Genesis 7
1 And Yahweh said to Noah, Enter thou and all thy house, into the ark, —for, thee, have I seen righteous before me, in this generation.
Derpå sagde HERREN til Noa: Gå ind i Arken med hele dit Hus, thi dig har jeg fundet retfærdig for mine Øjne i denne Slægt.
2 Of all the clean beasts, shalt thou take to thee by sevens, a male and his female, —and, of the beasts that are not clean, shall be two a male and his female.
Af alle rene Dyr skal du tage syv Par, Han og Hun, og af alle urene Dyr eet Par, Han og Hun,
3 Also of the bird of the heavens, by sevens, male and female, —to keep alive a seed on the face of all the earth.
ligeledes af Himmelens Fugle syv Par, Han og Hun, for at de kan forplante sig på hele Jorden.
4 For in seven days more, I, am sending rain on the earth, forty days and forty nights, —so will I wipe out all the living things which I have made, from off the face of the ground.
Thi om syv Dage vil jeg lade det regne på Jorden i fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter og udslette alle Væsener, som jeg har gjort, fra Jordens Flade."
5 And Noah did, —according to all that Yahweh commanded him.
Og Noa gjorde ganske som HERREN havde pålagt ham.
6 Now, Noah, was six hundred years old, —when, the flood, came, even waters on the earth.
Noa var 600 År gammel, da Vandfloden kom over Jorden.
7 So Noah entered, and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives with him into the ark, —from before the waters of the flood,
Noa gik med sine Sønner, sin Hustru og sine Sønnekoner ind i Arken for at undslippe Flodens Vande.
8 Of the beasts that were clean, and of the beasts that were not clean, —and of the birds, and everything that creepeth on the ground,
De rene og de urene Dyr, Fuglene og alt, hvad der kryber på Jorden,
9 two and two, went they in unto Noah, into the ark male and female, —as God commanded Noah.
gik Par for Par ind i Arken til Noa, Han og Hundyr, som Gud havde pålagt Noa.
10 And it came to pass, in the seven days, —that the waters of the flood, came on the earth.
Da nu syv Dage var omme, kom Flodens Vande over Jorden;
11 In the six hundredth year, the year of the life of Noah. in the second month on the seventeenth day of the month on this day, were burst open all the fountains of the great roaring deep, and the windows of the heavens, were set open.
i Noas 600de Leveår på den syttende Dag i den anden Måned, den Dag brast det store Verdensdybs Kilder, og Himmelens Sluser åbnedes,
12 (And it came to pass that the heavy rain was on the earth, —forty days and forty nights.)
og Regnen faldt over Jorden i fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter.
13 On this selfsame day, entered Noah, and Shem and Ham and Japheth. Noah’s sons, —and Noah’s wife, and his sons’ three wives with them into the ark:
Selvsamme Dag gik Noa ind i Arken og med ham hans Sønner Sem, Kam og Jafet, hans Hustru og hans tre Sønnekoner
14 they, and all the wild-beasts after their kind and all the tame-beasts after their kind, and all the creeping things that creep on the earth after their kind, —and all the birds after their kind, every bird of every wing.
og desuden alle vildtlevende Dyr efter deres Arter, alt Kvæg efter dets Arter, alt Kryb på Jorden efter dets Arter og alle Fugle efter deres Arter, alle Fugle, alt, hvad der har Vinger;
15 So they entered in unto Noah, into the ark, —two and two of all flesh, wherein was the spirit of life.
af alt Kød, som har Livsånde, gik Par for Par ind i Arken til Noa;
16 And, they that entered, male and female of all flesh, entered, as God commanded him, —and Yahweh shut him in round about.
Han og Hundyr af alt Kød gik ind, som Gud havde påbudt, og HERREN lukkede efter ham.
17 And it came to pass, that the flood was forty days on the earth, —and the waters increased and bare up the ark, and it was lifted high above the earth,
Da kom Vandfloden over Jorden i fyrretyve Dage, og Vandet steg og løftede Arken, så den hævedes over Jorden.
18 And the waters prevailed and increased greatly, on the earth, —and the ark went its way on the face of the waters.
Og Vandet steg og stod højt over Jorden, og Arken flød på Vandet;
19 Yea the waters, prevailed very greatly, on the earth, —so that all the high mountains became covered, that were under all the heavens:
og Vandet steg og steg over Jorden, så de højeste Bjerge under Himmelen stod under Vand;
20 fifteen cubits upwards, prevailed the waters, so that the mountains became covered.
femten Alen stod Vandet over dem, så Bjergene stod helt under Vand.
21 And all flesh ceased to breathe that moved on the earth, of birds and of tame-beasts and of wild-beasts, and of all the swarming things that swarm on the earth, —and all mankind.
Da omkom alt Kød, som rørte sig på Jorden, Fugle, Kvæg, vildtlevende Dyr og alt Kryb på Jorden og alle Mennesker;
22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life of all that were on the dry ground died.
alt, i hvis Næse det var Livets Ånde, alt, hvad der var på det faste Land, døde.
23 Thus was wiped out all that existed on the face of the ground, from man unto beast unto creeping thing, and unto the bird of the heavens, thus were they wiped out from the earth, —so that there was left—only Noah and they that were with him in the ark.
Således udslettedes alle Væsener, der var på Jordens Flade, Mennesker, Kvæg, Kryb og Himmelens Fugle; de udslettedes af Jorden, og tilbage blev kun Noa og de, der var hos ham i Arken.
24 Thus prevailed the waters on the earth, —a hundred and fifty days.
Vandet steg over Jorden i 150 Dage.
The Great Flood
