Genesis 6
1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
Leleꞌ naa, atahori bau ramaheta. Ara rasodꞌa nggari-nggari sia bee-bꞌee ndule raefafoꞌ ia. Ara o bꞌonggi ana inaꞌ ra boe.
2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they [were] fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
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 shall not always strive with man, for that he also [is] flesh: yet his days shall be an 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 giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare [children] to them, the same [became] mighty men which [were] of old, men of renown.
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 GOD saw that the wickedness of man [was] great in the earth, and [that] every imagination of the thoughts of his heart [was] only evil continually.
Leleꞌ naa, LAMATUALAIN nita atahori sia raefafoꞌ deꞌulaka na naseliꞌ ena. Rala nara duꞌa akaꞌ a deꞌulakaꞌ rakandooꞌ a.
6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at 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 destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have 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 found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
Akaꞌ a Noh, tao namahoꞌo LAMATUALAIN rala Na.
9 These [are] the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man [and] perfect in his generations, [and] Noah walked with 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 begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
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 looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy 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 thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
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 fashion] which thou shalt make it [of: ] The length of the ark [shall be] three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
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 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; [with] lower, second, and third [stories] shalt thou make it.
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 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein [is] the breath of life, from under heaven; [and] every thing that [is] in the earth shall die.
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 thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons’ wives with thee.
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 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.
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 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every [sort] shall come unto thee, to keep [them] alive.
21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather [it] to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.
Ho o musi mendi nanaat mataꞌ-mataꞌ nisiꞌ ofai rala neu, soaꞌ neu hei mo banda ra.”
22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
Boe ma, Noh tao tungga basa Lamatulain parenda Na.
The World is Destroyed by Water
