1 Мојсијева 6
1 А кад се људи почеше множити на земљи, и кћери им се народише.
And it happened, when humankind began to multiply on the face of the land, and daughters were born to them,
2 Видећи синови Божји кћери човечије како су лепе узимаше их за жене које хтеше.
that God's sons saw that the daughters of humankind were beautiful, and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose.
3 А Господ рече: Неће се дух мој до века прети с људима, јер су тело; нека им још сто двадесет година.
And God said, "My Spirit will not remain in humankind forever, since he is indeed flesh; yet his days will be one hundred twenty years."
4 А беше тада дивова на земљи; а и после, кад се синови Божји састајаху са кћерима човечијим, па им оне рађаху синове; то беху силни људи, од старине на гласу.
The Nephilim were on the earth in those days (and also after that), when the sons of God had sexual relations with the daughters of humankind and had children by them. They were the mighty men who were from ancient times, famous men.
5 И Господ видећи да је неваљалство људско велико на земљи, и да су све мисли срца њиховог свагда само зле,
And God saw that the wickedness of humankind was great on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
6 Покаја се Господ што је створио човека на земљи, и би му жао у срцу.
God was sorry that he had made humankind on the earth, and he was grieved in his heart.
7 И рече Господ: Хоћу да истребим са земље људе, које сам створио, од човека до стоке и до ситне животиње и до птица небеских; јер се кајем што сам их створио.
God said, "I will destroy humankind whom I have created from the face of the earth; humankind, along with animals, crawling creatures, and flying creatures of the sky; for I am sorry that I have made them."
8 Али Ноје нађе милост пред Господом.
But Noah found favor in the sight of God.
9 Ово су догађаји Нојеви: Ноје беше човек праведан и безазлен свог века; по вољи Божјој свагда живљаше Ноје.
These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time. Noah walked with God.
10 И роди Ноје три сина: Сима, Хама и Јафета.
Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 А земља се поквари пред Богом, и напуни се земља безакоња.
The earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12 И погледа Бог на земљу, а она беше покварена; јер свако тело поквари пут свој на земљи.
God saw the earth, and look, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.
13 И рече Бог Ноју: Крај сваком телу дође преда ме, јер напунише земљу безакоња; и ево хоћу да их затрем са земљом.
And God said to Noah, "The end of all flesh has come before me, for the earth is filled with violence through them. And look, I will destroy them with the earth.
14 Начини себи ковчег од дрвета гофера, и начини прегратке у ковчегу; и затопи га смолом изнутра и споља.
Make a box-shaped ship of gopher wood. You are to make rooms in the ship, and cover it inside and outside with pitch.
15 И начини га овако; у дужину нека буде триста лаката, у ширину педесет лаката, и у висину тридесет лаката;
And this is how you are to make it. The length of the ship is to be five hundred seventeen feet, its breadth eighty-six feet, and its height fifty-two feet.
16 Пусти доста светлости у ковчег; и кров му сведи озго од лакта; и удари врата ковчегу са стране; и начини га на три боја: доњи, други и трећи.
And you are to make a roof in the ship, and you are to finish it twenty-one inches above. And you are to set the door of the ship in its side. You are to make it with lower, second, and third levels.
17 Јер ево пустићу потоп на земљу да истребим свако тело у коме има жива душа под небом; шта је год на земљи све ће изгинути.
And as for me, look, I am bringing a flood of waters on the earth, to destroy all flesh having the breath of life from under the sky. Everything that is on the earth will die.
18 Али ћу с тобом учинити завет свој: и ући ћеш у ковчег ти и синови твоји и жена твоја и жене синова твојих с тобом.
But I will establish my covenant with you. You are to come into the ship, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you.
19 И од свега живог, од сваког тела, узећеш у ковчег по двоје, да сачуваш у животу са собом, а мушко и женско нека буде.
Of every living thing of all flesh, you are to bring two of every sort into the ship, to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.
20 Од птица по врстама њиховим, од стоке по врстама њеним, и од свега што се миче на земљи по врстама његовим, од свега по двоје нека уђе с тобом, да их сачуваш у животу.
Of the flying creatures after their kind, of the animals after their kind, and of every crawling creature of the ground after their kind, two of every sort shall come to you, to keep them alive.
21 И узми са собом свега што се једе, и чувај код себе, да буде хране теби и њима.
And as for you, take for yourself all the kinds of food that are eaten, and gather it to yourself; and it will be food for you, and for them."
22 И Ноје учини, како му заповеди Бог, све онако учини.
Thus Noah did. According to all that God commanded him, so he did.
The World is Destroyed by Water
