Jenesis 6
1 Mgbe ndị mmadụ bidoro mụbaa nʼụwa, mgbe a mụtakwaara ha ọtụtụ ụmụ ndị inyom,
And it cometh to pass that mankind have begun to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters have been born to them,
2 ka ụmụ ndị ikom Chineke bidoro ilekwasị ụmụ ndị inyom ndị mmadụ anya, hụ na ha mara mma. Ha duuru ndị inyom ọbụla masịrị ha ka ha bụrụ nwunye ha.
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.
3 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Mmụọ m na mmadụ agaghị anọgide nʼịgba mgba nʼime mmadụ ruo ebighị ebi, nʼihi na mmadụ efu ka ọ bụ. Ọnụọgụgụ ndụ ya ga-abụ narị afọ na iri afọ abụọ.”
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.
4 Ndị Nefilim nọ nʼụwa nʼoge ahụ, ma nʼoge sotere ya mgbe ahụ, ụmụ ndị ikom Chineke na-abakwuru ndị inyom ụmụ mmadụ, site na mmekọrịta dị otu a mụọ ụmụ. Ndị a bụ ndị dike mgbe ochie ahụ, ndị a ma ama.
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.
5 Onyenwe anyị hụrụ otu ịba ụba nke ajọ omume mmadụ si dị ukwuu, hụkwa na echiche uche nke obi ya niile dị naanị nʼime ihe ọjọọ, mgbe niile.
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;
6 O wutere Onyenwe anyị nke ukwuu na o kere mmadụ, mkpụrụobi ya jupụtakwara nʼihe mgbu.
and Jehovah repenteth that He hath made man in the earth, and He grieveth Himself — unto His heart.
7 Nʼihi ya, Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Aga m esi nʼụwa kpochapụ mmadụ niile m kere eke. E e, mmadụ na anụmanụ niile, na ihe e kere eke na-akpụgharị nʼelu ala, na anụ ufe niile. Nʼihi na o wutere m na m kere ha.”
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.'
8 Ma Noa nwetara ihuọma nʼanya Onyenwe anyị.
And Noah found grace in the eyes of Jehovah.
9 Nke a bụ akụkọ banyere usoro ndụ Noa na ezinaụlọ ya. Noa bụ onye ezi omume. Onye na-enweghị ịta ụta ọbụla nʼetiti ndị bi nʼoge ya. O mere ihe nʼụzọ Chineke chọrọ ya.
These [are] births of Noah: Noah [is] a righteous man; perfect he hath been among his generations; with God hath Noah walked habitually.
10 Noa mụtara ụmụ ndị ikom atọ aha ha bụ, Shem, Ham, na Jafet.
And Noah begetteth three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Ma nʼanya Chineke, ụwa bụ ihe rụrụ arụ, jupụtakwa nʼihe ike.
And the earth is corrupt before God, and the earth is filled [with] violence.
12 Chineke hụrụ otu ụwa si jọgbuo onwe ya na njọ, hụkwa na ụmụ mmadụ bụ ndị ihe ọjọọ riri ahụ.
And God seeth the earth, and lo, it hath been corrupted, for all flesh hath corrupted its way on the earth.
13 Chineke sịrị Noa, “Aga m ebibi ihe niile bụ mmadụ, nʼihi na ụwa jupụtara nʼihe ike nʼihi omume mmadụ. E e, aga m ebibi ụwa na ndị niile nọ nʼime ya.
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.
14 Ya mere, jiri osisi gofa wuore onwe gị ụgbọ mmiri. Rụnye ọtụtụ ọnụụlọ nʼime ya. Jiri korota techie elu ya na ime ya.
'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;
15 Otu a ka i ga-esi wuo ya: mee ka ogologo ụgbọ mmiri ahụ dịrị narị mita na iri mita anọ, obosara ya dịrị iri mita abụọ na atọ, ịdị elu ya dịrị mita iri na atọ na ọkara.
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;
16 Meere ụgbọ mmiri ahụ ihe e ji ekpuchi elu ya. Mekwa oghere ga-adị ọkara mita site nʼebe ihe mkpuchi elu ụgbọ mmiri ahụ gbadata. Tinye ọnụ ụzọ nʼakụkụ ụgbọ mmiri ahụ, ma rụọkwa okpukpu nkwasa atọ, nke ala ala, nke etiti na nke elu elu.
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.
17 Nʼihi na aga m eweta uju mmiri nʼụwa, ibibi ihe niile nwere ndụ dị nʼokpuru eluigwe. Ihe niile e kere eke na-eku ume ndụ ga-anwụ. Ihe niile nọ nʼụwa ga-ala nʼiyi.
'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.
18 Ma aga m eme ka ọgbụgba ndụ m dịrị gị. Ị ga-abanye nʼụgbọ mmiri ahụ, gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom, na nwunye gị, na ndị nwunye ụmụ gị ndị ikom.
'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;
19 Ị ga-ewebata ihe niile e kere eke dị ndụ, abụọ abụọ, oke na nwunye, ichebe ha ndụ.
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.
20 Ụdị nnụnụ dị iche iche, abụọ abụọ, na ụdị anụmanụ ọbụla dị iche iche, na ụdị anụ na-akpụ akpụ dị iche iche, ga-abịakwute gị ka i debe ha ndụ.
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 Ị ga-ewebata ụdị nri dị iche iche a na-eri eri, chịkọtaa ha ka ọ bụrụ nri nke gị na nke ha.”
'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.'
22 Noa mere ihe niile dịka Chineke nyere ya iwu ime.
And Noah doth according to all that God hath commanded him; so hath he done.
The World is Destroyed by Water
