¹¶ Na ka mahara te atua ki a Noa, ki nga mea ora katoa me nga kararehe katoa ano hoki i a ia i roto i te aaka: na ka mea te Atua kia tika atu tetahi hau i runga i te whenua, a ka mariri nga wai.

¹And God remembereth Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle which [are] with him in the ark, and God causeth a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subside,

²A ka tutakina atu nga matapuna o te rire me nga matapihi o te rangi, ka whakamutua ano hoki te ua o te rangi.

²and closed are the fountains of the deep and the net-work of the heavens, and restrained is the shower from the heavens.

³Na ka hoki haere nga wai i runga i te whenua: a i te paunga o nga ra kotahi rau e rima tekau kua iti iho nga wai.

³And turn back do the waters from off the earth, going on and returning; and the waters are lacking at the end of a hundred and fifty days.

⁴¶ A i tau iho te aaka i te whitu o nga marama, i te kotahi tekau ma whitu o nga ra o te marama, ki runga ki nga maunga o Ararata.

⁴And the ark resteth, in the seventh month, in the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;

⁵Me te heke haere tonu o nga wai, a taea noatia te tekau o nga marama: no te tekau o nga marama, no te ra tuatahi o te marama, ka kitea nga tihi o nga maunga.

⁵and the waters have been going and becoming lacking till the tenth month; in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, appeared the heads of the mountains.

⁶¶ A, i te mutunga o nga ra e wha tekau, na ka uakina e Noa te matapihi o te aaka i hanga e ia:

⁶And it cometh to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah openeth the window of the ark which he made,

⁷A ka tukua atu e ia he raweni, a, ko tona rerenga atu, ka kopiko atu, ka kopiko mai, a maroke noa nga wai i runga i te whenua.

⁷and he sendeth forth the raven, and it goeth out, going out and turning back till the drying of the waters from off the earth.

⁸Na ka tukua atu ano e ia he kukupa, kia kitea ai kua iti iho ranei nga wai i runga i te mata o te whenua;

⁸And he sendeth forth the dove from him to see whether the waters have been lightened from off the face of the ground,

⁹A kihai i kitea e te kukupa tetahi taunga iho mo te takahanga o tona waewae, a ka hoki mai ki a ia, ki roto ki te aaka: i runga hoki nga wai i te mata o te whenua katoa: na ka totoro atu tona ringa, a hopukia ana ia, tangohia ana mai ki a ia ki r oto ki te aaka.

⁹and the dove hath not found rest for the sole of her foot, and she turneth back unto him, unto the ark, for waters [are] on the face of all the earth, and he putteth out his hand, and taketh her, and bringeth her in unto him, unto the ark.

¹⁰Na ka tatari ano ia, e whitu atu nga ra; a ka tukua atu ano e ia te kukupa i roto i te aaka:

¹⁰And he stayeth yet other seven days, and addeth to send forth the dove from the ark;

¹¹A i te ahiahi ka rere mai te kukupa ki a ia; na i roto i tona waha he rau oriwa, he mea korari mai; a ka mohio a Noa kua iti iho nga wai i runga i te whenua.

¹¹and the dove cometh in unto him at even-time, and lo, an olive leaf torn off in her mouth; and Noah knoweth that the waters have been lightened from off the earth.

¹²A ka tatari ano ia, e whitu atu ano nga ra; a tukua atu ana e ia te kukupa; a kihai tena i hoki mai ano ki a ia i muri iho.

¹²And he stayeth yet other seven days, and sendeth forth the dove, and it added not to turn back unto him any more.

¹³¶ A no te ono rau ma tahi o nga tau, no te marama tuatahi, no te ra tuatahi o te marama, i maroke atu ai nga wai i runga i te whenua: na ka hurahia atu e Noa te hipoki o te aaka, a ka kite, na, kua maroke te mata o te whenua.

¹³And it cometh to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first [month], in the first of the month, the waters have been dried from off the earth; and Noah turneth aside the covering of the ark, and looketh, and lo, the face of the ground hath been dried.

¹⁴A no te rua o nga marama, no te rua tekau ma whitu o nga ra o te marama, i maroke ai te whenua.

¹⁴And in the second month, in the seven and twentieth day of the month, the earth hath become dry.

¹⁵¶ Na ka korero te Atua ki a Noa, ka mea,

¹⁵And God speaketh unto Noah, saying, `Go out from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons` wives with thee;

¹⁶Puta mai koe i te aaka, koutou tahi ko tau wahine, ko au tama, me nga wahine a au tama.

¹⁶every living thing that [is] with thee, of all flesh, among fowl, and among cattle, and among every creeping thing which is creeping on the earth, bring out with thee;

¹⁷Kia puta tahi mai me koe nga mea ora katoa i a koe na, nga kikokiko katoa, nga manu, nga kararehe, me nga mea ngoki katoa e ngokingoki ana i runga i te whenua; a kia whakatuputupu ratou ki runga ki te whenua, kia hua, kia ngahue ki runga ki te w henua.

¹⁷and they have teemed in the earth, and been fruitful, and have multiplied on the earth.`

¹⁸Na ka puta a Noa, ratou tahi ko ana tama, ko tana wahine, me nga wahine a ana tama:

¹⁸And Noah goeth out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons` wives with him;

¹⁹Ka puta hoki i roto i te aaka nga kirehe katoa, nga mea ngokingoki katoa, nga manu katoa, me nga mea ngoki katoa i runga i te whenua o ia ahua, o ia ahua.

¹⁹every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl; every creeping thing on the earth, after their families, have gone out from the ark.

²⁰¶ Na ka hanga e Noa tetahi aata ma Ihowa, a ka tango ia i etahi o nga kararehe pokekore katoa, o nga manu pokekore katoa hoki, a whakaekea tinanatia ana e ia ki runga ki te aata.

²⁰And Noah buildeth an altar to Jehovah, and taketh of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and causeth burnt-offerings to ascend on the altar;

²¹Na ka hongi a Ihowa i roto i tona ngakau, E kore ahau e kanga ano i te oneone a muri ake nei mo nga mahi a te tangata; otiia he kino nga tokonga ake o te ngakau o te tangata, o tona taitamarikitanga ake ano; e kore ano hoki ahau e patu i nga mea ora katoa a muri ake nei, e penei me tenei meatanga aku.

²¹and Jehovah smelleth the sweet fragrance, and Jehovah saith unto His heart, `I continue not to disesteem any more the ground because of man, though the imagination of the heart of man [is] evil from his youth; and I continue not to smite any more all living, as I have done;

²²E mau ana te whenua, e kore e mutu te po rui me te po kokoti, te maeke me te mahana, te raumati me te hotoke, te ao me te po.

²²during all days of the earth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, do not cease.`
