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,
Yeroo namoonni biyya lafaa irratti baayʼachuu jalqabanii intallan dhalataniifitti,
2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were fair; and they took themselves wives of all whom they chose.
Ilmaan Waaqaa akka intallan namootaa babbareedoo taʼan argan; isaan keessaas abbuma filatan fuudhan.
3 And the Lord said, My Spirit shall not always strive for the sake of man, for that he is but flesh; yet his days [of grace] shall be a hundred and twenty years.
Yommus Waaqayyo, “Namni waan foon taʼeef Hafuurri koo bara baraan isa keessa hin jiraatu; barri jireenya isaas waggaa dhibba tokkoo fi digdama taʼa” jedhe.
4 The giants were on the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; these became the mighty men, who were of old the men of renown.
Bara sanaa fi ergasiis Nefiiliimonni lafa irra turan; ilmaan Waaqaas yommuu gara intallan namaa dhaqanitti ijoollee dhalchan. Isaanis gootota durii warra beekamoo turan.
5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Waaqayyos akka jalʼinni namaa lafa irratti baayʼatee, wanni namni yeroo hunda garaa isaatti yaadu hundinuus jalʼaa qofa taʼe arge.
6 And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
Waaqayyos waan lafa irratti nama uumeef ni gaabbe; garaan isaas ni gadde.
7 And the Lord said, I will destroy the man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man and beast, and the creeping things and the fowls of the heaven; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo, “Ani sanyii namaa kan ofii kootiin uume lafa irraa nan balleessa. Namaa fi horii, uumama lafa irra munyuuqu, simbirroota samii nan balleessa; ani isaan uumuu kootti gaabbeeraatii” jedhe.
8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.
Nohi garuu fuula Waaqayyoo duratti surraa argate.
9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just, perfect man in his generation; Noah walked with God.
Seenaan Nohii fi maatii isaa kanaa dha. Nohi namoota bara isaa turan gidduutti nama qajeelaa, nama hirʼina hin qabne kan Waaqa wajjin deddeebiʼu ture.
10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
Nohi ilmaan sadii dhalche; isaanis: Seem, Haamii fi Yaafet.
11 And the earth was corrupt before God; and the earth was filled with violence.
Lafti fuula Waaqaa duratti faalamtee jeequmsaan guutamte turte.
12 And God looked upon the earth, and behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
Sababii namoonni lafa irraa hundinuu karaa isaanii faalaniif, Waaqni akka lafti faalamte arge.
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 I will destroy them with the earth.
Kanaafuu Waaqni Nohiin akkana jedhe; “Waan lafti sababii isaaniitiin jeequmsaan guutamteef, ani nama hunda nan balleessa; kunoo ani dhugumaan lafaa fi isaan nan barbadeessa.
14 Make thee an ark of gopher-wood, rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
Ati muka Goofar irraa doonii tolfadhu; keessa isaattis kutaa garaa garaa qopheessi; keessaa fi duuba isaas hapheedhaan duuchi.
15 And this is the manner in which thou shalt make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
Haalli ati ittiin doonicha tolchitu kanaa dha; dheerina isaa dhundhuma dhibbaa sadii, balʼina isaa dhundhuma shantama, ol dheerina isaa dhundhuma soddoma godhi.
16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and thou shalt finish it above, to be one cubit broad, and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.
Doonichaaf bantii dhundhuma tokko ol kaʼu hojjedhu; cinaacha isaa irrattis balbala baasi; kanas abbaa darbii sadii jechuunis kan gadii, kan gidduutii fi kan gubbaa godhii hojjedhu.
17 And as regards myself, behold, I will bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under the heavens; every thing that is on the earth shall perish.
Kunoo, ani uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii hunda samii jalaa balleessuuf bishaan badiisaa lafatti nan fida; wanni lafa irra jiraatu hundinuus ni bada.
18 But I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
Si wajjin garuu kakuu nan gala; atis doonii seenta; atii fi ilmaan kee, niitiin keetii fi niitonni ilmaan keetiis ni seentu.
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: male and female shall they be.
Uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii hundumaa keessaa akka isaan si wajjin jiraataniif lama lama, kormaa fi dhalaa doonichatti galchi.
20 Of the fowls after their kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after its kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.
Simbirroota keessaa akkuma gosa gosa isaaniitti, horii keessaa akkuma gosa gosa isaaniitti, uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan keessaas akkuma gosa gosa isaaniitti, lama lama taʼanii jiraachuuf gara kee dhufu.
21 And thou, for thy part, take unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be unto thee, and unto them for food.
Waan nyaatamu hunda keessaa waa fuudhii of biratti walitti qabi! Kunis nyaata keetii fi nyaata isaanii ni taʼa.”
22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God had commanded him, so he did.
Nohi akkuma Waaqni isa ajajetti waan hunda hojjete.
The World is Destroyed by Water
