2Kathounge saring dawk e anatongpa hoi anapui phun sari, kathounghoehe saring dawk e anatongpa hoi anapui phun hni touh,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;

3kalvan e tava thung dawk e hai anatongpa hoi anapui phun sari touh telah lengkaleng talai van dawk hoi hlout sak hanelah, nama koe na thokhai han.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.

4Bangkongtetpawiteh, atu hoi kamtawng vaiteh hnin sari touh akuep navah, hnin 40 touh hoi a rum 40 touh thung kho ka rak sak vaiteh, ka sak e kahring e pueng koung ka raphoe han.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.”

5BAWIPA ni kâ a poe e patetlah Noah ni a sak.And Noah did all that the LORD had commanded him.

6Talai van dawk tuikamuem a tho navah, Noah teh kum 600 touh a pha.Now Noah was 600 years old when the floodwaters came upon the earth.

7Tuikamuem kecu dawk, Noah hoi a capanaw, a yu hoi a langanaw teh a hlout nahanelah long thung a kâen awh.And Noah and his wife, with his sons and their wives, entered the ark to escape the waters of the flood.

8Cathut ni Noah koe kâ a poe e patetlah kathounge saringnaw hoi kathounghoehe saringnaw tavanaw hoi vonpui hoi kâva e saringnaw dawk e,The clean and unclean animals, the birds, and everything that crawls along the ground

9a napui hoi a na tongpanaw teh Noah hoi cungtalah long thung a kâen awh.came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.

10Hnin sari touh akuep hnukkhu hoi tuikamuem teh talai van a tho.And after seven days the floodwaters came upon the earth.

11Noah a kum 600 nae kum, thapa ayung pahni, hnin 17 nah, kadung poung e tuikhu pueng a kamawng teh kalvannaw dawk e hlalangaw pueng hai a kamawng.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.

12Hathnukkhu, hnin 40 touh hoi rum 40 touh talai van vah kho a rak.And the rain fell upon the earth for forty days and forty nights.

13Hote hnin dawk Noah hoi a capanaw, Shem, Ham, hoi Japheth, Noah e a yu hoi a langanaw teh long thung a kâen awh.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—

14Ahnimouh hoi saring phun, sarang phun, talai dawk kâva e pueng dawk e phun, kamleng e tava phun, rathei ka tawn e pueng dawk e phun, a yuvâ lahoi long thung a kâen awh.they and every kind of wild animal, livestock, crawling creature, bird, and winged creature.

15Hringnae kâha ka tawn e pueng a yuvâ lahoi long thung Noah koe a kâen awh.They came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two of every creature with the breath of life.

16Hottelah Cathut ni lawk a thui e patetlah saring thung dawk e anatongpa hoi anapui a kâen sak teh, BAWIPA ni Noah teh athung vah tho a khan sin.And they entered, the male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah. Then the LORD shut him in.

17Tuikamuem teh talai van hnin 40 touh thung a kamuem. Tui hoehoe a len teh talai dawk hoi long teh a kâtakhoe teh a tawm.For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth, and the waters rose and lifted the ark high above the earth.

18Talai van tui hoehoe a len teh, long teh tui van lah hoehoe a kâtawm.So the waters continued to surge and rise greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the waters.

19Hahoi, tui teh talai van dawk a tha hoehoe ao teh, kalvan rahim kaawm e mon ka rasang pueng koung a muem.Finally, the waters completely prevailed upon the earth, so that all the high mountains under all the heavens were covered.

20Tui ni a muem e monnaw e a lathueng tui teh dong 15 touh arasang.The waters rose and covered the mountaintops to a depth of fifteen cubits.

21Hatdawkvah, talai van ka kâroe e tava, sarang, saring, talai dawk ka kâva e saring pueng hoi tami pueng teh koung a due awh.And every living thing that moved upon the earth perished—birds, livestock, animals, every creature that swarms upon the earth, and all mankind.

22A oung lah kaawm e pueng hai koung a due.Of all that was on dry land, everything that had the breath of life in its nostrils died.

23Hottelah talai van kaawm ni teh hringnae ka tawn e pueng, tami hoi saring, a von hoi ka kâvanaw hoi kalvan e tavanaw koung a thei. Noah hoi cungtalah long thung kaawmnaw dueng doeh kahlout.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.

24Hnin 150 touh thung tui teh talai van a kamuem.And the waters prevailed upon the earth for 150 days.
