Бытие 6
1 И бысть егда начаша человецы мнози бывати на земли, и дщери родишася им:
When men began to multiply on the surface of the ground, and daughters were born to them,
2 видевше же сынове Божии дщери человечи, яко добры суть, пояша себе жены от всех, яже избраша.
God’s sons saw that men’s daughters were beautiful, and they took any that they wanted for themselves as wives.
3 И рече Господь Бог: не имать Дух Мой пребывати в человецех сих во век, зане суть плоть: будут же дние их лет сто двадесять.
The LORD said, “My Spirit will not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh; so his days will be one hundred and twenty years.”
4 Исполини же бяху на земли во дни оны: и потом, егда вхождаху сынове Божии к дщерем человеческим, и раждаху себе: тии бяху исполини, иже от века, человецы именитии.
The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when God’s sons came in to men’s daughters and had children with them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.
5 Видев же Господь Бог, яко умножишася злобы человеков на земли: и всяк помышляет в сердцы своем прилежно на злая во вся дни:
The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of man’s heart was continually only evil.
6 и помысли Бог, яко сотвори человека на земли, и размысли.
The LORD was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart.
7 И рече Бог: потреблю человека, егоже сотворих, от лица земли, от человека даже до скота, и от гад даже до птиц небесных: зане размыслих, яко сотворих я.
The LORD said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the surface of the ground—man, along with animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky—for I am sorry that I have made them.”
8 Ное же обрете благодать пред Господем Богом.
But Noah found favour in the LORD’s eyes.
9 Сия же бытия Ноева: Ное человек праведен совершен сый в роде своем, Богу угоди Ное.
This is the history of the generations of Noah: Noah was a righteous man, blameless amongst the people of his time. Noah walked with God.
10 Роди же Ное три сыны, Сима, Хама, Иафефа.
Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Растлеся же земля пред Богом, и наполнися земля неправды.
The earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12 И виде Господь Бог землю, и бе растленна: яко растли всяка плоть путь свой на земли.
God saw the earth, and saw that it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.
13 И рече Господь Бог Ною: время всякаго человека прииде пред Мя, яко исполнися земля неправды от них: и се, Аз погублю их и землю.
God said to Noah, “I will bring an end to all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Behold, I will destroy them and the earth.
14 Сотвори убо себе ковчег от древ (негниющих) четвероуголных: гнезда сотвориши в ковчезе, и посмолиши его внутрьуду и внеуду смолою.
Make a ship of gopher wood. You shall make rooms in the ship, and shall seal it inside and outside with pitch.
15 И тако сотвориши ковчег: трех сот лактей долгота ковчега, и пятидесяти лактей широта, и тридесяти лактей высота его.
This is how you shall make it. The length of the ship shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.
16 Собирая сводом сотвориши ковчег, и в лакоть свершиши его свыше: дверь же ковчега сотвориши от страны: обиталища двокровна и трекровна сотвориши в нем.
You shall make a roof in the ship, and you shall finish it to a cubit upward. You shall set the door of the ship in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third levels.
17 Аз же, се, наведу потоп, воду на землю, погубити всяку плоть, в нейже есть дух жизни под небесем: и елика суть на земли, скончаются.
I, even I, will bring the flood of waters on this earth, to destroy all flesh having the breath of life from under the sky. Everything that is in the earth will die.
18 И поставлю завет Мой с тобою: внидеши же в ковчег ты и сынове твои, и жена твоя и жены сынов твоих с тобою.
But I will establish my covenant with you. You shall come into the ship, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives with you.
19 И от всех скотов и от всех гад, и от всех зверей, и от всякия плоти, два два от всех введеши в ковчег, да питаеши с собою: мужеский пол и женский будут.
Of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ship, to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.
20 От всех птиц пернатых по роду, и от всех скотов по роду, и от всех гадов ползающих по земли по роду их, два два от всех внидут к тебе, питатися с тобою, мужеский пол и женский.
Of the birds after their kind, of the livestock after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort will come to you, to keep them alive.
21 Ты же возми себе от всех брашен, яже имате ясти, и собереши к себе, и будут тебе и оным брашно.
Take with you some of all food that is eaten, and gather it to yourself; and it will be for food for you, and for them.”
22 И сотвори Ное вся елика заповеда ему Господь Бог, тако сотвори.
Thus Noah did. He did all that God commanded him.
The World is Destroyed by Water
