Genesis 8
1 But God (did not forget/thought) about Noah and all the wild animals and all the kinds of livestock that were with him in the boat. So one day God sent a wind to blow across the earth, and the wind caused the water [to begin] to recede.
E lembrou-se Deus de Noé, e de toda a besta, e de todo o animal, e de toda a rez que com elle estava na arca: e Deus fez passar um vento sobre a terra, e aquietaram-se as aguas.
2 God caused the water that was under the earth to stop bursting forth, and he caused the floodgates of water from the sky to close so that it stopped raining.
Cerraram-se tambem as fontes do abysmo, e as janellas dos céus, e a chuva dos céus deteve-se.
3 The water on the earth gradually receded. 150 days after the flood began,
E as aguas tornaram de sobre a terra continuamente, e ao cabo de cento e cincoenta dias as aguas minguaram.
4 (on the 17th day of the seventh month [of that year/late in March]), the boat came to rest on one of the mountains in the Ararat region.
E a arca repousou, no setimo mez, no dia dezesete do mez, sobre os montes de Ararat.
5 The water continued to recede until, on the first day of the tenth month [of that year], the tops of other mountains became visible.
E foram as aguas indo e minguando até ao decimo mez: no decimo mez, no primeiro dia do mez, appareceram os cumes dos montes.
6 40 days later, Noah opened the window that he had made in the side of the boat, and sent out a raven.
E aconteceu que, ao cabo de quarenta dias, abriu Noé a janella da arca que tinha feito.
7 The raven flew back and forth [to and from the boat] until the water was completely gone.
E soltou um corvo, que saiu, indo e voltando, até que as aguas se seccaram de sobre a terra.
8 Then Noah sent out a dove to find out if the water had all receded on the ground.
Depois soltou uma pomba, a vêrse as aguas tinham minguado de sobre a face da terra.
9 But the dove did not find any place to perch, so it flew back to Noah in the boat, because there was still water all over the surface of the earth. So Noah reached out his hand and took the dove back inside the boat.
A pomba porém não achou repouso para a planta do seu pé, e voltou a elle para a arca; porque as aguas estavam sobre a face de toda a terra: e elle estendeu a sua mão, e tomou-a, e metteu-a comsigo na arca.
10 Noah waited seven more days. Then he sent the dove out of the boat again.
E esperou ainda outros sete dias, e tornou a enviar a pomba fóra da arca.
11 This time the dove returned to him in the evening and, [surprisingly], in its beak there was a leaf from an olive tree that the dove had just plucked. Then Noah knew that the water had truly receded from the surface of the ground.
E a pomba voltou a elle sobre a tarde; e eis, arrancada, uma folha de oliveira no seu bico: e conheceu Noé que as aguas tinham minguado sobre a terra.
12 Noah waited seven more days. Then he sent the dove out again, but this time it did not return to him.
Então esperou ainda outros sete dias; e enviou fóra a pomba, mas não tornou mais a elle.
13 Noah was now 601 years old. By the first day of the first month [of the Jewish year], the water had completely drained away from the ground. Noah removed the covering on top of the ark, and he was surprised to see that the surface of the ground was drying.
E aconteceu que no anno seiscentos e um, no mez primeiro, no primeiro dia do mez, as aguas se seccaram de sobre a terra: então Noé tirou a cobertura da arca, e olhou, e eis que a face da terra estava enxuta.
14 By the 27th day of the next month, the ground was completely dry.
E no segundo mez, aos vinte e sete dias do mez, a terra estava secca.
15 Then God said to Noah,
Então fallou Deus a Noé, dizendo:
16 “Leave the boat, along with your wife and your sons and their wives.
Sae da arca, tu, e tua mulher, e teus filhos, e as mulheres de teus filhos comtigo.
17 Bring out with you all the birds, the animals, and all the creatures that scurry across the ground, in order that they can spread all over the earth and become very numerous.”
Todo o animal que está comtigo, de toda a carne, de ave, e de gado, e de todo o reptil que se roja sobre a terra traze fóra comtigo; e povôem abundantemente a terra, e fructifiquem, e se multipliquem sobre a terra.
18 So Noah left the boat, along with his wife and his sons and their wives.
Então saiu Noé, e seus filhos, e sua mulher, e as mulheres de seus filhos com elle,
19 And every kind of creature, including all those that scurry across the ground, all the birds, every creature that moves on the earth, left the boat. They left the boat in groups of their own species.
Todo o animal, todo o reptil, e toda a ave, e tudo o que se move sobre a terra, conforme as suas familias, saiu para fóra da arca.
20 Then Noah built a (stone altar/place for offering sacrifices) to Yahweh. Then he took some of the animals that Yahweh had said were acceptable as sacrifices and killed them. Then he burned them whole on the altar.
E edificou Noé um altar ao Senhor; e tomou de todo o animal limpo, e de toda a ave limpa, e offereceu holocaustos sobre o altar.
21 When Yahweh smelled the pleasant odor, he was pleased with the sacrifice. Then he said to himself, “I will never again devastate everything on the earth because of the sinful things people do. Even though everything that people think is evil from the time they are young, I will not destroy all the living creatures again, as I did this time.
E o Senhor cheirou o suave cheiro, e disse o Senhor em seu coração: Não tornarei mais a amaldiçoar a terra por causa do homem; porque a imaginação do coração do homem é má desde a sua meninice, nem tornarei mais a ferir todo o vivente, como fiz.
22 As long as the earth exists, each year there will be seasons for planting seeds and seasons for harvesting crops. Each year there will be times when it is cold and times when it is hot, summer and winter (OR, rainy season and dry season). Each day there will be daytime and nighttime.”
Emquanto a terra durar, sementeira e sega, e frio e calor, e verão e inverno, e dia e noite, não cessarão.
