< Gênesis 7 >

1 Depois disse o Senhor a Noé: Entra tu e toda a tua casa na arca: porque te hei visto justo diante de mim nesta geração.
Then Yahweh said to Noah, “I have seen that out of everyone who is now living, you alone always act righteously. So you and all your family go into the boat.
2 De todo o animal limpo tomarás para ti sete e sete, macho e sua fêmea; mas dos animais que não são limpos, dois, o macho e sua fêmea.
Take with you seven pairs of every kind of animal that I have said I will accept for sacrifices. Take seven males and seven females. Also take a male and a female from every kind of animal that I have said that I will not accept for sacrifices.
3 Também das aves dos céus sete e sete, macho e fêmea, para conservar em vida a semente sobre a face de toda a terra.
Also take seven pairs of every kind of bird from all over the earth to keep them alive.
4 Porque, passados ainda sete dias, farei chover sobre a terra quarenta dias e quarenta noites; e desfarei de sobre a face da terra toda a substância que fiz.
Do this because seven days from now I will cause rain to fall on the earth. It will rain constantly for 40 days and nights. By doing that, I will destroy everything that I have made that is on the earth.”
5 E fez Noé conforme a tudo o que o Senhor lhe ordenara.
Noah did everything that Yahweh told him to do.
6 E era Noé da idade de seiscentos anos, quando o dilúvio das águas veio sobre a terra.
Noah was 600 years old when the flood covered the earth.
7 E entrou Noé, e seus filhos, e sua mulher, e as mulheres de seus filhos com ele na arca, por causa das águas do dilúvio.
Before it started to rain, Noah and his wife and his sons went into the boat to escape from the flood water.
8 Dos animais limpos, e dos animais que não são limpos, e das aves, e de todo o réptil sobre a terra,
Pairs of animals, those that God said that he would accept for sacrifices and those that he would not accept for sacrifices, and pairs of birds and pairs of all the kinds of creatures that move close to the ground,
9 Entraram de dois em dois a Noé na arca, macho e fêmea, como Deus ordenara a Noé.
males and females, came to Noah and then went into the boat, just as God told Noah that they would do.
10 E aconteceu que, passados sete dias, vieram sobre a terra as águas do dilúvio.
Seven days later, it started to rain and a flood began to cover the earth.
11 No ano seiscentos da vida de Noé, no mês segundo, aos dezesete dias do mes, naquele mesmo dia se romperam todas as fontes do grande abismo, e as janelas dos céus se abriram,
When Noah was 600 years old, (on the 17th day of the second month [of that year/late in October]), all the water that is under the surface of the earth burst forth, and it began to rain so hard that it was as though a dam [MET] in the sky burst open.
12 E houve chuva sobre a terra quarenta dias e quarenta noites.
Rain fell on the earth constantly for 40 days and nights.
13 E no mesmo dia entrou Noé, e Sem, e Cão, e Japhet, os filhos de Noé, como também a mulher de Noé, e as três mulheres de seus filhos com ele na arca.
On the day that it started to rain, Noah went into the boat with his wife, and his three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth and their wives.
14 Eles, e todo o animal conforme a sua espécie, e todo o gado conforme a sua espécie, e todo o réptil que se roja sobre a terra conforme a sua espécie, e toda a ave conforme a sua espécie, todo o pássaro de toda a qualidade.
They had already put in the boat some of every kind of wild animal and every kind of livestock and every kind of bird and every other creature that has wings.
15 E de toda a carne, em que havia espírito de vida, entraram de dois em dois a Noé na arca.
Pairs of all animals came to Noah and entered the boat.
16 E os que entraram, macho e fêmea de toda a carne entraram, como Deus lhe tinha ordenado: e o Senhor o fechou por fora.
There was a male and a female of each animal that came to Noah, just as God had said they would do. After they were all in the boat, God shut the door.
17 E esteve o dilúvio quarenta dias sobre a terra, e cresceram as águas, e levantaram a arca, e ela se elevou sobre a terra.
It rained for 40 days and nights, and the flood increased. It flooded until the water lifted the boat above the ground.
18 E prevaleceram as águas, e cresceram grandemente sobre a terra; e a arca andava sobre as águas.
As he water rose higher and higher, the boat floated on the surface of the water.
19 E as águas prevaleceram excessivamente sobre a terra; e todos os altos montes, que havia debaixo de todo o céu, foram cobertos.
The water rose all over the earth until it covered all the mountains.
20 Quinze côvados acima prevaleceram as águas; e os montes foram cobertos.
Even the highest mountains were covered by more than (20 feet/6 meters) of water.
21 E expirou toda a carne que se movia sobre a terra, tanto de ave como de gado e de feras, e de todo o réptil que se roja sobre a terra, e todo o homem.
As a result, every living creature on the surface of the earth died. That included birds and livestock and wild animals and other creatures that scurry across the ground, and all the people.
22 Tudo o que tinha fôlego de espírito de vida em seus narizes, tudo o que havia no seco, morreu.
On the land, (everything that breathed/every living thing) died.
23 Assim foi desfeita toda a substância que havia sobre a face da terra, desde o homem até ao animal, até ao réptil, e até à ave dos céus; e foram extintos da terra: e ficou somente Noé, e os que com ele estavam na arca.
God destroyed every living creature: People and animals and creatures that scurry across the ground and birds. Only Noah and those who were in the boat with him remained alive.
24 E prevaleceram as águas sobre a terra cento e cincoênta dias.
The flood remained like that on the earth for 150 days.
