< Genesis 6 >
1 And it was that began humankind to become numerous on [the] surface of the ground and daughters they were born to them.
Rĩrĩa andũ maambĩrĩirie kũingĩha thĩ na magĩciarĩrwo airĩtu-rĩ,
2 And they saw [the] sons of God [the] daughters of humankind that [were] good they and they took for themselves wives from all whom they chose.
ariũ a Ngai makĩona atĩ airĩtu a andũ maarĩ athaka, nao makĩhikia o ũrĩa mũndũ ethuuragĩra.
3 And he said Yahweh not will remain spirit my in humankind for ever in that also he [is] flesh and they will be days his one hundred and twenty year[s].
Nake Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Roho wakwa ndegũtũũra agianaga na mũndũ nginya tene, tondũ mũndũ nĩ wa gũkua; matukũ make marĩkoragwo marĩ mĩaka igana na mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ.”
4 The Nephilim they were on the earth in the days those and also after thus when they went [the] sons of God into [the] daughters of humankind and they bore children to them they [were] the mighty [men] who [were] from long ago [the] men of name.
Na rĩrĩ, matukũ-inĩ macio, o na thuutha ũcio, rĩrĩa Anefili matũũraga gũkũ thĩ, nĩrĩo ariũ a Ngai maakomire na airĩtu a andũ na magĩciara ciana nao. Ciana icio nĩcio ciarĩ njamba cia tene na andũ arĩa maarĩ igweta.
5 And he saw Yahweh that [was] great [the] evil of humankind on the earth and every inclination of [the] thoughts of heart his only [was] evil every day.
Jehova akĩona ũrĩa waganu wa andũ waingĩhĩte gũkũ thĩ, na atĩ merirĩria ma meciiria ma ngoro ciao maarĩ mooru hĩndĩ ciothe.
6 And he regretted Yahweh that he had made humankind on the earth and he was pained to heart his.
Jehova akĩnyiitwo nĩ kĩeha nĩ ũndũ wa kũũmba mũndũ gũkũ thĩ, na ngoro yake ĩkĩiyũrwo nĩ ruo.
7 And he said Yahweh I will wipe humankind which I created from on [the] surface of the ground from humankind unto animal[s] unto creeping thing[s] and unto [the] bird[s] of the heavens for I regret that I have made them.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũniina andũ, o arĩa niĩ ndombire, mathire kuuma thĩ, andũ na nyamũ, na ciũmbe iria ithiiagĩra thĩ, o na nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ, nĩgũkorwo ndĩ na kĩeha nĩ ũndũ wa gũciũmba.”
8 And Noah he found favor in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
No Nuhu agĩĩtĩkĩrĩka maitho-inĩ ma Jehova.
9 These [are] [the] accounts of Noah Noah [was] a man righteous blameless he was in generations his with God he walked about Noah.
Ũyũ nĩguo ũhoro wa Nuhu. Nuhu aarĩ mũndũ mũthingu, ũtaarĩ na ũcuuke kũrĩ andũ a hĩndĩ yake, na nĩatwaranaga na Ngai.
10 And he fathered Noah three sons Shem Ham and Japheth.
Nuhu aarĩ na ariũ atatũ: nĩo Shemu, na Hamu na Jafethu.
11 And was corrupt the earth before God and was filled the earth violence.
Thĩ nayo yarĩ thũku maitho-inĩ ma Jehova na yaiyũrĩtwo nĩ maũndũ ma ũhinya.
12 And he saw God the earth and there! it was corrupt for had corrupted all flesh way its on the earth.
Ngai nĩonire ũrĩa thĩ yathũkĩte, nĩgũkorwo andũ othe a thĩ nĩmathũkĩtie mĩthiĩre yao.
13 And he said God to Noah [the] end of all flesh [is] coming before me for is full the earth violence because of them and here [am] I about to destroy them with the earth.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩĩra Nuhu atĩrĩ, “Nĩnduĩte itua kũniina andũ aya othe, nĩgũkorwo thĩ nĩ ĩiyũrĩtwo nĩ maũndũ ma ũhinya nĩ ũndũ wao. Ti-itherũ nĩngũmaniinanĩria hamwe na thĩ.
14 Make for yourself an ark of wood of gopher nests you will make the ark and you will cover it from inside and from outside with pitch.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, wĩyakĩre thabina ya mĩtĩ ya mĩthithinda; na ũthondeke tũnyũmba thĩinĩ, na ũmĩhake rami thĩinĩ na nja.
15 And this [is] how you will make it [will be] three hundred cubit[s] [the] length of the ark [will be] fifty cubit[s] breadth its and [will be] thirty cubit[s] height its.
Na ũkũmĩaka ũũ: Ũraihu wa thabina ũkorwo ũrĩ buti magana mana na mĩrongo ĩtano, na wariĩ wa buti mĩrongo mũgwanja na ithano na buti mĩrongo ĩna na ithano, kũraiha na igũrũ.
16 A roof - you will make for the ark and to a cubit you will finish it from to above and [the] entrance of the ark in side its you will put lower [decks] second [decks] and third [decks] you will make it.
Ũmĩgite igũrũ, no ũtigie buti ĩmwe na nuthu mwena wa igũrũ wa thingo. Wĩkĩre mũrango mwena-inĩ wa thabina, na ũmĩake ĩrĩ na ngoroba ya thĩ, na ya gatagatĩ, na ya igũrũ.
17 And I here I [am] about to bring the flood water on the earth to destroy all flesh which [is] in it [the] breath of life from under the heavens all that [is] on the earth will die.
Nĩngũrehe mũiyũro wa maaĩ gũkũ thĩ wa kũniina kĩndũ gĩothe kĩrĩ muoyo gũkũ thĩ, kĩũmbe o gĩothe kĩrĩ na mĩhũmũ ya muoyo thĩinĩ wakĩo. Indo ciothe irĩ thĩ nĩikũniinwo.
18 And I will establish covenant my with you and you will go into the ark you and sons your and wife your and [the] wives of sons your with you.
No nĩngũthondeka kĩrĩkanĩro nawe. Wee nĩũgatoonya thabina, wee mwene na ariũ aku na mũtumia waku, na atumia a ariũ aku.
19 And of every living [thing] of all flesh two of everything you will bring into the ark to preserve alive with you male and female they will be.
Ningĩ nĩũkaingĩria ciũmbe cia mĩthemba yothe thĩinĩ wa thabina, o mũthemba ciũmbe igĩrĩ, wa njamba na wa nga, nĩguo itũũre muoyo, o hamwe nawe.
20 Of the bird[s] to kind its and of the animal[s] to kind its from every creeping thing of the ground to kind its two of everything they will come to you to preserve alive.
O mũthemba wa nyoni, na o mũthemba wa nyamũ ciothe na ciũmbe ciothe iria ithiiagĩra thĩ, nĩigooka kũrĩ we igĩrĩ igĩrĩ nĩguo itũũre muoyo.
21 And you take for yourself some of all food which is eaten and you will gather [it] to yourself and it will become for you and for them food.
Nĩũkamaatha mĩthemba yothe ya irio iria irĩĩagwo, ũciige irĩ irio ciaku na ciacio.”
22 And he did Noah according to all that he commanded him God so he did.
Nuhu agĩĩka maũndũ mothe o ta ũrĩa Ngai aamwathĩte eeke.
