& @/ @. I5 C, g( ?+ y1 q　　Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time. Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight and full of violence. So God said to Noah, "I am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I am surely going to destroy both them and the earth. I am going to bring floodwaters on the earth to destroy
　　all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish. But with you I will make a covenant. Make yourself an ark of cypress wood, make rooms in it and coat it with pitch inside and out. You shall go into the ark,you and your sons, your wife and your sons' wives with you. And you shall bring into the ark two of all living creatures, male and female. to keep them alive with you. Two of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal and of every kind of creature that moves along the ground will come to you to be kept alive. You are to take and store every kind of food that is to be eaten and store it away as food for you and for them.'
　　诺亚是一个正直的人，在当时所有人中无可挑剔。上帝看见整个世界腐朽了，到处充斥着暴力。于是上帝对诺亚说：“我要毁灭所有的人类，世上因为他们而充满着暴力。我一定要毁掉他们以及这个世界。我要让洪水在全世界泛滥，消灭天下所有活着的生命，以及地上有气息的万物。世上的一切都将消亡。但我要与你立约，你要用柏木为自己造一艘方舟，分一间一间地造，再把船的里里外外涂上松脂。你到时带着你的儿子们、妻子和儿媳一起进入方舟。你还要带上各种生物上船，每种两只，一雌一雄，在船上把它们喂养好。每种飞禽两只、每种走兽两只、每种爬虫两只。你还要带上各种吃的东西，储存在船上，作为你们和动物的食粮。”
) R4 O/ {. m' {　　Noah did everything just as God commanded him.
　　诺亚遵照上帝的话，一一照办了。
　　Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters came on the earth. Noah went into the ark with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives. And into the ark with Noah went one pair, male and female, of all beasts, clean and unclean, of birds and of everything that crawls on the ground, two by two, as God had commanded.Towards the end of seven days the waters of the flood came upon the earth.
　　当洪水袭击地面时，诺亚已经六百岁了。诺亚和他的儿子们、妻子和儿媳们都上了方舟。和他一起登上方舟的还有每种一对的动物，所有的走兽，洁净的和不洁净的，都是一雌一雄;所有的鸟类和地上的爬虫，也是一对一对的。按照上帝的吩咐它们都上了船。第七天结束的时候，洪水降临到大地。
　　On the seventeenth day of the second month, all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. find rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights. The flood kept coming on the earth for forty days, and as the waters increased they lifted up the ark high above the ground.The waters rose and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water. They rose greatly on the earth, and all the high mountains under the entire heavens were covered. The waters rose and covered the mountains to a depth of more than twenty feet. Every living thing that moved on the earth perished-birds, livestock, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind. Every living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out; men and animals and the creatures that move along the ground and the birds of the air were wiped from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark.
