Genesis 7

1 The LORD said to Noah, “Come with all of your household into the ship, for I have seen your righteousness before me in this generation.

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.

2 You shall take seven pairs of every clean animal with you, the male and his female. Of the animals that are not clean, take two, the male and his female.

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,

3 Also of the birds of the sky, seven and seven, male and female, to keep seed alive on the surface of all the earth.

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

4 In seven days, I will cause it to rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights. I will destroy every living thing that I have made from the surface of the ground.”

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.

5 Noah did everything that the LORD commanded him.

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

6 Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came on the earth.

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

7 Noah went into the ship with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, because of the floodwaters.

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

8 Clean animals, unclean animals, birds, and everything that creeps on the ground

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

9 went by pairs to Noah into the ship, male and female, as God commanded Noah.

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

10 After the seven days, the floodwaters came on the earth.

Ni sarihto pacoengah loe long nuiah tui uemhaih to phak.

11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the sky’s windows opened.

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.

12 It rained on the earth forty days and forty nights.

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

13 In the same day Noah, and Shem, Ham, and Japheth—the sons of Noah—and Noah’s wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered into the ship—

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

14 they, and every animal after its kind, all the livestock after their kind, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird of every sort.

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

15 Pairs from all flesh with the breath of life in them went into the ship to Noah.

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

16 Those who went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him; then the LORD shut him in.

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.

17 The flood was forty days on the earth. The waters increased, and lifted up the ship, and it was lifted up above the earth.

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

18 The waters rose, and increased greatly on the earth; and the ship floated on the surface of the waters.

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

19 The waters rose very high on the earth. All the high mountains that were under the whole sky were covered.

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

20 The waters rose fifteen cubits higher, and the mountains were covered.

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

21 All flesh died that moved on the earth, including birds, livestock, animals, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man.

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

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

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

23 Every living thing was destroyed that was on the surface of the ground, including man, livestock, creeping things, and birds of the sky. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ship.

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.

24 The waters flooded the earth one hundred and fifty days.

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