Genesis 6

Studie

   

1 At nangyari, nang magpasimula na dumami ang mga tao sa balat ng lupa, at mangagkaanak ng mga babae,

2 Na nakita ng mga anak ng Dios, na magaganda ang mga anak na babae ng mga tao; at sila'y nangagsikuha ng kanikaniyang asawa sa lahat ng kanilang pinili.

3 At sinabi ng Panginoon, Ang aking Espiritu ay hindi makikipagpunyagi sa tao magpakailan man, sapagka't siya ma'y laman: gayon ma'y magiging isang daan at dalawang pung taon ang kaniyang mga araw.

4 Ang mga higante ay nasa lupa ng mga araw na yaon, at pagkatapos din naman na makasiping ang mga anak ng Dios sa mga anak na babae ng tao, at mangagkaanak sila sa kanila: ang mga ito rin ang naging makapangyarihan nang unang panahon na mga lalaking bantog.

5 At nakita ng Panginoon na mabigat ang kasamaan ng tao sa lupa, at ang buong haka ng mga pagiisip ng kaniyang puso ay pawang masama lamang na parati.

6 At nagsisi ang Panginoon na kaniyang nilalang ang tao sa lupa, at nalumbay sa kaniyang puso.

7 At sinabi ng Panginoon, Lilipulin ko ang tao na aking nilalang sa ibabaw ng lupa; ang tao at gayon din ang hayop, at ang mga umuusad at ang mga ibon sa himpapawid; sapagka't pinagsisisihan ko na aking nilalang sila.

8 Datapuwa't si Noe ay nakasumpong ng biyaya sa mga mata ng Panginoon.

9 Ito ang mga lahi ni Noe. Si Noe ay lalaking matuwid at sakdal noong kapanahunan niya: si Noe ay lumalakad na kasama ng Dios.

10 At nagkaanak si Noe ng tatlong lalake: si Sem, si Cham, at si Japhet.

11 At sumama ang lupa sa harap ng Dios, at ang lupa ay napuno ng karahasan.

12 At tiningnan ng Dios ang lupa, at, narito sumama; sapagka't pinasama ng lahat ng tao ang kanilang paglakad sa ibabaw ng lupa.

13 At sinabi ng Dios kay Noe, Ang wakas ng lahat ng tao ay dumating sa harap ko; sapagka't ang lupa ay napuno ng karahasan dahil sa kanila; at, narito, sila'y aking lilipuling kalakip ng lupa.

14 Gumawa ka ng isang sasakyang kahoy na gofer; gagawa ka ng mga silid sa sasakyan, at iyong sisiksikan sa loob at sa labas ng sahing.

15 At ganitong paraan gagawin mo: tatlong daang siko ang haba ng sasakyan, limang pung siko ang luwang, at tatlong pung siko ang taas.

16 Gagawa ka ng isang durungawan sa sasakyan; at wawakasan mo ng isang siko sa dakong itaas; at ang pintuan ng sasakyan ay ilalagay mo sa tagiliran; gagawin mong may lapag na lalong mababa, pangalawa at pangatlo.

17 At ako, narito, ako'y magpapadagsa ng isang baha ng tubig sa ibabaw ng lupa, upang lipulin sa silong ng langit ang lahat ng laman na may hininga ng buhay; ang lahat na nasa lupa ay mangamamatay.

18 Datapuwa't pagtitibayin ko ang aking tipan sa iyo; at ikaw ay lululan sa sasakyan, ikaw, at ang iyong mga anak na lalake, at ang iyong asawa, at ang mga asawa ng iyong mga anak na kasama mo.

19 At sa bawa't nangabubuhay, sa lahat ng laman ay maglululan ka sa loob ng sasakyan ng dalawa sa bawa't uri upang maingatan silang buhay, na kasama mo; lalake at babae ang kinakailangan.

20 Sa mga ibon ayon sa kanikanilang uri, at sa mga hayop ayon sa kanikanilang uri, sa bawa't nagsisiusad, ayon sa kanikanilang uri, dalawa sa bawa't uri, ay isasama mo sa iyo, upang maingatan silang buhay.

21 At magbaon ka ng lahat na pagkain na kinakain, at imbakin mo sa iyo; at magiging pagkain mo at nila.

22 Gayon ginawa ni Noe; ayon sa lahat na iniutos sa kaniya ng Dios, ay gayon ang ginawa niya.

Fowl

  

Fowl signify spiritual truth; a bird, natural truth; and a winged thing, sensual truth. Fowl of heaven, as in Hosea 2:18, signify the affections of truth; and reptiles of the earth, the affection of the knowledges of truth and good. Fowl signify thoughts, and all that creeps on the ground, the sensual principle. Fowl signify intellectual things.

Hosea 2

Studie

   

1 "Say to your brothers, 'My people!' and to your sisters, 'My loved one!'

2 Contend with your mother! Contend, for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her prostitution from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts;

3 Lest I strip her naked, and make her bare as in the day that she was born, and make her like a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and kill her with thirst.

4 Indeed, on her children I will have no mercy; for they are children of unfaithfulness;

5 For their mother has played the prostitute. She who conceived them has done shamefully; for she said, 'I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.'

6 Therefore, behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she can't find her way.

7 She will follow after her lovers, but she won't overtake them; and she will seek them, but won't find them. Then she will say, 'I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.'

8 For she did not know that I gave her the grain, the new wine, and the oil, and multiplied to her silver and gold, which they used for Baal.

9 Therefore I will take back my grain in its time, and my new wine in its season, and will pluck away my wool and my flax which should have covered her nakedness.

10 Now I will uncover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and no one will deliver her out of my hand.

11 I will also cause all her celebrations to cease: her feasts, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.

12 I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees, about which she has said, 'These are my wages that my lovers have given me; and I will make them a forest,' and the animals of the field shall eat them.

13 I will visit on her the days of the Baals, to which she burned incense, when she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me," says Yahweh.

14 "Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her.

15 I will give her vineyards from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will respond there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

16 It will be in that day," says Yahweh, "that you will call me 'my husband,' and no longer call me 'my master.'

17 For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and they will no longer be mentioned by name.

18 In that day I will make a covenant for them with the animals of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the creeping things of the ground. I will break the bow, the sword, and the battle out of the land, and will make them lie down safely.

19 I will betroth you to me forever. Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion.

20 I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness; and you shall know Yahweh.

21 It will happen in that day, I will respond," says Yahweh, "I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth;

22 and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will respond to Jezreel.

23 I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; and I will tell those who were not my people, 'You are my people;' and they will say, 'My God!'"
