Uumama 6
1 Yeroo namoonni biyya lafaa irratti baayʼachuu jalqabanii intallan dhalataniifitti,
And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters were born to them,
2 Ilmaan Waaqaa akka intallan namootaa babbareedoo taʼan argan; isaan keessaas abbuma filatan fuudhan.
that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair. And they took to them wives of all that they chose.
3 Yommus Waaqayyo, “Namni waan foon taʼeef Hafuurri koo bara baraan isa keessa hin jiraatu; barri jireenya isaas waggaa dhibba tokkoo fi digdama taʼa” jedhe.
And Jehovah said, My Spirit shall not abide in man forever, for he also is flesh. Yet shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.
4 Bara sanaa fi ergasiis Nefiiliimonni lafa irra turan; ilmaan Waaqaas yommuu gara intallan namaa dhaqanitti ijoollee dhalchan. Isaanis gootota durii warra beekamoo turan.
The giants were on the earth in those days. And also after that, when the sons of God came to the daughters of men, and they bore sons to them, the same were the mighty men who were of old, the men of renown.
5 Waaqayyos akka jalʼinni namaa lafa irratti baayʼatee, wanni namni yeroo hunda garaa isaatti yaadu hundinuus jalʼaa qofa taʼe arge.
And Jehovah saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
6 Waaqayyos waan lafa irratti nama uumeef ni gaabbe; garaan isaas ni gadde.
And Jehovah regretted that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart.
7 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo, “Ani sanyii namaa kan ofii kootiin uume lafa irraa nan balleessa. Namaa fi horii, uumama lafa irra munyuuqu, simbirroota samii nan balleessa; ani isaan uumuu kootti gaabbeeraatii” jedhe.
And Jehovah said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the ground, from man, to beast, to creeping things, and birds of the heavens, for I regret that I have made them.
8 Nohi garuu fuula Waaqayyoo duratti surraa argate.
But Noah found favor in the eyes of Jehovah.
9 Seenaan Nohii fi maatii isaa kanaa dha. Nohi namoota bara isaa turan gidduutti nama qajeelaa, nama hirʼina hin qabne kan Waaqa wajjin deddeebiʼu ture.
These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God.
10 Nohi ilmaan sadii dhalche; isaanis: Seem, Haamii fi Yaafet.
And Noah begot three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Lafti fuula Waaqaa duratti faalamtee jeequmsaan guutamte turte.
And the earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12 Sababii namoonni lafa irraa hundinuu karaa isaanii faalaniif, Waaqni akka lafti faalamte arge.
And God saw the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth.
13 Kanaafuu Waaqni Nohiin akkana jedhe; “Waan lafti sababii isaaniitiin jeequmsaan guutamteef, ani nama hunda nan balleessa; kunoo ani dhugumaan lafaa fi isaan nan barbadeessa.
And God said to Noah, The end of all flesh has come before me, for the earth is filled with violence through them, and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
14 Ati muka Goofar irraa doonii tolfadhu; keessa isaattis kutaa garaa garaa qopheessi; keessaa fi duuba isaas hapheedhaan duuchi.
Make thee an ark of gopher wood. Thou shall make rooms in the ark, and shall pitch it inside and outside with pitch.
15 Haalli ati ittiin doonicha tolchitu kanaa dha; dheerina isaa dhundhuma dhibbaa sadii, balʼina isaa dhundhuma shantama, ol dheerina isaa dhundhuma soddoma godhi.
And this is how thou shall make it: The length of the ark three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
16 Doonichaaf bantii dhundhuma tokko ol kaʼu hojjedhu; cinaacha isaa irrattis balbala baasi; kanas abbaa darbii sadii jechuunis kan gadii, kan gidduutii fi kan gubbaa godhii hojjedhu.
Thou shall make a light for the ark, and thou shall finish it to a cubit upward. And thou shall set the door of the ark in the side of it, with lower, second, and third stories thou shall make it.
17 Kunoo, ani uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii hunda samii jalaa balleessuuf bishaan badiisaa lafatti nan fida; wanni lafa irra jiraatu hundinuus ni bada.
And I, behold, I bring the flood of waters upon this earth, to destroy all flesh, in which is the breath of life, from under heaven. Everything that is on the earth shall die.
18 Si wajjin garuu kakuu nan gala; atis doonii seenta; atii fi ilmaan kee, niitiin keetii fi niitonni ilmaan keetiis ni seentu.
But I will establish my covenant with thee. And thou shall come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
19 Uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii hundumaa keessaa akka isaan si wajjin jiraataniif lama lama, kormaa fi dhalaa doonichatti galchi.
And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort thou shall bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee. They shall be male and female.
20 Simbirroota keessaa akkuma gosa gosa isaaniitti, horii keessaa akkuma gosa gosa isaaniitti, uumamawwan lafa irra munyuuqan keessaas akkuma gosa gosa isaaniitti, lama lama taʼanii jiraachuuf gara kee dhufu.
Of the birds according to their kind, and of the cattle according to their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground according to its kind. Two of every sort shall come to thee, to keep them alive.
21 Waan nyaatamu hunda keessaa waa fuudhii of biratti walitti qabi! Kunis nyaata keetii fi nyaata isaanii ni taʼa.”
And take thou to thee of all food that is eaten, and gather it to thee, and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.
22 Nohi akkuma Waaqni isa ajajetti waan hunda hojjete.
Thus Noah did; according to all that God commanded him, so he did.
The World is Destroyed by Water
