Genesis 6
1 And after a time, when men were increasing on the earth, and had daughters,
Leleꞌ naa, atahori bau ramaheta. Ara rasodꞌa nggari-nggari sia bee-bꞌee ndule raefafoꞌ ia. Ara o bꞌonggi ana inaꞌ ra boe.
2 The sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took wives for themselves from those who were pleasing to them.
Lamatuaꞌ ana tou nara rita atahori ra ana fetoꞌ nara meulauꞌ. De reu sao ana feto fo sira hiiꞌ ra.
3 And the Lord said, My spirit will not be in man for ever, for he is only flesh; so the days of his life will be a hundred and twenty years.
Boe ma LAMATUALAIN nae, “Au benggeꞌ a o atahori mana rasodꞌa tao leliꞌ ia ra. Dula-dale Ngga mana fee masodꞌa neu se, nda nau se rasodꞌa rakandoo sa ena. Ara musi mate. De mia ia, ara rasodꞌa losaꞌ a too natun esa rua nulu.”
4 There were men of great strength and size on the earth in those days; and after that, when the sons of God had connection with the daughters of men, they gave birth to children: these were the great men of old days, the men of great name.
Leleꞌ naa, ma fai maꞌabuiꞌ ra, hambu atahori seleꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ena. Lamatualain ana tou nara sao atahori ra ana feto nara, de bꞌonggi atahori seleꞌ naa ra. Ara dadꞌi malangga matatiꞌ ra, fo mana nenebebenggaꞌ sia dudꞌui maꞌahulu na.
5 And the Lord saw that the sin of man was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts of his heart were evil.
Leleꞌ naa, LAMATUALAIN nita atahori sia raefafoꞌ deꞌulaka na naseliꞌ ena. Rala nara duꞌa akaꞌ a deꞌulakaꞌ rakandooꞌ a.
6 And the Lord had sorrow because he had made man on the earth, and grief was in his heart.
De LAMATUALAIN fale rala Na, huu naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ se, ma fee se leo sia raefafoꞌ ia ena. Naa, nameraꞌ rala Na seli.
7 And the Lord said, I will take away man, whom I have made, from the face of the earth, even man and beast and that which goes on the earth and every bird of the air; for I have sorrow for having made them.
Naa de, Ana olaꞌ nae, “Dei fo Au tao ulutu atahori, fo Au uꞌudadadꞌiꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia. Au o tao ulutu mbuiꞌ ra ro banda feaꞌ ra, huu Au fale rala Ngga tao ala se ena.”
8 But Noah had grace in the eyes of God.
Akaꞌ a Noh, tao namahoꞌo LAMATUALAIN rala Na.
9 These are the generations of Noah. Noah was an upright man and without sin in his generation: he went in the ways of God.
Ia, Noh dudꞌui na. Ana tou na telu, nara nara Sem, Yafet ma Ham. Noh nasodꞌa ndoos, nda tao deꞌulakaꞌ sa. Ana nasodꞌa deka no Lamatualain. Ma leleꞌ naa, akaꞌ a mesaꞌ ne maloleꞌ.
10 And Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 And the earth was evil in God's eyes and full of violent ways.
Te Lamatualain nita atahori feaꞌ ra, basa se deꞌulakaꞌ. Sia bee-bꞌee atahori dala masodꞌa nara nda matetuꞌ sa. Lamatualain nita atahori sia raefafoꞌ, akaꞌ a deꞌulakaꞌ ra.
12 And God, looking on the earth, saw that it was evil: for the way of all flesh had become evil on the earth.
13 And God said to Noah, The end of all flesh has come; the earth is full of their violent doings, and now I will put an end to them with the earth.
Boe ma Ana nafadꞌe Noh nae, “Sia bee-bꞌee, Au ita akaꞌ a atahori deꞌulaka nara. De Au uꞌetuꞌ ae tao ulutu raefafoꞌ ia no basa isi-oe na.
14 Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood with rooms in it, and make it safe from the water inside and out.
Dadꞌi taꞌo ia, Noh! Tao ofai esa mia hau manggateeꞌ. Sia ofai naa rala, tao kama-kama. Basa naa, dudꞌu ofai a ma leli e no ter.
15 And this is the way you are to make it: it is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high.
Tao ofai a nanaru na, meter natun esa telu nulu telu. Loloa na, meter rua nulu rua. Ma ataꞌ neu a, meter sanahulu telu.
16 You are to put a window in the ark, a cubit from the roof, and a door in the side of it, and you are to make it with a lower and second and third floors.
Tao ofai a ma mbuniꞌ. Te hela mbuni na onaꞌ a banggi rua meter esa mia ririndi na. Banggi ofai a neu tadꞌaꞌ telu ma tao lelesu esa neu bobꞌoa na.
17 For truly, I will send a great flow of waters over the earth, for the destruction from under the heaven of all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything on the earth will come to an end.
Musunedꞌa malolole! Dei fo Au uꞌondaꞌ oe mandaliꞌ monaeꞌ fo tao nisa basa mana masodꞌaꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia, losa nda hela saa saꞌ boe.
18 But with you I will make an agreement; and you will come into the ark, you and your sons and your wife and your sons' wives with you.
Te Au ae tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ o nggo. Dei fo ofai rala muu mo sao ma, ana mara, ma ana feto feu mara.
19 And you will take with you into the ark two of every sort of living thing, and keep them safe with you; they will be male and female.
Ho o musi haꞌi mala basa banda ra pasan beꞌe esaꞌ, ma mendi se ofai rala neu, fo ara rasodꞌa ro nggo boe. Haꞌi banda neꞌeboiꞌ ra, mbuiꞌ ra, ma banda mana nodꞌoꞌ ra, fo basa se rasodꞌa.
20 Two of every sort of bird and cattle and of every sort of living thing which goes on the earth will you take with you to keep them from destruction.
21 And make a store of every sort of food for yourself and them.
Ho o musi mendi nanaat mataꞌ-mataꞌ nisiꞌ ofai rala neu, soaꞌ neu hei mo banda ra.”
22 And all these things Noah did; as God said, so he did.
Boe ma, Noh tao tungga basa Lamatulain parenda Na.
The World is Destroyed by Water
