UGenesisi 8
1 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wamkhumbula uNowa lazozonke izinyamazana zeganga lezifuyo ezazilaye emkhunjini, wasethumela umoya emhlabeni, amanzi asesentsha.
Waaqni garuu Nohin, bineensotaa fi horii isa wajjin doonii keessa turan hunda yaadate. Innis bubbee lafatti erge; bishaanichis gad gale.
2 Manje imithombo yolwandle lamasango amanzi asemazulwini kwasekuvaliwe, lezulu laselisile emkhathini.
Burqaawwan tuujubawwaniitii fi foddaawwan samiiwwanii ni cufaman; bokkaan samii keessaa gad roobus ni caame.
3 Amanzi entsha kancanekancane emhlabeni. Ekupheleni kwensuku ezilikhulu lamatshumi amahlanu amanzi ayesentshile,
Bishaan sunis suutuma suuta lafa irraa hirʼachaa deemee dhuma bultii dhibba tokkoo fi shantamaatti gad buʼe.
4 kwathi ngosuku lwetshumi lesikhombisa lwenyanga yesikhombisa umkhumbi wayakuma phezu kwezintaba zase-Ararathi.
Dooniin sunis guyyaa kudha torbaffaa jiʼa torbaffaatti tulluu Araaraati gubbaa qubate.
5 Amanzi aqhubeka esentsha kwaze kwaba yinyanga yetshumi, kwathi ngosuku lokuqala lwenyanga yetshumi iziqongo zezintaba zaqala ukubonakala.
Bishaanichi hamma jiʼa kurnaffaatti gaduma galaa deeme. Guyyaa jalqaba jiʼa kurnaffaattis mataawwan tulluuwwanii mulʼatan.
6 Ngemva kwensuku ezingamatshumi amane uNowa wavula iwindi ayelenzile emkhunjini
Guyyaa afurtama booddee Nohi foddaa dooniitti baasee ture sana bane;
7 wathuma iwabayi, lazulazula emoyeni amanzi aze atsha emhlabeni.
innis arraagessa tokko gad dhiise; arraagessi sunis hamma bishaanichi lafa irraa gogutti asii fi achi deddeebiʼaa ture.
8 Wasethuma ijuba ukuthi abone ingabe amanzi ayesephelile emhlabathini.
Ergasii immoo akka bishaanichi lafa irraa hirʼate hubachuuf gugee tokko erge.
9 Kodwa ijuba laswela indawo yokubeka unyawo ngoba kwakulamanzi yonke indawo phezu komhlaba; ngakho labuyela kuNowa emkhunjini. Wakhupha isandla walamukela ijuba walibuyisa kuye emkhunjini.
Garuu sababii bishaan lafa hunda irra guutee jiruuf gugeen sun iddoo qubatu dhabdee gara Nohi dooniitti deebite. Innis harka isaa gad hiixatee gugee sana gara dooniitti iddoo ofii jirutti ol galche.
10 Walinda okwezinye insuku eziyisikhombisa waphinda walithuma ijuba lisuka emkhunjini.
Ammas guyyaa torba turee gugee sana doonii keessaa gad baasee erge.
11 Kwathi ijuba selibuya kuye ntambama, laliphethe ngomlomo walo ihlamvu lesihlahla se-oliva elalisanda kukhiwa! UNowa wahle wazi ukuthi amanzi ayesehlile kakhulu emhlabeni.
Gugeen sunis galgala yommuu gara isaatti deebitetti kunoo, baala ejersaa kan amma kutame afaanitti qabattee turte. Kanaanis Nohi akka bishaanichi gad hirʼate beeke.
12 Walinda okwezinye insuku eziyisikhombisa walithuma ijuba njalo, kodwa ngalesi isikhathi kalisabuyanga kuye.
Ammas guyyaa biraa torba turee gugee sana deebisee erge; gugeen sun garuu lammata gara isaatti hin deebine.
13 Ngosuku lokuqala lwenyanga yokuqala yomnyaka wamakhulu ayisithupha lanye wokuphila kukaNowa, amanzi ayesomile emhlabeni. Ngakho uNowa wasesusa uphahla lomkhumbi esebona ukuthi iphansi lomhlabathi laselomile.
Umurii Nohii waggaa dhibba jaʼaa fi tokkoffaatti, guyyaa tokkoffaa jiʼa jalqabaatti, bishaanichi lafa irraa goge. Nohis qadaada doonii sanaa irraa fuudhee ilaalee kunoo akka lafti gogde arge.
14 Ngosuku lwamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa lwenyanga yesibili umhlabathi wawusuwome qha.
Guyyaa digdamii torbaffaa jiʼa lammaffaatti lafti guutummaan guutuutti gogde.
15 UNkulunkulu wasesithi kuNowa,
Waaqnis Nohiin akkana jedhe;
16 “Phuma emkhunjini, wena lomkakho, lamadodana akho labomkabo.
“Atii fi niitiin kee, ilmaan keetii fi niitonni ilmaan keetii kottaa doonii keessaa baʼaa.
17 Khupha yonke into ephilayo olayo, izinyoni, izinyamazana lazozonke izinanakazana ezihuquzela emhlabathini ukuze zande emhlabeni, zizale zande ngobunengi bazo.”
Akka isaan lafa irratti baayʼataniif, akka isaan horanii lafa irratti baayʼataniif, gosa uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii si wajjin jiran hunda jechuunis simbirroota, bineensotaa fi uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan hunda gad baasi.”
18 Ngakho uNowa wasephuma lamadodana akhe, lomkakhe kanye labomalukazana bakhe.
Kanaafuu Nohi ilmaan isaatii fi niitii isaa, niitota ilmaan isaa wajjin gad baʼe.
19 Zonke izinyamazana kanye lezinanakazana ezihuquzela emhlabathini lazozonke izinyoni, yonke into enyakazayo emhlabeni, kwaphuma emkhunjini, ngemihlobo kulandelana.
Bineensonni hundii fi uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan hundinuu, simbirroonni hundi jechuunis wanni lafa irra jiraatu hundi gosuma gosaan doonii sana keessaa gad baʼan.
20 UNowa wasesakhela uThixo i-alithari, wathatha ezinye izinyamazana lezinyoni ezihlanzekileyo wanikela iminikelo yokutshiswa phezu kwalo.
Nohis Waaqayyoof iddoo aarsaa ijaare; horii fi simbirroota qulqulluu hunda keessaa fuudhee iddoo aarsaa sana irratti aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeesse.
21 UThixo wahotsha iphunga elimnandi wathi enhliziyweni yakhe: “Kangisayikuphinda ngiwuqalekise njalo umhlaba ngenxa yabantu, ngoba imicabango yenhliziyo yomuntu mibi kusukela ebuntwaneni bakhe. Njalo kangisoze lanini ngiphinde ngibhubhise zonke izidalwa eziphilayo, njengalokhu engikwenzileyo.
Waaqayyos foolii tolaa sana urgeeffatee garaa isaa keessatti akkana jedhe; “Yoo wanni namni ijoollummaa isaatii jalqabee garaa isaatti yaadu hammina taʼe illee ani sababii namaatiif jedhee lammata lafa hin abaaru. Ani akkan kanaan dura godhe sana deebiʼee uumamawwan jiraatoo hunda hin balleessu.
22 Nxa umhlaba ulokhu usekhona, isikhathi sokuhlanyela lesokuvuna, umqando lokutshisa, ihlobo lobusika, imini lobusuku kakusoze kwacina.”
“Hamma lafti jirtutti, midhaan facaasuu fi walitti qabuun, dhaamochii fi hoʼi, bonnii fi ganni, halkanii fi guyyaan gonkumaa hin hafan.”
