¹And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

¹¶ Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Noa, haere mai koutou ko tou whare katoa ki roto ki te aaka; kua kite hoki ahau i a koe he tika ki toku aroaro i tenei whakatupuranga.

²Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.

²Tangohia e koe etahi o nga kirehe pokekore, kia takiwhitu, te toa me tana uha: o nga kararehe poke hoki, kia takirua, te toa me tana uha:

³Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.

³Me nga manu ano hoki o te rangi, kia takiwhitu, te toa me te uha; kia ora ai he uri ki runga ki te mata o te whenua katoa.

⁴For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.

⁴Kia whitu ake hoki nga ra ka meatia e ahau kia ua te ua ki runga ki te whenua, kia wha tekau nga ra, kia wha tekau nga po; a ka whakangaromia atu e ahau i runga i te mata o te whenua nga mea ora katoa i hanga e ahau.

⁵And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him.

⁵¶ A rite tonu ta Noa i mea ai ki a Ihowa katoa i whakahau ai ki a ia.

⁶And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.

⁶Na e ono rau nga tau o Noa i te putanga mai o te waipuke ki runga ki te whenua.

⁷And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.

⁷Na ka tomo a Noa ratou tahi ko ana tama, ko tana wahine, ko nga wahine hoki a ana tama, ki roto ki te aaka, i te wehi i nga wai o te waipuke.

⁸Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,

⁸Me etahi o nga kirehe pokekore, o nga kirehe poke hoki, o nga manu, o nga mea katoa ano hoki e ngokingoki ana i runga i te whenua;

⁹There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

⁹I haere tatakirua ratou ki roto ki te aaka ki a Noa, te toa me te uha, i pera tonu me ta te Atua i whakahau ai ki a Noa.

¹⁰And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.

¹⁰Na i muri iho i nga ra e whitu ka puta mai nga wai o te waipuke ki runga ki te whenua.

¹¹In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

¹¹¶ No te ono rau o nga tau o te oranga o Noa, no te rua o nga marama, no te tekau ma whitu o nga ra o te marama, no taua rangi ano i pakaru mai ai nga matapuna katoa o te rire nui, a ka whakatuwheratia nga matapihi o te rangi.

¹²And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

¹²A e wha tekau nga ra, e wha tekau nga po, i ua ai te ua ki runga ki te whenua.

¹³In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

¹³¶ No taua rangi pu ano i tomo ai a Noa, ratou ko Hema, ko Hama, ko Iapeta, nga tama a Noa, ratou tahi ko te wahine a Noa, ko nga wahine tokotoru ano hoki a ana tama, ki roto ki te aaka;

¹⁴They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort.

¹⁴Ratou ko nga kirehe mohoao katoa o ia ahua, o ia ahua, ko nga kararehe katoa o ia ahua, o ia ahua, ko nga mea ngoki katoa e ngokingoki nei i runga i te whenua, o ia ahua, o ia ahua, me nga manu katoa, o ia ahua, o ia ahua, me nga mea whai parira u katoa, o ia ahua, o ia ahua.

¹⁵And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.

¹⁵Na ka haere ki roto ki te aaka ki a Noa, tatakirua o nga kikokiko katoa, o nga mea whai wairua ora.

¹⁶And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.

¹⁶Ko nga mea i haere, i haere he toa he uha o nga kikokiko katoa, he pera tonu me ta te Atua i whakahau ai ki a ai: a tutakina ana ia e Ihowa ki roto.

¹⁷And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.

¹⁷¶ A e wha tekau nga ra o te waipuke ki runga ki te whenua; a ka nui haere nga wai, ka whakamanutia ake te aaka, a ka maiangi ake ki runga i te whenua.

¹⁸And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.

¹⁸Na ka kaha nga wai, a ka tino nui haere ki runga ki te whenua; a ka tere te aaka i runga i te kare o nga wai.

¹⁹And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.

¹⁹Na kua tino kaha rawa nga wai ki runga ki te whenua; a ka taupokina nga maunga teitei katoa i raro i te rangi, a puta noa.

²⁰Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.

²⁰Kotahi tekau ma rima nga whatianga i pari ake ai nga wai; a taupokina ana nga maunga.

²¹And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:

²¹¶ Na ka mate nga kikokiko katoa i korikori i runga i te whenua; te manu, te kararehe, te kirehe, nga mea ngoki katoa hoki i ngokingoki i runga i te whenua, me nga tangata katoa:

²²All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.

²²Ko nga mea katoa kei roto nei i o ratou pongaihu te manawa ora, o nga mea katoa i te tuawhenua, i mate.

²³And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.

²³A ngaro iho nga mea ora katoa i runga i te mata o te whenua, te tangata, te kararehe, nga mea ngokingoki, me te manu o te rangi; i whakangaromia atu ratou i runga i te whenua: a toe ake ko te kotahi o Noa, me nga mea i a ia, i roto i te aaka.

²⁴And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.

²⁴A kotahi rau e rima tekau nga ra i huri ai nga wai ki runga ki te whenua.
