet another seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ship.
Noh nahati fai hitu fai, dei de ana mboꞌi seluꞌ mbuiꞌ a.
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.
Bꞌobꞌo naa ma, mbuiꞌ a baliꞌ seluꞌ nisiꞌ Noh, nendi saitun rooꞌ esa, fo ana feꞌe bito nala naa. Dei de, Noh bubꞌuluꞌ oeꞌ a meti tetebꞌes ena.
12 He stayed yet another seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she did not return to him any more.
Ana nahati fai hitu fai, de mboꞌi seluꞌ mbui lunda a. Te ia naa, mbuiꞌ a nda baliꞌ sa.
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.
Noh too natun nee esa, ndaa no fai ka esa fula ka esa na ma, oeꞌ a meti tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ ena. Boe ma, Noh soi ofai a jandela na, de mete rereoꞌ ma nita rae a madꞌa ena.
14 In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
Fula ka rua na, fai ka sanahulu hitu na ma, rae a madꞌa tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ ena.
15 God spoke to Noah, saying,
Basa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ no Noh nae,
16 "Go out of the ship, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons' wives with you.
“Noh! Basa nggi onda mia ofai a leo.
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."
Soi basa banda ra dea reu! Soi basa banda neꞌeboiꞌ, banda fui, banda mana nodꞌoꞌ, no mbuiꞌ ra. Naa fo, basa se boe ramahefu, fo rasofe raefafoꞌ ia.”
18 And Noah went forth, with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives with him.
Basa de, Noh no sao na, ma ana nara, ma ana feto feu nara, dea reu mia ofai a. Basa banda ra o, dea reu, esa-esaꞌ no nonoo na.
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.
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.
Basa naa ma, Noh lutu mbatu mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ fee LAMATUALAIN. Noh haꞌi nala banda beꞌe esaꞌ, mia basa banda fo bisa tao dadꞌi tutunu-hohotuꞌ. Ana mbau hala se, ma tunu se sia mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ a, fo dadꞌi tutunu-hohotuꞌ fee LAMATUALAIN.
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.
LAMATUALAIN hae nala tutunu-hohotuꞌ a maꞌafo meni na ma, rala Na namahoꞌo. De Ana duꞌa nae, “Mia faiꞌ ia, Au nda afiꞌ huku-doki raefafoꞌ a huu atahori deꞌulaka na sa. Onaꞌ mae ara duꞌa akaꞌ a deꞌulakaꞌ o, Au nda afiꞌ tao ulutu basa masodꞌa ra sa, onaꞌ Au taoꞌ basaꞌ a ena.
22 While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."
Mete ma raefafoꞌ a feꞌe sia, naa, fula-faiꞌ ia ra basa se laoꞌ rakandoo, tungga dala nara. Fula-fai sela-nggariꞌ no fula-fai etu-oruꞌ, fula-fai maꞌasufuꞌ no fula-fai matobꞌiꞌ, fula-fai relo-ai no fula-fai udꞌa-oeꞌ, ma rereloꞌ no tetembaꞌ, basa se lao tungga dala nara.”
