Jenèz 7
1 Seyè a di Noe: Antre nan gwo batiman an, ou menm ansanm ak tout fanmi ou, paske, nan tout moun k'ap viv koulye la a, se ou menm sèl mwen wè k'ap mache dwat devan mwen.
And Jehovah said to Noah, Come, thou and all thy house into the ark, for I have seen thee righteous before me in this generation.
2 Nan tout bèt ki bon pou moun manje, w'a pran sèt mal ak sèt fenmèl nan chak kalite. Nan tout bèt ki pa bon pou moun manje, w'a pran yon mal ak yon fenmèl nan chak kalite.
Of every clean beast thou shall take to thee by sevens, the male and his female. And of the beasts that are not clean two, the male and his female.
3 Konsa tou, pou zwazo k'ap vole nan syèl la, w'a pran sèt mal ak sèt fenmèl nan chak kalite, pou ras la pa disparèt sou latè.
Also of the birds of the heavens by sevens, male and female, to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
4 Paske, nan sèt jou ankò, m'ap fè yon sèl lapli tonbe sou latè pandan karant jou karant nwit. M'ap disparèt tout moun ak tout bèt mwen te fè mete sou latè.
For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and every living thing that I have made I will destroy from off the face of the ground.
5 Noe fè tout sa Seyè a te ba li lòd fè a.
And Noah did according to all that Jehovah commanded him.
6 Noe te gen sisanzan (600 an) lè inondasyon an te fèt sou latè.
And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 Li antre nan batiman an, li menm, pitit gason li yo, madanm li ansanm ak madanm pitit li yo pou yo te ka chape anba inondasyon an.
And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 tout kalite bèt, kit sa ki bon pou moun manje, kit sa ki pa bon pou moun manje, tout zwazo, tout bèt ki trennen sou vant,
Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of birds, and of everything that creeps upon the ground,
9 yo tout yo vin jwenn Noe nan batiman an, de pa de, mal ak fenmèl, jan Bondye te bay Noe lòd la.
there went in two by two to Noah into the ark, male and female, as God commanded Noah.
10 Sou sèt jou vre, dlo kouvri tout latè.
And it came to pass after the seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 Jou ki fè Noe sisanzan (600 an), yon mwa, disèt jou, tout sous nan fon lanmè a pete. Syèl la menm louvri, li konmanse vide dlo sou tè a.
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 Lapli tonbe san rete pandan karant jou karant nwit.
And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 Menm jou sa a, Noe, madanm li, pitit gason l' yo, Sèm, Kam ak Jafè, ansanm ak madanm yo antre nan batiman an,
In the selfsame day Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, entered into the ark,
14 ansanm ak tout kalite bèt domestik, tout kalite bèt ki trennen sou vant ak tout kalite zwazo, tout kalite ti zwazo, tout kalite bèt ki gen zèl.
they, and every beast according to its kind, and all the cattle according to their kind, and every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth according to its kind, and every bird according to its kind, every bird of every sort.
15 Yo tout yo te vin jwenn Noe nan batiman an, de grenn nan chak kalite bèt vivan ki sou latè.
And they went in to Noah into the ark, two by two of all flesh in which is the breath of life.
16 Se konsa, yon mal ak yon fenmèl nan chak kalite bèt vivan antre nan batiman an, jan Bondye te bay lòd la. Epi Bondye fèmen pòt la dèyè Noe.
And those that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him. And Jehovah shut him in.
17 Pandan karant jou, dlo kouvri tout tè a. Dlo yo gonfle, yo fè batiman an pèdi tè.
And the flood was forty days upon the earth. And the waters increased, and bore up the ark, and it was lifted up above the earth.
18 Dlo yo ranfòse, yo gonfle pi rèd sou tè a jouk batiman an t'ap flote nèt sou dlo a.
And the waters prevailed, and increased greatly upon the earth, and the ark went upon the face of the waters.
19 Dlo a moute pi rèd toujou anwo tè a, li kouvri tèt tout gwo mòn ki anba syèl la.
And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth, and all the high mountains that were under the whole heaven were covered,
20 Dlo a moute vennsenk pye depase tèt mòn yo.
fifteen cubits upward. The waters prevailed, and the mountains were covered.
21 Lè sa a, tout bèt sou latè mouri: zwazo, bèt domestik, zannimo, tout bèt ki trennen sou vant yo, ansanm ak tout moun.
And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, from birds, to cattle, to beasts, and every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth, and every man.
22 tout bèt vivan ak tout moun sou latè mouri.
All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, of all that was on the dry land, died.
23 Se konsa, Seyè a detwi tout bèt, tout sa ki te sou latè, depi ou tande se moun jouk zannimo domestik, bèt ki trennen sou vant ak zwazo k'ap vole nan syèl la. Yo tout yo disparèt sou latè. Sèl moun ki te rete se te Noe avèk lòt moun ki te nan batiman an ansanm ak li yo.
And every living thing was destroyed that was upon the face of the ground, from man, to cattle, to creeping things, and birds of the heavens, and they were destroyed from the earth. And only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ark.
24 Apre sa, dlo a rete anwo tè a pandan sansenkant (150) jou.
And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.
The Great Flood
