Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

8:1

καὶ ἐμνήσθη ὁ θεὸς τοῦ Νωε καὶ πάντων τῶν θηρίων καὶ πάντων τῶν κτηνῶν καὶ πάντων τῶν πετεινῶν καὶ πάντων τῶν ἑρπετῶν ὅσα ἦν μετ’ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ κιβωτῷ καὶ ἐπήγαγεν ὁ θεὸς πνεῦμα ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ ἐκόπασεν τὸ ὕδωρ

And God remembered Noe, and all the wild beasts and all the cattle and all the birds and all the creeping things that were with him in the ark; and God brought a wind upon the earth, and the water abated.

神記念挪亞，和那些與他同在方舟裡的一切走獸、一切牲畜、一切飛鳥、一切爬物；神使風吹過地上，水就消退了。

8:2

καὶ ἐπεκαλύφθησαν αἱ πηγαὶ τῆς ἀβύσσου καὶ οἱ καταρράκται τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ συνεσχέθη ὁ ὑετὸς ἀπὸ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ

And the fountains of the abyss were covered over, and the cataracts of heaven, and the rain from heaven was restrained.

大淵的泉源和天上的閘門都被遮蓋了，從天而下的雨也止住了。

8:3

καὶ ἐνεδίδου τὸ ὕδωρ πορευόμενον ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἐνεδίδου καὶ ἠλαττονοῦτο τὸ ὕδωρ μετὰ πεντήκοντα καὶ ἑκατὸν ἡμέρας

And the water receded, going back from the earth; it receded, and the water was diminished after a hundred and fifty days.

水從地上不斷退去，不斷地退；過了一百五十天，水就減少了。

8:4

καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἡ κιβωτὸς ἐν μηνὶ τῷ ἑβδόμῳ ἑβδόμῃ καὶ εἰκάδι τοῦ μηνός ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη τὰ Αραρατ

And the ark settled in the seventh month, on the twenty-seventh of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.

七月二十七日，方舟停在亞拉臘眾山上。

8:5

τὸ δὲ ὕδωρ πορευόμενον ἠλαττονοῦτο ἕως τοῦ δεκάτου μηνός ἐν δὲ τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ μηνί τῇ πρώτῃ τοῦ μηνός ὤφθησαν αἱ κεφαλαὶ τῶν ὀρέων

And the water going back was diminished until the tenth month; and in the eleventh month, on the first of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

水繼續退去，直減少到十月；十一月初一日，眾山的頂都顯露出來。

8:6

καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τεσσαράκοντα ἡμέρας ἠνέῳξεν Νωε τὴν θυρίδα τῆς κιβωτοῦ ἣν ἐποίησεν

And it came to pass after forty days that Noe opened the window of the ark which he had made,

過了四十天，挪亞開了他所造方舟的窗戶，

8:7

καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τὸν κόρακα τοῦ ἰδεῖν εἰ κεκόπακεν τὸ ὕδωρ καὶ ἐξελθὼν οὐχ ὑπέστρεψεν ἕως τοῦ ξηρανθῆναι τὸ ὕδωρ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς

and he sent forth the raven to see whether the water had abated; and it went out and did not return until the water was dried from the earth.

放出一隻烏鴉去，要看水退了沒有；烏鴉飛出去，直到水從地上乾了，也沒有回來。

8:8

καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τὴν περιστερὰν ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ ἰδεῖν εἰ κεκόπακεν τὸ ὕδωρ ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς γῆς

And he sent forth the dove after it, to see whether the water had abated from the face of the earth.

他又放出一隻鴿子，跟在牠後面，要看水從地面上退了沒有。

8:9

καὶ οὐχ εὑροῦσα ἡ περιστερὰ ἀνάπαυσιν τοῖς ποσὶν αὐτῆς ὑπέστρεψεν πρὸς αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν κιβωτόν ὅτι ὕδωρ ἦν ἐπὶ παντὶ προσώπῳ πάσης τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐκτείνας τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἔλαβεν αὐτὴν καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτὴν πρὸς ἑαυτὸν εἰς τὴν κιβωτόν

And the dove, not finding rest for its feet, returned to him into the ark, because the water was upon all the face of all the earth; and he stretched out his hand and took it, and brought it in to himself into the ark.

但鴿子找不著落腳之處，就回到方舟他那裡，因為水還在全地的整個地面上；他便伸出手來，把鴿子拿住，帶進方舟到自己那裡。
