< Genesis 8 >

1 And God remembereth Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle which [are] with him in the ark, and God causeth a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subside,
Ary Andriamanitra nahatsiaro an’ i Noa mbamin’ ny bibi-dia rehetra ary ny biby fiompy rehetra, izay niara-nitoetra taminy tao anatin’ ny sambo-fiara; ary Andriamanitra nampandeha rivotra eran’ ny tany, ka dia nihena ny rano.
2 and closed are the fountains of the deep and the net-work of the heavens, and restrained is the shower from the heavens.
Ary tampina ny loharanon’ ny lalina sy ny varavaran’ ny lanitra, ka nitsahatra ilay ranonorana nivatravatra avy tany an-danitra.
3 And turn back do the waters from off the earth, going on and returning; and the waters are lacking at the end of a hundred and fifty days.
Ary nihena niandalana niala tamin’ ny tany ny rano; ary rehefa afaka dimam-polo amby zato andro, dia efa nihena ny rano.
4 And the ark resteth, in the seventh month, in the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;
Dia nipetraka teo amin’ ny tendrombohitra any Ararata ny sambo-fiara tamin’ ny andro fahafito ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana fahafito.
5 and the waters have been going and becoming lacking till the tenth month; in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, appeared the heads of the mountains.
Ary ny rano dia mbola nihena niandalana hatramin’ ny volana fahafolo; tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana fahafolo dia niseho ny tampon’ ny tendrombohitra.
6 And it cometh to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah openeth the window of the ark which he made,
Ary rehefa afaka efa-polo andro, dia novohan’ i Noa ny varavarankelin’ ny sambo-fiara izay efa nataony.
7 and he sendeth forth the raven, and it goeth out, going out and turning back till the drying of the waters from off the earth.
Dia namoaka goaika anankiray izy, ary niverimberina mandra-paharitry ny rano tamin’ ny tany iny.
8 And he sendeth forth the dove from him to see whether the waters have been lightened from off the face of the ground,
Dia namoaka voromailala anankiray izay teo aminy izy, hizahany na efa kely ny rano tambonin’ ny tany, na tsia.
9 and the dove hath not found rest for the sole of her foot, and she turneth back unto him, unto the ark, for waters [are] on the face of all the earth, and he putteth out his hand, and taketh her, and bringeth her in unto him, unto the ark.
Fa tsy hitan’ ilay voromailala izay hipetrahan’ ny faladiany, dia niverina tamin’ i Noa tao anatin’ ny sambo-fiara izy, satria mbola nisy rano tambonin’ ny tany rehetra; ary Noa naninjitra ny tànany ka nandray sy nampiditra azy ho ao aminy tao anatin’ ny sambo-fiara.
10 And he stayeth yet other seven days, and addeth to send forth the dove from the ark;
Ary mbola niandry hafitoana koa izy; dia namoaka ilay voromailala tamin’ ny sambo-fiara indray izy.
11 and the dove cometh in unto him at even-time, and lo, an olive leaf torn off in her mouth; and Noah knoweth that the waters have been lightened from off the earth.
Dia niditra teo aminy ilay voromailala nony hariva ny andro; ary, indro, nisy ravin’ oliva maitso teo am-bavany; izany no nahafantaran’ i Noa fa efa kely ny rano tambonin’ ny tany.
12 And he stayeth yet other seven days, and sendeth forth the dove, and it added not to turn back unto him any more.
Ary mbola niandry hafitoana indray izy, dia namoaka ilay voromailala; ary tsy niverina teo aminy intsony iny.
13 And it cometh to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first [month], in the first of the month, the waters have been dried from off the earth; and Noah turneth aside the covering of the ark, and looketh, and lo, the face of the ground hath been dried.
Ary tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana voalohany tamin’ ny taona fahiraika amby enin-jato, dia ritra ny rano teo ambonin’ ny tany; ary nanaisotra ny tafon’ ny sambo-fiara Noa ka nijery, ary, indro, efa maina ny tany.
14 And in the second month, in the seven and twentieth day of the month, the earth hath become dry.
Ary tamin’ ny andro fahafito amby roa-polo tamin’ ny volana faharoa, dia maina ny tany.
15 And God speaketh unto Noah, saying, 'Go out from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee;
Ary Andriamanitra dia niteny tamin’ i Noa ka nanao hoe:
16 every living thing that [is] with thee, of all flesh, among fowl, and among cattle, and among every creeping thing which is creeping on the earth, bring out with thee;
Mivoaha amin’ ny sambo-fiara ianao sy ny vadinao aman-janakao ary ny vinantonao vavy miaraka aminao.
17 and they have teemed in the earth, and been fruitful, and have multiplied on the earth.'
Ary ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra, izay eo aminao, avy tamin’ ny nofo rehetra, dia ny vorona sy ny biby fiompy sy ny biby rehetra izay mandady na mikisaka amin’ ny tany, dia ento mivoaka miaraka aminao; ary aoka hiteraka be eny ambonin’ ny tany sy ho maro anaka ary hihabetsaka eny ambonin’ ny tany ireny.
18 And Noah goeth out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him;
Dia nivoaka Noa mbamin’ ny vadiny aman-janany ary ny vinantonivavy niaraka taminy;
19 every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl; every creeping thing on the earth, after their families, have gone out from the ark.
Ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra sy ny biby rehetra izay mandady na mikisaka ary ny vorona rehetra mbamin’ izay rehetra mihetsiketsika eny ambonin’ ny tany dia samy nivoaka avy tao amin’ ny sambo-fiara araka ny karazany.
20 And Noah buildeth an altar to Jehovah, and taketh of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and causeth burnt-offerings to ascend on the altar;
Ary Noa dia nanorina alitara ho an’ i Jehovah; ary ny biby madio rehetra sy ny vorona madio rehetra dia nanalany ka nataony fanatitra odorana teo ambonin’ ny alitara.
21 and Jehovah smelleth the sweet fragrance, and Jehovah saith unto His heart, 'I continue not to disesteem any more the ground because of man, though the imagination of the heart of man [is] evil from his youth; and I continue not to smite any more all living, as I have done;
Dia nandre ny hanitra ankasitrahana Jehovah, ka hoy Izy tam-pony: Tsy mba hanozona ny tany intsony noho ny amin’ ny olona Aho; fa ny fisainan’ ny fon’ ny olona dia ratsy hatramin’ ny fahazazany; ary tsy mba handringana ny velona rehetra intsony Aho tahaka izay nataoko.
22 during all days of the earth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, do not cease.'
Raha mbola maharitra koa ny tany, dia tsy hanam-pitsaharana ny taom-pamafazana sy ny taom-pijinjana, ary ny hatsiaka sy ny hafanana ary ny fahavaratra sy ny ririnina, ary ny andro sy ny alina.
