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

¹And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters were born unto them,

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

²that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all that they chose.

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 said, My spirit shall not strive with man for ever, for that he also is flesh: yet shall his days be a 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 Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them: the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.

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 saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

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

⁶And it repented Jehovah that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at 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 said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the ground; both man, and beast, and creeping things, and birds of the heavens; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

⁸Ale Noach našiel milosť v očiach Hospodinových.

⁸But Noah found favor in the eyes of Jehovah.

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

⁹These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, [and] perfect in his generations: Noah walked with God.

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

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

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

¹¹And the earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.

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

¹²And God saw the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way upon 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 unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

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

¹⁴Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

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

¹⁵And this is how thou shalt make it: the length of the ark three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

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 light shalt thou make to the ark, and to a cubit shalt thou finish it upward; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt 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.

¹⁷And I, behold, I do bring the flood of waters upon this earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; everything that is in the earth shall die.

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

¹⁸But I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' 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 every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.

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 birds after their kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.

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

²¹And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.

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

²²Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
