1 И сказал Господь Ною: войди ты и все семейство твое в ковчег, иботебя увидел Я праведным предо Мною в роде сем;

2 и всякого скота чистого возьми по семи, мужеского пола и женского,а из скота нечистого по два, мужеского пола и женского;

3 также и из птиц небесных по семи, мужеского пола и женского, чтобы сохранить племя для всей земли,

4 ибо чрез семь дней Я буду изливать дождь на землю сорок дней и сорок ночей; и истреблю все существующее, что Я создал, с лица земли.

5 Ной сделал все, что Господь повелел ему.

6 Ной же был шестисот лет, как потоп водный пришел на землю.

7 И вошел Ной и сыновья его, и жена его, и жены сынов его с ним в ковчег от вод потопа.

8 И из скотов чистых и из скотов нечистых, и из всех пресмыкающихся по земле

9 по паре, мужеского пола и женского, вошли к Ною в ковчег, как Бог повелел Ною.

10 Чрез семь дней воды потопа пришли на землю.

11 В шестисотый год жизни Ноевой, во второй месяц, в семнадцатый день месяца, в сей день разверзлись все источники великой бездны, и окна небесные отворились;

12 и лился на землю дождь сорок дней и сорок ночей.

13 В сей самый день вошел в ковчег Ной, и Сим, Хам и Иафет, сыновья Ноевы, и жена Ноева, и три жены сынов его с ними.

14 Они, и все звери по роду их, и всякий скот по роду его, и все гады, пресмыкающиеся по земле, по роду их, и все летающие по роду их, все птицы, все крылатые,

15 и вошли к Ною в ковчег по паре от всякой плоти, в которой есть дух жизни;

16 и вошедшие мужеский и женский пол всякой плоти вошли, как повелел ему Бог. И затворил Господь за ним.

17 И продолжалось на земле наводнение сорок дней, и умножилась вода, и подняла ковчег, и он возвысился над землею;

18 вода же усиливалась и весьма умножалась на земле, и ковчег плавал по поверхности вод.

19 И усилилась вода на земле чрезвычайно, так что покрылись все высокие горы, какие есть под всем небом;

20 на пятнадцать локтей поднялась над ними вода, и покрылись горы.

21 И лишилась жизни всякая плоть, движущаяся по земле, и птицы, и скоты, и звери, и все гады, ползающие по земле, и все люди;

22 все, что имело дыхание духа жизни в ноздрях своих на суше, умерло.

23 Истребилось всякое существо, которое было на поверхности земли; от человека до скота, и гадов, и птиц небесных, – все истребилось с земли, остался только Ной и что было с ним в ковчеге.

24 Вода же усиливалась на земле сто пятьдесят дней.

565. That by “man” is here signified the race of mankind existing at that time, and indeed a race which was evil or corrupt, appears from the following passages: “My spirit shall not reprove man forever, for that he is flesh” (verse 3). “The evil of man was multiplied on the earth, and the imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil” (verse 5). “I will destroy man whom I have created” (verse 7); and in the following chapter (Genesis 7:21-22), “All flesh died that crept upon the earth, and every man, in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of lives.” Of man it has already been said that the Lord alone is Man, and that from Him every celestial man, or celestial church, is called “man.”

Hence all of other churches are called men; and so is everyone, no matter of what faith, to distinguish him from the brutes. But still a man is not a man, and distinct from the brutes, except by virtue of remains, which are of the Lord. From these also a man is called man, and inasmuch as he is so called by reason of remains, which belong to the Lord, it is from Him that he has the name of man be he ever so wicked, for a man is by no means man, but the vilest of brutes, unless he has remains.

Genesis 6

Studija

   

1 It happened, when men began to multiply on the surface of the ground, and daughters were born to them,

2 that God's sons saw that men's daughters were beautiful, and they took for themselves wives of all that they chose.

3 Yahweh said, "My Spirit will not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh; yet will his days be one hundred twenty years."

4 The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when God's sons came in to men's daughters. They bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

5 Yahweh 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.

6 Yahweh was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart.

7 Yahweh said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the surface of the ground; man, along with animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky; for I am sorry that I have made them."

8 But Noah found favor in Yahweh's eyes.

9 This is the history of the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time. Noah walked with God.

10 Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

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

12 God saw the earth, and saw that it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.

13 God said to Noah, "The end of all flesh has come before me, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

14 Make a ship of gopher wood. You shall make rooms in the ship, and shall seal it inside and outside with pitch.

15 This is how you shall make it. The length of the ship will be three hundred cubits, its breadth fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.

16 You shall make a roof in the ship, and you shall finish it to a cubit upward. You shall set the door of the ship in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third levels.

17 I, even I, do bring the flood of waters on this earth, to destroy all flesh having the breath of life from under the sky. Everything that is in the earth will die.

18 But I will establish my covenant with you. You shall come into the ship, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you.

19 Of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ship, to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.

20 Of the birds after their kind, of the livestock after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort shall come to you, to keep them alive.

21 Take with you of all food that is eaten, and gather it to yourself; and it will be for food for you, and for them."

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