Suencuek 6
1 Te vaengkah hlang loh diklai hman ah pungtai pahoi tih amamih ham canu a cun uh hatah,
It came about when mankind began to multiply on the earth and daughters were born to them,
2 Pathen capa rhoek loh hlang canu rhoek te then tila a hmuh uh. Te dongah amih te amamih yuu la boeih a coelh tih a loh uh.
that the sons of God saw that the daughters of mankind were attractive. They took for themselves wives, any of them that 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.
Yahweh said, “My spirit will not remain in mankind forever, for they are flesh. They will live 120 years.”
4 Te vaeng tue ah Nephilim rhoek tah diklai ah om uh. A hnukah khaw Pathen capa rhoek te hlang canu rhoek taengah kun uh tih amih ham ca a cun pauh. Amih te khosuen kah hlangrhalh la ming aka om hlang rhoek ni.
Giants were on the earth in those days, and also afterward. This happened when the sons of God married daughters of men, and they had children with them. These were the mighty men of old, men of renown.
5 BOEIPA loh diklai hmanah hlang kah boethae he yet tih a lungbuei kopoek neh benbonah loh boeih khaw hnin takuem a thae bueng ni tila a hmuh.
Yahweh saw that the wickedness of mankind was great in the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of their hearts was only evil continually.
6 Te dongah BOEIPA loh diklai hmankah hlang a saii te hal coeng tih a lungbuei te tlo.
Yahweh regretted that he had made mankind on the earth, and it grieved him to 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.
So Yahweh said, “I will wipe away mankind whom I have created from the surface of the earth; both mankind and the larger animals, and creeping things and birds of the heavens, 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 eyes of Yahweh.
9 Hekah he tah Noah kah rhuirhong ni. Noah he amah kah thawnpuei khuiah hlang duengneh a cuemthuek la om. Pathen nen khaw Noah tah pongpa hmaih.
These were the events concerning Noah. Noah was a righteous man, and blameless among the people of his time. Noah walked with God.
10 Noah loh capa pathum Shem, Ham neh Japheth te a sak.
Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Te vaengah diklai te Pathen mikhmuh ah poci tih diklai te kuthlahnah loh a khulae.
The earth was corrupt before God, and it was filled with violence.
12 Te dongah Pathen loh a sawt vaengah diklai hmanah pumsa boeih tah a longpuei te poci tih diklai khaw poci coeng ne.
God saw the earth; behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth.
13 Te dongah Pathen loh Noah taengah, “Pumsa boeih kah a bawtnah tah ka mikhmuh ah pai coeng. Amih mikhmuh lamkah kuthlahnah te diklai hah. Te dongah ni diklai neh amih te ka phae ne.
God said to Noah, “I can see that it is time to put an end to all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Indeed, I will destroy them with the earth.
14 Namah ham gopher thing neh lawng te saii lamtah lawng te a bu saii pah. Te phoeiah a khui ah khaw, poeng ah khaw aang neh hnil.
Make for yourself an ark of cypress wood. Make rooms in the ark, and cover it with pitch within and without.
15 Tekah lawng te metlam na saii eh tikoinih, lawng kah a yun te dong ya thum, a daang dong sawmnga, a sang dong thukip lo ni.
This is how you will make it: The length of the ark is to be three hundred cubits; the breadth of it is to be fifty cubits, and the height of it is to be thirty cubits.
16 Lawng te imphu na 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.
Make a roof for the ark, and finish it at a cubit from the top of the side. Place a door in the side of the ark and make a lower, a second, and a third deck.
17 Kai khaw kamah loh pumsa boeih te phae hamla diklai ah tuilii tui kang khuen coeng ne. A khuiah vaan hmui lamkah hingnah mueihla khaw, diklai dongkah a cungkuem he pal ni.
Listen, I am about to bring the flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh that has in it the breath of life from under heaven. Everything that is on the earth will die.
18 Tedae nang taengah kai kah paipi te ka thoh vetih nang khaw, na ca rhoek khaw, na yuu khaw, na langa rhoek khaw, namah neh lawng khuila na khuen ni.
But I will establish my covenant with you. You will come into the ark, you, and your sons, and your wife, and your sons' wives with you.
19 Te vaengah mulhing boeih lamkah khaw, pumsa boeih lamkah khaw a hluei neh a la te panit ah khueh lamtah namah taengah hing sak ham lawng te boeih paan puei.
Of every living creature of all flesh, two of every kind you must bring into the ark, to keep them alive with you, both 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 birds after their kind, and of the larger animals after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort will come to you, to keep them alive.
21 Te phoeiah na caak ham buh boeih te namah taengah khuen lamtah namah ham tung. Namah ham neh amih ham cakok la om saeh,” a ti nah.
Gather for yourself every kind of food that is eaten and store it, so that it will be food for you and for them.”
22 Te dongah Noah loh a saii tih Pathen loh anih a uen boeih te a saii van.
So Noah did this. According to all that God commanded him, so he did.
The World is Destroyed by Water
