Genesis 7
1 Dixitque Dominus ad eum: Ingredere tu, et omnis domus tua in arcam: te enim vidi iustum coram me in generatione hac.
And the Lord God said to Noe, Enter thou and all thy family into the ark, for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
2 Ex omnibus animantibus mundis tolle septena et septena, masculum et feminam: de animantibus vero immundis duo et duo, masculum et feminam.
And of the clean cattle take in to thee sevens, male and female, and of the unclean cattle pairs male and female.
3 Sed et de volatilibus cæli septena et septena, masculum et feminam: ut salvetur semen super faciem universæ terræ.
And of clean flying creatures of the sky sevens, male and female, and of all unclean flying creatures pairs, male and female, to maintain seed on all the earth.
4 Adhuc enim, et post dies septem ego pluam super terram quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus: et delebo omnem substantiam, quam feci, de superficie terræ.
For yet seven days [having passed] I bring rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will blot out every offspring which I have made from the face of all the earth.
5 Fecit ergo Noe omnia, quæ mandaverat ei Dominus.
And Noe [did] all things whatever the Lord God commanded him.
6 Eratque sexcentorum annorum quando diluvii aquæ inundaverunt super terram.
And Noe was six hundred years old when the flood of water was upon the earth.
7 Et ingressus est Noe et filii eius, uxor eius et uxores filiorum eius cum eo in arcam propter aquas diluvii.
And then went in Noe and his sons and his wife, and his sons' wives with him into the ark, because of the water of the flood.
8 De animantibus quoque mundis et immundis, et de volucribus, et ex omni, quod movetur super terram,
And of clean flying creatures and of unclean flying creatures, and of clean cattle and of unclean cattle, and of all things that creep upon the earth,
9 duo et duo ingressa sunt ad Noe in arcam, masculus et femina, sicut præceperat Dominus Noe.
pairs went in to Noe into the ark, male and female, as God commanded Noe.
10 Cumque transissent septem dies, aquæ diluvii inundaverunt super terram.
And it came to pass after the seven days that the water of the flood came upon the earth.
11 Anno sexcentesimo vitæ Noe, mense secundo, septimodecimo die mensis, rupti sunt omnes fontes abyssi magnæ, et cataractæ cæli apertæ sunt:
In the six hundredth year of the life of Noe, in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, on this day all the fountains of the abyss were broken up, and the flood-gates of heaven were opened.
12 et facta est pluvia super terram quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus.
And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 In articulo diei illius ingressus est Noe, et Sem, et Cham, et Iapheth filii eius: uxor illius, et tres uxores filiorum eius cum eis in arcam:
On that very day entered Noe, Sem, Cham, Japheth, the sons of Noe, and the wife of Noe, and the three wives of his sons with him into the ark.
14 ipsi et omne animal secundum genus suum, universaque iumenta in genere suo, et omne quod movetur super terram in genere suo, cunctumque volatile secundum genus suum, universæ aves, omnesque volucres
And all the wild beasts after their kind, and all cattle after their kind, and every reptile moving itself on the earth after its kind, and every flying bird after its kind,
15 ingressæ sunt ad Noe in arcam, bina et bina ex omni carne, in qua erat spiritus vitæ.
went in to Noe into the ark, pairs, male and female of all flesh in which is the breath of life.
16 Et quæ ingressa sunt, masculus et femina ex omni carne introierunt, sicut præceperat ei Deus: et inclusit eum Dominus deforis.
And they that entered went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded Noe, and the Lord God shut the ark outside of him.
17 Factumque est diluvium quadraginta diebus super terram: et multiplicatæ sunt aquæ, et elevaverunt arcam in sublime a terra.
And the flood was upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and the water abounded greatly and bore up the ark, and it was lifted on high from off the earth.
18 Vehementer enim inundaverunt: et omnia repleverunt in superficie terræ: porro arca ferebatur super aquas.
And the water prevailed and abounded exceedingly upon the earth, and the ark was borne upon the water.
19 Et aquæ prævaluerunt nimis super terram: opertique sunt omnes montes excelsi sub universo cælo.
And the water prevailed exceedingly upon the earth, and covered all the high mountains which were under heaven.
20 Quindecim cubitis altior fuit aqua super montes, quos operuerat.
Fifteen cubits upwards was the water raised, and it covered all the high mountains.
21 Consumptaque est omnis caro quæ movebatur super terram, volucrum, animantium, bestiarum, omniumque reptilium, quæ reptant super terram: universi homines,
And there died all flesh that moved upon the earth, of flying creatures and cattle, and of wild beasts, and every reptile moving upon the earth, and every man.
22 et cuncta, in quibus spiraculum vitæ est in terra, mortua sunt.
And all things which have the breath of life, and whatever was on the dry land, died.
23 Et delevit omnem substantiam, quæ erat super terram, ab homine usque ad pecus, tam reptile quam volucres cæli: et deleta sunt de terra: remansit autem solus Noe, et qui cum eo erant in arca.
And [God] blotted out every offspring which was upon the face of the earth, both man and beast, and reptiles, and birds of the sky, and they were blotted out from the earth, and Noe was left alone, and those with him in the ark.
24 Obtinueruntque aquæ terram centum quinquaginta diebus.
And the water was raised over the earth an hundred and fifty days.
