Suencuek 6
1 Te vaengkah hlang loh diklai hman ah pungtai pahoi tih amamih ham canua cun uh hatah,
And it happened, when humankind began to multiply on the face of the land, and daughters were born to them,
2 Pathen capa rhoek loh hlang canurhoek te then tilaa hmuh uh. Te dongah amih te amamih yuu la boeiha coelh tih a loh uh.
that God's sons saw that the daughters of humankind were beautiful, and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose.
3 Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Hlang ngawn tah pumsa la om tih kai kah mueihla loh hlang taengah kumhal ah ka naep eh a ti pawt dongah hlang kah khohnin he kum ya neh kum kul mah om saeh,” a ti.
And God said, "My Spirit will not remain in humankind forever, since he is indeed flesh; yet his days will be one hundred twenty years."
4 Te vaeng tue ah Nephilim rhoek tah diklai ah om uh. A hnukah khaw Pathen capa rhoek te hlang canurhoek taengah kun uh tih amih ham ca a cun pauh. Amihte khosuen kah hlangrhalh la ming aka om hlang rhoek ni.
The Nephilim were on the earth in those days (and also after that), when the sons of God had sexual relations with the daughters of humankind and had children by them. They were the mighty men who were from ancient times, famous men.
5 BOEIPA loh diklai hmanah hlang kah boethae he yet tih a lungbuei kopoek neh benbonah loh boeih khaw hnin takuema thae bueng ni tilaa hmuh.
And God saw that the wickedness of humankind was great on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
6 Te dongah BOEIPA loh diklai hmankah hlanga saii te hal coeng tih a lungbuei te tlo.
God was sorry that he had made humankind on the earth, and he was grieved in his heart.
7 Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Ka suen hlang te diklai hman lamkah ka khoe pawn ni. Hlang khaw, rhamsa khaw, rhulcai khaw, vaan kah vaa khaw amih ka saii dongah te ka hal coeng,” a ti.
God said, "I will destroy humankind whom I have created from the face of the earth; humankind, along with animals, crawling creatures, and flying creatures of the sky; for I am sorry that I have made them."
8 Tedae Noah tah BOEIPA mik ah mikdaithen la om.
But Noah found favor in the sight of God.
9 Hekah he tah Noah kah rhuirhong ni. Noah he amah kah thawnpuei khuiah hlang duengneha cuemthuek la om. Pathen nen khaw Noah tah pongpa hmaih.
These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time. Noah walked with God.
10 Noah loh capa pathum Shem, Ham neh Japheth tea sak.
Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Te vaengah diklai te Pathen mikhmuh ah poci tih diklai te kuthlahnahloh a khulae.
The earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12 Te dongah Pathenloh a sawt vaengah diklai hmanah pumsa boeih tah a longpuei te poci tih diklai khaw poci coeng ne.
God saw the earth, and look, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.
13 Te dongah Pathen loh Noah taengah, “Pumsa boeih kah a bawtnah tah ka mikhmuh ah pai coeng. Amih mikhmuh lamkah kuthlahnahte diklai hah. Te dongah ni diklai neh amihte ka phae ne.
And God said to Noah, "The end of all flesh has come before me, for the earth is filled with violence through them. And look, I will destroy them with the earth.
14 Namah ham gopher thing neh lawngte saii lamtah lawng tea bu saii pah. Te phoeiah a khui ah khaw, poeng ah khaw aang neh hnil.
Make a box-shaped ship of gopher wood. You are to make rooms in the ship, and cover it inside and outside with pitch.
15 Tekah lawng te metlamna saii eh tikoinih, lawng kah a yun te dong ya thum, a daang dong sawmnga, a sang dong thukip lo ni.
And this is how you are to make it. The length of the ship is to be five hundred seventeen feet, its breadth eighty-six feet, and its height fifty-two feet.
16 Lawng te imphuna saii vetih tlungyun te tah dong khat cup sak. Te phoeiah lawng kah a kaep ah thohka khueh lamtah a cuek, pabae neh pathum la saii.
And you are to make a roof in the ship, and you are to finish it twenty-one inches above. And you are to set the door of the ship in its side. You are to make it with lower, second, and third levels.
17 Kai khaw kamah loh pumsa boeihte phae hamla diklai ah tuilii tui kang khuen coeng ne. A khuiah vaan hmui lamkah hingnah mueihla khaw, diklai dongkaha cungkuem he pal ni.
And as for me, look, I am bringing a flood of waters on the earth, to destroy all flesh having the breath of life from under the sky. Everything that is on the earth will die.
18 Tedae nang taengah kai kah paipi te ka thoh vetih nang khaw, na carhoek khaw, na yuu khaw, na langa rhoek khaw, namah neh lawng khuilana khuen ni.
But I will establish my covenant with you. You are to come into the ship, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you.
19 Te vaengah mulhing boeih lamkah khaw, pumsa boeih lamkah khaw a hluei neha la te panitah khueh lamtah namah taengah hing sak ham lawng te boeih paan puei.
Of every living thing of all flesh, you are to bring two of every sort into the ship, to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.
20 Vaa te khaw amah hui la, rhamsa lamkah khaw amah hui la, diklai ah rhulcai boeih lamkah amah hui la, boeih khuikah panit tah hlun ham nang taengah ham paan saeh.
Of the flying creatures after their kind, of the animals after their kind, and of every crawling creature of the ground after their kind, two of every sort shall come to you, to keep them alive.
21 Te phoeiah na caak ham buh boeihte namah taengah khuen lamtah namah ham tung. Namah ham neh amih ham cakok la om saeh,” a ti nah.
And as for you, take for yourself all the kinds of food that are eaten, and gather it to yourself; and it will be food for you, and for them."
22 Te dongah Noahloh a saiitih Pathen loh aniha uen boeih tea saii van.
Thus Noah did. According to all that God commanded him, so he did.
