1 Mosebok 7
Swedish New Living Bible (Nya Levande Bibeln)
7 Slutligen kom den dag då Herren sa till Noa: Gå in i båten med hela din familj, för bland alla människor på jorden är det bara du som jag anser som rättfärdig.
2 Ta med dig djuren också, ett par av varje art. Men när det gäller de djur som jag har utvalt att använda till mat och offer, ska du ta sju par av varje
3 och sju par av varje slags fågel. På så sätt kommer allt skapat att bevaras och föröka sig på nytt, efter översvämningen.
4 Om en vecka ska jag sända ett regn som kommer att hålla på i fyrtio dagar och fyrtio nätter, och alla djur och fåglar och kräldjur, som jag har skapat, kommer att dö.
5 Noa gjorde därför som Herren hade befallt honom.
6 Han var 600 år när översvämningen kom.
7 Han gick ombord på båten med sin hustru, sina söner och deras hustrur, för att fly undan översvämningen.
8-9 Tillsammans med dem fanns alla djur, både de som kunde ätas och offras, och de som inte var avsedda för detta, och alla fåglar och kräldjur. De kom in i båten parvis, hanar och honor, precis som Gud hade befallt Noa.
10-12 En vecka senare, när Noa var 600 år, två månader och sjutton dagar gammal, började regnet komma i skyfall från himlen. Vatten från underjordiska källor vällde fram ur jorden under fyrtio dygn.
13 Men Noa hade samma dag gått in i båten med sin hustru och sina söner Sem, Ham och Jafet och deras hustrur.
14-15 Tillsammans med dem i båten fanns par av varje djurart, husdjur och vilda djur, dessutom kräldjur och fåglar av varje art.
16 De kom parvis, hane och hona, precis som Gud hade befallt. Sedan stängde Herren Gud dörren efter dem.
17 Under fyrtio dagar brusade vattenmassorna fram. De täckte marken och lyfte båten högt ovanför jorden.
18 Vattnet steg högre och högre, men båten flöt tryggt.
19-20 Slutligen täckte vattnet alla berg och stod flera meter över de högsta topparna.
21 Jordens alla levande varelser drunknade, fåglar, husdjur, vilda djur, kräldjur och hela mänskligheten.
22 Allt som andades och levde på torra land,
23 ja, allt liv på jorden utplånades. Gud förgjorde dem allesammans och lät bara Noa och dem som var med honom i båten leva.
24 Vattnet täckte jorden i 150 dagar.

The Flood Begins
7 Then the Lord said to Noah, “I have seen that you are a good man, even among the evil people of this time. So gather your family, and all of you go into the boat. 2 Get seven pairs (seven males and seven females) of every kind of clean animal. And get one pair (one male and one female) of every other animal on the earth. Lead all these animals into the boat with you. 3 Get seven pairs (seven males and seven females) of all the birds. This will allow all these animals to continue living on the earth after the other animals are destroyed. 4 Seven days from now, I will send much rain on the earth. It will rain for 40 days and 40 nights, and I will wipe everything off the face of the earth. I will destroy everything I made.” 5 Noah did everything the Lord told him to do.
6 Noah was 600 years old at the time the rains came. 7 He and his family went into the boat to be saved from the flood. His wife and his sons and their wives were on the boat with him. 8 All the clean animals, all the other animals on the earth, the birds, and everything that crawls on the earth 9 went into the boat with Noah. These animals went into the boat in groups of two, male and female, just as God commanded. 10 Seven days later the flood started. The rain began to fall on the earth.
11-13 On the 17th day of the second month, when Noah was 600 years old, the springs under the earth broke through the ground, and water flowed out everywhere. The sky also opened like windows and rain poured down. The rain fell on the earth for 40 days and 40 nights. That same day Noah went into the boat with his wife, his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and their wives. 14 They and every kind of animal on the earth were in the boat. Every kind of cattle, every kind of animal that crawls on the earth, and every kind of bird were in the boat. 15 All these animals went into the boat with Noah. They came in groups of two from every kind of animal that had the breath of life. 16 All these animals went into the boat in groups of two, just as God had commanded Noah. Then the Lord closed the door behind Noah.
17 Water flooded the earth for 40 days. The water began rising and lifted the boat off the ground. 18 The water continued to rise, and the boat floated on the water high above the earth. 19 The water rose so much that even the highest mountains were covered by the water. 20 The water continued to rise above the mountains. The water was more than 20 feet[a] above the highest mountain.
21-22 Every living thing on earth died—every man and woman, every bird, and every kind of animal. All the many kinds of animals and all the things that crawl on the ground died. Every living, breathing thing on dry land died. 23 In this way God wiped the earth clean—he destroyed every living thing on the earth—every human, every animal, everything that crawls, and every bird. All that was left was Noah and his family and the animals that were with him in the boat. 24 The water continued to cover the earth for 150 days.

7 The Lord then said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and your whole family,(A) because I have found you righteous(B) in this generation. 2 Take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean(C) animal, a male and its mate, and one pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, 3 and also seven pairs of every kind of bird, male and female, to keep their various kinds alive(D) throughout the earth. 4 Seven days from now I will send rain(E) on the earth(F) for forty days(G) and forty nights,(H) and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living creature I have made.(I)”
5 And Noah did all that the Lord commanded him.(J)
6 Noah was six hundred years old(K) when the floodwaters came on the earth. 7 And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives entered the ark(L) to escape the waters of the flood. 8 Pairs of clean and unclean(M) animals, of birds and of all creatures that move along the ground, 9 male and female, came to Noah and entered the ark, as God had commanded Noah.(N) 10 And after the seven days(O) the floodwaters came on the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life,(P) on the seventeenth day of the second month(Q)—on that day all the springs of the great deep(R) burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens(S) were opened. 12 And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.(T)
13 On that very day Noah and his sons,(U) Shem, Ham and Japheth, together with his wife and the wives of his three sons, entered the ark.(V) 14 They had with them every wild animal according to its kind, all livestock according to their kinds, every creature that moves along the ground according to its kind and every bird according to its kind,(W) everything with wings. 15 Pairs of all creatures that have the breath of life in them came to Noah and entered the ark.(X) 16 The animals going in were male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah.(Y) Then the Lord shut him in.
17 For forty days(Z) the flood kept coming on the earth, and as the waters increased they lifted the ark high above the earth. 18 The waters rose and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water. 19 They rose greatly on the earth, and all the high mountains under the entire heavens were covered.(AA) 20 The waters rose and covered the mountains to a depth of more than fifteen cubits.[a][b] (AB) 21 Every living thing that moved on land perished—birds, livestock, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind.(AC) 22 Everything on dry land that had the breath of life(AD) in its nostrils died. 23 Every living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out; people and animals and the creatures that move along the ground and the birds were wiped from the earth.(AE) Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark.(AF)
24 The waters flooded the earth for a hundred and fifty days.(AG)
