Genesis 6
1 Ke mwet uh fahsrelik nu yen nukewa faclu, ac oasr tulik mutan osweyukla,
Now when men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born to them,
2 kutu sin mwet lucng liyauk lah tulik mutan inge oasku, ouinge elos payukyak selos su elos lungse.
the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they took as wives whomever they chose.
3 Na LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah tia fuhlela mwet uh in moul nwe tok — elos mano na sukawil. Ingela elos ac fah tia moul loes liki yac siofok longoul.”
So the LORD said, “My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days shall be 120 years.”
4 In len ingo, aok finne kutu pacl toko, oasr mwet na lulap pisa fin faclu pangpang Nephilim, su ma nutin mutan faclu nu sin mukul lucng. Elos mwet na pwengpeng ac pulaik in pacl so.
The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and afterward as well—when the sons of God had relations with the daughters of men. And they bore them children who became the mighty men of old, men of renown.
5 Ke LEUM GOD El liye lupan koluk lun mwet nukewa fin faclu, ac lupan nunak koluk lalos ke pacl nukewa,
Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great upon the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was altogether evil all the time.
6 El arulana auli lah el oralosla ac fuhlelosi fin faclu. Yohk oela lal,
And the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.
7 na El fahk, “Nga fah sukela mwet nukewa nga orala inge, wi ma orakrak ac won nukewa, mweyen yohk toasr luk lah nga oralosla.”
So the LORD said, “I will blot out man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—every man and beast and crawling creature and bird of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them.”
8 Tusruktu LEUM GOD El insewowo sel Noah.
Noah, however, found favor in the eyes of the LORD.
9 Pa inge sramsram kacl Noah ac fwilin tulik natul. Noah el moul in sie sin sie yurin God, ac el mukena moul suwohs ac wangin mwatal inmasrlon mwet nukewa in fwil lal.
This is the account of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God.
10 Oasr wen tolu natul Noah, inelos pa Shem, Ham, ac Japheth.
And Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Tusruktu mwet nukewa sayal Noah arulana koluk ye mutun God, na lokoalok ac moul sesuwos apunla faclu.
Now the earth was corrupt in the sight of God, and full of violence.
12 God El liye lah faclu arulana kolukla, mweyen moul lun mwet nukewa arulana koluk.
And God looked upon the earth and saw that it was corrupt; for all living creatures on the earth had corrupted their ways.
13 God El fahk nu sel Noah, “Nga wotela tari ngan kunausla mwet nukewa. Nga ac sukelosla nufon, mweyen faclu sessesla ke orekma koluk lalos.
Then God said to Noah, “The end of all living creatures has come before Me, because through them the earth is full of violence. Now behold, I will destroy both them and the earth.
14 Musaela soko oak ah okom ke sak na wowo. Orala kutu fukil an loac, ac sroalela acn loac ac acn lik ke tar.
Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood; make rooms in the ark and coat it with pitch inside and out.
15 Oru in fit angfoko lumngaul lusa, fit itngoul limekosr sralapa, ac fit angngaul limekosr fulata.
And this is how you are to build it: The ark is to be 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high.
16 Sunya oak uh, ac likiya sie masrol ma inch singoul oalkosr inmasrlon susu sacn ac sisken oak uh. Musai tuh in oasr twek tolu ac orala sie srungul an ke siska uh.
You are to make a roof for the ark, finish its walls a cubit from the top, place a door in the side of the ark, and build lower, middle, and upper decks.
17 Nga ac supwama sie sronot ah nu faclu in kunausla ma nukewa ma oasr moul la. Ma nukewa fin faclu ac fah misa,
And behold, I will bring floodwaters upon the earth to destroy every creature under the heavens that has the breath of life. Everything on the earth will perish.
18 tusruktu nga ac orala sie wuleang inmasrlok kom. Utyak nu in oak uh wi mutan kiom, wen nutum, ac mutan kialos.
But I will establish My covenant with you, and you will enter the ark—you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you.
19 Kom fah use kais lukwa ke kain in ma orakrak nukewa nu in oak uh, mukul se mutan se, in wi kom moulla.
And you are to bring two of every living creature into the ark—male and female—to keep them alive with you.
20 Nu ke ip lun won uh, in fal nu ke kain in won, ac nu ke kosro uh, in fal nu ke kain in kosro, ke ma orakrak nukewa in fohk uh, in fal nu ke kain in lumah — kais luo ke kain nukewa fah utyak nu yurum tuh elos fah moul.
Two of every kind of bird and animal and crawling creature will come to you to be kept alive.
21 Us kain in mwe mongo nukewa in wi kom, ma ac fal nu sum ac nu selos.”
You are also to take for yourself every kind of food that is eaten and gather it as food for yourselves and for the animals.”
22 Noah el oru ma nukewa ma God El sapkin.
So Noah did everything precisely as God had commanded him.
The World is Destroyed by Water
