Gênesis 8
1 E lembrou-se Deus de Noé, e de toda a besta, e de todo o animal, e de toda a rêz que com ele estava na arca: e Deus fez passar um vento sobre a terra, e aquietaram-se as águas.
And God remembered Noah, and all the animals, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark; and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided.
2 Cerraram-se também as fontes do abismo, e as janelas dos céus, e a chuva dos céus deteve-se.
And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were closed, and the pour of rain from heaven was stopped.
3 E as águas tornaram de sobre a terra continuamente, e ao cabo de cento e cincoênta dias as águas minguaram.
And the waters retired from the earth, continually retiring; and in the course of a hundred and fifty days the waters abated.
4 E a arca repousou, no sétimo mes, no dia dezesete do mes, sobre os montes de Ararat.
And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.
5 E foram as águas indo e minguando até ao décimo mes: no décimo mes, no primeiro dia do mes, apareceram os cumes dos montes.
And the waters abated continually until the tenth month: in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.
6 E aconteceu que, ao cabo de quarenta dias, abriu Noé a janela da arca que tinha feito.
And it came to pass at the end of forty days that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made.
7 E soltou um corvo, que saiu, indo e voltando, até que as águas se secaram de sobre a terra.
And he sent out the raven, which went forth going to and fro, until the waters were dried from the earth.
8 Depois soltou uma pomba, a vêr-se as águas tinham minguado de sobre a face da terra.
And he sent out the dove from him, to see if the waters had become low on the ground.
9 A pomba porém não achou repouso para a planta do seu pé, e voltou a ele para a arca; porque as águas estavam sobre a face de toda a terra: e ele estendeu a sua mão, e tomou-a, e meteu-a consigo na arca.
But the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot, and returned to him into the ark; for the waters were on the whole earth; and he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ark.
10 E esperou ainda outros sete dias, e tornou a enviar a pomba fora da arca.
And he waited yet other seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.
11 E a pomba voltou a ele sobre a tarde; e eis, arrancada, uma folha de oliveira no seu bico: e conheceu Noé que as águas tinham minguado sobre a terra.
And the dove came to him at eventide; and behold, in her beak was an olive-leaf plucked off; and Noah knew that the waters had become low on the earth.
12 Então esperou ainda outros sete dias; e enviou fora a pomba, mas não tornou mais a ele.
And he waited yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; but she returned no more to him.
13 E aconteceu que no ano seiscentos e um, no mês primeiro, no primeiro dia do mes, as águas se secaram de sobre a terra: então Noé tirou a cobertura da arca, e olhou, e eis que a face da terra estava enxuta.
And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, that the waters were dried up from the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the surface of the ground was dried.
14 E no segundo mes, aos vinte e sete dias do mes, a terra estava seca.
And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
15 Então falou Deus a Noé, dizendo:
And God spoke to Noah, saying,
16 Sai da arca, tu, e tua mulher, e teus filhos, e as mulheres de teus filhos contigo.
Go out of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
17 Todo o animal que está contigo, de toda a carne, de ave, e de gado, e de todo o réptil que se roja sobre a terra traze fora contigo; e povôem abundantemente a terra, e frutifiquem, e se multipliquem sobre a terra.
Bring forth with thee every animal which is with thee, of all flesh, fowl as well as cattle, and all the creeping things which creep on the earth, that they may swarm on the earth, and may be fruitful and multiply on the earth.
18 Então saiu Noé, e seus filhos, e sua mulher, e as mulheres de seus filhos com ele,
And Noah went out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him.
19 Todo o animal, todo o réptil, e toda a ave, e tudo o que se move sobre a terra, conforme as suas famílias, saiu para fora da arca.
All the animals, all the creeping things, and all the fowl — everything that moves on the earth, after their kinds, went out of the ark.
20 E edificou Noé um altar ao Senhor; e tomou de todo o animal limpo, e de toda a ave limpa, e ofereceu holocaustos sobre o altar.
And Noah built an altar to Jehovah; and took of every clean animal, and of all clean fowl, and offered up burnt-offerings on the altar.
21 E o Senhor cheirou o suave cheiro, e disse o Senhor em seu coração: Não tornarei mais a amaldiçoar a terra por causa do homem; porque a imaginação do coração do homem é má desde a sua meninice, nem tornarei mais a ferir todo o vivente, como fiz.
And Jehovah smelled the sweet odour. And Jehovah said in his heart, I will no more henceforth curse the ground on account of Man, for the thought of Man's heart is evil from his youth; and I will no more smite every living thing, as I have done.
22 Enquanto a terra durar, sementeira e sega, e frio e calor, e verão e inverno, e dia e noite, não cessarão.
Henceforth, all the days of the earth, seed [time] and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.
