1God remembered Noah, all the animals, and all the livestock that were with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth. The waters subsided.
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 deep’s fountains and the sky’s windows were also stopped, and the rain from the sky 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。
3The waters continually receded from the earth. After the end of one hundred fifty days the waters receded.
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。
4The ship rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on Ararat’s mountains.
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。
5The waters receded continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were visible.
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。
6At the end of forty days, Noah opened the window of the ship 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 out a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters were dried up from 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。
8He himself sent out a dove to see if the waters were abated from the surface 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 place to rest her foot, and she returned into the ship to him, for the waters were on the surface of the whole earth. He put out his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ship.
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。
10He waited yet another seven days; and again he sent the dove out of the ship.
10ノアはさらに七日待ち、再び箱舟から鳩を放った。
11The dove came back to him at evening and, behold, in her mouth was a freshly plucked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the waters were abated from 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。
12He waited yet another seven days, and sent out the dove; and she didn’t return to 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。
13In the six hundred first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from the earth. Noah removed the covering of the ship, and looked. He saw that the surface of the ground was dry.
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。
14In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
14第二の月の二十七日に、地は完全に乾いた。
15God spoke to Noah, saying,
15神はノアに告げられた。
16“Go out of the ship, you, your wife, your sons, and your sons’ wives with you.
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 out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh, including birds, livestock, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply on 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。」
18Noah went out, with his sons, 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 animal, every creeping thing, and every bird, whatever moves on the earth, after their families, went out of the ship.
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。
20Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal, and of every clean bird, 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。
21The LORD smelled the pleasant aroma. The LORD said in his heart, “I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake because the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth. I will never again strike every living thing, 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 remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night will 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。」
