Genesis 8 (TDX)

1Nitiahin’Andrianañahare t’i Nòake naho ze raha veloñe iaby naho ze hene biby nindre ama’e an-dakam‑polo-ay ao. Le nampitiofen’ Añahare ambone’ ty tane toy ty tioke vaho nipendreñe i ranoy;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.

2najihetse iaby ze nitorotositse boak’ an-tsikeokeok’ ao naho o lalan-dikerañeo, naho nisebañeñe ty rano boak’an-dindiñe eñe;The springs of the deep and the floodgates of the heavens were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained.

3vaho nitolom-piketrak’ an-tane atoy i ranoy. Ie modo ty zato tsy limampolo andro le fa nizetse i ranoy;The waters receded steadily from the earth, and after 150 days the waters had gone down.

4le ami’ty volam-paha-fito, ami’ty andro faha folo-fito’ ambi’ i volañey le nisampe ambone’ ty vohits’ Ararate eo i lakam-poloaiy.On the seventeenth day of the seventh month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.

5Nitolom-pizetse avao i ranoy am-para’ ty volam-paha-folo; ie am-baloha’ i volam-pahafoloy le niboake o lengom-bohitseo.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.

6Ie nimodo ka ty efa-polo andro le sinoka’ i Nòake i lalan-kede namboare’e amy lakam-poloaiiyAfter forty days Noah opened the window he had made in the ark

7vaho nañirake koàke; nihelahela avao re ampara’ te nimaike ty rano ambone’ tane atoy.and sent out a raven. It kept flying back and forth until the waters had dried up from the earth.

8Nampandenà’e boak’ama’e ka ty deho ho mb’eo hahaoniñe hera nizetse an-tane atoy i ranoy;Then Noah sent out a dove to see if the waters had receded from the surface of the ground.

9fe tsy nahatrea ty hipetahan-tombo’e i dehoy, le nimpoly mb’an-dakam-poloay ao fa mboe nihanañe ambone’ ty tane toy iaby i ranoy. Aa le nahiti’e ty fità’e naho rinambe’e vaho nazili’e ho ama’e an-dakañe ao.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.

10Mbe nandiñe fito andro ka le nampisangitrife’e mb’eo boak’ amy lakañey indraike i dehoy;Noah waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark.

11ie amy harivay, nimpoly ama’e i dehoy, am-bava’e ao ty raven-olive nipotore’e anianike; aa le nirendre’ i Nòake te nitaketrak’ an-tane atoy o ranoo.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.

12Ie nandiñe fito andro ka le nirahe’e mb’eo i dehoy f’ie tsy nimpoly.And Noah waited seven more days and sent out the dove again, but this time she did not return to him.

13Ie amy taom-pahaenen-jato-raik’ ambiy, amy volam-baloha’ey, amy andro valoha’ i volañeiy, le nimaike o rano ambone’ tane atoio; le nakatra’ i Nòake ty lombo’ i lakam-poloaiy naho nisary, vaho niisa’e te nimaike ty ambone’ i taney.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.

14Amy volam-paha-roey, amy andro faha roa-polo-fito-ambi’ i volañeiy le nimaike ty tane toy.By the twenty-seventh day of the second month, the earth was fully dry.

15Aa hoe t’i Andrianañahare amy Nòake,Then God said to Noah,

16Iengao o lakam-poloaio, ihe naho ty vali’o naho o ana’oo vaho o valin’ ana’oo.“Come out of the ark, you and your wife, along with your sons and their wives.

17Akaro mindre ama’o ze fonga raha veloñe ama’ nofotse, o voroñeo naho o hareo naho ze hene mpisitsitse misariosario an-tane atoy, hibodobodo an-tane atoy naho hitomambao vaho hanarànake an-tane atoy.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.”

18Aa le niavotse t’i Nòake rekets’ o ana-dahi’eo naho i vali’ey naho o valin’ ana’eo.So Noah came out, along with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.

19Le sambe niakatse i lakañey ze biby naho raha milaly, naho o voroñeo naho ze misitsitse ambone’ ty tane toy amo karaza’eo.Every living creature, every creeping thing, and every bird—everything that moves upon the earth—came out of the ark, kind by kind.

20Aa le nañoreñe kitrely ho am’ Iehovà t’i Nòake vaho sindre nandrambesa’e ze biby malio naho ze voroñe malio vaho nañenga soroñe amy kitreliy.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.

21Ie naha’antsoñe i harifondrifoñañey t’Iehovà le hoe t’Iehovà añ’arofo’e ao, Tsy hafàko ka o taneo ty am’ondatio, fa raty boak’ami’ty faha-ajaja’e ty fisafirin’ arofo’ ondatio; vaho tsy ho rotsaheko ka ze kila raha veloñe manahake i nanoekoy.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.

22Aa naho mbe eo ty tane toy, le tsy ho modo ka ty sam-pitongisañe naho fitatahañe, ty hanintsiñe naho hatrovohañe, ty asara naho asotry, ty handro vaho haleñe.As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall never cease.”
