Freedom Bible (フリーダム・バイブル)
1And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark; and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged;
1神はノアと、彼と一緒に箱舟にいたすべての野の動物、すべての家畜を心に留められた。神が地の上に風を吹かせると、水は引いていった。
2the fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained.
2淵の源と天の窓は閉じられ、天からの雨は止められた。
3And the waters returned from off the earth continually; and after the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters decreased.
3水は地からしだいに引いていき、百五十日の終わりに水は減った。
4And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
4第七の月の十七日に、箱舟はアララトの山々の上にとどまった。
5And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
5水は第十の月まで、しだいに減り続けた。第十の月の一日に、山々の頂が現れた。
6And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made.
6四十日の終わりに、ノアは自分が造った箱舟の窓を開け、
7And he sent forth a raven, and it went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
7烏を放った。烏は、地から水が乾ききるまで、行ったり来たりした。
8And he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground.
8ノアはまた、地の表から水が引いたかどうかを見るために、鳩を放った。
9But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him to the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth; and he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her in unto him into the ark.
9しかし、全地の表に水があったため、鳩は足を休める場所を見つけられず、箱舟のノアのもとへ戻って来た。ノアは手を伸ばして鳩を捕らえ、箱舟の中の自分のところへ引き入れた。
10And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.
10ノアはさらに七日待ち、再び箱舟から鳩を放った。
11And the dove came in to him at eventide; and lo in her mouth an olive-leaf freshly plucked; so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
11夕方になって、鳩はノアのもとへ戻って来た。見よ、そのくちばしには、摘み取られたばかりのオリーブの葉があった。こうしてノアは、地から水が引いたことを知った。
12And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; and she returned not again unto him any more.
12ノアはさらに七日待ち、鳩を放った。鳩は二度と彼のもとへ戻って来なかった。
13And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dried.
13第六百一年の第一の月、その月の一日に、地の水は乾いた。ノアは箱舟の覆いを取り外して見た。見よ、地の表は乾いていた。
14And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dry.
14第二の月の二十七日に、地は完全に乾いた。
15And God spoke unto Noah, saying:
15神はノアに告げられた。
16'Go forth from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
16「あなた、あなたの妻、あなたの息子たち、あなたの息子たちの妻たちは、一緒に箱舟から出なさい。
17Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee of all flesh, both fowl, and cattle, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may swarm in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.'
17あなたと一緒にいるすべての肉なるあらゆる生き物、鳥、家畜、地を這うすべてのものを一緒に連れ出しなさい。彼らが地に満ち広がり、地の上で子を生み、増えるためである。」
18And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him;
18ノアは、息子たち、妻、息子たちの妻たちと一緒に外に出た。
19every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, whatsoever moveth upon the earth, after their families; went forth out of the ark.
19すべての野の動物、すべての這うもの、すべての鳥、地の上を動くすべてのものは、それぞれの家族ごとに箱舟から出た。
20And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt-offerings on the altar.
20ノアは主のために祭壇を築き、すべての清い動物と清い鳥の中から取り、祭壇の上に全焼のささげ物をささげた。
21And the LORD smelled the sweet savour; and the LORD said in His heart: 'I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
21主はその芳ばしい香りをかがれた。主は心の中で言われた。「わたしは、人のゆえに二度と地を呪うことはしない。人の心に思い計ることは、幼い時から悪いからである。わたしは、わたしが行ったように、すべての生き物を二度と打ち滅ぼすことはしない。
22While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.'
22地が続く限り、種蒔きと刈り入れ、寒さと暑さ、夏と冬、昼と夜がやむことはない。」
