Jenèz 7
1 Konsa, SENYÈ a te di a Noé: “Antre nan lach la, ou avèk tout lakay ou, paske se ou sèl mwen te wè ki dwat devan mwen nan jenerasyon sila a.
And Jehovah said to Noah, Go into the ark, thou and all thy house; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
2 Ou va pran avèk ou sèt nan chak bèt ki pwòp, yon mal avèk yon femèl parèy li. Nan bèt ki pa pwòp yo, yon mal avèk yon femèl parèy li.
Of all clean beasts thou shalt take to thee by sevens, a male and its female; but of the beasts that are not clean two, a male and its female.
3 Anplis, nan zwazo nan syèl la pa sèt, mal avèk femèl, pou kenbe pòtre yo vivan sou tout sifas tè a.
Also of the fowl of the heavens by sevens, male and female; to keep seed alive on the face of all the earth.
4 Paske, apre sèt jou ankò, Mwen va voye lapli sou latè pandan karant jou ak karant nwit. Konsa, Mwen va efase sou fas tè a chak èt vivan ke Mwen te fè.”
For in yet seven days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living being which I have made will I destroy from the ground.
5 Noé te fè tout bagay jan ke Bondye te mande l la.
And Noah did according to all that Jehovah had commanded him.
6 Alò, Noé te gen laj sis-san ane lè delij la te vini sou latè.
And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was on the earth.
7 Noé avèk fis li yo, avèk madanm li, avèk madanm a fis li yo, avèk li menm te antre nan lach la akoz dlo delij la.
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 Nan bèt ki te pwòp yo, avèk bèt ki pa pwòp yo, zwazo avèk tout sa ki kouri atè yo,
Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowl, and of everything that creeps on the ground,
9 tout te antre nan lach la ak Noé, de pa de, mal avèk femèl, jan Bondye te kòmande Noé a.
there came two and two unto Noah into the ark, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 Li te rive apre sèt jou ke dlo delij la te vini sou latè.
And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth.
11 Nan sis-santyèm ane nan lavi Noé, nan dezyèm mwa, nan di-setyèm jou nan mwa a, nan menm jou a, tout sous nan gran fon an te vin pete, e pòt delij yo nan syèl la te vin louvri.
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that same day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 Lapli te tonbe sou latè pandan karant jou, ak karant nwit.
And the pour of rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 O jis nan menm jou sa a, Noé avèk Sem, Cham, avèk Japhet, fis a Noé yo, madanm a Noé, ak twa madanm a fis li yo, te antre nan lach la,
On the same day went Noah, and Shem and Ham and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
14 yo menm avèk chak bèt selon espès yo, tout bèt domestik selon espès pa yo, tout reptil ki kouri atè selon espès pa yo, ak tout kalite zwazo.
they, and every beast after its kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and all fowl after its kind — every bird of every wing.
15 Epi yo te antre nan lach la vè Noé, pa de nan tout chè ki te gen souf lavi.
And they went to Noah, into the ark, two and two of all flesh, in which was the breath of life.
16 Sila ki te antre yo, mal avèk femèl nan tout chè, te antre jan Bondye te kòmande li a; epi SENYÈ a te fèmen lach la dèyè li.
And they that came, came male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him. And Jehovah shut him in.
17 Konsa delij la te vini sou latè a pandan karant jou. Dlo a te vin ogmante e te leve lach la jis li rive anwo tè a.
And the flood was forty days on the earth. And the waters increased, and bore up the ark; and it was lifted up above the earth.
18 Dlo a te monte. Li te ogmante anpil sou tè a, e lach la te monte sou dlo a.
And the waters prevailed and increased greatly on the earth; and the ark went on the face of the waters.
19 Dlo a te vin monte plis toujou sou tè a, jis tout mòn toupatou anba syèl la te vin kouvri.
And the waters prevailed exceedingly on the earth; and all the high mountains that are under all the heavens were covered.
20 Dlo a te vin monte pou kenz koude anplis, e mòn yo te vin kouvri.
Fifteen cubits upward the waters prevailed; and the mountains were covered.
21 Tout chè ki t ap fè mouvman sou tè a te vin peri, zwazo avèk bèt domestik avèk bèt sovaj, e chak ensèk ki vole ansanm sou latè, ak tout moun.
And all flesh that moved on the earth expired, fowl as well as cattle, and beasts, and all crawling things which crawl on the earth, and all mankind:
22 Tout sa ki te sou tè sèk la, ki te gen souf lavi nan nen yo te vin mouri.
everything which had in its nostrils the breath of life, of all that was on the dry [land], died.
23 Konsa Li te efase chak bagay ki t ap viv sou fas tè a, soti nan lòm jis rive nan tout bèt, sou sa ki te kouri atè, ak zwazo latè yo. Konsa yo te efase soti sou tè la nèt, e se sèl Noé ki te rete ansanm avèk sila ki te avèk li nan lach la.
And every living being was destroyed that was on the ground, both man, and cattle, and creeping things, and fowl of the heavens; and they were destroyed from the earth. And Noah alone remained, and what was with him in the ark.
24 Dlo a te monte kouvri tout tè a pandan san-senkant jou.
And the waters prevailed on the earth a hundred and fifty days.
The Great Flood
