Genesis 7

1 Then the LORD said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.

1 وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِنُوحٍ: «ٱدْخُلْ أَنْتَ وَجَمِيعُ بَيْتِكَ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ، لِأَنِّي إِيَّاكَ رَأَيْتُ بَارًّا لَدَيَّ فِي هَذَا ٱلْجِيلِ.

2 You are to take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate; a pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate;

2 مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلْبَهَائِمِ ٱلطَّاهِرَةِ تَأْخُذُ مَعَكَ سَبْعَةً سَبْعَةً ذَكَرًا وَأُنْثَى. وَمِنَ ٱلْبَهَائِمِ ٱلَّتِي لَيْسَتْ بِطَاهِرَةٍ ٱثْنَيْنِ: ذَكَرًا وَأُنْثَى.

3 and seven pairs of every kind of bird of the air, male and female, to preserve their offspring on the face of all the earth.

3 وَمِنْ طُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ أَيْضًا سَبْعَةً سَبْعَةً: ذَكَرًا وَأُنْثَى. لِٱسْتِبْقَاءِ نَسْلٍ عَلَى وَجْهِ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

4 For seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living thing I have made.”

4 لِأَنِّي بَعْدَ سَبْعَةِ أَيَّامٍ أَيْضًا أُمْطِرُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا وَأَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً. وَأَمْحُو عَنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلَّ قَائِمٍ عَمِلْتُهُ».

5 And Noah did all that the LORD had commanded him.

5 فَفَعَلَ نُوحٌ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَهُ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ.

6 Now Noah was 600 years old when the floodwaters came upon the earth.

6 وَلَمَّا كَانَ نُوحٌ ٱبْنَ سِتِّ مِئَةِ سَنَةٍ صَارَ طُوفَانُ ٱلْمَاءِ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ،

7 And Noah and his wife, with his sons and their wives, entered the ark to escape the waters of the flood.

7 فَدَخَلَ نُوحٌ وَبَنُوهُ وَٱمْرَأَتُهُ وَنِسَاءُ بَنِيهِ مَعَهُ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ مِنْ وَجْهِ مِيَاهِ ٱلطُّوفَانِ.

8 The clean and unclean animals, the birds, and everything that crawls along the ground

8 وَمِنَ ٱلْبَهَائِمِ ٱلطَّاهِرَةِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمِ ٱلَّتِي لَيْسَتْ بِطَاهِرَةٍ، وَمِنَ ٱلطُّيُورِ وَكُلِّ مَا يَدِبُّ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ:

9 came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.

9 دَخَلَ ٱثْنَانِ ٱثْنَانِ إِلَى نُوحٍ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ، ذَكَرًا وَأُنْثَى، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱللهُ نُوحًا.

10 And after seven days the floodwaters came upon the earth.

10 وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ ٱلسَّبْعَةِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ أَنَّ مِيَاهَ ٱلطُّوفَانِ صَارَتْ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ.

11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month, all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened.

11 فِي سَنَةِ سِتِّ مِئَةٍ مِنْ حَيَاةِ نُوحٍ، فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي، فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱليَوْمِ، ٱنْفَجَرَتْ كُلُّ يَنَابِيعِ ٱلْغَمْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ، وَٱنْفَتَحَتْ طَاقَاتُ ٱلسَّمَاءِ.

12 And the rain fell upon the earth for forty days and forty nights.

12 وَكَانَ ٱلْمَطَرُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا وَأَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً.

13 On that very day Noah entered the ark, along with his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and his wife, and the three wives of his sons—

13 فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ عَيْنِهِ دَخَلَ نُوحٌ، وَسَامٌ وَحَامٌ وَيَافَثُ بَنُو نُوحٍ، وَٱمْرَأَةُ نُوحٍ، وَثَلَاثُ نِسَاءِ بَنِيهِ مَعَهُمْ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ.

14 they and every kind of wild animal, livestock, crawling creature, bird, and winged creature.

14 هُمْ وَكُلُّ ٱلْوُحُوشِ كَأَجْنَاسِهَا، وَكُلُّ ٱلْبَهَائِمِ كَأَجْنَاسِهَا، وَكُلُّ ٱلدَّبَّاباتِ ٱلَّتِي تَدِبُّ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَأَجْنَاسِهَا، وَكُلُّ ٱلطُّيُورِ كَأَجْنَاسِهَا: كُلُّ عُصْفُورٍ، كُلُّ ذِي جَنَاحٍ.

15 They came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two of every creature with the breath of life.

15 وَدَخَلَتْ إِلَى نُوحٍ إِلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ، ٱثْنَيْنِ ٱثْنَيْنِ مِنْ كُلِّ جَسَدٍ فِيهِ رُوحُ حَيَاةٍ.

16 And they entered, the male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah. Then the LORD shut him in.

16 وَٱلدَّاخِلَاتُ دَخَلَتْ ذَكَرًا وَأُنْثَى، مِنْ كُلِّ ذِي جَسَدٍ، كَمَا أَمَرَهُ ٱللهُ. وَأَغْلَقَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِ.

17 For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth, and the waters rose and lifted the ark high above the earth.

17 وَكَانَ ٱلطُّوفَانُ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. وَتَكَاثَرَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ وَرَفَعَتِ ٱلْفُلْكَ، فَٱرْتَفَعَ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

18 So the waters continued to surge and rise greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the waters.

18 وَتَعَاظَمَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ وَتَكَاثَرَتْ جِدًّا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَكَانَ ٱلْفُلْكُ يَسِيرُ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْمِيَاهِ.

19 Finally, the waters completely prevailed upon the earth, so that all the high mountains under all the heavens were covered.

19 وَتَعَاظَمَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَتَغَطَّتْ جَمِيعُ ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلشَّامِخَةِ ٱلَّتِي تَحْتَ كُلِّ ٱلسَّمَاءِ.

20 The waters rose and covered the mountaintops to a depth of fifteen cubits.

20 خَمْسَ عَشَرَةَ ذِرَاعًا فِي ٱلِٱرْتِفَاعِ تَعَاظَمَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ، فَتَغَطَّتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ.

21 And every living thing that moved upon the earth perished—birds, livestock, animals, every creature that swarms upon the earth, and all mankind.

21 فَمَاتَ كُلُّ ذِي جَسَدٍ كَانَ يَدِبُّ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنَ ٱلطُّيُورِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمِ وَٱلْوُحُوشِ، وَكُلُّ ٱلزَّحَّافَاتِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ تَزْحَفُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَجَمِيعُ ٱلنَّاسِ.

22 Of all that was on dry land, everything that had the breath of life in its nostrils died.

22 كُلُّ مَا فِي أَنْفِهِ نَسَمَةُ رُوحِ حَيَاةٍ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا فِي ٱلْيَابِسَةِ مَاتَ.

23 And every living thing on the face of the earth was destroyed—man and livestock, crawling creatures and birds of the air; they were blotted out from the earth, and only Noah and those with him in the ark remained.

23 فَمَحَا ٱللهُ كُلَّ قَائِمٍ كَانَ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ: ٱلنَّاسَ، وَٱلْبَهَائِمَ، وَٱلدَّبَّابَاتِ، وَطُيُورَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. فَٱنْمَحَتْ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ. وَتَبَقَّى نُوحٌ وَٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ فِي ٱلْفُلْكِ فَقَطْ.

24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth for 150 days.

24 وَتَعَاظَمَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِئَةً وَخَمْسِينَ يَوْمًا.
