1 Waaqni garuu Nohin, bineensotaa fi horii isa wajjin doonii keessa turan hunda yaadate. Innis bubbee lafatti erge; bishaanichis gad gale.
And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark: and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters were assuaged;
2 Burqaawwan tuujubawwaniitii fi foddaawwan samiiwwanii ni cufaman; bokkaan samii keessaa gad roobus ni caame.
The fountains also of the deep, and the windows of heaven were stopped; and the rain from heaven was restrained.
3 Bishaan sunis suutuma suuta lafa irraa hirʼachaa deemee dhuma bultii dhibba tokkoo fi shantamaatti gad buʼe.
And the waters returned from off the earth, gradually returning; and the waters were abated after the end of the hundred and fifty days.
4 Dooniin sunis guyyaa kudha torbaffaa jiʼa torbaffaatti tulluu Araaraati gubbaa qubate.
And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
5 Bishaanichi hamma jiʼa kurnaffaatti gaduma galaa deeme. Guyyaa jalqaba jiʼa kurnaffaattis mataawwan tulluuwwanii mulʼatan.
And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen;
6 Guyyaa afurtama booddee Nohi foddaa dooniitti baasee ture sana bane;
And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made;
7 innis arraagessa tokko gad dhiise; arraagessi sunis hamma bishaanichi lafa irraa gogutti asii fi achi deddeebiʼaa ture.
And he sent forth a raven which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
8 Ergasii immoo akka bishaanichi lafa irraa hirʼate hubachuuf gugee tokko erge.
He then sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground.
9 Garuu sababii bishaan lafa hunda irra guutee jiruuf gugeen sun iddoo qubatu dhabdee gara Nohi dooniitti deebite. Innis harka isaa gad hiixatee gugee sana gara dooniitti iddoo ofii jirutti ol galche.
But the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him unto the ark; for there was water on the face of the whole earth; then he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her into the ark.
10 Ammas guyyaa torba turee gugee sana doonii keessaa gad baasee erge.
And he stayed yet another seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.
11 Gugeen sunis galgala yommuu gara isaatti deebitetti kunoo, baala ejersaa kan amma kutame afaanitti qabattee turte. Kanaanis Nohi akka bishaanichi gad hirʼate beeke.
And the dove came in to him at the time of the evening; and, lo, an olive-leaf plucked off was in her mouth; so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
12 Ammas guyyaa biraa torba turee gugee sana deebisee erge; gugeen sun garuu lammata gara isaatti hin deebine.
And he stayed yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; but she returned not again unto him any more.
13 Umurii Nohii waggaa dhibba jaʼaa fi tokkoffaatti, guyyaa tokkoffaa jiʼa jalqabaatti, bishaanichi lafa irraa goge. Nohis qadaada doonii sanaa irraa fuudhee ilaalee kunoo akka lafti gogde arge.
And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, that the waters were dried up from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.
14 Guyyaa digdamii torbaffaa jiʼa lammaffaatti lafti guutummaan guutuutti gogde.
And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth perfectly dried up.
15 Waaqnis Nohiin akkana jedhe;
And God spoke unto Noah, saying,
16 “Atii fi niitiin kee, ilmaan keetii fi niitonni ilmaan keetii kottaa doonii keessaa baʼaa.
Go forth from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
17 Akka isaan lafa irratti baayʼataniif, akka isaan horanii lafa irratti baayʼataniif, gosa uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii si wajjin jiran hunda jechuunis simbirroota, bineensotaa fi uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan hunda gad baasi.”
Every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, bring forth with thee; that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
18 Kanaafuu Nohi ilmaan isaatii fi niitii isaa, niitota ilmaan isaa wajjin gad baʼe.
And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him.
19 Bineensonni hundii fi uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan hundinuu, simbirroonni hundi jechuunis wanni lafa irra jiraatu hundi gosuma gosaan doonii sana keessaa gad baʼan.
Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their families, went forth out of the ark.
20 Nohis Waaqayyoof iddoo aarsaa ijaare; horii fi simbirroota qulqulluu hunda keessaa fuudhee iddoo aarsaa sana irratti aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeesse.
And Noah built an altar unto the Lord, and he took of every clean cattle, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt-offerings on the altar.
21 Waaqayyos foolii tolaa sana urgeeffatee garaa isaa keessatti akkana jedhe; “Yoo wanni namni ijoollummaa isaatii jalqabee garaa isaatti yaadu hammina taʼe illee ani sababii namaatiif jedhee lammata lafa hin abaaru. Ani akkan kanaan dura godhe sana deebiʼee uumamawwan jiraatoo hunda hin balleessu.
And the Lord smelled the sweet savour; and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for the sake of man; although the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth: neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
22 “Hamma lafti jirtutti, midhaan facaasuu fi walitti qabuun, dhaamochii fi hoʼi, bonnii fi ganni, halkanii fi guyyaan gonkumaa hin hafan.”
All the while the earth remaineth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.
