Genesis 8
1 God remembered Noah, all the animals, and all the livestock that were with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth. The waters subsided.
E Bondye te sonje Noé avèk tout bèt ki te avèk li nan lach la. Konsa, Bondye te fè yon van pase sou tè a, e dlo yo te vin bese.
2 The deep’s fountains and the sky’s windows were also stopped, and the rain from the sky was restrained.
Sous nan fon yo te vin fèmen. Pòtay lapli nan syèl la te fèmen, e lapli ki te sòti nan syèl la te sispann.
3 The waters continually receded from the earth. After the end of one hundred fifty days the waters receded.
Dlo a te bese ofiramezi sou tè a. E apre san-senkant jou, dlo a te vin mwens.
4 The ship rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on Ararat’s mountains.
Nan setyèm mwa, nan dis-setyèm jou nan mwa a, lach la te vin poze sou mòn Ararat la.
5 The waters receded continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were visible.
Dlo a te bese toujou jis nan dizyèm mwa a. Nan dizyèm mwa, nan premye jou mwa a, tèt mòn yo te vin vizib.
6 At the end of forty days, Noah opened the window of the ship which he had made,
Alò, li te vin rive ke lè karant jou yo fin pase, Noé te ouvri fenèt lach la, ke li te fè a.
7 and he sent out a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters were dried up from the earth.
Konsa, li te voye deyò yon kònèy zwazo nwa ki te vole de yon kote a lòt jiskaske dlo a te vin seche sou tè a.
8 He himself sent out a dove to see if the waters were abated from the surface of the ground,
Epi li te voye deyò yon toutrèl sòti kote li, pou wè si dlo a te bese sou fas tè a,
9 but the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned into the ship to him, for the waters were on the surface of the whole earth. He put out his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ship.
men toutrèl la pa t jwenn plas repo pou plante pye li, e li te retounen kote li nan lach la, paske dlo a te sou fas tout tè a. Alò, li te lonje men l deyò, li te pran l, e li te fè l antre nan lach la vè li menm.
10 He waited yet another seven days; and again he sent the dove out of the ship.
Li te tann pou yon lòt sèt jou ankò, e li te revoye toutrèl la soti nan lach la.
11 The dove came back to him at evening and, behold, in her mouth was a freshly plucked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the waters were abated from the earth.
Toutrèl la te vin kote l vè aswè, e gade byen, nan bèk li te gen yon fèy bwa doliv byen fre. Konsa Noé te konnen ke dlo a te bese sou tè a.
12 He waited yet another seven days, and sent out the dove; and she did not return to him any more.
Alò, li te tann pou youn lòt sèt jou. Li te revoye toutrèl la, e li pa t retounen kote li ankò.
13 In the six hundred first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from the earth. Noah removed the covering of the ship, and looked. He saw that the surface of the ground was dry.
Alò, li te vin rive ke nan sis-san-en ane, nan premye mwa, dlo a te fin seche kite tè a. Konsa, Noé te retire kouvèti lach la. Li te gade, e gade byen, sifas tè a te vin sèch.
14 In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
Nan dezyèm mwa, nan venn-sèt jou nan mwa a, tè a te sèch.
15 God spoke to Noah, saying,
Alò, Bondye te pale avèk Noé. Li te di:
16 “Go out of the ship, you, your wife, your sons, and your sons’ wives with you.
Sòti nan lach la, ou menm avèk madanm ou, fis ou yo, avèk madanm a fis ou yo.
17 Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh, including birds, livestock, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply on the earth.”
Mete deyò avèk ou tout chè vivan ki avèk ou, zwazo, animal, ak tout bèt sila yo ki kouri atè, pou yo kapab kouple anpil sou latè, pou vin fekon, e miltipliye anpil sou tè a.
18 Noah went out, with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives with him.
Alò, Noé te sòti, ak fis li yo avèk madanm li, e madanm a fis li yo.
19 Every animal, every creeping thing, and every bird, whatever moves on the earth, after their families, went out of the ship.
Chak bèt, chak reptil ki kouri atè, e chak zwazo, tout bagay ki fè mouvman sou latè yo, te sòti nan lach la selon espès pa yo.
20 Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal, and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
Konsa, Noé te bati yon lotèl pou SENYÈ a. Li te pran chak bèt ki pwòp, ak chak zwazo ki pwòp, e li te ofri sakrifis ki te brile sou lotèl la.
21 The LORD smelled the pleasant aroma. The LORD said in his heart, “I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake because the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth. I will never again strike every living thing, as I have done.
SENYÈ a te pran sant dous la. Konsa, SENYÈ a te di a Li menm: “Mwen p ap janm modi tè a ankò akoz lòm, paske lentansyon kè li se lemal depi li te jèn. Ni mwen p ap janm detwi ankò chak bagay vivan jan Mwen te fè a.
22 While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night will not cease.”
“Pandan tè a la a, lè semans avèk rekòlt, fredi avèk chalè, sezon chalè ak livè, lajounen avèk lannwit p ap janm sispann.”
