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.
Deus se lembrou de Noé, de todos os animais e de todo o gado que estavam com ele no navio; e Deus fez um vento para passar sobre a terra. As águas baixaram.
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.
As fontes do fundo e as janelas do céu também foram paradas, e a chuva do céu foi contida.
3 The water on the earth gradually receded. 150 days after the flood began,
As águas recuaram continuamente da terra. Após o final de cento e cinqüenta dias as águas recuaram.
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.
O navio descansou no sétimo mês, no décimo sétimo dia do mês, nas montanhas 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.
As águas recuaram continuamente até o décimo mês. No décimo mês, no primeiro dia do mês, os cumes das montanhas eram visíveis.
6 40 days later, Noah opened the window that he had made in the side of the boat, and sent out a raven.
Ao final de quarenta dias, Noé abriu a janela do navio que ele havia feito,
7 The raven flew back and forth [to and from the boat] until the water was completely gone.
e enviou um corvo. Ele ia e voltava, até que as águas secassem da terra.
8 Then Noah sent out a dove to find out if the water had all receded on the ground.
Ele mesmo mandou uma pomba para ver se as águas eram abatidas da superfície do solo,
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.
mas a pomba não encontrou lugar para descansar o pé, e ela voltou para o navio, pois as águas estavam na superfície de toda a terra. Ele estendeu sua mão, pegou-a e a trouxe até ele no navio.
10 Noah waited seven more days. Then he sent the dove out of the boat again.
Ele esperou mais sete dias; e novamente ele enviou a pomba para fora do navio.
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.
A pomba voltou para ele à noite e, eis que na boca dela estava uma folha de oliveira recém colhida. Então Noé sabia que as águas tinham sido abatidas da terra.
12 Noah waited seven more days. Then he sent the dove out again, but this time it did not return to him.
Ele esperou mais sete dias, e enviou a pomba; e ela não voltou mais para ele.
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.
No primeiro ano, no primeiro mês, no primeiro dia do mês, seiscentos anos, as águas foram secas da terra. Noé retirou a cobertura do navio, e olhou. Ele viu que a superfície do solo estava seca.
14 By the 27th day of the next month, the ground was completely dry.
No segundo mês, no vigésimo sétimo dia do mês, a terra estava seca.
15 Then God said to Noah,
Deus falou com Noé, dizendo:
16 “Leave the boat, along with your wife and your sons and their wives.
“Saia do navio, você, sua esposa, seus filhos e as esposas de seus filhos com você.
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.”
Traga consigo todos os seres vivos que estão consigo de toda a carne, inclusive aves, gado e todos os répteis que se arrastam sobre a terra, para que se reproduzam abundantemente na terra, sejam fecundos e se multipliquem sobre a terra”.
18 So Noah left the boat, along with his wife and his sons and their wives.
Noé saiu com seus filhos, sua esposa e as mulheres de seus filhos com ele.
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.
Cada animal, cada coisa rasteira, e cada ave, qualquer coisa que se mova sobre a terra, depois que suas famílias, saíram do navio.
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.
Noé construiu um altar para Yahweh, e levou de cada animal limpo, e de cada ave limpa, e ofereceu ofertas queimadas 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.
Yahweh sentiu o cheiro agradável. Yahweh disse em seu coração: “Não amaldiçoarei mais o chão por causa do homem porque a imaginação do coração do homem é maligna desde sua juventude”. Não voltarei a golpear todos os seres vivos, como já 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.”
Enquanto a terra permanecer, o tempo da semente e da colheita, e o frio e o calor, e o verão e o inverno, e o dia e a noite não cessarão”.
