UGenesisi 7
1 UThixo wathi kuNowa, “Ngena emkhunjini, wena kanye lendlu yakho yonke, ngoba ngikufumane ulungile kulesi isizukulwane.
And he said Yahweh to Noah go you and all household your into the ark for you I have seen righteous before me in the generation this.
2 Ngena lezinyamazana eziyisikhombisa ezemihlobo yonke yezinyamazana ezihlanzekileyo, enduna lensikazi, lezimbili ezemihlobo yonke yezinyamazana ezingcolileyo, enduna lensikazi yayo,
Of all - the livestock clean you will take for yourself seven seven a male and female its and of the animal[s] which not [is] clean it two a male and female its.
3 njalo eziyisikhombisa zezinyoni zemihlobo yonke, ezinduna lezinsikazi, ukuze kugcinakale uhlobo lwazo zonke emhlabeni.
Also of [the] bird[s] of the heavens seven seven male and female to preserve alive offspring on [the] surface of all the earth.
4 Ngemva kwensuku eziyisikhombisa kusukela manje ngizathumela izulu emhlabeni okwensuku ezingamatshumi amane lobusuku obungamatshumi amane, njalo ngizatshabalalisa sonke isidalwa esiphilayo engasenzayo emhlabeni.”
For to days yet seven I [am] about to bring rain on the earth forty day[s] and forty night[s] and I will wipe all the existence which I have made from on [the] surface of the ground.
5 UNowa wakwenza konke lokho akulaywa nguThixo.
And he did Noah according to all that he commanded him Yahweh.
6 UNowa wayeleminyaka engamakhulu ayisithupha yobudala ekufikeni kukazamcolo emhlabeni.
And Noah [was] a son of six hundred year[s] and the flood was water on the earth.
7 UNowa lamadodana akhe, lomkakhe kanye labomalukazana bakhe bangena emkhunjini ukuze baphephe emanzini kazamcolo.
And he went Noah and sons his and wife his and [the] wives of sons his with him into the ark because of [the] waters of the flood.
8 Ngazimbili izinyamazana ezihlanzekileyo lezingcolileyo, ezezinyoni lezezinanakazana zonke ezihuquzela emhlabathini,
Of the animal[s] clean and of the animal[s] which not [was] it clean and of the bird[s] and all that [was] creeping on the ground.
9 ezinduna lezinsikazi zeza kuNowa zangena emkhunjini, njengokulaywa kukaNowa nguNkulunkulu.
Two two they came to Noah into the ark male and female just as he had commanded God Noah.
10 Kwathi ngemva kwensuku eziyisikhombisa amanzi kazamcolo eza emhlabeni.
And it was to [the] seven the days and [the] waters of the flood they were on the earth.
11 Ngomnyaka wamakhulu ayisithupha wokuphila kukaNowa, ngosuku lwetshumi lesikhombisa lwenyanga yesibili, ngalolosuku yonke imithombo yolwandle olukhulu yadabuka, lamasango amanzi amazulu avuleka.
In year six hundred year of [the] life of Noah in the month second on [the] seven-teen day of the month on the day this they were split open all [the] springs of [the] deep great and [the] floodgates of the heavens they were opened.
12 Izulu lana emhlabeni okwensuku ezingamatshumi amane lobusuku obungamatshumi amane.
And it was the rain on the earth forty day[s] and forty night[s].
13 Ngalolosuku uNowa lamadodana akhe, uShemu, uHamu loJafethi, kanye lomkakhe labomalukazana bakhe bamadodana akhe womathathu bangena emkhunjini.
On [the] substance of the day this he went Noah and Shem and Ham and Japheth [the] sons of Noah and [the] wife of Noah and [the] three [the] wives of sons his with them into the ark.
14 Babelazo zonke izinyamazana zeganga kusiya ngemihlobo yazo, zonke izifuyo kusiya ngemihlobo yazo, zonke izinanakazana ezihuquzela emhlabathini kusiya ngemihlobo yazo lazozonke izinyoni kusiya ngemihlobo yazo, yonke into elempiko.
They and every animal to kind its and all the livestock to kind its and every creeping thing which creeps on the earth to kind its and every bird to kind its every bird every wing.
15 Zeza kuNowa ngazimbili zonke izidalwa ezilomphefumulo wokuphila zangena emkhunjini.
And they came to Noah into the ark two two of all flesh which [was] in it [the] breath of life.
16 Izinyamazana ezazingena zazingezinduna lezinsikazi ezezinto zonke eziphilayo, njengalokho uNkulunkulu ayekulaye uNowa. Emva kwalokho uThixo wasemvalela phakathi.
And those [which] came male and female of all flesh they came just as he had commanded him God and he closed Yahweh behind him.
17 Okwensuku ezingamatshumi amane impophoma zaphikelela zithululeka emhlabeni, kwathi ngokwanda kwamanzi awuphakamisa umkhumbi waba ngaphezulu komhlaba.
And it was the flood forty day[s] on the earth and they increased the waters and they lifted the ark and it rose from on the earth.
18 Amanzi akhwela anda kakhulu emhlabeni, umkhumbi wandenda phezu kwamanzi.
And they increased the waters and they increased exceedingly on the earth and it went the ark on [the] surface of the waters.
19 Akhwela kakhulu emhlabeni, kwathi zonke izintaba eziphakemeyo ngaphansi kwawo wonke amazulu zasibekelwa.
And the waters they increased exceedingly exceedingly on the earth and they were covered all the mountains high which [were] under all the heavens.
20 Amanzi akhwela asibekela izintaba zatshona okudlula izingalo ezingamatshumi amabili.
Fif-teen cubit[s] from to above they increased the waters and they were covered the mountains.
21 Zonke izinto eziphilayo ezihamba phezu komhlaba zafa, izinyoni, izifuyo, izinyamazana zeganga, zonke izidalwa ezazitshatshama phezu komhlaba, loluntu lonke.
And it died all flesh - which crept on the earth among the bird[s] and among the livestock and among the animal[s] and among every swarming thing which swarms on the earth and every human.
22 Yonke into ephefumula impilo ngamakhala ayo nxa isemhlabathini owomileyo yafa.
All that [the] breath of [the] breath of life [was] in nostrils its from all that [was] on the dry ground they died.
23 Yonke into ephilayo phezu komhlaba yakhukhulwa; abantu lezinyamazana lezinanakazana ezihuquzela emhlabathini kanye lezinyoni zemkhathini kwakhuculwa emhlabeni. NguNowa kuphela owasalayo, lalabo ababelaye emkhunjini.
And he wiped out all the existence - which - [was] on [the] surface of the ground from humankind unto animal[s] unto creeping thing[s] and unto [the] bird[s] of the heavens and they were wiped out from the earth and he was left only Noah and which [were] with him in the ark.
24 Amanzi agcwala emhlabeni okwensuku ezilikhulu lamatshumi amahlanu.
And they increased the waters on the earth fifty and one hundred day[s].
