< Genesis 6 >

1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of 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 the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all whom they chose.
видевше же сынове Божии дщери человечи, яко добры суть, пояша себе жены от всех, яже избраша.
3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty 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 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them, the same became mighty men who were 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 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart 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 And the LORD repented that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
и помысли Бог, яко сотвори человека на земли, и размысли.
7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for I repent 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 grace in the eyes of the LORD.
Ное же обрете благодать пред Господем Богом.
9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
Сия же бытия Ноева: Ное человек праведен совершен сый в роде своем, Богу угоди Ное.
10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
Роди же Ное три сыны, Сима, Хама, Иафефа.
11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
Растлеся же земля пред Богом, и наполнися земля неправды.
12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
И виде Господь Бог землю, и бе растленна: яко растли всяка плоть путь свой на земли.
13 And God said to Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, 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 thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
Сотвори убо себе ковчег от древ (негниющих) четвероуголных: гнезда сотвориши в ковчезе, и посмолиши его внутрьуду и внеуду смолою.
15 And this is the fashion in which thou shalt make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
И тако сотвориши ковчег: трех сот лактей долгота ковчега, и пятидесяти лактей широта, и тридесяти лактей высота его.
16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in its side; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.
Собирая сводом сотвориши ковчег, и в лакоть свершиши его свыше: дверь же ковчега сотвориши от страны: обиталища двокровна и трекровна сотвориши в нем.
17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, in which is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is on the earth shall 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 with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons’ wives with thee.
И поставлю завет Мой с тобою: внидеши же в ковчег ты и сынове твои, и жена твоя и жены сынов твоих с тобою.
19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be 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 fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after its kind, two of every sort shall come to thee, 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 And take thou to thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.
Ты же возми себе от всех брашен, яже имате ясти, и собереши к себе, и будут тебе и оным брашно.
22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
И сотвори Ное вся елика заповеда ему Господь Бог, тако сотвори.
