Genesis 8

Studie

   

1 Da ihukom Gud Noa og alle de vilde Dyr og Kvæget, som var hos ham i Arken; og Gud lod en Storm fare hen over Jorden, så at Vandet begyndte at falde;

2 Verdensdybets Kilder og Himmelens Sluser lukkedes, egnen fra Himmelen standsede,

3 og Vandet veg lidt efter lidt bort fra Jorden, og Vandet tog af efter de 150 Dages Forløb.

4 På den syttende Dag i den syvende Måned sad Arken fast på Ararats Bjerge,

5 og Vandet vedblev at synke indtil den tiende Måned, og på den første Dag i denne Måned dukkede Bjergenes Toppe frem.

6 Da der var gået fyrretyve Dage: åbnede Noa den Luge, han havde lavet på Arken,

7 og sendte en avn ud; den fløj frem og tilbage, indtil Vandet var tørret bort fra Jorden.

8 Da sendte han en Due ud for at se, om Vandet var sunket fra Jordens Overflade;

9 men Duen fandt intet Sted at sætte sin Fod og vendte tilbage til ham i Arken, fordi der endnu var Vand over hele Jorden; og han rakte Hånden ud og tog den ind i Arken til sig.

10 Derpå biede han yderligere syv Dage og sendte så atter Duen ud fra Arken;

11 ved Aftenstid kom Duen tilbage til ham, og se, den havde et friskt Olieblad i Næbbet. Da skønnede Noa, at Vandet var svundet bort fra Jorden.

12 Derpå biede han syv Dage til, og da han så sendte Duen ud, kom den ikke mere tilbage til ham.

13 I Noas 601ste Leveår på den første Dag i den første Måned var Vandet tørret bort fra Jorden. Da tog Noa Dækket af Arken, og da han så sig om, se, da var Jordens Overflade tør.

14 På den syv og tyvende Dag i den anden Måned var Jorden tør.

15 Da sagde Gud til Noa:

16 "Gå ud af Arken med din Hustru, dine Sønner og dine Sønnekoner

17 og for alle Dyr, der er hos dig, alt Kød, Fugle, Kvæg og alt Kryb, der kryber på Jorden, ud med dig, at de kan vrimle på Jorden og blive frugtbare og mangfoldige på Jorden!"

18 Da gik Noa ud med sine Sønner, sin Hustru og sine Sønnekoner;

19 og alle de vildtlevende Dyr, alt Kvæget, alle Fuglene og alt Krybet, der kryber på Jorden, efter deres Slægter, gik ud af Arken.

20 Derpå byggede Noa HE EN et Alter og tog nogle af alle de rene Dyr og Fugle og ofrede Brændofre på Alteret.

21 Og da HE EN indåndede den liflige Duft, sagde han til sig selv: "Jeg vil aldrig mere forbande Jorden for Menneskenes Skyld, thi Menneskehjertets Higen er ond fra Ungdommen af, og jeg vil aldrig mere tilintetgøre alt, hvad der lever, således som jeg nu har gjort!

22 Herefter skal, så længe Jorden står, Sæd og Høst, Kulde og Hede, Sommer og Vinter, Dag og Nat ikke ophøre!"

832. GENESIS 8

1. And God remembered Noah, and every wild animal, and every beast that was with him in the ark; and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged.

2. The fountains also of the deep, and the cataracts of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained.

3. And the waters receded from off the earth, going and returning; and after the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters failed.

4. And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.

5. And the waters were going and failing until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains appeared.

6. And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:

7. And he sent forth a raven, and it went forth, going and returning, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.

8. And he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the faces of the ground.

9. And the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him to the ark, for the waters were on the faces of the whole earth; and he put forth his hand and took her, and brought her in unto him into the ark.

10. And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;

11. And the dove came back to him at eventide; and lo in her mouth an olive leaf plucked off; so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.

12. And he stayed yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove, and she returned not again unto him anymore.

13. And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the beginning, on the first of the month, that the waters were dried up from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and saw, and behold, the faces of the ground were dry.

14. In the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dry.

15. And God spake unto Noah, saying,

16. Go forth from the ark, thou and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons’ wives with thee.

17. Every wild animal that is with thee of all flesh, as to fowl, and as to beast, and as to every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, bring forth with thee, that they may spread themselves in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.

18. And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him.

19. Every wild animal, every creeping thing, and every fowl, everything that creepeth upon the earth, according to their families, went forth out of the ark.

20. And Noah builded an altar unto Jehovah; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

21. And Jehovah smelled an odor of rest; and Jehovah said in His heart, I will not again curse the ground anymore on man’s account; because the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite anymore everything living, as I have done.

22. During all the days of the earth, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.

THE CONTENTS

The subject which now follows in due connection is the man of the new church, who is called “Noah;” and in fact the subject is his state after temptation, even to his regeneration, and thereafter.
