Genèse 6:5-22
Louis Segond
5 L'Éternel vit que la méchanceté des hommes était grande sur la terre, et que toutes les pensées de leur coeur se portaient chaque jour uniquement vers le mal.
6 L'Éternel se repentit d'avoir fait l'homme sur la terre, et il fut affligé en son coeur.
7 Et l'Éternel dit: J'exterminerai de la face de la terre l'homme que j'ai créé, depuis l'homme jusqu'au bétail, aux reptiles, et aux oiseaux du ciel; car je me repens de les avoir faits.
8 Mais Noé trouva grâce aux yeux de l'Éternel.
9 Voici la postérité de Noé. Noé était un homme juste et intègre dans son temps; Noé marchait avec Dieu.
10 Noé engendra trois fils: Sem, Cham et Japhet.
11 La terre était corrompue devant Dieu, la terre était pleine de violence.
12 Dieu regarda la terre, et voici, elle était corrompue; car toute chair avait corrompu sa voie sur la terre.
13 Alors Dieu dit à Noé: La fin de toute chair est arrêtée par devers moi; car ils ont rempli la terre de violence; voici, je vais les détruire avec la terre.
14 Fais-toi une arche de bois de gopher; tu disposeras cette arche en cellules, et tu l'enduiras de poix en dedans et en dehors.
15 Voici comment tu la feras: l'arche aura trois cents coudées de longueur, cinquante coudées de largeur et trente coudées de hauteur.
16 Tu feras à l'arche une fenêtre, que tu réduiras à une coudée en haut; tu établiras une porte sur le côté de l'arche; et tu construiras un étage inférieur, un second et un troisième.
17 Et moi, je vais faire venir le déluge d'eaux sur la terre, pour détruire toute chair ayant souffle de vie sous le ciel; tout ce qui est sur la terre périra.
18 Mais j'établis mon alliance avec toi; tu entreras dans l'arche, toi et tes fils, ta femme et les femmes de tes fils avec toi.
19 De tout ce qui vit, de toute chair, tu feras entrer dans l'arche deux de chaque espèce, pour les conserver en vie avec toi: il y aura un mâle et une femelle.
20 Des oiseaux selon leur espèce, du bétail selon son espèce, et de tous les reptiles de la terre selon leur espèce, deux de chaque espèce viendront vers toi, pour que tu leur conserves la vie.
21 Et toi, prends de tous les aliments que l'on mange, et fais-en une provision auprès de toi, afin qu'ils te servent de nourriture ainsi qu'à eux.
22 C'est ce que fit Noé: il exécuta tout ce que Dieu lui avait ordonné.

2. IL DILUVIO
La corruzione dell'umanità
5 Il Signore vide che la malvagità degli uomini era grande sulla terra e che ogni disegno concepito dal loro cuore non era altro che male. 6 E il Signore si pentì di aver fatto l'uomo sulla terra e se ne addolorò in cuor suo. 7 Il Singore disse: «Sterminerò dalla terra l'uomo che ho creato: con l'uomo anche il bestiame e i rettili e gli uccelli del cielo, perché sono pentito d'averli fatti». 8 Ma Noè trovò grazia agli occhi del Signore.
9 Questa è la storia di Noè. Noè era uomo giusto e integro tra i suoi contemporanei e camminava con Dio. 10 Noè generò tre figli: Sem, Cam, e Iafet. 11 Ma la terra era corrotta davanti a Dio e piena di violenza.
12 Dio guardò la terra ed ecco essa era corrotta, perché ogni uomo aveva pervertito la sua condotta sulla terra.
Preparativi del diluvio
13 Allora Dio disse a Noè: «E' venuta per me la fine di ogni uomo, perché la terra, per causa loro, è piena di violenza; ecco, io li distruggerò insieme con la terra. 14 Fatti un'arca di legno di cipresso; dividerai l'arca in scompartimenti e la spalmerai di bitume dentro e fuori. 15 Ecco come devi farla: l'arca avrà trecento cubiti di lunghezza, cinquanta di larghezza e trenta di altezza. 16 Farai nell'arca un tetto e a un cubito più sopra la terminerai; da un lato metterai la porta dell'arca. La farai a piani: inferiore, medio e superiore.
17 Ecco io manderò il diluvio, cioè le acque, sulla terra, per distruggere sotto il cielo ogni carne, in cui è alito di vita; quanto è sulla terra perirà. 18 Ma con te io stabilisco la mia alleanza. Entrerai nell'arca tu e con te i tuoi figli, tua moglie e le mogli dei tuoi figli. 19 Di quanto vive, di ogni carne, introdurrai nell'arca due di ogni specie, per conservarli in vita con te: siano maschio e femmina. 20 Degli uccelli secondo la loro specie, del bestiame secondo la propria specie e di tutti i rettili della terra secondo la loro specie, due d'ognuna verranno con te, per essere conservati in vita. 21 Quanto a te, prenditi ogni sorta di cibo da mangiare e raccoglilo presso di te: sarà di nutrimento per te e per loro». 22 Noè eseguì tutto; come Dio gli aveva comandato, così egli fece.

Genesis 6:5-22
New International Version
5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth,(A) and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time.(B) 6 The Lord regretted(C) that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth(D) the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.(E)” 8 But Noah(F) found favor in the eyes of the Lord.(G)
Noah and the Flood
9 This is the account(H) of Noah and his family.
Noah was a righteous man, blameless(I) among the people of his time,(J) and he walked faithfully with God.(K) 10 Noah had three sons: Shem,(L) Ham and Japheth.(M)
11 Now the earth was corrupt(N) in God’s sight and was full of violence.(O) 12 God saw how corrupt(P) the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.(Q) 13 So God said to Noah, “I am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I am surely going to destroy(R) both them and the earth.(S) 14 So make yourself an ark of cypress[a] wood;(T) make rooms in it and coat it with pitch(U) inside and out. 15 This is how you are to build it: The ark is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high.[b] 16 Make a roof for it, leaving below the roof an opening one cubit[c] high all around.[d] Put a door in the side of the ark and make lower, middle and upper decks. 17 I am going to bring floodwaters(V) on the earth to destroy all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish.(W) 18 But I will establish my covenant with you,(X) and you will enter the ark(Y)—you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you. 19 You are to bring into the ark two of all living creatures, male and female, to keep them alive with you.(Z) 20 Two(AA) of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal and of every kind(AB) of creature that moves along the ground will come to you to be kept alive.(AC) 21 You are to take every kind of food that is to be eaten and store it away as food for you and for them.”
22 Noah did everything just as God commanded him.(AD)

Genesis 6:5-22
King James Version
5 And God 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 And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.
9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.
17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.
18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.
20 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.
21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.
22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
