Genesis 7 — سفر التكوين الإصحاح 7
בְּרֵאשִׁית פרק ז׳
The first book of the Torah, covering creation, primordial history, and the patriarchs.
וַיֹּ֤אמֶר ה׳ לְנֹ֔חַ בֹּֽא־אַתָּ֥ה וְכׇל־בֵּיתְךָ֖ אֶל־הַתֵּבָ֑ה כִּֽי־אֹתְךָ֥ רָאִ֛יתִי צַדִּ֥יק לְפָנַ֖י בַּדּ֥וֹר הַזֶּֽה׃
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِنُوحٍ: «هَيَّا ادْخُلْ أَنْتَ وَأَهْلُ بَيْتِكَ جَمِيعاً إِلَى الْفُلْكِ لأَنِّي وَجَدْتُكَ وَحْدَكَ صَالِحاً أَمَامِي فِي هَذَا الْجِيلِ.
And 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.
מִכֹּ֣ל ׀ הַבְּהֵמָ֣ה הַטְּהוֹרָ֗ה תִּֽקַּח־לְךָ֛ שִׁבְעָ֥ה שִׁבְעָ֖ה אִ֣ישׁ וְאִשְׁתּ֑וֹ וּמִן־הַבְּהֵמָ֡ה אֲ֠שֶׁ֠ר לֹ֣א טְהֹרָ֥ה הִ֛וא שְׁנַ֖יִם אִ֥ישׁ וְאִשְׁתּֽוֹ׃
خُذْ مَعَكَ مِنْ كُلِّ نَوْعٍ مِنَ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ الطَّاهِرَةِ سَبْعَةَ ذُكُورٍ وَسَبْعَ إِنَاثٍ، وَاثْنَيْنِ، ذَكَراً وَأُنْثَى مِنْ كُلِّ نَوْعٍ مِنَ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ الأُخْرَى غَيْرِ الطَّاهِرَةِ.
Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee seven and seven, each with his mate; and of the beasts that are not clean two [and two], each with his mate;
גַּ֣ם מֵע֧וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֛יִם שִׁבְעָ֥ה שִׁבְעָ֖ה זָכָ֣ר וּנְקֵבָ֑ה לְחַיּ֥וֹת זֶ֖רַע עַל־פְּנֵ֥י כׇל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃
وَخُذْ مَعَكَ أَيْضاً مِنْ كُلِّ نَوْعٍ مِنَ الطُّيُورِ سَبْعَةَ ذُكُورٍ وَسَبْعَ إِنَاثٍ لاسْتِبْقَاءِ نَسْلِهَا عَلَى وَجْهِ كُلِّ الأَرْضِ.
of the fowl also of the air, seven and seven, male and female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
כִּי֩ לְיָמִ֨ים ע֜וֹד שִׁבְעָ֗ה אָֽנֹכִי֙ מַמְטִ֣יר עַל־הָאָ֔רֶץ אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים לָ֑יְלָה וּמָחִ֗יתִי אֶֽת־כׇּל־הַיְקוּם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשִׂ֔יתִי מֵעַ֖ל פְּנֵ֥י הָֽאֲדָמָֽה׃
فَإِنِّي بَعْدَ سَبْعَةِ أَيَّامٍ أُمْطِرُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْماً، لَيْلاً وَنَهَاراً، فَأَمْحُو عَنْ وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ كُلَّ مَخْلُوقٍ حَيٍّ».
For 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 blot out from off the face of the earth.’
וַיַּ֖עַשׂ נֹ֑חַ כְּכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּ֖הוּ ה׳
وَفَعَلَ نُوحٌ بِمُوْجِبِ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَهُ الرَّبُّ بِهِ.
And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him.
וְנֹ֕חַ בֶּן־שֵׁ֥שׁ מֵא֖וֹת שָׁנָ֑ה וְהַמַּבּ֣וּל הָיָ֔ה מַ֖יִם עַל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃
وَكَانَ عُمْرُ نُوحٍ سِتَّ مِئَةِ سَنَةٍ عِنْدَمَا حَدَثَ طُوفَانُ الْمَاءِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ.
And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
וַיָּ֣בֹא נֹ֗חַ וּ֠בָנָ֠יו וְאִשְׁתּ֧וֹ וּנְשֵֽׁי־בָנָ֛יו אִתּ֖וֹ אֶל־הַתֵּבָ֑ה מִפְּנֵ֖י מֵ֥י הַמַּבּֽוּל׃
فَدَخَلَ نُوحٌ إِلَى الْفُلْكِ مَعَ زَوْجَتِهِ وَأَبْنَائِهِ وَزَوْجَاتِهِمْ (لِيَنْجُوا) مِنْ مِيَاهِ الطُّوفَانِ.
And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, before the waters of the flood.
מִן־הַבְּהֵמָה֙ הַטְּהוֹרָ֔ה וּמִ֨ן־הַבְּהֵמָ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֵינֶ֖נָּה טְהֹרָ֑ה וּמִ֨ן־הָע֔וֹף וְכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־רֹמֵ֖שׂ עַל־הָֽאֲדָמָֽה׃
وَكَذَلِكَ الْحَيَوَانَاتُ الطَّاهِرَةُ وَغَيْرُ الطَّاهِرَةِ، وَالطُّيُورُ وَالزَّوَاحِفُ،
Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the ground,
שְׁנַ֨יִם שְׁנַ֜יִם בָּ֧אוּ אֶל־נֹ֛חַ אֶל־הַתֵּבָ֖ה זָכָ֣ר וּנְקֵבָ֑ה כַּֽאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה אֱ-לֹהִים אֶת־נֹֽחַ׃
دَخَلَتْ مَعَ نُوحٍ إِلَى الْفُلْكِ اثْنَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ، ذَكَراً وَأُنْثَى، كَمَا أَمَرَ الرَّبّ (هَاشِيم) نُوحاً.
there went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, male and female, as God commanded Noah.
וַיְהִ֖י לְשִׁבְעַ֣ת הַיָּמִ֑ים וּמֵ֣י הַמַּבּ֔וּל הָי֖וּ עַל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃
وَمَا إِنِ انْقَضَتِ الأَيَّامُ السَّبْعَةُ حَتَّى فَاضَتِ الْمِيَاهُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ
And it came to pass after the seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
בִּשְׁנַ֨ת שֵׁשׁ־מֵא֤וֹת שָׁנָה֙ לְחַיֵּי־נֹ֔חַ בַּחֹ֙דֶשׁ֙ הַשֵּׁנִ֔י בְּשִׁבְעָֽה־עָשָׂ֥ר י֖וֹם לַחֹ֑דֶשׁ בַּיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֗ה נִבְקְעוּ֙ כׇּֽל־מַעְיְנֹת֙*(בספרי ספרד ואשכנז מַעְיְנוֹת֙) תְּה֣וֹם רַבָּ֔ה וַאֲרֻבֹּ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם נִפְתָּֽחוּ׃
فَفِي سَنَةِ سِتِّ مَئَةٍ مِنْ عُمْرِ نُوحٍ، فِي الشَّهْرِ الثَّانِي، فِي الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنْهُ، تَفَجَّرَتِ الْمِيَاهُ مِنَ اللُّجَجِ الْعَمِيقَةِ فِي بَاطِنِ الأَرْضِ، وَهَطَلَتْ أَمْطَارُ السَّمَاءِ الْغَزِيرَةُ،
In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
וַיְהִ֥י הַגֶּ֖שֶׁם עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים לָֽיְלָה׃
وَاسْتَمَرَّ هَذَا الطُّوفَانُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ لَيْلاً وَنَهَاراً مُدَّةَ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْماً.
And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
בְּעֶ֨צֶם הַיּ֤וֹם הַזֶּה֙ בָּ֣א נֹ֔חַ וְשֵׁם־וְחָ֥ם וָיֶ֖פֶת בְּנֵי־נֹ֑חַ וְאֵ֣שֶׁת נֹ֗חַ וּשְׁלֹ֧שֶׁת נְשֵֽׁי־בָנָ֛יו אִתָּ֖ם אֶל־הַתֵּבָֽה׃
فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي بَدَأَ فِيهِ الطُّوفَانُ دَخَلَ نُوحٌ وَزَوْجَتُهُ وَأَبْنَاؤُهُ سَامٌ وَحَامٌ وَيَافَثُ وَزَوْجَاتُهُمُ الثَّلَاثُ إِلَى الْفُلْكِ.
In 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;
הֵ֜מָּה וְכׇל־הַֽחַיָּ֣ה לְמִינָ֗הּ וְכׇל־הַבְּהֵמָה֙ לְמִינָ֔הּ וְכׇל־הָרֶ֛מֶשׂ הָרֹמֵ֥שׂ עַל־הָאָ֖רֶץ לְמִינֵ֑הוּ וְכׇל־הָע֣וֹף לְמִינֵ֔הוּ כֹּ֖ל צִפּ֥וֹר כׇּל־כָּנָֽף׃
وَدَخَلَ مَعَهُمْ أَيْضاً مِنَ الْوُحُوشِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ وَالزَّوَاحِفِ وَالطُّيُورِ وَذَوَاتِ الأَجْنِحَةِ كُلٍّ حَسَبَ أَصْنَافِهَا؛
they, and every beast after its kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind, and every fowl after its kind, every bird of every sort.
וַיָּבֹ֥אוּ אֶל־נֹ֖חַ אֶל־הַתֵּבָ֑ה שְׁנַ֤יִם שְׁנַ֙יִם֙ מִכׇּל־הַבָּשָׂ֔ר אֲשֶׁר־בּ֖וֹ ר֥וּחַ חַיִּֽים׃
مِنْ جَمِيعِ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ أَقْبَلَتْ إِلَى الْفُلْكِ، وَدَخَلَتْ مَعَ نُوحٍ اثْنَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ،
And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh wherein is the breath of life.
וְהַבָּאִ֗ים זָכָ֨ר וּנְקֵבָ֤ה מִכׇּל־בָּשָׂר֙ בָּ֔אוּ כַּֽאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה אֹת֖וֹ אֱ-לֹהִים וַיִּסְגֹּ֥ר ה׳ בַּֽעֲדֽוֹ׃
ذَكَراً وَأُنْثَى دَخَلَتْ، مِنْ كُلِّ ذِي جَسَدٍ، كَمَا أَمَرَهُ الرَّبّ (هَاشِيم). ثُمَّ أَغْلَقَ الرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِ بَابَ الْفُلْكِ.
And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him; and the LORD shut him in.
וַֽיְהִ֧י הַמַּבּ֛וּל אַרְבָּעִ֥ים י֖וֹם עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיִּרְבּ֣וּ הַמַּ֗יִם וַיִּשְׂאוּ֙ אֶת־הַתֵּבָ֔ה וַתָּ֖רׇם מֵעַ֥ל הָאָֽרֶץ׃
وَدَامَ الطُّوفَانُ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْماً عَلَى الأَرْضِ، وَطَغَتِ الْمِيَاهُ وَرَفَعَتِ الْفُلْكَ فَوْقَ الأَرْضِ،
And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bore up the ark, and it was lifted up above the earth.
וַיִּגְבְּר֥וּ הַמַּ֛יִם וַיִּרְבּ֥וּ מְאֹ֖ד עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וַתֵּ֥לֶךְ הַתֵּבָ֖ה עַל־פְּנֵ֥י הַמָּֽיִם׃
وَتَكَاثَرَتِ الْمِيَاهُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ وَطَغَتْ جِدّاً، فَكَانَ الْفُلْكُ يَطْفُو فَوْقَ الْمِيَاهِ.
And the waters prevailed, and increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.
וְהַמַּ֗יִם גָּ֥בְר֛וּ מְאֹ֥ד מְאֹ֖ד עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיְכֻסּ֗וּ כׇּל־הֶֽהָרִים֙ הַגְּבֹהִ֔ים אֲשֶׁר־תַּ֖חַת כׇּל־הַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
وَتَعَاظَمَتِ الْمِيَاهُ جِدّاً فَوْقَ الأَرْضِ حَتَّى أَغْرَقَتْ جَمِيعَ الْجِبَالِ الْعَالِيَةِ الَّتِي تَحْتَ السَّمَاءِ كُلِّهَا.
And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high mountains that were under the whole heaven were covered.
חֲמֵ֨שׁ עֶשְׂרֵ֤ה אַמָּה֙ מִלְמַ֔עְלָה גָּבְר֖וּ הַמָּ֑יִם וַיְכֻסּ֖וּ הֶהָרִֽים׃
وَبَلَغَ ارْتِفَاعُهَا خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ سَبْعَةِ أَمْتَارٍ) عَنْ أَعْلَى الْجِبَالِ،
Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.
וַיִּגְוַ֞ע כׇּל־בָּשָׂ֣ר ׀ הָרֹמֵ֣שׂ עַל־הָאָ֗רֶץ בָּע֤וֹף וּבַבְּהֵמָה֙ וּבַ֣חַיָּ֔ה וּבְכׇל־הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵ֣ץ עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וְכֹ֖ל הָאָדָֽם׃
فَمَاتَ كُلُّ كَائِنٍ حَيٍّ يَتَحَرَّكُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ مِنْ طُيُورٍ وَبَهَائِمَ وَوُحُوشٍ وَزَوَاحِفَ وَكُلِّ بَشَرٍ
And all flesh perished that moved upon the earth, both fowl, and cattle, and beast, and every swarming thing that swarmeth upon the earth, and every man;
כֹּ֡ל אֲשֶׁר֩ נִשְׁמַת־ר֨וּחַ חַיִּ֜ים בְּאַפָּ֗יו מִכֹּ֛ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר בֶּחָֽרָבָ֖ה מֵֽתוּ׃
مَاتَ كُلُّ مَا يَحْيَا وَيَتَنَفَّسُ عَلَى الْيَابِسَةِ.
all in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, whatsoever was in the dry land, died.
וַיִּ֜מַח אֶֽת־כׇּל־הַיְק֣וּם ׀ אֲשֶׁ֣ר ׀ עַל־פְּנֵ֣י הָֽאֲדָמָ֗ה מֵאָדָ֤ם עַד־בְּהֵמָה֙ עַד־רֶ֙מֶשׂ֙ וְעַד־ע֣וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֔יִם וַיִּמָּח֖וּ מִן־הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיִּשָּׁ֧אֶר אַךְ־נֹ֛חַ וַֽאֲשֶׁ֥ר אִתּ֖וֹ בַּתֵּבָֽה׃
وَبَادَ مِنْ عَلَى سَطْحِ الأَرْضِ كُلُّ كَائِنٍ حَيٍّ سَوَاءٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ أَمِ الْبَهَائِمِ أَمِ الزَّوَاحِفِ أَمِ الطُّيُورِ، كُلُّهَا أُبِيدَتْ مِنَ الأَرْضِ، وَلَمْ يَبْقَ سِوَى نُوحٍ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ فِي الْفُلْكِ.
And He blotted out every living substance which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and creeping thing, and fowl of the heaven; and they were blotted out from the earth; and Noah only was left, and they that were with him in the ark.
וַיִּגְבְּר֥וּ הַמַּ֖יִם עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ חֲמִשִּׁ֥ים וּמְאַ֖ת יֽוֹם׃
وَظَلَّتِ الْمِيَاهُ طَامِيَةً عَلَى الأَرْضِ مُدَّةَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ يَوْماً.
And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.
