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 the Lord said to him: Go in thou and all thy house into the ark: for thee I have seen just 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 take seven and seven, the male and the female.
3 Anplis, nan zwazo nan syèl la pa sèt, mal avèk femèl, pou kenbe pòtre yo vivan sou tout sifas tè a.
But of the beasts that are unclean two and two, the male and the female. Of the fowls also of the air seven and seven, the male and the female: that seed may be saved upon the face of the whole 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 yet a while, and after seven days, I will rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and I will destroy every substance that I have made, from the face of the earth.
5 Noé te fè tout bagay jan ke Bondye te mande l la.
And Noe did all things which the Lord had commanded him.
6 Alò, Noé te gen laj sis-san ane lè delij la te vini sou latè.
And he was six hundred years old, when the waters of the flood overflowed 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 Noe went in and his sons, his wife and the wives of his sons 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,
And of beasts clean and unclean, and of fowls, and of every thing that moveth upon the earth,
9 tout te antre nan lach la ak Noé, de pa de, mal avèk femèl, jan Bondye te kòmande Noé a.
Two and two went in to Noe into the ark, male and female, as the Lord had commanded Noe.
10 Li te rive apre sèt jou ke dlo delij la te vini sou latè.
And after the seven days were passed, the waters of the flood overflowed 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 the life of Noe, in the second month, in the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the flood gates of heaven were opened:
12 Lapli te tonbe sou latè pandan karant jou, ak karant nwit.
And the rain fell upon 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,
In the selfsame day Noe, and Sem, and Cham, and Japheth his sons: his wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, went 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 according to its kind, and all the cattle in their kind, and every thing that moveth upon the earth according to its kind, and every fowl according to its kind, all birds, and all that fly,
15 Epi yo te antre nan lach la vè Noé, pa de nan tout chè ki te gen souf lavi.
Went in to Noe into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein 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 went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the Lord shut him in on the outside.
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 upon the earth, and the waters increased, and lifted up the ark on high from the earth.
18 Dlo a te monte. Li te ogmante anpil sou tè a, e lach la te monte sou dlo a.
For they overflowed exceedingly: and filled all on the face of the earth: and the ark was carried upon 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 beyond measure upon the earth: and all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered.
20 Dlo a te vin monte pou kenz koude anplis, e mòn yo te vin kouvri.
The water was fifteen cubits higher than the mountains which it 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 was destroyed that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beasts, and of all creeping things that creep upon the earth: and all men.
22 Tout sa ki te sou tè sèk la, ki te gen souf lavi nan nen yo te vin mouri.
And all things wherein there is the breath of life on the earth, 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 he destroyed all the substance that was upon the earth, from man even to beast, and the creeping things and fowls of the air: and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noe only remained, and they that were with him in the ark.
24 Dlo a te monte kouvri tout tè a pandan san-senkant jou.
And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.
The Great Flood
