< Genesis 8 >

1 And he remembered God Noah and every animal and all the livestock which [were] with him in the ark and he made to pass God a wind over the earth and they subsided the waters.
Mais Dieu s’étant souvenu de Noé, et de toutes les bêtes sauvages, et de tous les animaux domestiques qui étaient avec lui dans l’arche, fit venir un vent sur la terre, et les eaux diminuèrent.
2 And they were shut up [the] springs of [the] deep and [the] floodgates of the heavens and it was restrained the rain from the heavens.
Et les sources de l’abîme et les cataractes du ciel furent fermées, et les pluies du ciel furent arrêtées.
3 And they turned back the waters from on the earth going and turning back and they decreased the waters from [the] end of fifty and one hundred day[s].
Et les eaux se retirèrent de dessus la terre, allant et revenant, et elles commencèrent à décroître après cent cinquante jours.
4 And it rested the ark in the month seventh on [the] seven-teen day of the month on [the] mountains of Ararat.
Et l’arche s’arrêta au septième mois, le vingt-septième jour du mois, sur les montagnes de l’Arménie.
5 And the waters they were going and decreasing until the month tenth in the tenth [month] on [day] one of the month they were seen [the] tops of the mountains.
Cependant les eaux allèrent en décroissant jusqu’au dixième mois; car au dixième mois, le premier jour du mois parurent les sommets des montagnes.
6 And it was from [the] end of forty day[s] and he opened Noah [the] window of the ark which he had made.
Et lorsque quarante jours furent passés, Noé, ouvrant la fenêtre qu’il avait faite à l’arche, lâcha le corbeau,
7 And he sent out the raven and it went out continuously and returned until dried up the waters from on the earth.
Qui sortit et ne revint plus, jusqu’à ce que les eaux fussent desséchées sur la terre.
8 And he sent out the dove from with him to see ¿ were they abated the waters from on [the] surface of the ground.
Il lâcha aussi la colombe, pour voir si les eaux n’étaient plus sur la surface de la terre.
9 And not found the dove a resting place for [the] sole of foot its and it returned to him into the ark for water [was] on [the] surface of all the earth and he stretched out hand his and he took it and he brought it to him into the ark.
Mais comme elle ne trouva pas où poser son pied, elle revint vers lui dans l’arche, parce que les eaux étaient encore sur toute la terre: et il tendit la main, et l’ayant prise, il la remit dans l’arche.
10 And he waited again seven days other and he repeated to send out the dove from the ark.
Et ayant attendu encore sept autres jours, il envoya de nouveau la colombe hors de l’arche.
11 And it came to him the dove to [the] time of evening and there! a leaf of olive freshly plucked [was] in mouth its and he knew Noah that they were abated the waters from on the earth.
Mais elle vint à lui vers le soir, portant à son bec un rameau d’olivier ayant des feuilles vertes. Noé comprit donc que les eaux n’étaient plus sur la face de la terre.
12 And he waited again seven days other and he sent out the dove and not it repeated to return to him again.
Il attendit cependant sept autres jours, et il envoya la colombe qui ne revint plus vers lui.
13 And it was in one and six hundred year in the first [month] on [day] one of the month they were dried up the waters from on the earth and he removed Noah [the] covering of the ark and he saw and there! they were dried up [the] surface of the ground.
Ainsi l’an six cent un, au premier mois, le premier jour du mois, les eaux diminuèrent sur la terre, et Noé, ouvrant le toit de l’arche, vit que la surface de la terre était séchée.
14 And in the month second on [the] seven and twenty day of the month was dry the earth.
Au second mois, le vingt-septième jour du mois, la terre fut toute séchée.
15 And he spoke God to Noah saying.
Alors Dieu parla à Noé, disant:
16 Go out from the ark you and wife your and sons your and [the] wives of sons your with you.
Sors de l’arche, toi et ta femme, tes fils et les femmes de tes fils.
17 Every animal which [is] with you some of all flesh among the bird[s] and among the livestock and among every creeping thing which creeps on the earth (bring out *Q(k)*) with you and they will swarm on the earth and they will be fruitful and they will multiply on the earth.
Tous les animaux qui sont auprès de toi, de toute chair, tant parmi les volatiles que parmi les quadrupèdes et tous les reptiles qui rampent sur la terre, fais-les sortir avec toi, et entrez sur la terre: Croissez et vous y multipliez.
18 And he went out Noah and sons his and wife his and [the] wives of sons his with him.
Noé sortit donc, et ses fils, et sa femme, et les femmes de ses fils avec lui.
19 Every animal every creeping thing and every bird every creeping [thing] on the earth to families their they went out from the ark.
Et tous les animaux aussi, les quadrupèdes et les reptiles qui rampent sur la terre, chacun selon son espèce, sortirent de l’arche.
20 And he built Noah an altar to Yahweh and he took some of all - the livestock clean and some of every bird clean and he offered up burnt offerings on the altar.
Or Noé bâtit un autel au Seigneur; et prenant de tous les quadrupèdes et de tous les oiseaux purs, il les offrit en holocauste sur l’autel.
21 And he smelled Yahweh [the] odor of soothing and he said Yahweh to heart his not I will repeat to curse again the ground for sake of humankind for [the] inclination of [the] heart of humankind [is] evil since youth his and not I will repeat again to strike down every living [thing] just as I have done.
Et le Seigneur en sentit l’odeur suave, et dit: Je ne maudirai plus la terre à cause des hommes; car les sentiments et les pensées du cœur de l’homme sont inclinés au mal dès sa jeunesse; je ne frapperai donc plus toute âme vivante, comme j’ai fait.
22 Again all [the] days of the earth seed and harvest and cold and heat and summer and winter and day and night not they will cease.
Durant tous les jours de la terre, des semailles et de la moisson, le froid et la chaleur, Fêté et l’hiver, le jour et la nuit ne cesseront point.
