< Genesis 6 >

1 It came about when mankind began to multiply on the earth and daughters were born to them,
И бысть егда начаша человецы мнози бывати на земли, и дщери родишася им:
2 that the sons of God saw that the daughters of mankind were attractive. They took for themselves wives, any of them that they chose.
видевше же сынове Божии дщери человечи, яко добры суть, пояша себе жены от всех, яже избраша.
3 Yahweh said, “My spirit will not remain in mankind forever, for they are flesh. They will live 120 years.”
И рече Господь Бог: не имать Дух Мой пребывати в человецех сих во век, зане суть плоть: будут же дние их лет сто двадесять.
4 Giants were on the earth in those days, and also afterward. This happened when the sons of God married daughters of men, and they had children with them. These were the mighty men of old, men of renown.
Исполини же бяху на земли во дни оны: и потом, егда вхождаху сынове Божии к дщерем человеческим, и раждаху себе: тии бяху исполини, иже от века, человецы именитии.
5 Yahweh saw that the wickedness of mankind was great in the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of their hearts was only evil continually.
Видев же Господь Бог, яко умножишася злобы человеков на земли: и всяк помышляет в сердцы своем прилежно на злая во вся дни:
6 Yahweh regretted that he had made mankind on the earth, and it grieved him to his heart.
и помысли Бог, яко сотвори человека на земли, и размысли.
7 So Yahweh said, “I will wipe away mankind whom I have created from the surface of the earth; both mankind and the larger animals, and creeping things and birds of the heavens, for I am sorry that I have made them.”
И рече Бог: потреблю человека, егоже сотворих, от лица земли, от человека даже до скота, и от гад даже до птиц небесных: зане размыслих, яко сотворих я.
8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of Yahweh.
Ное же обрете благодать пред Господем Богом.
9 These were the events concerning Noah. Noah was a righteous man, and blameless among the people of his time. Noah walked with God.
Сия же бытия Ноева: Ное человек праведен совершен сый в роде своем, Богу угоди Ное.
10 Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
Роди же Ное три сыны, Сима, Хама, Иафефа.
11 The earth was corrupt before God, and it was filled with violence.
Растлеся же земля пред Богом, и наполнися земля неправды.
12 God saw the earth; behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth.
И виде Господь Бог землю, и бе растленна: яко растли всяка плоть путь свой на земли.
13 God said to Noah, “I can see that it is time to put an end to all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Indeed, I will destroy them with the earth.
И рече Господь Бог Ною: время всякаго человека прииде пред Мя, яко исполнися земля неправды от них: и се, Аз погублю их и землю.
14 Make for yourself an ark of cypress wood. Make rooms in the ark, and cover it with pitch within and without.
Сотвори убо себе ковчег от древ (негниющих) четвероуголных: гнезда сотвориши в ковчезе, и посмолиши его внутрьуду и внеуду смолою.
15 This is how you will make it: The length of the ark is to be three hundred cubits; the breadth of it is to be fifty cubits, and the height of it is to be thirty cubits.
И тако сотвориши ковчег: трех сот лактей долгота ковчега, и пятидесяти лактей широта, и тридесяти лактей высота его.
16 Make a roof for the ark, and finish it at a cubit from the top of the side. Place a door in the side of the ark and make a lower, a second, and a third deck.
Собирая сводом сотвориши ковчег, и в лакоть свершиши его свыше: дверь же ковчега сотвориши от страны: обиталища двокровна и трекровна сотвориши в нем.
17 Listen, I am about to bring the flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh that has in it the breath of life from under heaven. Everything that is on the earth will die.
Аз же, се, наведу потоп, воду на землю, погубити всяку плоть, в нейже есть дух жизни под небесем: и елика суть на земли, скончаются.
18 But I will establish my covenant with you. You will come into the ark, you, and your sons, and your wife, and your sons' wives with you.
И поставлю завет Мой с тобою: внидеши же в ковчег ты и сынове твои, и жена твоя и жены сынов твоих с тобою.
19 Of every living creature of all flesh, two of every kind you must bring into the ark, to keep them alive with you, both male and female.
И от всех скотов и от всех гад, и от всех зверей, и от всякия плоти, два два от всех введеши в ковчег, да питаеши с собою: мужеский пол и женский будут.
20 Of the birds after their kind, and of the larger animals after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort will come to you, to keep them alive.
От всех птиц пернатых по роду, и от всех скотов по роду, и от всех гадов ползающих по земли по роду их, два два от всех внидут к тебе, питатися с тобою, мужеский пол и женский.
21 Gather for yourself every kind of food that is eaten and store it, so that it will be food for you and for them.”
Ты же возми себе от всех брашен, яже имате ясти, и собереши к себе, и будут тебе и оным брашно.
22 So Noah did this. According to all that God commanded him, so he did.
И сотвори Ное вся елика заповеда ему Господь Бог, тако сотвори.
