उत्पत्ति 7
1 १ तब यहोवा ने नूह से कहा, “तू अपने सारे घराने समेत जहाज में जा; क्योंकि मैंने इस समय के लोगों में से केवल तुझी को अपनी दृष्टि में धर्मी पाया है।
And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
2 २ सब जाति के शुद्ध पशुओं में से तो तू सात-सात जोड़े, अर्थात् नर और मादा लेना: पर जो पशु शुद्ध नहीं हैं, उनमें से दो-दो लेना, अर्थात् नर और मादा:
Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that [are] not clean by two, the male and his female.
3 ३ और आकाश के पक्षियों में से भी, सात-सात जोड़े, अर्थात् नर और मादा लेना, कि उनका वंश बचकर सारी पृथ्वी के ऊपर बना रहे।
Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
4 ४ क्योंकि अब सात दिन और बीतने पर मैं पृथ्वी पर चालीस दिन और चालीस रात तक जल बरसाता रहूँगा; और जितने प्राणी मैंने बनाए हैं उन सब को भूमि के ऊपर से मिटा दूँगा।”
For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.
And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him.
And Noah [was] six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
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.
Of clean beasts, and of beasts that [are] not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 ९ और भूमि पर रेंगनेवालों में से भी, दो-दो, अर्थात् नर और मादा, जहाज में नूह के पास गए, जिस प्रकार परमेश्वर ने नूह को आज्ञा दी थी।
There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 ११ जब नूह की आयु के छः सौवें वर्ष के दूसरे महीने का सत्रहवाँ दिन आया; उसी दिन बड़े गहरे समुद्र के सब सोते फूट निकले और आकाश के झरोखे खुल गए।
In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
In the selfsame day entered 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 १४ और उनके संग एक-एक जाति के सब जंगली पशु, और एक-एक जाति के सब घरेलू पशु, और एक-एक जाति के सब पृथ्वी पर रेंगनेवाले, और एक-एक जाति के सब उड़नेवाले पक्षी, जहाज में गए।
They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort.
And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein [is] the breath of life.
16 १६ और जो गए, वह परमेश्वर की आज्ञा के अनुसार सब जाति के प्राणियों में से नर और मादा गए। तब यहोवा ने जहाज का द्वार बन्द कर दिया।
And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.
17 १७ पृथ्वी पर चालीस दिन तक जल-प्रलय होता रहा; और पानी बहुत बढ़ता ही गया, जिससे जहाज ऊपर को उठने लगा, और वह पृथ्वी पर से ऊँचा उठ गया।
And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.
And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.
And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that [were] under the whole heaven, were covered.
Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.
21 २१ और क्या पक्षी, क्या घरेलू पशु, क्या जंगली पशु, और पृथ्वी पर सब चलनेवाले प्राणी, और जितने जन्तु पृथ्वी में बहुतायत से भर गए थे, वे सब, और सब मनुष्य मर गए।
And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:
All in whose nostrils [was] the breath of life, of all that [was] in the dry [land], died.
23 २३ और क्या मनुष्य, क्या पशु, क्या रेंगनेवाले जन्तु, क्या आकाश के पक्षी, जो-जो भूमि पर थे, सब पृथ्वी पर से मिट गए; केवल नूह, और जितने उसके संग जहाज में थे, वे ही बच गए।
And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained [alive], and they that [were] with him in the ark.
And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.
The Great Flood
