Senesi 8
1 Pea naʻe manatu ʻae ʻOtua kia Noa, mo e meʻa moʻui kotoa pē, mo e fanga manu kotoa pē ʻaia naʻe ʻi he vaka mo ia: pea naʻe pule ʻe he ʻOtua ke ʻalu atu ʻae matangi ʻi he funga ʻo māmani, pea naʻe matuku ai ʻae ngaahi vai;
And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark: and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters were assuaged;
2 Naʻe tāpuni foki ʻae ngaahi matavai ʻoe moana mo e ngaahi matavai ʻoe langi, pea naʻe taʻofi ʻae ʻuha mei he langi;
The fountains also of the deep, and the windows of heaven were stopped; and the rain from heaven was restrained.
3 Pea naʻe fakaʻaʻau ke matuku ʻae ngaahi vai mei māmani: pea ʻi he fakaʻosi ʻae ʻaho ʻe teau ma nimangofulu kuo siʻi ʻae ngaahi vai.
And the waters returned from off the earth, gradually returning; and the waters were abated after the end of the hundred and fifty days.
4 Pea naʻe toka ʻae vaka ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga ʻo ʻAlalate, ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe hongofulu ma fitu ʻoe māhina.
And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
5 Pea naʻe fakasiʻisiʻi maʻuaipē ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo aʻu ki hono hongofulu ʻoe [māhina]: naʻe ha hake ʻae tumutumu ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga ʻi hono hongofulu māhina, ʻi he ʻuluaki [ʻaho ]ʻoe māhina.
And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen;
6 Pea ʻi he hili ange ʻae ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu, naʻe toʻo ʻe Noa ʻae matapā ʻoe vaka ʻaia naʻa ne ngaohi:
And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made;
7 Pea naʻa ne tukuange ha leveni, ʻaia naʻe feʻaluʻaki, kaeʻoua ke matuʻu ʻae ngaahi vai mei he funga ʻo māmani.
And he sent forth a raven which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
8 Naʻa ne tukuange foki ha lupe meiate ia, ke vakai pe kuo matuku ʻae ngaahi vai mei he funga ʻoe kelekele;
He then sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground.
9 Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he lupe ha tuʻuʻanga ki hono ʻaofi vaʻe, pea naʻe foki ia kiate ia ki he vaka, he naʻe ʻi he funga ʻo māmani kotoa ʻae ngaahi vai: pea naʻe mafao atu ʻe ia hono nima, ʻo toʻo pea ʻomi ia kiate ia ki he vaka.
But the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him unto the ark; for there was water on the face of the whole earth; then he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her into the ark.
10 Pea naʻe toe tatali ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu; pea ne toe tukuange ʻae lupe mei he vaka;
And he stayed yet another seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.
11 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae lupe kiate ia ʻi he efiafi; pea vakai, kuo ʻi hono ngutu ʻae lauʻi ʻolive kuo ne pakiʻi: pea toki ʻilo ai ʻe Noa kuo matuku ʻae ngaahi vai mei he māmani.
And the dove came in to him at the time of the evening; and, lo, an olive-leaf plucked off was in her mouth; so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
12 Pea toe tatali ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu; pea tuku atu ai ʻae lupe; pea naʻe ʻikai toe foki mai ia kiate ia.
And he stayed yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; but she returned not again unto him any more.
13 Pea ʻi he hoko ki hono onongeau ma taha taʻu, ʻi he ʻuluaki [māhina], ʻi he ʻuluaki [ʻaho ]ʻoe māhina, naʻe matuʻu ai ʻae ngaahi vai mei he fonua; pea naʻe hiki ʻe Noa ʻae ʻufiʻufi ʻoe vaka, ʻo sio, pea vakai, kuo mōmoa ʻae funga ʻoe kelekele.
And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, that the waters were dried up from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.
14 Pea naʻe mōmoa ʻae fonua ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina, ʻi hono uofulu ma fitu ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina.
And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth perfectly dried up.
15 Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua kia Noa, ʻo pehē,
And God spoke unto Noah, saying,
16 “ʻAlu atu mei he vaka, ʻa koe, mo ho uaifi, mo ho ngaahi foha, mo e ngaahi uaifi ʻo ho ngaahi foha mo koe.
Go forth from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
17 Omi mo koe ʻae ngaahi meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate koe, ʻi he kakano kotoa pē, mo e fanga manupuna, mo e fanga manu, pea mo e meʻa totolo kotoa pē ʻoku ngaolo ʻi he fonua; koeʻuhi kenau fanafanau ʻo lahi ʻi he fonua pea tupu, pea fakatokolahi ʻi māmani.”
Every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, bring forth with thee; that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
18 Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Noa, mo hono ngaahi foha, mo hono uaifi, mo e ngaahi uaifi ʻo hono ngaahi foha mo ia:
And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him.
19 Naʻe ʻalu atu mei he vaka, ʻi honau faʻahinga, ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē, mo e ngaahi meʻa totolo kotoa pē, mo e fanga manupuna kotoa pē, mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku totolo ʻi he fonua.
Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their families, went forth out of the ark.
20 Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Noa ha ʻesifeilaulau kia Sihova; pea naʻa ne toʻo mei he fanga manu maʻa kotoa pē, pea mei he fanga manupuna naʻe maʻa, pea ʻohake ai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu ʻi he ʻesifeilaulau.
And Noah built an altar unto the Lord, and he took of every clean cattle, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt-offerings on the altar.
21 Pea naʻe nanamu ʻa Sihova ki hono ngangatu lelei, pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova ʻi hono finangalo, “ʻE ʻikai te u toe fakamalaʻiaʻi ʻae fonua koeʻuhi ko e tangata; he ʻoku kovi ʻae ngaōʻi ʻoe loto ʻoe tangata mei heʻene kei siʻi; pea ʻe ʻikai te u toe taaʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ʻo hangē ko ia kuo u fai.
And the Lord smelled the sweet savour; and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for the sake of man; although the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth: neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
22 Lolotonga ʻae tuʻu ʻa māmani, ʻe ʻikai tuku ʻae tō taʻu mo e ututaʻu, mo e momoko mo e pupuha, mo e faʻahitaʻu mafana mo e faʻahitaʻu momoko, mo e ʻaho mo e pō.”
All the while the earth remaineth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.
