< Genesis 7 >

1 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí fún Noa pé, “Wọ inú ọkọ̀ lọ ìwọ àti gbogbo ìdílé rẹ, nítorí ìwọ nìkan ni mo rí bí olódodo nínú ìran yìí.
And Yahweh said to Noah, Enter thou and all thy house, into the ark, —for, thee, have I seen righteous before me, in this generation.
2 Mú méje méje nínú àwọn ẹran tí ó mọ́, akọ àti abo, mú méjì méjì takọ tabo nínú àwọn ẹran aláìmọ́.
Of all the clean beasts, shalt thou take to thee by sevens, a male and his female, —and, of the beasts that are not clean, shall be two a male and his female.
3 Sì mú méje méje pẹ̀lú nínú onírúurú ẹyẹ, takọ tabo ni kí o mú wọn, wọlé sínú ọkọ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ, kí á ba à lè pa wọ́n mọ́ láààyè ní gbogbo ayé.
Also of the bird of the heavens, by sevens, male and female, —to keep alive a seed on the face of all the earth.
4 Nítorí ní ọjọ́ méje sí ìhín, èmi yóò rọ òjò sórí ilẹ̀ fún ogójì ọ̀sán àti ogójì òru, èmi yóò sì pa gbogbo ohun alààyè tí mo ti dá run kúrò lórí ilẹ̀.”
For in seven days more, I, am sending rain on the earth, forty days and forty nights, —so will I wipe out all the living things which I have made, from off the face of the ground.
5 Noa sì ṣe ohun gbogbo tí Olúwa pàṣẹ fún un.
And Noah did, —according to all that Yahweh commanded him.
6 Noa jẹ́ ọmọ ẹgbẹ̀ta ọdún nígbà tí ìkún omi dé sórí ilẹ̀.
Now, Noah, was six hundred years old, —when, the flood, came, even waters on the earth.
7 Noa àti ìyàwó rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ àti àwọn aya ọmọ rẹ̀ sì wọ inú ọkọ láti sá àsálà fún ìkún omi.
So Noah entered, and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives with him into the ark, —from before the waters of the flood,
8 Méjì méjì ni àwọn ẹran tí ó mọ́ àti aláìmọ́, ti ẹyẹ àti ti gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀dá afàyàfà,
Of the beasts that were clean, and of the beasts that were not clean, —and of the birds, and everything that creepeth on the ground,
9 akọ àti abo ni wọ́n wọlé pẹ̀lú Noa sínú ọkọ̀ bí Ọlọ́run ti pàṣẹ fún Noa.
two and two, went they in unto Noah, into the ark male and female, —as God commanded Noah.
10 Lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ keje, ìkún omi sì dé sí ayé.
And it came to pass, in the seven days, —that the waters of the flood, came on the earth.
11 Ní ọjọ́ kẹtàdínlógún oṣù kejì, tí Noa pé ọmọ ẹgbẹ̀ta ọdún, ni gbogbo ìsun ibú ya, fèrèsé ìṣàn omi ọ̀run sì ṣí sílẹ̀.
In the six hundredth year, the year of the life of Noah. in the second month on the seventeenth day of the month on this day, were burst open all the fountains of the great roaring deep, and the windows of the heavens, were set open.
12 Òjò àrọ̀ìrọ̀dá sì rọ̀ fún ogójì ọ̀sán àti ogójì òru.
(And it came to pass that the heavy rain was on the earth, —forty days and forty nights.)
13 Ní ọjọ́ tí ìkún omi yóò bẹ̀rẹ̀ gan an ni Noa àti Ṣemu, Hamu àti Jafeti pẹ̀lú aya Noa àti aya àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ wọ inú ọkọ̀.
On this selfsame day, entered Noah, and Shem and Ham and Japheth. Noah’s sons, —and Noah’s wife, and his sons’ three wives with them into the ark:
14 Wọ́n mú ẹranko igbó àti ohun ọ̀sìn ní onírúurú wọn, àwọn ẹ̀dá afàyàfà àti ẹyẹ àti àwọn ohun abìyẹ́ ni onírúurú wọn.
they, and all the wild-beasts after their kind and all the tame-beasts after their kind, and all the creeping things that creep on the earth after their kind, —and all the birds after their kind, every bird of every wing.
15 Méjì méjì ni gbogbo ẹ̀dá tí ó ní èémí ìyè nínú wọlé pẹ̀lú Noa sínú ọkọ̀.
So they entered in unto Noah, into the ark, —two and two of all flesh, wherein was the spirit of life.
16 Gbogbo wọ́n wọlé ní takọ tabo bí Ọlọ́run ti pàṣẹ fún Noa, Olúwa sì tì wọn mọ́ inú ọkọ̀.
And, they that entered, male and female of all flesh, entered, as God commanded him, —and Yahweh shut him in round about.
17 Òjò náà sì rọ̀ ní àrọ̀ìrọ̀dá fún ogójì ọ̀sán àti ogójì òru, ọkọ̀ náà sì ń léfòó lórí omi, kúrò lórí ilẹ̀ bí omi náà ti ń pọ̀ sí i.
And it came to pass, that the flood was forty days on the earth, —and the waters increased and bare up the ark, and it was lifted high above the earth,
18 Bí omi náà ti ń pọ̀ sí i, bẹ́ẹ̀ náà ni ọkọ̀ náà sì ń léfòó lójú omi.
And the waters prevailed and increased greatly, on the earth, —and the ark went its way on the face of the waters.
19 Omi náà pọ̀ tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ó bo gbogbo àwọn òkè gíga tí ó wà lábẹ́ ọ̀run.
Yea the waters, prevailed very greatly, on the earth, —so that all the high mountains became covered, that were under all the heavens:
20 Omi náà kún bo àwọn òkè, bí ìwọ̀n ìgbọ̀nwọ́ mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún.
fifteen cubits upwards, prevailed the waters, so that the mountains became covered.
21 Gbogbo ohun alààyè tí ó wà lórí ilẹ̀ parun: ẹyẹ, ohun ọ̀sìn, ẹranko igbó, àwọn ẹ̀dá afàyàfà àti ènìyàn.
And all flesh ceased to breathe that moved on the earth, of birds and of tame-beasts and of wild-beasts, and of all the swarming things that swarm on the earth, —and all mankind.
22 Gbogbo ohun tí ó wà lórí ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀ tó ní èémí ìyè ní ihò imú wọn ni ó kú.
All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life of all that were on the dry ground died.
23 Gbogbo ohun alààyè tí ó wà lórí ilẹ̀ ayé ni a parẹ́: ènìyàn àti ẹranko, àwọn ohun tí ń rìn nílẹ̀, àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run pátápátá ló ṣègbé. Noa àti àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nínú ọkọ̀ ni ó ṣẹ́kù.
Thus was wiped out all that existed on the face of the ground, from man unto beast unto creeping thing, and unto the bird of the heavens, thus were they wiped out from the earth, —so that there was left—only Noah and they that were with him in the ark.
24 Omi náà sì bo ilẹ̀ fún àádọ́jọ ọjọ́.
Thus prevailed the waters on the earth, —a hundred and fifty days.
