< Pirmā Mozus 6 >
1 Un notikās, kad cilvēki sāka vairoties virs zemes un tiem meitas piedzima,
When people began to become very numerous all over the earth, and many daughters were born to them,
2 Tad Dieva bērni redzēja cilvēku meitas, ka tās bija skaistas, un ņēma sev sievas, kādas tiem patika.
some of the men who (belonged to/believed in) God saw that some of the women who did not (belong to/believe in) God were very beautiful. So they took whichever ones they chose to become their wives.
3 Un Tas Kungs sacīja: Manam Garam nebūs valdīt iekš cilvēkiem mūžīgi; maldīdamies tie ir miesa; un viņu dienas vēl būs simts un divdesmit gadi.
Then Yahweh said, “[I will] not [allow] my Spirit to keep people alive forever (OR, the breath of life will not remain in people forever). They will die eventually. They will live not more than 120 years before they die (OR, there will be only 120 more years before they die).”
4 Tanīs dienās tie milžu vīri bija virs zemes, un arī pēc, kad Dieva bērni bija iegājuši pie cilvēku meitām un sev bērnus bija dzemdinājuši; šie tie varenie, kas bija no iesākuma, slaveni vīri.
There were [giants called] Nephils who lived on the earth at that time and later. During that time [some of the Nephil] men who (belonged to/believed in) God had sex [EUP] with women who did not (belong to/believe in) God, and they gave birth to children. The Nephils were considered to be heroic fighters, and they became famous.
5 Un Tas Kungs redzēja, ka cilvēku ļaunums augtin auga virs zemes, un viss viņu sirdsprāts un padoms tikai ļauns bija vienmēr.
Yahweh saw that people on the earth had become very wicked, and that everything they thought about evil things continually.
6 Tad Tam Kungam palika žēl, ka Viņš cilvēkus virs zemes bija radījis, un tas Viņam rūpēja sirdī.
Yahweh was sorry that he had made people.
7 Un Tas Kungs sacīja: Es izdeldēšu no zemes visus tos cilvēkus, ko esmu radījis, cilvēkus līdz ar lopiem, tārpiem un putniem apakš debess, jo Man ir žēl, ka Es tos esmu radījis.
So he said, “I will completely destroy the people I made. I will also destroy all the animals and the creatures that scurry across the ground and the birds. None of them will remain on the earth, because I regret that I made them.”
8 Bet Noa atrada žēlastību priekš Tā Kunga acīm.
But Yahweh was pleased with Noah.
9 Šie ir tie stāsti par Noas cilti: Noa bija taisns, nenoziedzīgs vīrs savā ciltī, un Noa staigāja ar Dievu.
This is why: Noah was a man who always acted in a righteous way. No one who lived at that time could criticize him about anything. Noah lived in close fellowship with God.
10 Un Noa dzemdināja trīs dēlus: Šemu, Hamu un Jafetu.
Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Un zeme bija samaitāta Dieva priekšā, un zeme bija pilna varasdarbu.
At that time God considered that everyone else on earth was very wicked, and everywhere on the earth, people [MTY] were acting cruelly and violently toward each other.
12 Un Dievs redzēja zemi, un redzi, tā bija samaitāta; visa miesa bija savu ceļu samaitājusi virs zemes.
God was dismayed when he saw how evil people [MTY] were, because everyone (OR, all living creatures) had begun to behave in an evil way.
13 Un Dievs sacīja uz Nou: visas miesas gals ir nācis Manā priekšā; jo zeme ir pilna no viņu varas darbiem, un redzi, Es nomaitāšu tos līdz ar zemi.
So God said to Noah, “I have decided to destroy everyone, because all over the earth people are acting violently toward each other. So I am about to get rid of them as well as everything else on the earth.
14 Taisi sev šķirstu no priežu koka; ar mājokļiem tev to šķirstu būs taisīt un to apsveķot ar darvu no iekš un āra puses.
[I want you to] make for yourself a large boat from cypress wood. Make rooms inside it. Cover the outside and the inside with tar [to make it (waterproof/so that water cannot get in and sink the boat]).
15 Un tev būs viņu tā taisīt: trīssimt olekšu lai ir tā šķirsta garums, piecdesmit olekšu platums un trīsdesmit olekšu viņa augstums.
This is the size you must make it: It shall be (150 yards/135 meters) long, (25 yards/22.5 meters) wide, and (15 yards/13.5 meters) high.
16 Vienu logu tev būs tam šķirstam taisīt; olekts lielumā tev būs to taisīt virsgalā, un durvis tev būs likt viņa sānos; tev būs viņu taisīt ar trim bēniņiem, apakšēju, vidēju un virsēju.
Make a roof for the boat. Leave a space of about (18 in./.5 meter) between the sides and the roof to let air and light enter (OR, the middle of the roof should be 18 inches higher than the sides). Build the boat with three decks inside, and put a door in one side.
17 Jo, redzi, Es vedīšu ūdensplūdus virs zemes, lai nomaitā apakš debess ikvienu miesu, iekš kā ir dzīva dvaša; visiem, kas virs zemes, būs mirt.
Listen carefully! I am about to cause a flood to occur that will destroy every creature that lives beneath the sky. Everything on the earth will die.
18 Un Es celšu derību ar tevi, un tev būs iet šķirstā līdz ar saviem dēliem un ar savu sievu un ar savu dēlu sievām.
But I will make an agreement with you(sg): You and your wife, your sons and their wives will enter the boat.
19 Un no visa, kas dzīvo, no ikvienas miesas, pa diviem no ikvienas kārtas, tev būs ievest šķirstā, lai tie līdz ar tevi paliek dzīvi; tēviņam un mātītei tiem būs būt.
And I want to save some of all kinds of creatures. So you must also bring two of all living creatures, a male and a female, into the boat with you, so that their species also may remain alive.
20 No putniem pēc savas kārtas un no lopiem pēc savas kārtas un no visiem zemes tārpiem pēc savas kārtas; pa divi no ikvienas kārtas nāks pie tevis, lai paliktu dzīvi.
Two of every kind of creature will come to [in order that by your putting them in the boat] you will keep them alive. They will include two of each kind of bird and each kind of animal and each kind of creature that scurries across the ground.
21 Un ņem pie sevis no visādas barības, ko var ēst, un sakrāj to pie sevis, ka tā tev un viņiem būtu par barību.
You must also take some of every kind of food that you and all these animals will need, and store it in the boat.”
22 Un Noa darīja itin tā, kā Dievs tam bija pavēlējis, - tā viņš darīja.
So Noah did everything that God told him to do.
