1 Мојсијева 6
1 А кад се људи почеше множити на земљи, и кћери им се народише.
And it comes to pass that mankind has begun to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters have been born to them,
2 Видећи синови Божји кћери човечије како су лепе узимаше их за жене које хтеше.
and the sons of God see that they, the daughters of men, [are] beautiful, and they take women for themselves of all whom they have chosen.
3 А Господ рече: Неће се дух мој до века прети с људима, јер су тело; нека им још сто двадесет година.
And YHWH says, “My Spirit does not strive in man for all time, for indeed, he [is] flesh, but his days have been one hundred and twenty years.”
4 А беше тада дивова на земљи; а и после, кад се синови Божји састајаху са кћерима човечијим, па им оне рађаху синове; то беху силни људи, од старине на гласу.
The giants were in the earth in those days, and even afterward, when sons of God come in to the daughters of men, and they have borne to them those who [were] the mighty from of old, the men of renown.
5 И Господ видећи да је неваљалство људско велико на земљи, и да су све мисли срца њиховог свагда само зле,
And YHWH sees that the wickedness of man [is] abundant in the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart [is] only evil every day;
6 Покаја се Господ што је створио човека на земљи, и би му жао у срцу.
and YHWH regrets that He has made man in the earth, and He grieves Himself—to His heart.
7 И рече Господ: Хоћу да истребим са земље људе, које сам створио, од човека до стоке и до ситне животиње и до птица небеских; јер се кајем што сам их створио.
And YHWH says, “I wipe away man whom I have created from off the face of the ground, from man to beast, to creeping thing, and to bird of the heavens, for I have regretted that I have made them.”
8 Али Ноје нађе милост пред Господом.
And Noah found grace in the eyes of YHWH.
9 Ово су догађаји Нојеви: Ноје беше човек праведан и безазлен свог века; по вољи Божјој свагда живљаше Ноје.
These [are] the generations of Noah: Noah [is] a righteous man; he has been perfect among his generations; Noah has habitually walked with God.
10 И роди Ноје три сина: Сима, Хама и Јафета.
And Noah begets three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 А земља се поквари пред Богом, и напуни се земља безакоња.
And the earth is corrupt before God, and the earth is filled [with] violence.
12 И погледа Бог на земљу, а она беше покварена; јер свако тело поквари пут свој на земљи.
And God sees the earth, and behold, it has been corrupted, for all flesh has corrupted its way on the earth.
13 И рече Бог Ноју: Крај сваком телу дође преда ме, јер напунише земљу безакоња; и ево хоћу да их затрем са земљом.
And God said to Noah, “An end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth has been full of violence from their presence; and behold, I am destroying them with the earth.
14 Начини себи ковчег од дрвета гофера, и начини прегратке у ковчегу; и затопи га смолом изнутра и споља.
Make an ark of gopher-wood for yourself; you make rooms within the Ark, and you have covered it from inside and from outside with pitch;
15 И начини га овако; у дужину нека буде триста лаката, у ширину педесет лаката, и у висину тридесет лаката;
and this [is] how you do it: three hundred cubits [is] the length of the Ark, fifty cubits its breadth, and thirty cubits its height;
16 Пусти доста светлости у ковчег; и кров му сведи озго од лакта; и удари врата ковчегу са стране; и начини га на три боја: доњи, други и трећи.
you make a window for the Ark, and you finish it to a cubit from above; and you put the opening of the Ark in its side; you make it [with] lower, second, and third [stories].
17 Јер ево пустићу потоп на земљу да истребим свако тело у коме има жива душа под небом; шта је год на земљи све ће изгинути.
And I, behold, I am bringing in the flood of waters on the earth, to destroy from under the heavens all flesh in which [is] a living spirit; all that [is] in the earth expires.
18 Али ћу с тобом учинити завет свој: и ући ћеш у ковчег ти и синови твоји и жена твоја и жене синова твојих с тобом.
And I have established My covenant with you, and you have come into the Ark—you, and your sons, and your wife, and your son’s wives with you;
19 И од свега живог, од сваког тела, узећеш у ковчег по двоје, да сачуваш у животу са собом, а мушко и женско нека буде.
and of all that lives, of all flesh, you bring two from every [kind] into the Ark, to keep alive with you; they are male and female.
20 Од птица по врстама њиховим, од стоке по врстама њеним, и од свега што се миче на земљи по врстама његовим, од свега по двоје нека уђе с тобом, да их сачуваш у животу.
From the bird after its kind, and from the livestock after its kind, [and] from every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every [kind] they come to you, to keep alive.
21 И узми са собом свега што се једе, и чувај код себе, да буде хране теби и њима.
And you, take for yourself from all food that is eaten; and you have gathered [it] to yourself, and it has been for you and for them for food.”
22 И Ноје учини, како му заповеди Бог, све онако учини.
And Noah does according to all that God has commanded him; so he has done.
The World is Destroyed by Water
