Genesis 7

1 And Jehovah said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

Basa naa ma, LAMATUALAIN olaꞌ no Noh nae, “Au mete neu bee-bꞌee, akaꞌ ho fo rala ma ndoos. Huu naa, mo sao-ana mara, ofai rala mi leo.

2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee seven and seven, the male and his female; and of the beasts that are not clean two, the male and his female:

Mendi basa banda fo hei miaꞌ ra, ma basa banda fo hei tao neu tutunu-hohotuꞌ fee Auꞌ ra, pasan hitu-hitu ofai rala neu. Mendi basa mbuiꞌ ra, pasan beꞌe hituꞌ boe. Te banda feaꞌ ra naa, mendi pasan beꞌe esaꞌ a. No taꞌo naa, banda ma mbuiꞌ naa ra, dadꞌi fini, fo ara afiꞌ mopo.

3 of the birds also of the heavens, seven and seven, male and female, to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.

4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living thing that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the ground.

Musunedꞌa malolole e! Te helaꞌ a fai hitu ena, Au uꞌondaꞌ udꞌan nda hahae sa, losa rereloꞌ fai haa nulu ma tetembaꞌ fai haa nulu. Naa fo, mate basa mana masodꞌaꞌ sia madꞌaꞌ ata, fo Au uꞌudadadꞌiꞌ alaꞌ ra.”

5 And Noah did according unto all that Jehovah commanded him.

Boe ma, Noh tao tungga basa LAMATUALAIN parenda Na.

6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.

Noh too natun nee ma, oeꞌ a lala nema.

7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.

Ana no sao na, ana nara, ma ana feto feu nara, ofai rala reu, fo rasodꞌa mia oe mandali monaeꞌ a.

8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of birds, and of everything that creepeth upon the ground,

Noh o tungga LAMATUALAIN parenda Na, de nendi basa mbuiꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ ma banda feaꞌ ra, esaꞌ no nonoo na, mae banda fo atahori raaꞌ ra, ma banda fo atahori nda raaꞌ ra sa.

9 there went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, male and female, as God commanded Noah.

10 And it came to pass after the seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.

Basa fai hitu ma, udꞌan monaeꞌ mboꞌa nema, fo nae tatana raefafoꞌ a.

11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

Noh too natun nee, fula rua, fai sanahulu hitu ma, oe monaeꞌ a nema! Onaꞌ lalai a lelesu na nenesoiꞌ, de oeꞌ a mboꞌa rae neu. Ma basa oe mataꞌ sia rae rala ra fanggi, de oe a nasapupuraꞌ dea neu.

12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

Udꞌan o nda hahae sa hatuꞌ-rerelon, losa fai haa nulu.

13 In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

Te faiꞌ naa, Noh, no sao na, ma ana nara teluꞌ se Sem, Yafet no Ham, ma ana feto feu nara, basa se ofai rala reu.

14 they, and every beast after its kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird of every sort.

Ara rala reu ro banda mata-mataꞌ. Naeni, banda neꞌeboiꞌ, banda fui, banda mana nodꞌoꞌ, mbuiꞌ ra ma banda malidꞌa feaꞌ ra.

15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh wherein is the breath of life.

Noh ofai rala neu no basa masodꞌaꞌ ra pasan beꞌe esaꞌ, tungga Lamatualain parenda na. Basa se rala reu ma, LAMATUALAIN nggoe ofai a lelesu na.

16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him: and Jehovah shut him in.

17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lifted up above the earth.

Boe ma, udꞌan monaeꞌ a nema nakandooꞌ a losa fai haa nulu, de oe mandali monaeꞌ a boe hene naruꞌ ata neu, losa ofai a laa. Basa ma, oeꞌ a hene nakandooꞌ a, losa tatana nala lete naruꞌ ra.

18 And the waters prevailed, and increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.

19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high mountains that were under the whole heaven were covered.

20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.

Basa ma, oeꞌ a hene nda naloeꞌ sa, losa naru na meter hitu sia mbukuꞌ ra ata.

21 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both birds, and cattle, and beasts, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:

No taꞌo naa, basa mana masodꞌaꞌ sia madꞌaꞌ ata ra, mate. Atahori, banda neꞌebꞌoiꞌ, banda fui, banda mana nodꞌoꞌ, ma mbuiꞌ ra, basa se mate. Akaꞌ a Noh no basa mana sia ofai rala ra, rasodꞌa.

22 all in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, of all that was on the dry land, died.

23 And every living thing was destroyed that was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and creeping things, and birds of the heavens; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only was left, and they that were with him in the ark.

24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.

Oeꞌ a nda reꞌe sa, losa fula lima.
