Genesis 7
1 Dixitque Dominus ad eum: Ingredere tu et omnis domus tua in arcam: te enim vidi justum coram me in generatione hac.
And Jehovah saith to Noah, 'Come in, thou and all thy house, unto the ark, for thee I have 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.
of all the clean beasts thou dost take to thee seven pairs, a male and its female; and of the beasts which are not clean two, a male and its female;
3 Sed et de volatilibus cæli septena et septena, masculum et feminam: ut salvetur semen super faciem universæ terræ.
also, of fowl of the heavens seven pairs, a male and a female, to keep alive seed on the face of 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 after other seven days I am sending rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and have wiped away all the substance that I have made from off the face of the ground.'
5 Fecit ergo Noë omnia quæ mandaverat ei Dominus.
And Noah doth according to all that Jehovah hath commanded him:
6 Eratque sexcentorum annorum quando diluvii aquæ inundaverunt super terram.
and Noah [is] a son of six hundred years, and the deluge of waters hath been upon the earth.
7 Et ingressus est Noë et filii ejus, uxor ejus et uxores filiorum ejus cum eo in arcam propter aquas diluvii.
And Noah goeth in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, unto the ark, from the presence of the waters of the deluge;
8 De animantibus quoque mundis et immundis, et de volucribus, et ex omni quod movetur super terram,
of the clean beasts and of the beasts that [are] not clean, and of the fowl, and of every thing that is creeping upon the ground,
9 duo et duo ingressa sunt ad Noë in arcam, masculus et femina, sicut præceperat Dominus Noë.
two by two they have come in unto Noah, unto the ark, a male and a female, as God hath commanded Noah.
10 Cumque transissent septem dies, aquæ diluvii inundaverunt super terram.
And it cometh to pass, after the seventh of the days, that waters of the deluge have been on the earth.
11 Anno sexcentesimo vitæ Noë, 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 Noah, in the second month, in the seventeenth day of the month, in this day have been broken up all fountains of the great deep, and the net-work of the heavens hath been opened,
12 et facta est pluvia super terram quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus.
and the shower is on the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 In articulo diei illius ingressus est Noë, et Sem, et Cham, et Japheth filii ejus; uxor illius, et tres uxores filiorum ejus cum eis in arcam:
In this self-same day went in Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, sons of Noah, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them, unto the ark;
14 ipsi et omne animal secundum genus suum, universaque jumenta in genere suo, et omne quod movetur super terram in genere suo, cunctumque volatile secundum genus suum, universæ aves, omnesque volucres,
they, and every living creature after its kind, and every beast after its kind, and every creeping thing that is creeping on the earth after its kind, and every fowl after its kind, every bird — every wing.
15 ingressæ sunt ad Noë in arcam, bina et bina ex omni carne, in qua erat spiritus vitæ.
And they come in unto Noah, unto the ark, two by two of all the flesh in which [is] a living spirit;
16 Et quæ ingressa sunt, masculus et femina ex omni carne introierunt, sicut præceperat ei Deus: et inclusit eum Dominus deforis.
and they that are coming in, male and female of all flesh, have come in as God hath commanded him, and Jehovah doth close [it] for him.
17 Factumque est diluvium quadraginta diebus super terram: et multiplicatæ sunt aquæ, et elevaverunt arcam in sublime a terra.
And the deluge is forty days on the earth, and the waters multiply, and lift up the ark, and it is raised up from off the earth;
18 Vehementer enim inundaverunt, et omnia repleverunt in superficie terræ: porro arca ferebatur super aquas.
and the waters are mighty, and multiply exceedingly upon the earth; and the ark goeth on the face of the waters.
19 Et aquæ prævaluerunt nimis super terram: opertique sunt omnes montes excelsi sub universo cælo.
And the waters have been very very mighty on the earth, and covered are all the high mountains which [are] under the whole heavens;
20 Quindecim cubitis altior fuit aqua super montes, quos operuerat.
fifteen cubits upwards have the waters become mighty, and the mountains are covered;
21 Consumptaque est omnis caro quæ movebatur super terram, volucrum, animantium, bestiarum, omniumque reptilium, quæ reptant super terram: universi homines,
and expire doth all flesh that is moving on the earth, among fowl, and among cattle, and among beasts, and among all the teeming things which are teeming on the earth, and all mankind;
22 et cuncta, in quibus spiraculum vitæ est in terra, mortua sunt.
all in whose nostrils [is] breath of a living spirit — of all that [is] in the dry land — have 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 Noë, et qui cum eo erant in arca.
And wiped away is all the substance that is on the face of the ground, from man unto beast, unto creeping thing, and unto fowl of the heavens; yea, they are wiped away from the earth, and only Noah is left, and those who [are] with him in the ark;
24 Obtinueruntque aquæ terram centum quinquaginta diebus.
and the waters are mighty on the earth a hundred and fifty days.
The Great Flood
