Bilowgii 8
1 Oo Ilaah wuxuu xusuustay Nuux, iyo wixii noolaa, iyo xoolihii doonnidii kula jiray isagii oo dhan; oo Ilaah dabayl buu dhulka dul mariyey, biyihiina way dhinmeen;
But God hadn't forgotten about Noah and all the wild animals and livestock with him in the ark. God sent a wind to blow over the earth, and the floodwaters started to drop.
2 ilihii moolka iyo dariishadihii samaduna way awdmeen; roobkii samadana waa la joojiyey;
The subterranean waters were closed off, and the heavy rainfall was stopped.
3 biyihiina had iyo goorba dhulkay ka noqonayeen, oo boqol iyo konton maalmood dabadood ayaa biyihii dhinmeen.
The floodwaters steadily receded from the earth. They had gone down so much that by 150 days after the flood began
4 Oo bishii toddobaad, maalinteedii toddoba iyo tobnaad, ayay doonnidii ku fadhiisatay buuraha Araarad.
the ark grounded on the mountains of Ararat. This happened on the seventeenth day of the seventh month.
5 Biyihiina way sii dhinmayeen ilaa bishii tobnaad. Bishii tobnaad, maalinteedii kowaad, ayaa buuraha dushoodii la arkay.
The waters continued to drop so that by the first day of the tenth month the tops of mountains could be seen.
6 Waxaana dhacday in afartan maalmood dabadood Nuux furay dariishaddii doonnidii uu sameeyey;
Forty days later Noah opened the window he'd made in the ark,
7 oo wuxuu dibadda u diray tuke, hor iyo dib buuna u duulayay, ilaa intay biyihii ka engegeen dhulka dushiisa.
and sent a raven out. It flew back and forth until the water on the earth had dried up.
8 Dabadeedna wuxuu diray qoolley si uu u ogaado bal in biyihii dhulka dushiisa ka yaraadeen iyo in kale;
Then he sent a dove out to see if the waters had gone down enough to expose dry ground.
9 laakiin qoolleydii meel ay cagta dhigto ayay weyday, kolkaasay Nuux xaggiisii ku soo noqotay iyo xaggii doonnidii, maxaa yeelay, biyihii baa dhulka oo dhan dul joogay; kolkaasuu gacanta dibadda u bixiyey, oo soo qabtay iyadii, oo soo geliyey doonnidii.
But the dove couldn't find anywhere to land. So it came back to Noah in the ark because water was still covering the whole earth. He reached out his hand, picked up the dove, and took it back into the ark with him.
10 Kolkaasuu toddoba maalmood oo kale sugay; markaasuu mar kale qoolleydii doonnidii ka diray;
He waited another seven days and sent the dove out from the ark again.
11 qoolleydiina waxay isagii ku soo noqotay fiidkii; oo afkana waxay ku wadatay caleen saytuun oo qoyan; kolkaasuu Nuux ogaaday in biyihii dhulka ka yaraadeen.
When it came back to him in the evening it had a freshly-picked olive leaf in its beak, so Noah knew the floodwaters were mainly gone from the earth.
12 Kolkaasuu toddoba maalmood oo kale sugay; dabadeedna qoolleydii buu diray; iyadiina mar dambe kuma ay soo noqon.
Again he waited another seven days and sent the dove out again, but this time it didn't return to him.
13 Oo waxaana dhacday sannaddii lix boqol iyo kowaad, bishii kowaad, maalinteedii kowaad, inay biyihii dhulka ka engegeen: Nuuxna daboolkii buu doonnidii ka qaaday, wuuna fiiriyey, oo bal eeg, dhulka dushiisu way engegnayd.
By now Noah was 601, and by the first day of the first month, the floodwaters on the earth were gone. Noah pulled back the ark's covering and saw that the ground was drying out.
14 Oo bishii labaad, maalinteedii toddoba iyo labaatanaad, ayaa dhulka engegay.
By the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.
15 Ilaahna Nuux buu la hadlay, isagoo leh,
Then God told Noah,
16 Doonnida ka baxa adiga, iyo naagtaada, iyo wiilashaada, iyo naagaha wiilashaada ee kula jiraba.
“Leave the ark, you and your wife, your sons and their wives.
17 Soo bixi wax kasta oo nool oo kula jooga, inta jidhka leh oo dhan, kuwaas oo ah haadda, iyo xoolaha, iyo waxa dhulka gurguurta oo dhan; si ay dhulka ugu bataan, oo ay wax badan u dhalaan, oo ay dhulka ugu tarmaan.
Let all the animals go—the birds, the wild animals, the creatures that run along the ground—so that they can breed and increase their numbers on the earth.”
18 Nuuxna wuu baxay, isagii iyo wiilashiisii, iyo naagtiisii, iyo naagihii wiilashiisa ee la jirayba.
So Noah and his wife, his sons and their wives, left the ark.
19 Dugaag kasta, iyo wax kasta oo gurguurta, iyo haad kasta, iyo wax alla wixii dhulka ku dhaqaaqaaba, jinsigoodii ayay doonnidii kala soo baxeen.
All the animals, all the creatures that run along the ground, all the birds—everything that lives on land—also left, each kind leaving together.
20 Nuuxna meel allabari buu Rabbiga u dhisay; xayawaankii daahirka ahaa iyo haaddii daahirka ahaydba, intuu wax ka qaatay, ayuu allabaryo la gubo ku bixiyey meeshii allabariga dusheeda.
Noah built an altar, and sacrificed some of the clean animals and birds as a burnt offering.
21 Rabbiguna wuxuu uriyey caraftii udgoonayd, kolkaasuu Rabbigu iska yidhi qalbigiisa, Mar dambe dadka aawadiis dhulka uma habaari doono, maxaa yeelay, malaha qalbiga dadku waa shar tan iyo yaraantiisa; mar dambena ma aan dili doono wax kasta oo nool sidii aan yeelay.
The Lord accepted the sacrifice, and said to himself, “I won't ever again curse the ground because of human beings, even though every single thought in their minds is evil from childhood. I won't ever destroy all life again as I have just done.
22 Intuu dhulku jiro, beer abuurid, iyo beer goosasho, iyo qabow iyo kulayl, iyo gu iyo jiilaal, iyo habeen iyo maalin midnaba ma joogsan doono.
As long as the earth exists, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, will never come to an end.”
