Genesis 7

1 Angraeng mah Noah khaeah, Nangmah hoi na imthung takoh boih palong thungah akun oh; nang loe ka hmaa ah vaihi dung ih kaminawk salakah kami katoeng ah kang hnuk.

And the Lord said to him: “Enter the ark, you and all your house. For I have seen you to be just in my sight, within this generation.

2 Long nuiah taw ih moi atii anghmat ving han ai ah, atii kamghnong kaciim moi to amno hoi ampa sarihto, acaeng kanghmong kaciim ai moi doeh amno hoi ampa hnetto,

From all the clean animals, take seven and seven, the male and the female. Yet truly, from animals that are unclean, take two and two, the male and the female.

3 atii kanghmong van ih tavaa doeh amno hoi ampa sarihto ah la boih ah.

But also from the birds of the air, take seven and seven, the male and the female, so that offspring may be saved upon the face of the whole earth.

4 Vaihi hoi ni sarihto thungah, long ah ni qui palito hoi qum qui palito thung kho kang oihsak moe, long nuiah kaom ka sak ih kahing hmuennawk to kam rosak boih han, tiah a naa.

For from that point, and after seven days, I will rain upon the earth for forty days and forty nights. And I will wipe away every substance that I have made, from the surface of the earth.”

5 Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah Noah mah sak boih.

Therefore, Noah did all things just as the Lord had commanded him.

6 Long to tui mah uem naah, Noah loe saning cumvai tarukto oh boeh.

And he was six hundred years old when the waters of the great flood inundated the earth.

7 Tui len pongah, Noah mah a capanawk, a zu hoi a capanawk ih zu boih, palong thungah akun haih.

And Noah entered into the ark, and his sons, his wife, and the wives of his sons with him, because of the waters of the great flood.

8 Kaciim hoi kaciim ai moinawk, tavaanawk hoi long ah kavak moinawk boih,

And from the animals both clean and unclean, and from the birds, and from everything that moves upon the earth,

9 Sithaw mah Noah khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, amno hoi ampa hnetto kacung ah, Noah hoi nawnto palong thungah akun o.

two by two they were brought into the ark to Noah, male and female, just as the Lord had instructed Noah.

10 Ni sarihto pacoengah loe long nuiah tui uemhaih to phak.

And when seven days had passed, the waters of the great flood inundated the earth.

11 Noah hinghaih saning cumvai tarukto koephaih saning, khrah hnetto haih, ni hatlai sarihto naah, kalen hoi kathuk long thung hoiah tui to puek moe, van thokbuemnawk to am-ongh.

In the six hundredth year of the life of Noah, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great abyss were released, and the floodgates of heaven were opened.

12 Ni qui palito hoi qum qui palito long nuiah kho angzoh.

And rain came upon the earth for forty days and forty nights.

13 To na niah Noah loe a capa Shem, Ham hoi Japheth, a zu hoi a capa thumto ih zunawk,

On the very same day, Noah and his sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and his wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered the ark.

14 Moi kasannawk, pacah ih moinawk boih, long ah kavak moi, pakhraeh tawn tavaanawk loe Noah hoi nawnto palong thungah akun o.

They and every animal according to its kind, and all the cattle in their kind, and everything that moves upon the earth in their kind, and every flying thing according to its kind, all the birds and all that can fly,

15 Hinghaih tawn, moinawk boih loe hnetto kacung ah, Noah khaeah caeh o moe, palong thungah akun o.

entered the ark to Noah, two by two out of all that is flesh, in which there was the breath of life.

16 Sithaw mah Noah khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, moinawk boih amno hoi ampa kacung ah, Noah khaeah palong thungah akun o; to pacoengah Angraeng mah anih to thok khah thuih khoep.

And those that entered went in male and female, from all that is flesh, just as God had instructed him. And then the Lord closed him in from the outside.

17 Long loe ni qui palito thung tui mah uem; kalen aep aep tui mah palong to long ranui ah atoengh tahang.

And the great flood occurred for forty days upon the earth. And the waters were increased, and they lifted the ark high above the land.

18 Tui loe len moe, long ranui bangah sang tahang aep aep; tui mah palong to long ranui ah atoengh tahang.

For they overflowed greatly, and they filled everything on the surface of the earth. And then the ark was carried across the waters.

19 Long nuiah tui len parai pongah, van tlim ah kaom, maesangnawk to tui mah uem boih.

And the waters prevailed beyond measure across the earth. And all the lofty mountains under the whole heaven were covered.

20 Mae ranuih dong hatlai panga karoek to tui mah uengh tahang.

The water was fifteen cubits higher than the mountains which it covered.

21 Long ah kaom angtawt thaih moinawk, tavaanawk, pacah ih moinawk, taw ih moisannawk, long ah kavak moinawk hoi kaminawk to duek o boih.

And all flesh was consumed which moved upon the earth: flying things, animals, wild beasts, and all moving things that crawl upon the ground. And all men,

22 Saoeng ah kaom, hnah hoi anghahaih takhi tawn moinawk to duek o boih.

and everything in which there is the breath of life on earth, died.

23 Long nuiah kaom kahing hmuennawk, kami, pacah ih moi, long ah kavak moinawk, van ih tavaanawk to tamit boih; Noah angmah, anih hoi nawnto kaom kaminawk khue ni anghmat o.

And he wiped away all substance that was upon the earth, from man to animal, the crawling things just as much as the flying things of the air. And they were wiped away from the earth. But only Noah remained, and those who were with him in the ark.

24 Tui mah long to ni cumvai, qui pangato thung uem.

And the waters possessed the earth for one hundred and fifty days.
