UGenesisi 8
1 UNkulunkulu wasemkhumbula uNowa, lakho konke okuphilayo, laso sonke isifuyo, esasilaye emkhunjini. UNkulunkulu wavunguzisa umoya phezu komhlaba, lamanzi etsha.
Waaqni garuu Nohin, bineensotaa fi horii isa wajjin doonii keessa turan hunda yaadate. Innis bubbee lafatti erge; bishaanichis gad gale.
2 Kwasekumiswa imithombo yokujula lamasango empophoma zamazulu, lezulu elivela emazulwini lanqandwa.
Burqaawwan tuujubawwaniitii fi foddaawwan samiiwwanii ni cufaman; bokkaan samii keessaa gad roobus ni caame.
3 Lamanzi etsha esuka emhlabeni, ehamba ebuyela; amanzi asencipha ekupheleni kwensuku ezilikhulu lamatshumi amahlanu.
Bishaan sunis suutuma suuta lafa irraa hirʼachaa deemee dhuma bultii dhibba tokkoo fi shantamaatti gad buʼe.
4 Umkhumbi wasuhlala ngenyanga yesikhombisa, ngosuku lwetshumi lesikhombisa lwenyanga, phezu kwezintaba zeArarathi.
Dooniin sunis guyyaa kudha torbaffaa jiʼa torbaffaatti tulluu Araaraati gubbaa qubate.
5 Lamanzi aya esetsha kwaze kwaba senyangeni yetshumi; ngeyetshumi ngosuku lokuqala lwenyanga kwabonakala ingqonga zezintaba.
Bishaanichi hamma jiʼa kurnaffaatti gaduma galaa deeme. Guyyaa jalqaba jiʼa kurnaffaattis mataawwan tulluuwwanii mulʼatan.
6 Kwasekusithi ekupheleni kwensuku ezingamatshumi amane, uNowa wasevula iwindi lomkhumbi ayelenzile,
Guyyaa afurtama booddee Nohi foddaa dooniitti baasee ture sana bane;
7 wasethuma iwabayi, lazulazula njalo, aze atsha amanzi emhlabeni.
innis arraagessa tokko gad dhiise; arraagessi sunis hamma bishaanichi lafa irraa gogutti asii fi achi deddeebiʼaa ture.
8 Wasethuma ijuba lisuka kuye, ukubona ukuthi amanzi asemalutshwana yini ebusweni bomhlaba;
Ergasii immoo akka bishaanichi lafa irraa hirʼate hubachuuf gugee tokko erge.
9 kodwa ijuba kalitholanga indawo yokuphumula kwengaphansi yonyawo lwalo, ngakho labuyela kuye emkhunjini, ngoba amanzi ayekhona ebusweni bomhlaba wonke. Waseselula isandla sakhe, walithatha, walingenisa 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 Waselinda futhi ezinye izinsuku eziyisikhombisa; wasephinda elithuma ijuba lisuka emkhunjini.
Ammas guyyaa torba turee gugee sana doonii keessaa gad baasee erge.
11 Ijuba laselibuya kuye ngesikhathi santambama, khangela-ke, ihlamvu lomhlwathi elisanda ukuquntwa lalisemlonyeni walo; ngakho uNowa wasesazi ukuthi amanzi asemalutshwana phezu komhlaba.
Gugeen sunis galgala yommuu gara isaatti deebitetti kunoo, baala ejersaa kan amma kutame afaanitti qabattee turte. Kanaanis Nohi akka bishaanichi gad hirʼate beeke.
12 Waselinda futhi ezinye insuku eziyisikhombisa; waselithuma ijuba; kalabe lisabuyela kuye futhi.
Ammas guyyaa biraa torba turee gugee sana deebisee erge; gugeen sun garuu lammata gara isaatti hin deebine.
13 Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wamakhulu ayisithupha lanye, ngenyanga yokuqala, ngolokuqala lwenyanga, amanzi atsha emhlabeni. UNowa wasesusa isifulelo somkhumbi, wabona, khangela-ke, ubuso bomhlaba babomile.
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 Njalo ngenyanga yesibili, ngosuku lwamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa lwenyanga, umhlaba wawusuwomile.
Guyyaa digdamii torbaffaa jiʼa lammaffaatti lafti guutummaan guutuutti gogde.
15 UNkulunkulu wasekhuluma kuNowa, esithi:
Waaqnis Nohiin akkana jedhe;
16 Phuma emkhunjini, wena lomkakho lamadodana akho labafazi bamadodana akho kanye lawe.
“Atii fi niitiin kee, ilmaan keetii fi niitonni ilmaan keetii kottaa doonii keessaa baʼaa.
17 Konke okuphilayo okulawe, kuyo yonke inyama, eyenyoni leyesifuyo leyakho konke okuhuquzelayo kuhuquzela emhlabeni, phuma lakho; ukuze kuzale kwande emhlabeni, kuzale, kwande phezu komhlaba.
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 UNowa wasephuma, lamadodana akhe, lomkakhe, labafazi bamadodana akhe kanye laye.
Kanaafuu Nohi ilmaan isaatii fi niitii isaa, niitota ilmaan isaa wajjin gad baʼe.
19 Yonke inyamazana, konke okuhuquzelayo, layo yonke inyoni, konke okuhamba emhlabeni, ngenhlobo zakho, kwaphuma emkhunjini.
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 waseyakhela iNkosi ilathi; wathatha kuso sonke isifuyo esihlambulukileyo, lakuyo yonke inyoni ehlambulukileyo, wanikela umnikelo wokutshiswa phezu kwelathi.
Nohis Waaqayyoof iddoo aarsaa ijaare; horii fi simbirroota qulqulluu hunda keessaa fuudhee iddoo aarsaa sana irratti aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeesse.
21 INkosi yasisizwa uqhatshi olumnandi; iNkosi yasisithi enhliziyweni yayo: Kangisayikuphinda ngiqalekise umhlaba ngenxa yomuntu, ngoba ukuceba kwenhliziyo yomuntu kubi kusukela ebutsheni bakhe; futhi kangisayikuphinda ngitshaye konke okuphilayo njengalokhu ngenzile.
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 Ngazo zonke izinsuku zomhlaba, ukuhlanyela lokuvuna, lamakhaza lokukhudumala, lehlobo lobusika, lemini lobusuku, kakuyikuphela.
“Hamma lafti jirtutti, midhaan facaasuu fi walitti qabuun, dhaamochii fi hoʼi, bonnii fi ganni, halkanii fi guyyaan gonkumaa hin hafan.”
