¹A stalo sa, keď sa začali ľudia množiť na tvári zeme, a narodily sa im dcéry,

¹And it cometh to pass that mankind have begun to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters have been born to them,

²že videli synovia Boží ľudské dcéry, že sú krásne, a brali si ženy zo všetkých, ktoré si volili.

²and sons of God see the daughters of men that they [are] fair, and they take to themselves women of all whom they have chosen.

³A Hospodin riekol: Nebude sa môj Duch prieť s človekom na veky v jeho blúdení; je telo, a bude jeho dní sto dvadsať rokov.

³And Jehovah saith, `My Spirit doth not strive in man — to the age; in their erring they [are] flesh:` and his days have been an hundred and twenty years.

⁴V tých dňoch boli obrovia na zemi, a tiež i potom, keď vchádzali synovia Boží k ľudským dcéram a rodily im. To boli tí siláci, ktorí sú od veku mužmi povestného mena.

⁴The fallen ones were in the earth in those days, and even afterwards when sons of God come in unto daughters of men, and they have borne to them — they [are] the heroes, who, from of old, [are] the men of name.

⁵A Hospodin videl, že sa množí zlosť človeka na zemi, a že všetko, čokoľvek vytvoria myšlienky jeho srdca, je len zlé po všetky dni.

⁵And Jehovah seeth that abundant [is] the wickedness of man in the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil all the day;

⁶A Hospodin ľutoval, že učinil človeka na zemi, a mal bolesť vo svojom srdci.

⁶and Jehovah repenteth that He hath made man in the earth, and He grieveth Himself — unto His heart.

⁷A Hospodin riekol: Zahladím človeka, ktorého som stvoril, s tvári zeme, zahladím všetko od človeka až do hoväda, až do zemeplazu a až do nebeského vtáka, lebo ľutujem, že som ich učinil.

⁷And Jehovah saith, `I wipe away man whom I have prepared from off the face of the ground, from man unto beast, unto creeping thing, and unto fowl of the heavens, for I have repented that I have made them.`

⁸Ale Noach našiel milosť v očiach Hospodinových.

⁸And Noah found grace in the eyes of Jehovah.

⁹Toto sú rody Noachove: Noach bol spravedlivý muž dokonalý vo svojich pokoleniach. Noach chodil s Bohom.

⁹These [are] births of Noah: Noah [is] a righteous man; perfect he hath been among his generations; with God hath Noah walked habitually.

¹⁰A Noach splodil troch synov: Sema, Chama a Jafeta.

¹⁰And Noah begetteth three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

¹¹A zem bola porušená pred Bohom a zem bola naplnená ukrutnosťou.

¹¹And the earth is corrupt before God, and the earth is filled [with] violence.

¹²A Bôh videl zem, a hľa, bola porušená, lebo každé telo bolo porušilo svoju cestu na zemi.

¹²And God seeth the earth, and lo, it hath been corrupted, for all flesh hath corrupted its way on the earth.

¹³A Bôh riekol Noachovi: Koniec každého tela prišiel predo mňa, lebo zem je plná ukrutnosti od nich, a hľa, zkazím ich aj so zemou.

¹³And God said to Noah, `An end of all flesh hath come before Me, for the earth hath been full of violence from their presence; and lo, I am destroying them with the earth.

¹⁴Učiň si koráb z dreva gófera; a spravíš koráb s priehradami a pokryješ ho zvnútra i zvonku smolou.

¹⁴`Make for thyself an ark of gopher-wood; rooms dost thou make with the ark, and thou hast covered it within and without with cypress;

¹⁵A spravíš ho na takýto spôsob: tristo lakťov bude dĺžka korábu, päťdesiat lakťov jeho šírka a tridsať lakťov jeho výška.

¹⁵and this [is] that which thou dost with it: three hundred cubits [is] the length of the ark, fifty cubits its breadth, and thirty cubits its height;

¹⁶Korábu spravíš oblok, a to na lakeť a zavrieš ho, shora. A dvere korábu umiestiš na jeho boku; spravíš ho s poschodiami, so spodným, druhým a tretím poschodím.

¹⁶a window dost thou make for the ark, and unto a cubit thou dost restrain it from above; and the opening of the ark thou dost put in its side, — lower, second, and third [stories] dost thou make it.

¹⁷A ja, hľa, uvediem potopu vôd na zem, aby som skazil každé telo, v ktorom je duch života pod nebom; všetko, čo je na zemi, zomrie.

¹⁷`And I, lo, I am bringing in the deluge of waters on the earth to destroy all flesh, in which [is] a living spirit, from under the heavens; all that [is] in the earth doth expire.

¹⁸A postavím svoju smluvu s tebou, a vojdeš do korábu ty i tvoji synovia i tvoja žena i ženy tvojich synov s tebou.

¹⁸`And I have established My covenant with thee, and thou hast come in unto the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy son`s wives with thee;

¹⁹A zo všetkých zvierat, z každého tela, po dvoje uvedieš z každého do korábu, aby si ich zachoval živé so sebou; samec a samica budú.

¹⁹and of all that liveth, of all flesh, two of every [sort] thou dost bring in unto the ark, to keep alive with thee; male and female are they.

²⁰Z vtáctva podľa jeho druhu, z hoviad podľa ich druhu, zo všetkých zemeplazov podľa ich druhu, po dvoje z každého vojdú k tebe, aby boly zachované živé.

²⁰Of the fowl after its kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every [sort] they come in unto thee, to keep alive.

²¹A ty si naber z každej potraviny, ktorá sa jie, a shromaždíš to k sebe a bude to tebe aj im na pokrm.

²¹`And thou, take to thyself of all food that is eaten; and thou hast gathered unto thyself, and it hath been to thee and to them for food.`

²²A Noach učinil všetko tak, ako mu prikázal Bôh; tak učinil.

²²And Noah doth according to all that God hath commanded him; so hath he done.
