Genesis 6
1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters were born unto them,
А кад се људи почеше множити на земљи, и кћери им се народише.
2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all that they chose.
Видећи синови Божји кћери човечије како су лепе узимаше их за жене које хтеше.
3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not strive with man for ever, for that he also is flesh: yet shall his days be an hundred and twenty years.
А Господ рече: Неће се дух мој до века прети с људима, јер су тело; нека им још сто двадесет година.
4 The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them: the same were the mighty men which were of old, the men of renown.
А беше тада дивова на земљи; а и после, кад се синови Божји састајаху са кћерима човечијим, па им оне рађаху синове; то беху силни људи, од старине на гласу.
5 And the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
И Господ видећи да је неваљалство људско велико на земљи, и да су све мисли срца њиховог свагда само зле,
6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
Покаја се Господ што је створио човека на земљи, и би му жао у срцу.
7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the ground; both man, and beast, and creeping thing, and fowl of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
И рече Господ: Хоћу да истребим са земље људе, које сам створио, од човека до стоке и до ситне животиње и до птица небеских; јер се кајем што сам их створио.
8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
Али Ноје нађе милост пред Господом.
9 These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, [and] perfect in his generations: Noah walked with God.
Ово су догађаји Нојеви: Ноје беше човек праведан и безазлен свог века; по вољи Божјој свагда живљаше Ноје.
10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
И роди Ноје три сина: Сима, Хама и Јафета.
11 And the earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
А земља се поквари пред Богом, и напуни се земља безакоња.
12 And God saw the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
И погледа Бог на земљу, а она беше покварена; јер свако тело поквари пут свој на земљи.
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
И рече Бог Ноју: Крај сваком телу дође преда ме, јер напунише земљу безакоња; и ево хоћу да их затрем са земљом.
14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
Начини себи ковчег од дрвета гофера, и начини прегратке у ковчегу; и затопи га смолом изнутра и споља.
15 And this is how thou shalt make it: the length of the ark three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
И начини га овако; у дужину нека буде триста лаката, у ширину педесет лаката, и у висину тридесет лаката;
16 A light shalt thou make to the ark, and to a cubit shalt thou finish it upward; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.
Пусти доста светлости у ковчег; и кров му сведи озго од лакта; и удари врата ковчегу са стране; и начини га на три боја: доњи, други и трећи.
17 And I, behold, I do bring the flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; every thing that is in the earth shall die.
Јер ево пустићу потоп на земљу да истребим свако тело у коме има жива душа под небом; шта је год на земљи све ће изгинути.
18 But I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons’ wives with thee.
Али ћу с тобом учинити завет свој: и ући ћеш у ковчег ти и синови твоји и жена твоја и жене синова твојих с тобом.
19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.
И од свега живог, од сваког тела, узећеш у ковчег по двоје, да сачуваш у животу са собом, а мушко и женско нека буде.
20 Of the fowl after their kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.
Од птица по врстама њиховим, од стоке по врстама њеним, и од свега што се миче на земљи по врстама његовим, од свега по двоје нека уђе с тобом, да их сачуваш у животу.
21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.
И узми са собом свега што се једе, и чувај код себе, да буде хране теби и њима.
22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
И Ноје учини, како му заповеди Бог, све онако учини.
The World is Destroyed by Water
