< Genesis 6 >
1 And it cometh to pass that mankind have begun to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters have been born to them,
Leleꞌ naa, atahori bau ramaheta. Ara rasodꞌa nggari-nggari sia bee-bꞌee ndule raefafoꞌ ia. Ara o bꞌonggi ana inaꞌ ra boe.
2 and sons of God see the daughters of men that they [are] fair, and they take to themselves women of all whom they have chosen.
Lamatuaꞌ ana tou nara rita atahori ra ana fetoꞌ nara meulauꞌ. De reu sao ana feto fo sira hiiꞌ ra.
3 And Jehovah saith, 'My Spirit doth not strive in man — to the age; in their erring they [are] flesh:' and his days have been 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 The fallen ones were in the earth in those days, and even afterwards when sons of God come in unto daughters of men, and they have borne to them — they [are] the heroes, who, from of old, [are] the men of 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 Jehovah seeth that abundant [is] the wickedness of man in the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil all the day;
Leleꞌ naa, LAMATUALAIN nita atahori sia raefafoꞌ deꞌulaka na naseliꞌ ena. Rala nara duꞌa akaꞌ a deꞌulakaꞌ rakandooꞌ a.
6 and Jehovah repenteth that He hath made man in the earth, and He grieveth Himself — unto 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 Jehovah saith, 'I wipe away man whom I have prepared from off the face of the ground, from man unto beast, unto creeping thing, and unto fowl of the heavens, for I have repented 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 And Noah found grace in the eyes of Jehovah.
Akaꞌ a Noh, tao namahoꞌo LAMATUALAIN rala Na.
9 These [are] births of Noah: Noah [is] a righteous man; perfect he hath been among his generations; with God hath Noah walked habitually.
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 begetteth three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 And the earth is corrupt before God, and the earth is 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 seeth the earth, and lo, it hath been corrupted, for all flesh hath corrupted its way on the earth.
13 And God said to Noah, 'An end of all flesh hath come before Me, for the earth hath been full of violence from their presence; and lo, I am destroying 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 thyself an ark of gopher-wood; rooms dost thou make with the ark, and thou hast covered it within and without with cypress;
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] that which thou dost with it: three hundred cubits [is] the length of the ark, fifty cubits its breadth, and thirty cubits its height;
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 dost thou make for the ark, and unto a cubit thou dost restrain it from above; and the opening of the ark thou dost put in its side, — lower, second, and third [stories] dost 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 I, lo, I am bringing in the deluge of waters on the earth to destroy all flesh, in which [is] a living spirit, from under the heavens; all that [is] in the earth doth expire.
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 'And I have established My covenant with thee, and thou hast come in unto the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy son's 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 all that liveth, of all flesh, two of every [sort] thou dost bring in unto the ark, to keep alive with thee; male and female are they.
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 the fowl after its kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every [sort] they come in unto thee, to keep alive.
21 'And thou, take to thyself of all food that is eaten; and thou hast gathered unto thyself, and it hath been to thee and to them for food.'
Ho o musi mendi nanaat mataꞌ-mataꞌ nisiꞌ ofai rala neu, soaꞌ neu hei mo banda ra.”
22 And Noah doth according to all that God hath commanded him; so hath he done.
Boe ma, Noh tao tungga basa Lamatulain parenda Na.
