1 Kwathi abantu sebesanda ngobunengi emhlabeni, bezala amadodakazi,
Veamo'za ama mopafina vahera kase hakare hazageno, knare'nare mofa'nerami fore hu'naze.
2 amadodana kaNkulunkulu abona ukuthi amadodakazi abantu ayemahle, bazikhethela abawafunayo bawathatha.
Hanki vahe'mo'za rama'a mofane zaga kasezmantage'za, Anumzamofo mofavre naga'mo'za ke zamasane nehu'za zamavesia a'ne eri'naze.
3 UThixo wasesithi, “UMoya wami kawuyikuphikisana lomuntu ngokungapheliyo, ngoba yena ngowenyama nje; insuku zakhe zizakuba likhulu elilamatshumi amabili kuphela.”
Ana hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Avamunimo'a vahe'mofompina mani'neno zamasimura zami vava osugahie. Na'ankure vahera fri'zaga mani'nazanki'za, 120'a zagegafua agateore'neza frigahaze.
4 AmaNefilimi ayesemhlabeni ngalezonsuku. Njalo langemva kwazo amadodana kaNkulunkulu angenela amadodakazi abantu azala lawo abantwana. Ayengamaqhawe ekadeni, amadoda odumo.
Ana knafine henka'anena tusinasi vahe'mo'za ama mopafina mani'nazankino, Anumzamofo mofavremo'za e'za vahe'mokizmi mofane zagane emasageno mofavrea kasezmante'naze. Hanki'za fore'ma hazana korapa knafina hankavenentake hu'za hihamu'ane vahe fore hu'naze.
5 UThixo wabona ukuthi ukuxhwala kwabantu kwasekukukhulu kakhulu emhlabeni, njalo lokuthi zonke izinkanuko zeminakano yezinhliziyo zabo zaziyibubi kuphela sonke isikhathi.
Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'ma vahe'mokizmima zamage'neana, mika kna havi avu'avazamo ama mopafina ra huno vahe'mofo antahi antahifina, havi avu ava'zamo aviteno meno vu'ne.
6 UThixo wadabuka ngokuthi wayemenzile umuntu emhlabeni, ngakho inhliziyo yakhe yagcwala ubuhlungu.
E'ina nehazageno Anumzamo'a nezamageno rimpa haviza higeno muse osuno, nahige'na vahera trohu'noe huno asunke nehuno,
7 Ngakho uThixo wasesithi, “Umuntu engamdalayo ngizamkhucula emhlabeni, abantu lezinyamazana, lezinanakazana ezihuquzela emhlabathini, lezinyoni zemkhathini ngoba kuyangidabukisa ukuthi ngakwenza.”
Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Vahe'ene, zagagafane, namaramine, mopafi ne'onse zagarami'nena zamahe fanane hugahue. Nagrama tro'ma huzmante'noa zankura nasunku hue hu'ne.
8 Kodwa uNowa wathola umusa emehlweni kaThixo.
Hianagi Noa'a agrake Ra Anumzamofo avurera fatgo nera mani'negeno muse hunte'ne.
9 Lo ngumlando kaNowa. UNowa wayeyindoda elungileyo, engelasici phakathi kwabantu ngesikhathi aphila ngaso, njalo wabambelela kuNkulunkulu.
Hagi Noa nagamofo nanekea amanahu me'ne. Ana knafima mani'naza vahepina Noa'a fatgo huno hazenke'zama'a omanegeno Anumzane tragoteno mani'neno amage anteno vu'ne.
10 UNowa wayelamadodana amathathu: UShemu, uHamu loJafethi.
Noa'a ne' mofavre tagufa zamanteno zamagi'a Semi'e, Hamu'e, Jafeti'e huno antezmi'ne.
11 Umhlaba wawuxhwalile phambi kukaNkulunkulu njalo ugcwele ubudlwangudlwangu.
Ama mopamo'a Anumzamofo avurera haviza hu'ne, ha' zamo'ene, kefo avu'avazamo enena avite'ne.
12 UNkulunkulu wabona ukuthi umhlaba wawusuxhwale njani, ngoba bonke abantu emhlabeni basebehamba ngezindlela zabo ezixhwalileyo.
Anumzamo'ma ama mopafima ke'neana, tamage huno makazamo'a haviza hu'ne, ama mopafima me'neazama keana kumike'za huvagare'naze.
13 Ngakho uNkulunkulu wasesithi kuNowa, “Ngizabatshabalalisa bonke abantu, ngoba umhlaba ugcwele ubudlwangudlwangu ngenxa yabo. Ngeqiniso ngizababhubhisa bona kanye lomhlaba.
Hagi Anumzamo'a anage huno Noana asmi'ne, Ke ontahizageno kefo avu'ava zamo'a aviteankina zamagri'ene mopazimine zamahe fanane huku Nagra nagesa nentahue.
14 Ngakho zakhele umkhumbi ngezigodo zesihlahla sokubaza; wenze amakamelo kuwo, uwuhuqe ngenhlaka ngaphakathi langaphandle.
Hagi kagra hanave zafareti ra ventea tro nehunka, asa hutanenka hunaraginto. Timo'ma ufre'zankura agu'ane megi'anena fukinu renkaniro.
15 Uzawakha kanje: Umkhumbi kawube ngamalunga ezingalo ezingamakhulu amathathu ubude, ububanzi bube zingalo ezingamatshumi amahlanu lezingalo ezingamatshumi amathathu ukuphakama kwawo.
Ana ventema kisanana, zanra'a 150'a mitagi, kahesa'a 25 mitagi, atrure'a 15 mitagi hunka neginka,
16 Uwenzele uphahla, utshiye ngaphansi kophahla intuba eyingxenye yelunga lengalo ukufika phezulu. Ufake umnyango eceleni komkhumbi njalo wenze isigcawu saphansi, esaphakathi laphakathi kanye lesaphezulu.
anagamu no amumpa tvaonte mago mitamofona agema'a hafu'a mita zasikana hagento. Magokaziga kaha hagentenka, ana ventemofo agu'afina ese nonki, anante nonki, agofetu nonki hunka kio.
17 Ngizathumela uzamcolo emhlabeni ukubhubhisa konke okuphilayo ngaphansi kwezulu, zonke izidalwa eziphefumulayo. Yonke into emhlabeni izabhubha.
Hagi Nagra ha'nenkeno tusi'a ti hageno mopa refitena mani'ne'za zamasimu nentaza zane, maka'zanena zamahe fanane hugahue.
18 Kodwa ngizakwenza isivumelwano lawe, njalo wena uzangena emkhunjini, wena lamadodana akho lomkakho kanye labomalukazana bakho.
Hu'neanagi kagrane huhagerafinugu huvempa hu'na negasamue. Kagrane a'mofavre ka'ane knoferahe'zane tamagra maka ventefi marerigahaze.
19 Kuzamele ulethe emkhunjini okubili kwezidalwa zonke eziphilayo, okuduna lokusikazi, uzigcine ziphila zilawe.
Hagi rumofo rumofo zagagafama mani'nazafintira vene, a'ene zamavaretere huge'za kahefa hu'za mani'sagu ventefi mareriho.
20 Okubili kwemihlobo yonke yezinyoni, okwemihlobo yonke yezinyamazana lokwezinanakazana zonke ezihuquzela emhlabathini zizakuza kuwe zizogcinwa ziphila.
Zgagafama nama, rumofo rumofo kumate zagane, mopafi ne'onse zagarmine, vene a'ene kasefa hu'za manisnagu kagrite egahaze.
21 Kumele uthathe yonke imihlobo yokudla okuzadliwa, ukulondolozele wena kanye lazo.”
Ana nehunka aru ne'za aru ne'zana, tamagrane maka zagagafanema nesazazana erinka eme eritru huo.
22 UNowa wakwenza konke njengokulaywa kwakhe nguNkulunkulu.
Higeno Anumzamo'ma asmi'neaza huno Noa'a maka'zana tro hu'ne.
