Genesis 8
1 And God kept Noah in mind, and all the living things and the cattle which were with him in the ark: and God sent a wind over the earth, and the waters went down.
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 And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were shut, and the rain from heaven was stopped.
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 And the waters went slowly back from the earth, and at the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters were lower.
Dlo a te bese ofiramezi sou tè a. E apre san-senkant jou, dlo a te vin mwens.
4 And on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
Nan setyèm mwa, nan dis-setyèm jou nan mwa a, lach la te vin poze sou mòn Ararat la.
5 And still the waters went on falling, till on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen.
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 Then, after forty days, through the open window of the ark 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 Noah sent out a raven, which went this way and that till the waters were gone 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 And he sent out a dove, to see if the waters had gone from the face of the earth;
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 saw no resting-place for her foot, and came back to the ark, for the waters were still over all the earth; and he put out his hand, and took her into the ark.
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 And after waiting another seven days, he sent the dove out again;
Li te tann pou yon lòt sèt jou ankò, e li te revoye toutrèl la soti nan lach la.
11 And the dove came back at evening, and in her mouth was an olive-leaf broken off: so Noah was certain that the waters had gone down on 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 And after seven days more, he sent the dove out again, but she did not come back to him.
Alò, li te tann pou youn lòt sèt jou. Li te revoye toutrèl la, e li pa t retounen kote li ankò.
13 And in the six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters were dry on the earth: and Noah took the cover off the ark and saw that the face of the earth 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 And on the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.
Nan dezyèm mwa, nan venn-sèt jou nan mwa a, tè a te sèch.
15 And God said to Noah,
Alò, Bondye te pale avèk Noé. Li te di:
16 Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons' wives.
Sòti nan lach la, ou menm avèk madanm ou, fis ou yo, avèk madanm a fis ou yo.
17 Take out with you every living thing which is with you, birds and cattle and everything which goes on the earth, so that they may have offspring and be fertile and be increased 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 And Noah went out with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives;
Alò, Noé te sòti, ak fis li yo avèk madanm li, e madanm a fis li yo.
19 And every beast and bird and every living thing of every sort which goes on the earth, went out of the ark.
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 And Noah made an altar to the Lord, and from every clean beast and bird he made burned 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 And when the sweet smell came up to the Lord, he said in his heart, I will not again put a curse on the earth because of man, for the thoughts of man's heart are evil from his earliest days; never again will I send destruction on all living things 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 goes on, seed time and the getting in of the grain, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, will not come to an end.
“Pandan tè a la a, lè semans avèk rekòlt, fredi avèk chalè, sezon chalè ak livè, lajounen avèk lannwit p ap janm sispann.”
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
