Genesis 8

1 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters abated;

A Bog se opomenu Noja i svijeh zvijeri i sve stoke što bjehu s njim u kovèegu; i posla Bog vjetar na zemlju da uzbije vodu.

2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;

I zatvoriše se izvori bezdanu i ustave nebeske, i dažd s neba prestade.

3 And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated.

I stade voda opadati na zemlji, i jednako opadaše poslije sto i pedeset dana;

4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.

Te se ustavi kovèeg sedmoga mjeseca dana sedamnaestoga na planini Araratu.

5 And the waters decreased continually till the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.

I voda opadaše sve veæma do desetoga mjeseca; i prvoga dana desetoga mjeseca pokazaše se vrhovi od brda.

6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:

A poslije èetrdeset dana otvori Noje prozor na kovèegu, koji bješe naèinio;

7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, till the waters were dried from off the earth.

I ispusti gavrana, koji jednako odlijetaše i dolijetaše dokle ne presahnu voda na zemlji.

8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;

Pa pusti i golubicu da bi vidio je li opala voda sa zemlje.

9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned to him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in to him into the ark.

A golubica ne našavši gdje bi stala nogom svojom vrati se k njemu u kovèeg, jer još bješe voda po svoj zemlji; i Noje pruživši ruku uhvati je i uze k sebi u kovèeg.

10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;

I poèeka još sedam dana, pa opet ispusti golubicu iz kovèega.

11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.

I pred veèe vrati se k njemu golubica, i gle, u kljunu joj list maslinov, koji bješe otkinula; tako pozna Noje da je opala voda sa zemlje.

12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again to him any more.

Ali poèeka još sedam dana, pa opet ispusti golubicu, a ona mu se više ne vrati.

13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.

Šest stotina prve godine vijeka Nojeva prvi dan prvoga mjeseca usahnu voda na zemlji; i Noje otkri krov na kovèegu, i ugleda zemlju suhu.

14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.

A drugoga mjeseca dvadeset sedmoga dana bješe sva zemlja suha.

15 And God spoke to Noah, saying,

Tada reèe Bog Noju govoreæi:

16 Go forth from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons’ wives with thee.

Izidi iz kovèega ti i žena tvoja i sinovi tvoji i žene sinova tvojih s tobom;

17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply on the earth.

Sve zvijeri što su s tobom od svakoga tijela, ptice i stoku i što god gamiže po zemlji, izvedi sa sobom, neka se raziðu po zemlji, i neka se plode i množe na zemlji.

18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him:

I izide Noje i sinovi njegovi i žena njegova i žene sinova njegovijeh s njim.

19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went out of the ark.

Sve zvijeri, sve sitne životinje, sve ptice i sve što se mièe po zemlji po svojim vrstama izidoše iz kovèega.

20 And Noah built an altar to the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

I naèini Noje žrtvenik Gospodu, i uze od svake èiste stoke i od svijeh ptica èistijeh, i prinese na žrtveniku žrtve paljenice.

21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every living thing, as I have done.

I Gospod omirisa miris ugodni, i reèe u srcu svojem: neæu više kleti zemlje s ljudi, što je misao srca èovjeèijega zla od malena; niti æu više ubijati svega što živi, kao što uèinih.

22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

Otsele dokle bude zemlje, neæe nestajati sjetve ni žetve, studeni ni vruæine, ljeta ni zime, dana ni noæi.

A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
