उत्पत्ति 7

1 परमप्रभुले नोआलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तँ र तेरा सबै जहान जहाजभित्र आओ । किनकि मेरो सामु यो पुस्तामा मैले तँलाई धर्मी देखेको छु ।

And the Lord said to Noah, Take all your family and go into the ark, for you only in this generation have I seen to be upright.

2 हरेक जातका शुद्ध पशुबाट तैँले आफूसित सात भाले र सात पोथी ल्याउनू । अशुद्ध पशुहरूबाट चाहिँ तैँले दुईवटा अर्थात् भाले र पोथी ल्याउनू ।

Of every clean beast you will take seven males and seven females, and of the beasts which are not clean, two, the male and his female;

3 अनि आकाशका पक्षीहरूबाट तिनीहरूको जातिलाई पृथ्वीको सतहमा जीवित राख्‍न सात जोडी भाले र पोथी ल्याउनू ।

And of the birds of the air, seven males and seven females, so that their seed may still be living on the face of the earth.

4 किनकि अबको सात दिनमा म चालिस दिन र चालिस रात पृथ्‍वीमा पानी बर्साउनेछु । मैले बनाएको हरेक जीवित प्राणीलाई म पृथ्वीको सतहबाट नष्‍ट गर्नेछु ।”

For after seven days I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, for the destruction of every living thing which I have made on the face of the earth.

5 परमप्रभुले आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ नोआले सबै गरे ।

And Noah did everything which the Lord said he was to do.

6 पृथ्वीमा जलप्रलय हुँदा नोआ छ सय वर्षका थिए ।

And Noah was six hundred years old when the waters came flowing over all the earth.

7 जलप्रलयको पानीको कारणले नोआ, तिनका छोराहरू, तिनकी पत्‍नी र तिनका बुहारीहरू सँगसँगै जहाजभित्र प्रवेश गरे ।

And Noah, with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark because of the flowing of the waters.

8 शुद्ध र अशुद्ध पशुहरू, पक्षीहरू र भुइँमा घस्रने हरेक प्राणी, परमेश्‍वरले नोआलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ

Of clean beasts, and of beasts which are not clean, and of birds, and of everything which goes on the earth,

9 भाले र पोथी गरी जोडी-जोडी नोआकहाँ आए र जहाजभित्र प्रवेश गरे ।

In twos, male and female, they went into the ark with Noah, as God had said.

10 सात दिनपछि पृथ्वीमा जलप्रलयको पानी पर्न लाग्यो ।

And after the seven days, the waters came over all the earth.

11 नोआको जीवनको छ सय वर्षको दोस्रो महिनाको सत्रौँ दिनमा विशाल अगाधका मूलहरू फुटे र आकाशका झ्यालहरू खुले ।

In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep came bursting through, and the windows of heaven were open;

12 चालिस दिन र चालिस रातसम्म पृथ्वीमा पानी परिरह्‍यो ।

And rain came down on the earth for forty days and forty nights.

13 त्यही दिनमा नोआ, तिनका छोराहरू शेम, हाम र येपेत अनि तिनकी पत्‍नी र तिनका तिन जना बुहारी जहाजभित्र प्रवेश गरे ।

On the same day Noah, with Shem, Ham, and Japheth, his sons, and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark;

14 हरेक जङ्गली जनावरको जात-जातअनुसार, हरेक पाल्तु पशुको जात-जातअनुसार, भुइँमा घस्रने हरेक घस्रने जन्तुको जात-जातअनुसार र पखेटा भएको हरेक पक्षीको जात-जातअनुसार सँगसँगै तिनीहरू जहाजभित्र प्रवेश गरे ।

And with them, every sort of beast and cattle, and every sort of thing which goes on the earth, and every sort of bird.

15 जीवनको सास हुने सबै प्राणीका जोडी-जोडी नोआकहाँ आएर जहाजभित्र प्रवेश गरे ।

They went with Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh in which is the breath of life.

16 भित्र प्रवेश गरेका प्राणीहरू सबैका भाले र पोथी थिए । परमेश्‍वरले आज्ञा दिनुभएझैँ तिनीहरू भित्र प्रवेश गरे ।

Male and female of all flesh went in, as God had said, and the ark was shut by the Lord.

17 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुले ढोका बन्द गरिदिनुभयो । अनि पृथ्वीमा चालिस दिनसम्म जलप्रलय भयो र पानीले जहाजलाई जमिनबाट माथि उचाल्यो ।

And for forty days the waters were over all the earth; and the waters were increased so that the ark was lifted up high over the earth.

18 पानीले सारा पृथ्वीलाई पूर्ण रूपमा ढाक्यो अनि जहाज पानीको सतहमाथि तैरियो ।

And the waters overcame everything and were increased greatly on the earth, and the ark was resting on the face of the waters.

19 आकाशमुनिका सबै अग्‍ला-अग्‍ला पर्वतहरूलाई ढाक्‍ने गरी पृथ्वीमा पानी चौपट्टै भरियो ।

And the waters overcame everything on the earth; and all the mountains under heaven were covered.

20 पानी पर्वतहरूको टुप्पोमा सात मिटर माथिसम्म आयो ।

The waters went fifteen cubits higher, till all the mountains were covered.

21 पक्षीहरू, पालिने पशुहरू, जङ्गली जनावरहरू, जमिनमा ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा बसोबास गर्ने सबै प्राणी र सबै मानव-जाति जो पृथ्वीमा चलहल गर्थे, ती सबै मरे ।

And destruction came on every living thing moving on the earth, birds and cattle and beasts and everything which went on the earth, and every man.

22 जमिनमा बस्‍ने सबै जीवित प्राणी जसले आ-आफ्ना नाकबाट जीवनको सास फेर्थे, ती सबै मरे ।

Everything on the dry land, in which was the breath of life, came to its end.

23 यसरी, मानव-जातिदेखि ठुला जनावरहरू र घस्रने जन्तुसम्म पृथ्वीको सतहमा भएको हरेक प्राणीसाथै आकाशका चराचुरुङ्गीहरू मासिए । तिनीहरू सबै नै पृथ्वीबाट नष्‍ट गरिए । नोआ र तिनीसित जहाजमा हुनेहरू मात्र बाँचे ।

Every living thing on the face of all the earth, man and cattle and things moving on the face of the earth, and birds of the air, came to destruction: only Noah and those who were with him in the ark, were kept from death.

24 एक सय पचास दिनसम्म पृथ्वीमा पानी घटेन ।

And the waters were over the earth a hundred and fifty days.

The Great Flood
