Genesis 6
1 When men began to multiply on the surface of the ground, and daughters were born to them,
人地の面に繁衍はじまりて女子之に生るるに及べる時
2 God’s sons saw that men’s daughters were beautiful, and they took any that they wanted for themselves as wives.
神の子等人の女子の美しきを見て其好む所の者を取て妻となせり
3 The LORD said, “My Spirit will not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh; so his days will be one hundred and twenty years.”
ヱホバいひたまひけるは我靈永く人と爭はじ其は彼も肉なればなり然ど彼の日は百二十年なるべし
4 The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when God’s sons came in to men’s daughters and had children with them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.
當時地にネピリムありき亦其後神の子輩人の女の所に入りて子女を生しめたりしが其等も勇士にして古昔の名聲ある人なりき
5 The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of man’s heart was continually only evil.
ヱホバ人の惡の地に大なると其心の思念の都て圖維る所の恒に惟惡きのみなるを見たまへり
6 The LORD was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart.
是に於てヱホバ地の上に人を造りしことを悔いて心に憂へたまへり
7 The LORD said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the surface of the ground—man, along with animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky—for I am sorry that I have made them.”
ヱホバ言たまひけるは我が創造りし人を我地の面より拭去ん人より獸昆蟲天空の鳥にいたるまでほろぼさん其は我之を造りしことを悔ればなりと
8 But Noah found favour in the LORD’s eyes.
されどノアはヱホバの目のまへに恩を得たり
9 This is the history of the generations of Noah: Noah was a righteous man, blameless amongst the people of his time. Noah walked with God.
ノアの傳は是なりノアは義人にして其世の完全き者なりきノア神と偕に歩めり
10 Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
ノアはセム、ハム、ヤペテの三人の子を生り
11 The earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
時に世神のまへに亂れて暴虐世に滿盈ちたりき
12 God saw the earth, and saw that it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.
神世を視たまひけるに視よ亂れたり其は世の人皆其道をみだしたればなり
13 God said to Noah, “I will bring an end to all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Behold, I will destroy them and the earth.
神ノアに言たまひけるは諸の人の末期わが前に近づけり其は彼等のために暴虐世にみつればなり視よ我彼等を世とともに剪滅さん
14 Make a ship of gopher wood. You shall make rooms in the ship, and shall seal it inside and outside with pitch.
汝松木をもて汝のために方舟を造り方舟の中に房を作り瀝靑をもて其内外を塗るべし
15 This is how you shall make it. The length of the ship shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.
汝かく之を作るべし即ち其方舟の長は三百キユビト其濶は五十キユビト其高は三十キユビト
16 You shall make a roof in the ship, and you shall finish it to a cubit upward. You shall set the door of the ship in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third levels.
又方舟に導光牖を作り上一キユビトに之を作り終べし又方舟の戸は其傍に設くべし下牀と二階と三階とに之を作るべし
17 I, even I, will bring the flood of waters on this earth, to destroy all flesh having the breath of life from under the sky. Everything that is in the earth will die.
視よ我洪水を地に起して凡て生命の氣息ある肉なる者を天下より剪滅し絶ん地にをる者は皆死ぬべし
18 But I will establish my covenant with you. You shall come into the ship, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives with you.
然ど汝とは我わが契約をたてん汝は汝の子等と汝の妻および汝の子等の妻とともに其方舟に入るべし
19 Of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ship, to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.
又諸の生物總て肉なる者をば汝各其二を方舟に挈へいりて汝とともに其生命を保たしむべし其等は牝牡なるべし
20 Of the birds after their kind, of the livestock 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.
鳥其類に從ひ獸其類に從ひ地の諸の昆蟲其類に從ひて各二汝の所に至りて其生命を保つべし
21 Take with you some of all food that is eaten, and gather it to yourself; and it will be for food for you, and for them.”
汝食はるる諸の食品を汝の許に取て之を汝の所に集むべし是即ち汝と是等の物の食品となるべし
22 Thus Noah did. He did all that God commanded him.
ノア是爲し都て神の己に命じたまひしごとく然爲せり
The World is Destroyed by Water
