Бытие 7
1 И рече Господь Бог к Ною: вниди ты и весь дом твой в ковчег, яко тя видех праведна предо Мною в роде сем:
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 от скотов же чистых введи к себе седмь седмь, мужеский пол и женский: от скотов же нечистых два два, мужеский пол и женский:
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 и от птиц небесных чистых седмь седмь, мужеский пол и женский: и от всех птиц нечистых две две, мужеский пол и женский, препитати семя по всей земли:
Also take seven pairs of every kind of bird from all over the earth to keep them alive.
4 еще бо дний седмь, Аз наведу дождь на землю четыредесять дний и четыредесять нощей: и потреблю всякое востание, еже сотворих, от лица всея земли.
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 И сотвори Ное вся, елика заповеда ему Господь Бог.
Noah did everything that Yahweh told him to do.
6 Ное же бе лет шести сот, и потоп водный бысть на земли.
Noah was 600 years old when the flood covered the earth.
7 Вниде же Ное и сынове его, и жена его и жены сынов его с ним в ковчег, воды ради потопа.
Before it started to rain, Noah and his wife and his sons went into the boat to escape from the flood water.
8 И от птиц чистых и от птиц нечистых, и от скот чистых и от скот нечистых, (и от зверей, ) и от всех гадов пресмыкающихся по земли,
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 два два внидоша к Ною в ковчег, мужеский пол и женский, якоже заповеда (Господь) Бог Ною.
males and females, came to Noah and then went into the boat, just as God told Noah that they would do.
10 И бысть по седми днех, и вода потопная бысть на земли.
Seven days later, it started to rain and a flood began to cover the earth.
11 В шестьсотное лето в житии Ноеве, втораго месяца, в двадесять седмый день месяца, в день той разверзошася вси источницы бездны, и хляби небесныя отверзошася:
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 и бысть дождь на землю четыредесять дний и четыредесять нощей.
Rain fell on the earth constantly for 40 days and nights.
13 В день той вниде Ное, Сим, Хам, Иафеф, сынове Ноевы, и жена Ноева, и три жены сынов его с ним в ковчег.
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 И вси зверие земнии по роду, и вси скоти по роду, и всякий гад движущийся на земли по роду, и всякая птица пернатая по роду своему,
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 внидоша к Ною в ковчег два два, мужеский пол и женский, от всякия плоти, в нейже есть дух животный:
Pairs of all animals came to Noah and entered the boat.
16 и входящая мужеский пол и женский от всякия плоти, внидоша к Ною в ковчег, якоже заповеда Господь Бог Ною: и затвори Господь Бог ковчег отвне его.
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 И бысть потоп четыредесять дний и четыредесять нощей на земли, и умножися вода и взя ковчег, и возвысися от земли:
It rained for 40 days and nights, and the flood increased. It flooded until the water lifted the boat above the ground.
18 и возмогаше вода, и умножашеся зело на земли, и ношашеся ковчег верху воды.
As he water rose higher and higher, the boat floated on the surface of the water.
19 Вода же возмогаше зело зело на земли: и покры вся горы высокия, яже бяху под небесем:
The water rose all over the earth until it covered all the mountains.
20 пятьнадесять лактей горе возвысися вода, и покры вся горы высокия.
Even the highest mountains were covered by more than (20 feet/6 meters) of water.
21 И умре всякая плоть движущаяся по земли птиц и скотов и зверей, и всякий гад движущийся на земли, и всякий человек,
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 и вся елика имут дыхание жизни, и все еже бе на суши умре.
On the land, (everything that breathed/every living thing) died.
23 И потребися всякое востание, еже бяше на лицы всея земли, от человека даже до скота и гадов и птиц небесных, и потребишася от земли: и оста Ное един, и иже с ним в ковчезе.
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 И возвысися вода над землею дний сто пятьдесят.
The flood remained like that on the earth for 150 days.
The Great Flood
