< UGenesisi 6 >

1 Kwasekusithi abantu sebeqala ukwanda ebusweni bomhlaba, basebezalelwa amadodakazi,
And it came to passe wha men bega to multiplye apo the erth ad had begot them doughters
2 amadodana kaNkulunkulu ebona amadodakazi abantu ukuthi wona ayemahle; asezithathela abafazi kuwo wonke awakhethayo.
the sonnes of God sawe the doughters of men that they were fayre and toke vnto them wyves which they best liked amoge the all.
3 INkosi yasisithi: UMoya wami kawuyikulwisana lomuntu njalonjalo, ngoba laye eyinyama; kodwa izinsuku zakhe zizakuba yiminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amabili.
And the LORd sayd: My spirite shall not allwaye stryve withe man for they are flesh. Nevertheles I wyll geue them yet space and hundred and. xx. yeres
4 Iziqhwaga zazisemhlabeni ngalezonsuku; lemva kwalokho-ke, lapho amadodana kaNkulunkulu esengenile emadodakazini abantu, asewazalela abantwana. Wona ayengamaqhawe asendulo, engamadoda alebizo.
There were tirantes in the world in thos dayes. For after that the children of God had gone in vnto the doughters of men and had begotten them childern the same childern were the mightiest of the world and men of renowne
5 INkosi yasibona ukuthi ububi bomuntu bukhulu emhlabeni, lokuthi konke ukuceba kwemicabango yenhliziyo yakhe kwakukubi kuphela usuku lonke.
And whan the LORde sawe yt the wekednesse of man was encreased apon the erth and that all the ymaginacion and toughtes of his hert was only evell continually
6 INkosi yasizisola ngokuthi yayimenzile umuntu emhlabeni, yasidabuka enhliziyweni yayo.
he repented that he had made man apon the erth and sorowed in his hert.
7 INkosi yasisithi: Ngizamchitha umuntu engamdalayo ngimsuse ebusweni bomhlaba, kusukela emuntwini kusiya enyamazaneni, kuze kube kokuhuquzelayo, lenyonini zamazulu; ngoba ngiyazisola ukuthi ngikwenzile.
And sayd: I wyll destroy mankynde which I haue made fro of the face of the erth: both man beast worme and foule of the ayre for it repeteth me that I haue made them.
8 Kodwa uNowa wazuza umusa emehlweni eNkosi.
But yet Noe found grace in the syghte of the LORde.
9 Lezi yizizukulwana zikaNowa. UNowa wayeyindoda elungileyo epheleleyo esizukulwaneni sakhe; uNowa wahamba loNkulunkulu.
These are the generatios of Noe. Noe was a righteous man and vncorrupte in his tyme and walked wyth god.
10 UNowa wasezala amadodana amathathu, uShemu, uHamu loJafethi.
And Noe begat. iij. sonnes: Sem Ham and Iapheth.
11 Umhlaba wonakaliswa-ke phambi kukaNkulunkulu, lomhlaba wagcwaliswa ngobudlwangudlwangu.
And the erth was corrupte in the syghte of god and was full of mischefe.
12 UNkulunkulu wasebona umhlaba, khangela-ke wonakalisiwe, ngoba yonke inyama yonakalise indlela yayo emhlabeni.
And God loked vpon the erth ad loo it was corrupte: for all flesh had corrupte his way vppon the erth.
13 UNkulunkulu wasesithi kuNowa: Ukuphela kwayo yonke inyama sekuze phambi kwami, ngoba umhlaba ugcwele ubudlwangudlwangu ngenxa yabo; khangela-ke, ngizabachitha kanye lomhlaba.
Than sayd God to Noe: the end of all flesh is come before me for the erth is full of there myschefe. And loo I wyll destroy them with the erth.
14 Zakhele umkhumbi ngezigodo zegofere, wenze izigaba phakathi komkhumbi, uwuhuqe ngengcino ngaphakathi langaphandle.
Make the an arcke of pyne tree and make chaumbers in the arcke and pytch it wythin and wythout wyth pytch.
15 Nansi indlela ozawenza ngayo; ingalo ezingamakhulu amathathu yibude bomkhumbi, ingalo ezingamatshumi amahlanu yibubanzi bawo, ingalo ezingamatshumi amathathu yikuphakama kwawo.
And of this facion shalt thou make it. The lenth of the arcke shall be. iij. hundred cubytes ad the bredth of it. l. cubytes and the heyth of it. xxx. cubytes.
16 Iwindi uzalenza emkhunjini, uliqede libe yingalo kusukela phezulu, ufake umnyango womkhumbi ehlangothini lwawo, uwenze ube lesitezi esaphansi, esesibili, lesesithathu.
A wyndow shalt thou make aboue in the arcke. And wythin a cubyte compasse shalt thou finysh it. And the dore of the arcke shalt thou sette in ye syde of it: and thou shalt make it with. iij loftes one aboue an other.
17 Mina-ke, khangela, ngizakwehlisela uzamcolo wamanzi phezu komhlaba, ukuchitha yonke inyama, okukuyo umoya wempilo, isuke ngaphansi kwamazulu. Konke okusemhlabeni kuzaphela.
For behold I wil bringe in a floud of water apon the erth to destroy all flesh from vnder heaven wherin breth of life is so that all that is in the erth shall perish.
18 Kodwa ngizamisa isivumelwano sami lawe; njalo uzangena emkhunjini, wena lamadodana akho lomkakho labafazi bamadodana akho kanye lawe.
But I will make myne apoyntement with the that both thou shalt come in to ye arcke and thy sonnes thy wyfe and thy sonnes wyves with the.
19 Lakukho konke okuphilayo, kuyo yonke inyama, okubili kwakho konke, uzakuletha emkhunjini, ukulondoloze kuphila lawe, kuzakuba ngokuduna lokusikazi;
And of all that lyveth what soever flesh it be shalt thou brynge in to the arcke of every thynge a payre to kepe them a lyve wyth the. And male and female
20 enyonini ngohlobo lwayo, lesifuyweni ngohlobo lwaso, lakukho konke okuhuquzelayo komhlaba ngohlobo lwakho, okubili kwakho kuzakuza kuwe, ukulondoloze kuphila.
se that they be of byrdes in their kynde and of beastes in their kynde and of all maner of wormes of the erth in their kinde: a payre of every thinge shall come vnto the to kepe them a lyve.
21 Lawe-ke, zithathele kukho konke ukudla okudliwayo, njalo ukubuthelele kuwe, futhi kuzakuba ngokwakho lokwazo okokudla.
And take vnto the of all maner of meate yt may be eaten and laye it vp in stoore by the that it may be meate both for ye and for the:
22 Wasekwenza uNowa; njengakho konke uNkulunkulu ayemlaye khona wenza njalo.
and Noe dyd acordynge to all that God commaunded hym.
