Kinohi 8
1 HOOMANAO iho la o Iehova ia Noa, a me na mea ola a pau, a me na holoholona a pau me ia iloko o ka halelana: hoohuai mai la ke Akua i ka makani maluna o ka honua, a emi iho la ka wai:
But God hadn't forgotten about Noah and all the wild animals and livestock with him in the ark. God sent a wind to blow over the earth, and the floodwaters started to drop.
2 Ua papaniia ae la na punawai o ka hohonu, a me na puka wai o ka lani, a malie iho ka ua mai luna mai:
The subterranean waters were closed off, and the heavy rainfall was stopped.
3 Hoi hou mau aku la ka wai mailuna ae o ka honua: a mahope o na la he haneri a me kanalima, ua emi ka wai.
The floodwaters steadily receded from the earth. They had gone down so much that by 150 days after the flood began
4 A i ka hiku o ka malama, i ka la umikumamahiku o ua malama la, ili iho la ka halelana ma na kuahiwi o Ararata.
the ark grounded on the mountains of Ararat. This happened on the seventeenth day of the seventh month.
5 Emi mau iho la ka wai, a hiki i ka umi o ka malama: i ka umi o ka malama, i ka la mua o ua malama la, ua ikea na wahi kiekie o na kuahiwi.
The waters continued to drop so that by the first day of the tenth month the tops of mountains could be seen.
6 A hala na la he kanaha, wehe ae la o Noa i ka puka makani o ka halelana ana i hana'i:
Forty days later Noah opened the window he'd made in the ark,
7 Hookuu aku la ia i kekahi koraka, nana i lele aku a hoi mai ma kela wahi a ma keia wahi, a maloo iho ka wai ma ka honua.
and sent a raven out. It flew back and forth until the water on the earth had dried up.
8 Hookuu aku la hoi oia i ka manu nunu e ike i ka emi ana o ka wai mai ka aina aku;
Then he sent a dove out to see if the waters had gone down enough to expose dry ground.
9 Aka, aole i loaa i ua manu nunu la he wahi e maha'i o kona wawae, a hoi hou mai la ia io na la iloko o ka halelana, no ka mea, ua uhi ka wai maluna o ka honua a pau; alaila, o aku la kona lima, lalau aku la oia ia ia, a huki mai la ia ia io na la iloko o ka halelana.
But the dove couldn't find anywhere to land. So it came back to Noah in the ark because water was still covering the whole earth. He reached out his hand, picked up the dove, and took it back into the ark with him.
10 Noho iho la ia i na la hou aka i ehiku; a hookuu hou aku la i ka manu nunu iwaho o ka halelana;
He waited another seven days and sent the dove out from the ark again.
11 A ahiahi iho la, hoi mai la ka manu nunu io na la, aia hoi, he lau oliva hou ma kona waha. Pela o Noa i ike ai, ua emi iho ka wai mai luna aka o ka honua.
When it came back to him in the evening it had a freshly-picked olive leaf in its beak, so Noah knew the floodwaters were mainly gone from the earth.
12 Noho iho la ia i na la hou aku i ehiku; a hookuu aku la i ka manu nunu; aole no ia i hoi hou mai io na la ma ia hope mai.
Again he waited another seven days and sent the dove out again, but this time it didn't return to him.
13 I ka makahiki eono haneri a me kumamakahi, i ka malama hookahi, a i ka la mua o ua malama la, maloo iho la ka wai mai ka honua aku; a wehe ae la o Noa i ke pani maluna o ka halelana, a nana ae la, aia hoi, ua maloo ka aina.
By now Noah was 601, and by the first day of the first month, the floodwaters on the earth were gone. Noah pulled back the ark's covering and saw that the ground was drying out.
14 A i ka lua o ka malama, i ka la iwakaluakumamahiku o ua malama la, ua maloo iho ka honua.
By the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.
15 Olelo mai la ke Akua ia Noa, i mai la,
Then God told Noah,
16 E hele aku oe iwaho o ka halelana, o oe, me kau wahine, me au mau keikikane, a me na wahine a kau mau keikikane me oe.
“Leave the ark, you and your wife, your sons and their wives.
17 E lawe pu mai me oe i na mea ola a pau ia oe, o na mea io, o na manu, na holoholona, a me na mea kolo a pau e kolo ana maluna o ka honua; i hanau nui ai lakou ma ka honua, i hua mai, a mahuahua maluna o ka honua.
Let all the animals go—the birds, the wild animals, the creatures that run along the ground—so that they can breed and increase their numbers on the earth.”
18 Hele aku la o Noa me kana mau keikikane, a me kana wahine, a me na wahine a kana mau keikikane me ia:
So Noah and his wife, his sons and their wives, left the ark.
19 O na holoholona hoi a pau, o na mea kolo a pau, me na manu a pau, a me na mea a pau e kolo ana maluna o ka honua, ma ko lakou mau ano iho, hele aku la lakou iwaho o ka halelana.
All the animals, all the creatures that run along the ground, all the birds—everything that lives on land—also left, each kind leaving together.
20 Hana iho la o Noa i kuahu no Iehova, lalau aku la ia i kekahi o na holoholona maemae a pau, a o na manu maemae a pau, a kaumaha aku la i na mohaikuni maluna o ke kuahu.
Noah built an altar, and sacrificed some of the clean animals and birds as a burnt offering.
21 Honi mai la o Iehova i ke ala oluolu: i iho la o Iehova iloko o kona naau, Aole au e hoino hou i ka aina no kanaka, no ka mea, ua hewa no ka manao ana o ko ke kanaka naau mai kona wa opiopio; aole hoi au e luku hou aku i na mea ola a pau, me au i hana iho nei.
The Lord accepted the sacrifice, and said to himself, “I won't ever again curse the ground because of human beings, even though every single thought in their minds is evil from childhood. I won't ever destroy all life again as I have just done.
22 E mau auanei ka wa e kanu ai a e ohi ai; ke ana a me ka wela, ke kau a me ka hooilo, ka la a me ka po; a pau na la o ka honua.
As long as the earth exists, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, will never come to an end.”
