Genesis 7

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 Then the LORD said to Noah: "Go into the ark, you and all your household, for you alone in this age have I found to be truly just.	1 Dixitque Dominus ad Noe: “Ingredere tu et omnis domus tua arcam; te enim vidi iustum coram me in generatione hac.
2 Of every clean animal, take with you seven pairs, a male and its mate; and of the unclean animals, one pair, a male and its mate;	2 Ex omnibus pecoribus mundis tolle septena septena, masculum et feminam; de pecoribus vero non mundis duo duo, masculum et feminam.
3 likewise, of every clean bird of the air, seven pairs, a male and a female, and of all the unclean birds, one pair, a male and a female. Thus you will keep their issue alive over all the earth.	3 Sed et de volatilibus caeli septena septena, masculum et feminam, ut salvetur semen super faciem universae terrae.
4 Seven days from now I will bring rain down on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and so I will wipe out from the surface of the earth every moving creature that I have made."	4 Adhuc enim et post dies septem ego pluam super terram quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus et delebo omnem substantiam, quam feci, de superficie terrae”.
5 Noah did just as the LORD had commanded him.	5 Fecit ergo Noe omnia, quae mandaverat ei Dominus.
6 Noah was six hundred years old when the flood waters came upon the earth.	6 Eratque Noe sescentorum annorum, quando diluvii aquae inundaverunt super terram.
7 Together with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives, Noah went into the ark because of the waters of the flood.	7 Et ingressus est Noe et filii eius, uxor eius et uxores filiorum eius cum eo in arcam propter aquas diluvii.
8 Of the clean animals and the unclean, of the birds, and of everything that creeps on the ground,	8 De pecoribus mundis et immundis et de volucribus et ex omni, quod movetur super terram,
9 (two by two) male and female entered the ark with Noah, just as the LORD had commanded him.	9 duo et duo ingressa sunt ad Noe in arcam, masculus et femina, sicut praeceperat Deus Noe.
10 As soon as the seven days were over, the waters of the flood came upon the earth.	10 Cumque transissent septem dies, aquae diluvii inundaverunt super terram.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month: it was on that day that All the fountains of the great abyss burst forth, and the floodgates of the sky were opened.	11 Anno sescentesimo vitae Noe, mense secundo, septimo decimo die mensis rupti sunt omnes fontes abyssi magnae, et cataractae caeli apertae sunt;
12 For forty days and forty nights heavy rain poured down on the earth.	12 et facta est pluvia super terram quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus.
13 On the precise day named, Noah and his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of Noah's sons had entered the ark,	13 In articulo diei illius ingressus est Noe et Sem et Cham et Iapheth filii eius, uxor illius et tres uxores filiorum eius cum eis in arcam.
14 together with every kind of wild beast, every kind of domestic animal, every kind of creeping thing of the earth, and every kind of bird.	14 Ipsi et omne animal secundum genus suum, universaque iumenta in genere suo, et omne reptile, quod movetur super terram in genere suo, cunctumque volatile secundum genus suum, universae aves omnesque volucres
15 Pairs of all creatures in which there was the breath of life entered the ark with Noah.	15 ingressae sunt ad Noe in arcam, bina et bina ex omni carne, in qua erat spiritus vitae.
16 Those that entered were male and female, and of all species they came, as God had commanded Noah. Then the LORD shut him in.	16 Et quae ingressa sunt, masculus et femina ex omni carne introierunt, sicut praeceperat ei Deus; et inclusit eum Dominus de foris.
17 The flood continued upon the earth for forty days. As the waters increased, they lifted the ark, so that it rose above the earth.	17 Factumque est diluvium quadraginta diebus super terram, et multiplicatae sunt aquae et elevaverunt arcam in sublime a terra.
18 The swelling waters increased greatly, but the ark floated on the surface of the waters.	18 Vehementer enim inundaverunt et omnia repleverunt in superficie terrae; porro arca ferebatur super aquas.
19 Higher and higher above the earth rose the waters, until all the highest mountains everywhere were submerged,	19 Et aquae praevaluerunt nimis super terram, opertique sunt omnes montes excelsi sub universo caelo.
20 the crest rising fifteen cubits higher than the submerged mountains.	20 Quindecim cubitis altior fuit aqua super montes, quos operuerat.
21 All creatures that stirred on earth perished: birds, cattle, wild animals, and all that swarmed on the earth, as well as all mankind.	21 Consumptaque est omnis caro, quae movebatur super terram, volucrum, pecorum, bestiarum omniumque reptilium, quae reptant super terram, et universi homines:
22 Everything on dry land with the faintest breath of life in its nostrils died out.	22 cuncta, in quibus spiraculum vitae in terra, mortua sunt.
23 The LORD wiped out every living thing on earth: man and cattle, the creeping things and the birds of the air; all were wiped out from the earth. Only Noah and those with him in the ark were left.	23 Et delevit omnem substantiam, quae erat super terram, ab homine usque ad pecus, usque ad reptile et usque ad volucres caeli; et deleta sunt de terra. Remansit autem solus Noe et qui cum eo erant in arca.
24 The waters maintained their crest over the earth for one hundred and fifty days,	24 Obtinueruntque aquae terram centum quinquaginta diebus.
