Genesis 8 (MSY2020)

1Ezɨ dughiar kamɨn God Noa ko asɨzir a ko kurimɨn itiba gɨn amadazir puvatɨ, a me gɨnɨghnɨghavɨra ikiava amɨnim amadazɨ a dɨpam gisɨn ivaima dɨpam sɨvagha uaghiri.But God remembered Noah and all the animals and livestock that were with him in the ark. And God sent a wind over the earth, and the waters began to subside.

2Ezɨ dɨpar nguazimɨn averiamɨn izim uam anadir puvatɨ. Ezɨ overiamɨn amozim izir tuaviba pɨrizɨ, amozim ua izaghirir puvatɨ.The springs of the deep and the floodgates of the heavens were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained.

3Ezɨ dɨpam ghuaghira ghua, 150plan dughiaba gɨvazɨma dɨpam daka uaghiravɨra iti.The waters receded steadily from the earth, and after 150 days the waters had gone down.

4Ezɨ iakɨnir namba 7ɨn dughiar namba 17ɨn kurim Araratɨn Mɨghsɨabar itir danganimɨn mɨghsɨar mamɨn apera.On the seventeenth day of the seventh month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.

5Ezɨ dɨpam, daka uaghiravɨra ikia ghua iakɨnir namba 10ɨn dughiar namba 1ɨn tuzɨ, dughiar kamra mɨghsɨabar ghuaba otifi.And the waters continued to recede until the tenth month, and on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains became visible.

6Ezɨ 40plan dughiaba gɨvazɨma, Noa kurimɨn windua kuigha, kuarazir ziam kotkot amadazɨma, a ghugha ua izezir puvatɨ. A mɨgha aruavɨra ikiav itima dɨpam dakezɨ nguazim mɨsɨngi.After forty days Noah opened the window he had made in the ark

8Ezɨ Noa foghasa, nguazim mɨsɨngis, o puvatɨ. Egha kamaghɨn, kuarazir ziam bunbam amadazɨma, a zui.Then Noah sent out a dove to see if the waters had receded from the surface of the ground.

9Ezɨ dɨpam nguazim avaragha ikiavɨra itima, kuarazir bunbam dapian danganibagh asa, kamakɨn dɨpam mong pɨn ikiavɨra iti. Ezɨ a uamategha kurimɨn ghuzɨ, Noa dafarim amadagha uam a inigha aven ghu.But the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him in the ark, because the waters were still covering the surface of all the earth. So he reached out his hand and brought her back inside the ark.

10Ezɨ 7plan dughiaba gɨvazɨma, Noa ua kuarazir bunbam amada.Noah waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark.

11Ezɨ dughiar kamɨn bar guaratɨzimɨn kuarazir bunbam uamategha a bagha izi. Egha uan akamɨn olivɨn temer dafarir igiar mam iviragha izi. Ezɨ Noa kamaghɨn fo, dɨpam dakegha gɨfa.And behold, the dove returned to him in the evening with a freshly plucked olive leaf in her beak. So Noah knew that the waters had receded from the earth.

12Egha a 7plan dughiabar uam orarkegha kuarazir bunbam uam anemada. Ezɨ kuarazir bunbam ua izezir puvatɨ.And Noah waited seven more days and sent out the dove again, but this time she did not return to him.

13Ezɨ Noa dughiar kamɨn 601plan azeniba iti, ezɨ iakɨnir namba 1, an dughiar namba 1 otozɨ dɨpam mɨdɨi. Ezɨ a kurimɨn siriam mɨkɨnizir avavem asigha azenan danganiba bar deravɨra dar gari, nguazim mɨsɨngi.In Noah’s six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters had dried up from the earth. So Noah removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry.

14Egha ghua iakɨnir namba 2ɨn, namba 27ɨn dughiam otozɨ, nguazim bar mɨsɨngi.By the twenty-seventh day of the second month, the earth was fully dry.

15Ezɨ God Noa mɨgɨa ghaze,Then God said to Noah,

16“Nɨ, uan amuim ko, nɨn otariba uan amuiba ko, ia kurim ategh magɨrɨ.“Come out of the ark, you and your wife, along with your sons and their wives.

17Egh angamɨra itir asɨziba bar, kuaraziba ko asɨzir ruarim ko nguibamɨn itiba, nɨ bar moghɨra da inigh magɨrɨ. Eghtɨ da bar otɨv arogh avɨrasemeghɨva nguazir kam bar an angɨ.”Bring out all the living creatures that are with you—birds, livestock, and everything that crawls upon the ground—so that they can spread out over the earth and be fruitful and multiply upon it.”

18Ezɨ Noa uan amuim ko an otariba, uan amuiba ko uaghiri.So Noah came out, along with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.

19Ezɨ kuaraziba ko asɨzir avɨrir guar magh gariba vaghvagha uari uari abɨgha uari akuva egha azenan izi.Every living creature, every creeping thing, and every bird—everything that moves upon the earth—came out of the ark, kind by kind.

20Egha Noa Ikiavɨra Itir Godɨn ziam fasa ofa damuamin danganir mamɨn ingari. Egha Godɨn damazimɨn zuezir asɨzir guar avɨriba, dar vamɨra vamɨra inigha, kuarazir Godɨn damazimɨn zueziba dar vamɨra vamɨra inigha dav suegha God bagha ofa gami. Egha da tuezɨ da bar isigha mɨghɨri.Then Noah built an altar to the LORD. And taking from every kind of clean animal and clean bird, he offered burnt offerings on the altar.

21Ezɨ Ikiavɨra Itir God Noa amizir mughuriar aghuim zuir ofa bagha bar ifuegha ghaze, “Kɨ ua gumazamizibar arazir kuraba bagh nguazim gasɨghasɨghan kogham. Guizbangɨra, gumazamiziba boribar mɨn ikia ghua asangizir dughiamɨn, me bar arazir kuram damuamin nɨghnɨziba iti. Ezɨ bizir kam bagha, kɨ biziba bar dagh asɨghasɨki. Egh kɨ dughiar kamɨn amizir arazir kamɨn mɨrara, uamategh angamɨra itir biziba bar dagh asɨghasɨghan kogham.When the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.

22Eghtɨ nguazim ikɨvɨra ikɨtɨ dughiar kaba uaghan otivɨra ikiam, dughiar dagheba opariba ko dagheba iniamba, dughiar orangtɨziba ko fefeba, dughiar amoziba iziba ko arueba gariba ko dɨmagariba ko arueba. Dughiar kaba gɨvaghan kogh mangɨ nguazim gɨvamin dughiam otogham.”As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall never cease.”
