Genesis 6

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 When men began to multiply on earth and daughters were born to them,	1 وحدث لما ابتدأ الناس يكثرون على الارض وولد لهم بنات
2 the sons of heaven saw how beautiful the daughters of man were, and so they took for their wives as many of them as they chose.	2 ان ابناء الله رأوا بنات الناس انهنّ حسنات. فاتّخذوا لانفسهم نساء من كل ما اختاروا.
3 Then the LORD said: "My spirit shall not remain in man forever, since he is but flesh. His days shall comprise one hundred and twenty years."	3 فقال الرب لا يدين روحي في الانسان الى الابد. لزيغانه هو بشر وتكون ايامه مئة وعشرين سنة.
4 At that time the Nephilim appeared on earth (as well as later), after the sons of heaven had intercourse with the daughters of man, who bore them sons. They were the heroes of old, the men of renown.	4 كان في الارض طغاة في تلك الايام. وبعد ذلك ايضا اذ دخل بنو الله على بنات الناس وولدن لهم اولادا. هؤلاء هم الجبابرة الذين منذ الدهر ذوو اسم
5 When the LORD saw how great was man's wickedness on earth, and how no desire that his heart conceived was ever anything but evil,	5 ورأى الرب ان شر الانسان قد كثر في الارض. وان كل تصور افكار قلبه انما هو شرير كل يوم.
6 he regretted that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was grieved.	6 فحزن الرب انه عمل الانسان في الارض. وتأسف في قلبه.
7 So the LORD said: "I will wipe out from the earth the men whom I have created, and not only the men, but also the beasts and the creeping things and the birds of the air, for I am sorry that I made them."	7 فقال الرب امحو عن وجه الارض الانسان الذي خلقته. الانسان مع بهائم ودبابات وطيور السماء. لاني حزنت اني عملتهم.
8 But Noah found favor with the LORD.	8 واما نوح فوجد نعمة في عيني الرب
9 These are the descendants of Noah. Noah, a good man and blameless in that age,	9 هذه مواليد نوح. كان نوح رجلا بارا كاملا في اجياله. وسار نوح مع الله.
10 for he walked with God, begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.	10 وولد نوح ثلاثة بنين ساما وحاما ويافث.
11 In the eyes of God the earth was corrupt and full of lawlessness.	11 وفسدت الارض امام الله وامتلأت الارض ظلما.
12 When God saw how corrupt the earth had become, since all mortals led depraved lives on earth,	12 ورأى الله الارض فاذا هي قد فسدت. اذ كان كل بشر قد افسد طريقه على الارض
13 he said to Noah: "I have decided to put an end to all mortals on earth; the earth is full of lawlessness because of them. So I will destroy them and all life on earth.	13 فقال الله لنوح نهاية كل بشر قد أتت امامي. لان الارض امتلأت ظلما منهم. فها انا مهلكهم مع الارض.
14 Make yourself an ark of gopherwood, put various compartments in it, and cover it inside and out with pitch.	14 اصنع لنفسك فلكا من خشب جفر. تجعل الفلك مساكن. وتطليه من داخل ومن خارج بالقار.
15 This is how you shall build it: the length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.	15 وهكذا تصنعه. ثلث مئة ذراع يكون طول الفلك وخمسين ذراعا عرضه وثلثين ذراعا ارتفاعه.
16 Make an opening for daylight in the ark, and finish the ark a cubit above it. Put an entrance in the side of the ark, which you shall make with bottom, second and third decks.	16 وتصنع كوا للفلك وتكمله الى حد ذراع من فوق. وتضع باب الفلك في جانبه. مساكن سفلية ومتوسطة وعلوية تجعله.
17 I, on my part, am about to bring the flood (waters) on the earth, to destroy everywhere all creatures in which there is the breath of life; everything on earth shall perish.	17 فها انا آت بطوفان الماء على الارض لاهلك كل جسد فيه روح حياة من تحت السماء. كل ما في الارض يموت.
18 But with you I will establish my covenant; you and your sons, your wife and your sons' wives, shall go into the ark.	18 ولكن اقيم عهدي معك. فتدخل الفلك انت وبنوك وامرأتك ونساء بنيك معك.
19 Of all other living creatures you shall bring two into the ark, one male and one female, that you may keep them alive with you.	19 ومن كل حيّ من كل ذي جسد اثنين من كلّ تدخل الى الفلك لاستبقائها معك. تكون ذكرا وانثى.
20 Of all kinds of birds, of all kinds of beasts, and of all kinds of creeping things, two of each shall come into the ark with you, to stay alive.	20 من الطيور كاجناسها ومن البهائم كاجناسها ومن كل دبابات الارض كاجناسها. اثنين من كلّ تدخل اليك لاستبقائها.
21 Moreover, you are to provide yourself with all the food that is to be eaten, and store it away, that it may serve as provisions for you and for them."	21 وانت فخذ لنفسك من كل طعام يؤكل واجمعه عندك. فيكون لك ولها طعاما.
22 This Noah did; he carried out all the commands that God gave him.	22 ففعل نوح حسب كل ما امره به الله. هكذا فعل
