Semtilbu 6
1 Hiche achun leiset chunga mihem ahung pung pan tan ahile alah uva chanu jong tampi ahing tauve.
People started to increase in number and spread out across the earth. Daughters were born to them,
2 Chuin Pathen chapate chun numei hoitah ho chu amu uvin ama hon adei thei lheh jeng uvin, hijeh chun adei dei akilhen uvin ajinu ding in akipui tauvin ahi.
and the sons of God saw that these women were beautiful, and they took whichever ones they wanted.
3 Hichun Pathen in aseiye, “Ka lhagao mihem sunga atonsot kumkho in chengden thei deh ponte, ajeh chu ama tahsaphe bou ahin, ahin nikho jong kum jakhat le kum somni bou hiding ahiye,” ati.
Then the Lord said, “My life-giving Spirit will not remain in these people forever, because they are only mortal. The time they have left will be 120 years.”
4 Hiche lai chun leiset chunga Nephilim miho ana um uvin, chujong le Pathen chapate mihem Chanute henga ahunglut nung'u chun amahon jong cha ahin peh tauve; hiche ho chu khanglui laiya mihat te ana hiuvin, chule mi minthang ho chu ana hiuvin ahi.
There were giants on earth in those days, and also later on. They were born after the sons of God slept with the daughters of these people. Their sons became the great warriors and famous men of ancient times.
5 Pathen in leiset chunga mihem ho setna chu akhol chen jing in, chule Pathen in mihem ho thil phalou agel'u ahi loule lungthima ase abolnom ho'u chu aboncha aphalou jeng ahi chu amu doh tai.
The Lord saw how terribly evil people on earth had become—every single thought in their minds was evil all the time!
6 Hichun Pakai Pathenin mihem asem'a leiset chung'a aumsah hatah in akisih tai.
The Lord was sorry he'd made human beings to live on the earth; it made him very sad to think about it.
7 Hichun Pathen in aseiye, “Keiman kasem doh mihem hohi leiset chunga kon'a kasuh mang ding ahitai, mihem jouse alen aneo, gancha alen aneo tolgo chunga lamjot thei jouse chule chunglam a leng vachate ahi uvin, ajeh chu hicheng pi kana semdoh hi ka kisih lheh tai,” ati.
So the Lord said, “I'm going to wipe out these people I created from the earth, and not only them but also the animals, the creatures that run along the ground, and the birds, because I'm sorry I made them.”
8 Hinlah Noah chun Pathen lungdei lam in aum jing in ahi.
But the Lord was pleased with Noah.

This is the story of Noah and his family. Noah was a man of integrity, living a moral life among the people of his time. He had a close relationship with God.
10 Noah chun chate thum aneiyin amaho chu ahi le Shem, Ham, chule Japheth ahi uve.
Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Hichun Pathen in leiset chung ahinven ahile mihem ho phatlou na le kitahlou jeng amudoh tan ahi.
God saw how corrupt the whole world had become, full of violent and lawless people.
12 Pathen in jong thilpha lou jouse le thudih louva vannoi pumpia mihemte khat cheh a jong asetnao chu amudoh sohhel tai.
God recognized that the corruption in the world was due to everyone on earth living corrupt lives.
13 Hichun Pathen in Noah jah'a aseiyin, “Keiman tua hi hinna neiya avahle thei jouse ka suhmang ding ahi tai. Ajeh chu amaho jeh hin leiset chunga pumhat'a kino na jeng adim tan ahi, vetan kei man abonchauva leiset toh ka suhmang tha ding ahi tauve.
So God told Noah, “I have decided to put an end to all people on earth because they are all violent and lawless. I myself am going to destroy all of them, along with the earth.

Make a roof for the ark, leaving a cubit-wide opening between the roof and the top of the sides. Put a door in the side of the ark, and construct three decks inside.
