Genesis 7
1 Then Yahweh said to Noah, “I have seen that out of everyone who is now living, you alone always act righteously. So you and all your family go into the boat.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Noah taengah, tahae kah thawnpuei khuiah nang he kai hmai ah hlang dueng la kan hmuh coeng dongah namah neh na imkhui boeih loh lawng khui la kun laeh.
2 Take with you seven pairs of every kind of animal that I have said I will accept for sacrifices. Take seven males and seven females. Also take a male and a female from every kind of animal that I have said that I will not accept for sacrifices.
Aka caih rhamsa boeih lamkah a tal neh a la parhih, parhih neh aka caih mueh rhamsa khuikah te tongpa neh a yal panit ah,
3 Also take seven pairs of every kind of bird from all over the earth to keep them alive.
Vaan kah vaa khaw diklai hman boeih ah a tii la hlun ham a hluei neh a la panit, panit ah namah taengla lo.
4 Do this because seven days from now I will cause rain to fall on the earth. It will rain constantly for 40 days and nights. By doing that, I will destroy everything that I have made that is on the earth.”
Tahae lamkah hnin rhih phoeiah tah diklai ah khothaih hnin likip neh khoyin hnin likip te kho ka tlan sak vetih diklai hman kah ka saii mulhing boeih te ka khoe ni,” a ti nah.
5 Noah did everything that Yahweh told him to do.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh anih a uen vanbangla a cungkuem te Noah loh a saii.
6 Noah was 600 years old when the flood covered the earth.
Diklai ah tuilii tui halo vaengah Noah tah kum ya rhuk lo.
7 Before it started to rain, Noah and his wife and his sons went into the boat to escape from the flood water.
Tuilii tui kongah Noah loh a ca rhoek khaw, a yuu khaw, a langa rhoek khaw, amah taengah aka om rhoek khaw, lawng khuila a khuen.
8 Pairs of animals, those that God said that he would accept for sacrifices and those that he would not accept for sacrifices, and pairs of birds and pairs of all the kinds of creatures that move close to the ground,
Aka caih rhamsa lamkah khaw, aka caih pawh rhamsa lamkah khaw, vaa khaw, diklai ah aka yuel boeih khaw,
9 males and females, came to Noah and then went into the boat, just as God told Noah that they would do.
Pathen loh Noah a uen vanbangla a hluei neh a la panit panit loh Noah taengkah lawng te a paan uh.
10 Seven days later, it started to rain and a flood began to cover the earth.
Hnin rhih a om phoeiah tuilii tui te khaw diklai ah halo.
11 When Noah was 600 years old, (on the 17th day of the second month [of that year/late in October]), all the water that is under the surface of the earth burst forth, and it began to rain so hard that it was as though a dam [MET] in the sky burst open.
Noah kah a hingnah te kum ya rhuk kum, a hla bae, hla kah hnin hlai rhih khohnin ah tuisih laedil puei boeih te phuet tih vaan rhoek kah bangbuet khaw ong uh.
12 Rain fell on the earth constantly for 40 days and nights.
Te phoeiah khonal te diklai ah khothaih hnin likip neh khoyin hnin likip ah tlan.
13 On the day that it started to rain, Noah went into the boat with his wife, and his three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth and their wives.
Amah tekah khohnin van vaengah Noah neh Noah kah a ca rhoek Shem, Ham, Japheth neh Noah yuu neh a langa pathum tah amah neh lawng khuila kun uh.
14 They had already put in the boat some of every kind of wild animal and every kind of livestock and every kind of bird and every other creature that has wings.
Amih neh mulhing boeih khaw amah hui la, rhamsa boeih khaw amah hui la, diklai ah aka yuel rhulcai boeih khaw amah hui la, vaa boeih khaw amah hui la, vathawt boeih neh phae aka khueh boeih khaw,
15 Pairs of all animals came to Noah and entered the boat.
pumsa ah hingnah hil aka om boeih khuikah loh a bok bok la Noah taengkah lawng khuila kun uh.
16 There was a male and a female of each animal that came to Noah, just as God had said they would do. After they were all in the boat, God shut the door.
Te dongah Pathen kah a uen vanbangla pumsa boeih khuikah a hluei neh a la loh ham paan uh tih a kun uh phoeiah BOEIPA loh lawng te a khaih.
17 It rained for 40 days and nights, and the flood increased. It flooded until the water lifted the boat above the ground.
Tuilii te khaw diklai ah khohnin likip lo tih tui khaw yet. Te dongah lawng te a phoh hang tih diklai dong lamloh a pom.
18 As he water rose higher and higher, the boat floated on the surface of the water.
Tui khaw len khungdaeng tih diklai ah muep a yet dongah lawng te tui hman soah cet.
19 The water rose all over the earth until it covered all the mountains.
Te phoeiah tui te diklai ah bahoeng len tih vaan hmui boeih kah tlang sang rhoek boeih te a khuk.
20 Even the highest mountains were covered by more than (20 feet/6 meters) of water.
Tui te a so ben la dong hlai nga a sang dongah tlang rhoek te boeih a khuk.
21 As a result, every living creature on the surface of the earth died. That included birds and livestock and wild animals and other creatures that scurry across the ground, and all the people.
Te dongah diklai ah aka yuel saa boeih neh vaa boeih, rhamsa khaw, mulhing khaw, diklai dongkah aka luem rhulcai boeih khaw, hlang khaw boeih pal.
22 On the land, (everything that breathed/every living thing) died.
A hnarhong khuiah hingnah mueihla hiil aka khueh boeih te khaw, lanhak ah aka om boeih te khaw duek uh.
23 God destroyed every living creature: People and animals and creatures that scurry across the ground and birds. Only Noah and those who were in the boat with him remained alive.
Te vaengah diklai hman kah mulhing boeih, hlang lamloh rhamsa due, rhulcai neh vaan kah vaa due, a khoe dongah diklai ah hmata uh. Tedae Noah neh lawng khuiah amah neh aka om rhoek bueng te sueng.
24 The flood remained like that on the earth for 150 days.
Tui te khaw diklai ah khohnin ya neh sawmnga khuiah len.
The Great Flood
