1 Noane mofavre naga'anena Anumzamo'a asomu hunezmanteno amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Mofavrea kase zamantenke'za ama mopa ruvite'za maniho.
UNkulunkulu wambusisa uNowa lamadodana akhe wathi kubo, “Zalanani lande ngobunengi ligcwalise umhlaba.
2 Zafafima nemaniza zagaramima, timpima nemaniza zagaramima, namaramima, kazakaza hu'za vano nehaza zagaramina mika kegava hihogu tami'noanki'za tamagoro nehanageta kegava hugahaze.
Zizalesaba zibe lovalo ngani zonke izinyamazana zomhlaba, lazozonke izinyoni zemoyeni, lezinanakazana ezihuquzela emhlabathini, kanye lenhlanzi zonke zolwandle; ziphiwe ezandleni zakho.
3 Ana zagagafa nesnagu meni neramue. Kotera hagu' kamosa tami'noanki'na, menina maka'zana nesnagu neramamue.
Yonke into ephilayo lenyakazayo izakuba yikudla kuwe. Njengalokhu ngalipha izihlahla eziluhlaza, manje sengilipha yonke into.
4 Hianagi korama me'nea ame'a onegahaze, na'ankure korampina e'i asimu me'ne.
Kodwa lingadli inyama ilegazi lokuphila phakathi kwayo.
5 Tamage huankino, mago ne'mo'o, mago'a zagagafamo'zama tamahe'za tamagri korama eri fegi tesige'na, Nagranena ahena agri korana eri fegi atregahue. Mago'mo nefuma ahe frisnige'na, Ngaranena, agrira ahe frigahue.
Njalo igazi lokuphila kwenu ngizafuna impendulo ngalo, ngizafuna impendulo kuyo yonke inyamazana. Njalo emuntwini wonke ngizafuna ukwazi ngempilo yomzalwane wakhe.
6 Aza'o mago ne'ma ahe frisiana, ana nera ahe frigahaze. Na'ankure Nagra Anumzamo'na vahera Nagragna trohu zamante'noe.
Loba ngubani ochitha igazi lomuntu, igazi lakhe lizachithwa ngumuntu; ngoba ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu umenzile umuntu.
7 Kagrane, kagehe'zane, vahera kase hakare huta miko'a mopafina mani viteho.
Mayelana lani, zalanani lande ngobunengi; yandani emhlabeni libe banengi.”
8 Hagi mago'ane Anumzamo'a Noanku'ene, mofavre naga'agu'enena amanage huno zamasami'ne,
UNkulunkulu wasesithi kuNowa lakumadodana akhe ayelawo:
9 Menina antahio, kagrane, nagaka'ane kagehe'zane hagerfita mani'sunegu huvempage nehue.
“Manje sengimisa isivumelwano sami lani lezizukulwane zenu ezilandelayo
10 Hagi ventefinti'ma atiramiza kagranema mani'naza zagagafane namaramine, kumate zagafaramine, trampi zagagafaraminte'ene ana huvempa kea nehue.
lasosonke isidalwa esiphilayo esasilawe, izinyoni, izifuyo lezinyamazana zeganga, zonke lezo ezaphuma lani emkhunjini, sonke isidalwa esiphilayo emhlabeni.
11 Nagra huvempa ke'ni'a huama nehue, runena kora atresanugeno zamasimu ante'za mani'naza zagaramine, mopanena tina hageno zamahe fanane osugahie.
Ngiyasimisa isivumelwano sami lani: Kakusoze njalo impilo yonke iqunywe ngamanzi kazamcolo; kakusoze njalo kube lozamcolo ozabhubhisa umhlaba.”
12 Anante Anumzamo'a huno, Nagrama amama nehuana huvempa ke nehue, Nagrane, tamagra'ene hakare zamasimu eneriza zagaramima tamagrane mani'nazane, henkama fore'ma hanaza vahe'ene amu'nontifi huvempa kea nehuanki'na,
UNkulunkulu wathi, “Lesi yisiboniso sesivumelwano engisenzayo phakathi kwami lani lasosonke isidalwa esiphilayo elilaso, isivumelwano sezizukulwane zonke ezizayo:
13 mago avame'zana monare furagena ante'nanena, negeta antahi vava hugahaze.
Sengibeke umchilowamakhosikazi wami emayezini, wona uzakuba yisiboniso sesivumelwano phakathi kwami lomhlaba.
14 Hampona huntesugeno mopa refinetenkeno, furagenamo'a monare fore hugahie.
Kuzakuthi nxa ngiletha amayezi phezu komhlaba besekuvela umchilowamakhosikazi emayezini,
15 Nagrama kagri'ene maka ama mopafima zamasimu eri'za nemaniza zagagafagu'ma huvempama hu'noa ke'ni'agu nagesa nentahi'na, ete tinura tamahe fanane osugahue.
ngizakhumbula isivumelwano sami phakathi kwami lani lazozonke izidalwa eziphilayo ezemihlobo yonke. Kakusoze njalo lanini amanzi abe yisikhukhula esizabhubhisa impilo.
16 Hagi monare'ma furage'nama Nagrama negesuna, maka zamasimu'ma eri'za nemaniza zagaramina huvempa kema huzamante'noa kegu nagesa antahigahue.
Kuzakuthi nxa kungavela umchilowamakhosikazi emayezini ngizawubona besengikhumbula isivumelwano saphakade phakathi kukaNkulunkulu lezidalwa zonke eziphilayo ezemihlobo yonke emhlabeni.”
17 Mopafi vea'ene zagagafane huhagerafinogu avame'a, e'inahu'za fore hugahie, huno furagenakura Anumzamo'a Noana asami'ne.
UNkulunkulu wasesithi kuNowa, “Lesi yisiboniso sesivumelwano esengisimisile phakathi kwami lakho konke okuphilayo emhlabeni.”
18 Hagi ama Noa mofavre naga'ma ventefinti atirami'namokizmi zamagi'a, Semi'e, Hamu'e Jafeti'e. Hagi Hamu'a Kenani nefa'e.
Amadodana kaNowa aphuma emkhunjini ayengoShemu, uHamu loJafethi. (UHamu wayenguyise kaKhenani.)
19 Noana tagufa mofavre nagapinti mopafima mani'nona vahera, forehu hakare hu'none.
La ayeyiwo amadodana amathathu kaNowa, kuwo kwadabuka abantu abasabalala emhlabeni wonke.
20 Hagi tima hagetegeno henka, Noa'a hoza ne' mani'neno krepi hoza ante'ne.
UNowa, indoda yomhlabathi, wasuka wahlanyela isivini.
21 Mago zupa waini tima'a neteno negineno kena omasi avufga avapa seli noma'afi mase'ne.
Wathi esenathe iwayini lakhona, wadakwa walala enqunu phakathi kwethente lakhe.
22 Kenani nefa Hamu'a ome keana Noa'a avufa avapa mase'negeno keteno atiramino nempu'amokizni ome zanasmi'ne.
UHamu, uyise kaKhenani, wabona ubunqunu bukayise wasetshela abafowabo phandle.
23 Hagi Semike, Jafetikea tavrave eri'ne zanafunte antetene zanamigati ana seli nompi vu'ne neznafana ome refitentena'e. Zanavugosa arugaziga hunte'ne nezanafa avufga onke'na'e.
Kodwa uShemu loJafethi bathatha isivunulo basiphosela emahlombe abo; bangena behamba nyovane bamboza ubunqunu bukayise. Ubuso babo babukhangele emuva ukuze bangaboni ubunqunu bukayise.
24 Hagi Noa'ma negineno mase'nefinti henka ruhari huno negeno Hamu'ma hunte'nea zana keno antahino huteno,
Kwathi uNowa esevukile selehlile iwayini wezwa ngokwakwenziwe kuye yindodana yakhe encane kulamanye,
25 Noa'a amanage hu'ne, Kenani'a sifnafi nemanino, afuhe'mokizmi zamagafinka evuramino amane eri'za vahe'zami manigahie.
wathi, “Uqalekisiwe uKhenani! Isigqili esizakuba phansi kubafowabo.”
26 Hagi mago'ane Noa'a anage hu'ne, Semi Anumzamofo ra agi nemita agi'a ahentesga hanune. Kenaniga, Semi kato vahe manigahane.
Wabuya wathi njalo, “Udumo kalube kuThixo, uNkulunkulu kaShemu! Sengathi uKhenani angaba yisigqili sikaShemu.
27 Anumzamo'a Jafetina, mopa'a erira huntenkeno Semi'ene tragotene mani'ne snakeno Kenani'a Jafeti eri'za vahe manigahie.
Sengathi uNkulunkulu angaqhelisa indawo kaJafethi; sengathi uJafethi angahlala emathenteni kaShemu, njalo sengathi uKhenani angaba yisichaka sakhe.”
28 Timo'a tanetegeno Noa'a mago'ane 350'a Zagegafu mani'ne.
Ngemva kukazamcolo uNowa waphila okweminyaka engamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi amahlanu.
29 Hagi ana miko 950'a zagegafu Noa'a maniteno fri'ne.
UNowa waphila okweminyaka engamakhulu ayisificamunwemunye lamatshumi amahlanu isiyonke, wasesifa.
