1 Kane dhano ochako medore e piny, kendo onywolonegi nyiri,
And it came to pass when mankind began to multiply on the earth, and daughters were born to them,
2 yawuot Nyasaye noneno ni nyi dhano beyo kendo negikendo moro amora mane chunygi ogombo.
that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair, and took themselves wives of all that they chose.
3 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Mucha machiwo ngima ok nodag kuom dhano nyaka chiengʼ, nikech en ringruok matow, ndalone nobed higni mia achiel gi piero ariyo.”
And Jehovah said, My Spirit shall not always plead with Man; for he indeed is flesh; but his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.
4 Jo-Nefilim ma gin joma robede miwuoro ne nitie e piny e ndalogo kendo kod ndalo maluwe, e kindeno ma yawuot Nyasaye kod nyi dhano nonywomore monywolo nyithindo. Nyithindogo ne thuondi kendo joma ne nigi huma e ndalogo.
In those days were the giants on the earth, and also afterwards, when the sons of God had come in to the daughters of men, and they had borne [children] to them; these were the heroes, who of old were men of renown.
5 Jehova Nyasaye noneno kaka richo dhano ogundho e piny kendo kaka paro duto mag chunye ne mana timo richo seche duto.
And Jehovah saw that the wickedness of Man was great on the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil continually.
6 Jehova Nyasaye chunye nodoko malit kuom keto dhano e piny kendo chunye nopongʼ gi lit.
And Jehovah repented that he had made Man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart.
7 Kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Abiro nego dhano duto masechweyo e wangʼ piny kaachiel gi le kod gik mamol duto kod winy mafuyo e kor polo nimar dine ber ka dine ok achweyogi.”
And Jehovah said, I will destroy Man, whom I have created, from the earth — from man to cattle, to creeping things, and to fowl of the heavens; for I repent that I have made them.
8 To Nowa noyudo ngʼwono e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye.
But Noah found favour in the eyes of Jehovah.
9 Ma e nonro mar Nowa. Nowa ne ngʼama kare, kendo malongʼo e kind oganda mane nitie kendo nowuotho gi Nyasaye.
This is the history of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect amongst his generations: Noah walked with God.
10 Nowa ne nigi yawuowi adek: Shem, Ham kod Jafeth.
And Noah begot three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Koro piny nokethore e nyim Nyasaye kendo opongʼ gi timbe mahundu.
And the earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was full of violence.
12 Nyasaye noneno kaka piny nosekethore, nikech ji duto mae piny nodak e richo.
And God looked upon the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted its way on the earth.
13 Kuom mano, Nyasaye nowacho ne Nowa niya, “Abiro tieko dhano duto nikech piny opongʼ gi timbe maricho nikech gin. Adier abiro tiekogi kaachiel gi piny.
And God said to Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me, for the earth is full of violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
14 Omiyo los yie gi yien motegno, pog iye mondo owuog udi matindo kendo muone gi duogo, iye gi oko.
Make thyself an ark of gopher wood: [with] cells shalt thou make the ark; and pitch it inside and outside with pitch.
15 Ma e kaka ibiro gere: Borne en fut mia angʼwen gi piero abich, lachne en fut piero abiriyo gabich kendo tutne fut piero angʼwen gabich.
And thus shalt thou make it: let the length of the ark be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
16 Ketne tado kiweyo thuolo mar fut achiel gi nus e kind tado kod kore. Ketne dhoot kendo ipog iye gorofa adek.
A light shalt thou make to the ark; and to a cubit high shalt thou finish it above. And the door of the ark shalt thou set in its side: [with] a lower, second, and third [story] shalt thou make it.
17 Abiro kelo pi mar nam e piny mondo oketh gik mangima modak e bwo polo, gimoro amora man kod muya mar ngima e iye. Gimoro amora mae piny biro tho.
For I, behold, I bring a flood of waters on the earth, to destroy all flesh under the heavens in which is the breath of life: everything that is on the earth shall expire.
18 To abiro timo singruokna kodi, kendo ibiro donjo e yie, in kaachiel gi yawuoti kod chiegi, kod mond yawuoti.
But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt go into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
19 Ibiro kawo gik mangima duto, machwo kod mamon mondo gidonji kodi ei yie kendo iritgi gibed mangima.
And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every [sort] shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep [them] alive with thee: they shall be male and female.
20 Kuom kido duto mag winy, gi mag le, kod mag gik mamol e lowo ariyo ariyo nodonj kodi ei yie mondo ores ngimagi.
Of fowl after their kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of each shall go in to thee, to keep [them] alive.
21 Kaw kit chiemo duto monego cham kendo ikan-gi kaka chiembi kod mag-gi.”
And take thou of all food that is eaten, and gather [it] to thee, that it may be for food for thee and for them.
22 Nowa notimo gik moko duto mana kaka Nyasaye nochike.
And Noah did it; according to all that God had commanded him, so did he.
