Kenehi 7
1 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Noa, haere mai koutou ko tou whare katoa ki roto ki te aaka; kua kite hoki ahau i a koe he tika ki toku aroaro i tenei whakatupuranga.
And God said to Noah, "Come with all of your household into the ship, for I have seen your righteousness before me in this generation.
2 Tangohia e koe etahi o nga kirehe pokekore, kia takiwhitu, te toa me tana uha: o nga kararehe poke hoki, kia takirua, te toa me tana uha:
You shall take seven pairs of every clean animal with you, the male and his female. Of the animals that are not clean, take two, the male and his female.
3 Me nga manu ano hoki o te rangi, kia takiwhitu, te toa me te uha; kia ora ai he uri ki runga ki te mata o te whenua katoa.
Also of the clean flying creatures of the sky, seven pairs, a male and a female, and of all the unclean flying creatures, one pair, a male and a female, to preserve their offspring on the surface of all the earth.
4 Kia whitu ake hoki nga ra ka meatia e ahau kia ua te ua ki runga ki te whenua, kia wha tekau nga ra, kia wha tekau nga po; a ka whakangaromia atu e ahau i runga i te mata o te whenua nga mea ora katoa i hanga e ahau.
In seven days, I will cause it to rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights. Every living thing that I have made, I will destroy from the surface of the ground."
5 A rite tonu ta Noa i mea ai ki a Ihowa katoa i whakahau ai ki a ia.
Noah did everything that God commanded him.
6 Na e ono rau nga tau o Noa i te putanga mai o te waipuke ki runga ki te whenua.
Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came on the earth.
7 Na ka tomo a Noa ratou tahi ko ana tama, ko tana wahine, ko nga wahine hoki a ana tama, ki roto ki te aaka, i te wehi i nga wai o te waipuke.
Noah went into the ship with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Me etahi o nga kirehe pokekore, o nga kirehe poke hoki, o nga manu, o nga mea katoa ano hoki e ngokingoki ana i runga i te whenua;
Clean animals, animals that are not clean, flying creatures, and everything that crawls on the ground
9 I haere tatakirua ratou ki roto ki te aaka ki a Noa, te toa me te uha, i pera tonu me ta te Atua i whakahau ai ki a Noa.
went by pairs to Noah into the ship, male and female, as God commanded Noah.
10 Na i muri iho i nga ra e whitu ka puta mai nga wai o te waipuke ki runga ki te whenua.
It happened after the seven days, that the waters of the flood came on the earth.
11 No te ono rau o nga tau o te oranga o Noa, no te rua o nga marama, no te tekau ma whitu o nga ra o te marama, no taua rangi ano i pakaru mai ai nga matapuna katoa o te rire nui, a ka whakatuwheratia nga matapihi o te rangi.
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep were burst open, and the floodgates of the sky were opened.
12 A e wha tekau nga ra, e wha tekau nga po, i ua ai te ua ki runga ki te whenua.
The rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 No taua rangi pu ano i tomo ai a Noa, ratou ko Hema, ko Hama, ko Iapeta, nga tama a Noa, ratou tahi ko te wahine a Noa, ko nga wahine tokotoru ano hoki a ana tama, ki roto ki te aaka;
In the same day Noah, and Shem, Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, entered into the ship;
14 Ratou ko nga kirehe mohoao katoa o ia ahua, o ia ahua, ko nga kararehe katoa o ia ahua, o ia ahua, ko nga mea ngoki katoa e ngokingoki nei i runga i te whenua, o ia ahua, o ia ahua, me nga manu katoa, o ia ahua, o ia ahua, me nga mea whai parira u katoa, o ia ahua, o ia ahua.
they, and every wild animal after its kind, and every tame animal after their kind, every creature that crawls on the earth after its kind, and every flying creature after its kind, everything with wings.
15 Na ka haere ki roto ki te aaka ki a Noa, tatakirua o nga kikokiko katoa, o nga mea whai wairua ora.
They went to Noah into the ship, by pairs of all flesh with the breath of life in them.
16 Ko nga mea i haere, i haere he toa he uha o nga kikokiko katoa, he pera tonu me ta te Atua i whakahau ai ki a ai: a tutakina ana ia e Ihowa ki roto.
Those who went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him; and God shut him in.
17 A e wha tekau nga ra o te waipuke ki runga ki te whenua; a ka nui haere nga wai, ka whakamanutia ake te aaka, a ka maiangi ake ki runga i te whenua.
The flood was forty days on the earth. The waters increased, and lifted up the ship, and it was lifted up above the earth.
18 Na ka kaha nga wai, a ka tino nui haere ki runga ki te whenua; a ka tere te aaka i runga i te kare o nga wai.
The waters prevailed, and increased greatly on the earth; and the ship floated on the surface of the waters.
19 Na kua tino kaha rawa nga wai ki runga ki te whenua; a ka taupokina nga maunga teitei katoa i raro i te rangi, a puta noa.
And the waters rose very high on the earth. And all the high mountains that were under the whole sky were covered.
20 Kotahi tekau ma rima nga whatianga i pari ake ai nga wai; a taupokina ana nga maunga.
The waters rose and covered the highest mountains to a depth of more than twenty-six feet.
21 Na ka mate nga kikokiko katoa i korikori i runga i te whenua; te manu, te kararehe, te kirehe, nga mea ngoki katoa hoki i ngokingoki i runga i te whenua, me nga tangata katoa:
And all flesh died that moved on the earth, flying creatures, and tame animals, and wild animals, and every creature that crawls on the earth, and all humankind.
22 Ko nga mea katoa kei roto nei i o ratou pongaihu te manawa ora, o nga mea katoa i te tuawhenua, i mate.
All in whose nostrils breathed the breath of life, of all that was on the dry land, died.
23 A ngaro iho nga mea ora katoa i runga i te mata o te whenua, te tangata, te kararehe, nga mea ngokingoki, me te manu o te rangi; i whakangaromia atu ratou i runga i te whenua: a toe ake ko te kotahi o Noa, me nga mea i a ia, i roto i te aaka.
Every living thing was destroyed that was on the surface of the ground, including people, animals, crawling creatures, and flying creatures of the sky. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ship.
24 A kotahi rau e rima tekau nga ra i huri ai nga wai ki runga ki te whenua.
The waters prevailed on the earth one hundred fifty days.
