Genesis 6
1 And it came to pass when men had begun to multiply on the face of the ground and daughters had been born to them,
人地の面に繁衍はじまりて女子之に生るるに及べる時
2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men! that they were, fair, —so they took to themselves wives of whomsoever they chose,
神の子等人の女子の美しきを見て其好む所の者を取て妻となせり
3 And Yahweh said—My spirit shall not rule in man to times age—abiding, for that, he also, is flesh, —Yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.
ヱホバいひたまひけるは我靈永く人と爭はじ其は彼も肉なればなり然ど彼の日は百二十年なるべし
4 The giants, were in the earth in those days, and also, after that, when the sons of God began to go in unto the daughters of men, and sons were born to them, the same, were the heroes that were from age-past times the men of renown.
當時地にネピリムありき亦其後神の子輩人の女の所に入りて子女を生しめたりしが其等も勇士にして古昔の名聲ある人なりき
5 Then Yahweh saw that great, was the wickedness of man in the earth, and that, every purpose of the devices of his heart, was only wicked all the day;
ヱホバ人の惡の地に大なると其心の思念の都て圖維る所の恒に惟惡きのみなるを見たまへり
6 and it grieved Yahweh, that he had made man in the earth, —and he took sorrow unto his heart.
是に於てヱホバ地の上に人を造りしことを悔いて心に憂へたまへり
7 And Yahweh said—I must wipe off man whom I created from off the face of the ground, from man unto beast unto creeping thing, and unto the bird of the heavens, —for I am grieved that I made them.
ヱホバ言たまひけるは我が創造りし人を我地の面より拭去ん人より獸昆蟲天空の鳥にいたるまでほろぼさん其は我之を造りしことを悔ればなりと
8 But, Noah, had found favour in the eyes, of Yahweh.
されどノアはヱホバの目のまへに恩を得たり
9 These, are the generations of Noah, Noah, was, a righteous man blameless, in his generations, —with God, did Noah walk.
ノアの傳は是なりノアは義人にして其世の完全き者なりきノア神と偕に歩めり
10 And Noah begat three sons, —Shem, Ham and Japheth.
ノアはセム、ハム、ヤペテの三人の子を生り
11 And the earth corrupted itself before God, —and the earth was filled with violence,
時に世神のまへに亂れて暴虐世に滿盈ちたりき
12 And God beheld the earth, and lo! it had corrupted itself, —surely all flesh had corrupted its way, on the earth.
神世を視たまひけるに視よ亂れたり其は世の人皆其道をみだしたればなり
13 So God said unto Noah: the end of all flesh, hath come in before me, for, filled, is the earth with violence, because of them, —behold me, then, destroying them with the earth.
神ノアに言たまひけるは諸の人の末期わが前に近づけり其は彼等のために暴虐世にみつればなり視よ我彼等を世とともに剪滅さん
14 Make for thee an ark of timbers of gopher, rooms, shalt thou make with the ark, —and thou shalt cover it within and without with pitch.
汝松木をもて汝のために方舟を造り方舟の中に房を作り瀝青をもて其内外を塗るべし
15 And, this, is how thou shalt make it, —three hundred cubits, the length of the ark, fifty cubits, the breadth thereof, and thirty cubits the height thereof.
汝かく之を作るべし即ち其方舟の長は三百キユビト其濶は五十キユビト其高は三十キユビト
16 A place for light, shalt thou make to the ark and to a cubit, shalt thou finish it upwards, and the opening of the ark—in the side thereof, shalt thou put, —with lower, second and third stories, shalt thou make it.
又方舟に導光牖を作り上一キユビトに之を作り終べし又方舟の戸は其傍に設くべし下牀と二階と三階とに之を作るべし
17 And, I, behold me! bringing in the flood—even waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh wherein is the spirit of life, from under the heavens, —everything that is in the earth, shall cease to breathe:
視よ我洪水を地に起して凡て生命の氣息ある肉なる者を天下より剪滅し絶ん地にをる者は皆死ぬべし
18 therefore will I establish my covenant with thee, —and thou shalt enter into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons’ wives, with thee.
然ど汝とは我わが契約をたてん汝は汝の子等と汝の妻および汝の子等の妻とともに其方舟に入るべし
19 Moreover of all the living creatures of all flesh—two of each, shalt thou bring into the ark to keep alive with thee, —male and female, shall they be.
又諸の生物總て肉なる者をば汝各其二を方舟に挈へいりて汝とともに其生命を保たしむべし其等は牝牡なるべし
20 Of the bird after its kind and of the beast after its kind, [and] of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of each, shall come in unto thee. for keeping alive.
鳥其類に從ひ獸其類に從ひ地の諸の昆蟲其類に從ひて各二汝の所に至りて其生命を保つべし
21 But thou, take to thee of all food that is eaten, and gather it unto thee, —and it shall be for thee and for them for food.
汝食はるる諸の食品を汝の許に取て之を汝の所に集むべし是即ち汝と是等の物の食品となるべし
22 And Noah did [so], —according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
ノア是爲し都て神の己に命じたまひしごとく然爲せり
The World is Destroyed by Water
