Genesis 6
1 And whanne men bigunnen to be multiplied on erthe, and hadden gendrid douytris,
Bere a nnipa dɔɔso wɔ asase so na wɔwoo mmabea no,
2 the sones of God seiyen the douytris of men that thei weren faire, and token wyues to hem of alle whiche thei hadden chose.
Onyankopɔn mmabarima no huu sɛ nnipa mmabea no ho yɛ fɛ, nti nea obiara pɛ no no, ɔfaa no waree.
3 And God seide, My spirit schal not dwelle in man with outen ende, for he is fleisch; and the daies of hym schulen be an hundrid and twenti yeer.
Na Awurade kae se, “Me honhom rentena nnipa mu nkosi daa, efisɛ wɔyɛ ɔhonam; na wɔn nkwa nna bɛyɛ mfe ɔha aduonu.”
4 Sotheli giauntis weren on erthe in tho daies, forsothe aftir that the sones of God entriden to the douytris of men, and tho douytris gendriden; these weren myyti of the world and famouse men.
Saa bere no, na nnipa abran wɔ asase no so. Bere a Onyankopɔn mmabarima yi kɔɔ nnipa mmabea yi ho no, wɔne wɔn wowoe. Saa nnipa yi ne kan tete nnipa atitiriw a wogyee din no.
5 Sotheli God seiy that myche malice of men was in erthe, and that al the thouyt of herte was ententif to yuel in al tyme,
Awurade Nyankopɔn huu sɛ adesamma amumɔyɛ adɔɔso wɔ asase so, na nnipa nsusuwii nyinaa yɛ bɔne nko ara.
6 and repentide him that he hadde maad man in erthe; and God was war bifore ayens tyme to comyng, and was touchid with sorewe of herte with ynne;
Awurade Nyankopɔn nuu ne ho sɛ ɔbɔɔ wɔn bɛtenaa asase so. Saa bɔne no yɛɛ Awurade Nyankopɔn awerɛhow.
7 and seide, Y schal do awei man, whom Y made of nouyt, fro the face of the erthe, fro man til to lyuynge thingis, fro crepynge beeste til to the briddis of heuene; for it repentith me that Y made hem.
Awurade kae se, “Mɛpepa nnipa a mabɔ wɔn no afi asase so; mmoa ne mmoa a wɔwea asase so ne wim nnomaa, efisɛ manu me ho sɛ mebɔɔ wɔn.”
8 Forsothe Noe foond grace bifore the Lord.
Nanso Noa de, onyaa adom Awurade anim.
9 These ben the generaciouns of Noe. Noe was a iust man and perfit in hise generaciouns; Noe yede with God,
Noa awo ntoatoaso ni. Na Noa yɛ onipa ɔtreneeni a ne ho nni asɛm wɔ ne bere sofo no mu. Ɔyɛɛ Onyankopɔn apɛde.
10 and gendride thre sones, Sem, Cam, and Jafeth.
Noa woo mmabarima baasa na wɔn din de Sem, Ham ne Yafet.
11 Forsothe the erthe was corrupt bifore God, and was fillid with wickidnes.
Na bɔne ahyɛ asase so ma a, amumɔyɛsɛm adɔɔso.
12 And whanne God seiy, that the erthe was corrupt, for ech fleisch ether man hadde corrupt his weie on erthe,
Onyankopɔn huu saa bɔne yi nyinaa wɔ asase so, huu awurukasɛm ne amumɔyɛsɛm wɔ mmaa nyinaa nso.
13 he seide to Noe, The ende of al fleisch is comen bifore me; the erthe is fillid with wickidnesse of the face of hem, and Y schal distrye hem with the erthe.
Enti Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Noa se, “Esiane sɛ nnipa ama basabasa aba asase so nti, mɛsɛe nnipa ne asase a wɔte so no nyinaa.
14 Make thou to thee a schip of trees hewun and planed; thou schalt make dwellynge placis in the schip, and thou schalt anoynte it with pitche with ynne and with outforth.
Fa ɔwawa dua yɛ adaka. Yɛ adan wɔ Adaka no mu, na fa ama ka mu ne akyi nyinaa.
15 And so thou schalt make it. The lengthe of the schip schal be of thre hundrid cubitis, the brede schal be of fifti cubitis, and the hiynesse therof schal be of thretti cubitis.
Sɛɛ na ɛsɛ sɛ woyɛ no: ma ne tenten nyɛ anammɔn ahannan aduonum, ne trɛw anammɔn aduɔson anum, na ne sorokɔ nso nyɛ anammɔn aduanan anum.
16 Thou schalt make a wyndow in the schip, and thou schalt ende the hiynesse therof in a cubite; sotheli thou schalt sette the dore of the schip in the side binethe; thou shalt make soleris and placis of thre chaumbris in the schip.
Bɔ adaka no so. Ma ne sorokɔ nyɛ bɛyɛ sɛ nsateaa dunwɔtwe. Fa ɔpon to adaka no nkyɛn, na yɛ nsɛmso abiɛsa; nea edi kan, nea ɛda ntam ne nea ɛwɔ soro.
17 Lo! Y schal brynge `watris of diluuye ether greet flood on erthe, and Y schal sle ech fleisch in which is the spirit of lijf vndir heuene, and alle thingis that ben in erthe, schulen be wastid.
Tie! Mede nsuyiri rebɛkata asase so nyinaa, na mede asɛe abɔde a nkwa wɔ mu; biribiara a nkwa wɔ mu no, ne nyinaa bewuwu.
18 And Y schal sette my couenaunt of pees with thee; and thou schalt entre in to the schip, and thy sones, and thi wijf, and the wiues of thi sones schulen entre with thee.
Na wo de, me ne wo bɛyɛ apam; na wo, wo mmabarima, wo yere ne wo mmabarima yerenom nyinaa ne wo bɛba Adaka no mu.
19 And of alle lyuynge beestis of al fleisch thou schalt brynge in to the schip tweyne and tweyne, of male kynde and female, that thei lyue with thee;
Ɛsɛ sɛ wode abɔde a nkwa wɔ mu nyinaa, abien abien a ɛyɛ onini ne ɔbere, a wo ne wɔn bɛtena adaka no mu nsuyiri bere no a wonnwuwu.
20 of briddis bi her kynde, and of werk beestis in her kynde, and of ech crepynge beeste of erthe, by her kynde; tweyne and tweyne of alle schulen entre with thee, that thei moun lyue.
Nnomaa ahorow biara abien, mmoa biara abien, ne abɔde biara a ɛwea asase so abien bɛba wo nkyɛn, na woahwɛ wɔn, na wɔanwuwu.
21 Therfore thou schalt take with thee of alle metis that moun be etun, and thou schalt bere to gidre at thee, and tho schulen be as well to thee as to the beestis in to mete.
Afei, fa nnuan ahorow a wodi na kora. Ɛno na ɛbɛyɛ wo ne wɔn nnuan a mubedi.”
22 Therfor Noe dide alle thingis whiche God comaundide to hym.
Noa yɛɛ biribiara pɛpɛɛpɛ, sɛnea Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no.
