Denn von nun an über sieben Tage will ich regnen lassen auf Erden vierzig Tage und vierzig Nächte und vertilgen von dem Erdboden alles, was Wesen hat, was ich gemacht habe.
Porque pasados aún siete días, yo haré llover sobre la tierra cuarenta días y cuarenta noches; y raeré toda sustancia que hice de sobre la faz de la tierra.
Car, encore sept jours, et je ferai pleuvoir sur la terre quarante jours et quarante nuits, et j'exterminerai de la face de la terre tous les êtres que j'ai faits.
Perciocchè fra qui e sette dì, io farò piovere in su la terra per lo spazio di quaranta giorni e di quaranta notti, e sterminerò d’in su la terra ogni cosa sussistente che io ho fatta
Porque, passados ainda sete dias, farei chover sobre a terra quarenta dias e quarenta noites; e desfarei de sobre a face da terra toda a substância que fiz.
因為再過七天,我要降雨在地上四十晝夜,把我所造的一切生物從地面上除滅。」
