Uumama 6
1 Yeroo namoonni biyya lafaa irratti baayʼachuu jalqabanii intallan dhalataniifitti,
And after a time, when men were increasing on the earth, and had daughters,
2 Ilmaan Waaqaa akka intallan namootaa babbareedoo taʼan argan; isaan keessaas abbuma filatan fuudhan.
The sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took wives for themselves from those who were pleasing to them.
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 the Lord said, My spirit will not be in man for ever, for he is only flesh; so the days of his life will 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.
There were men of great strength and size on the earth in those days; and after that, when the sons of God had connection with the daughters of men, they gave birth to children: these were the great men of old days, the men of great name.
5 Waaqayyos akka jalʼinni namaa lafa irratti baayʼatee, wanni namni yeroo hunda garaa isaatti yaadu hundinuus jalʼaa qofa taʼe arge.
And the Lord saw that the sin of man was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts of his heart were evil.
6 Waaqayyos waan lafa irratti nama uumeef ni gaabbe; garaan isaas ni gadde.
And the Lord had sorrow because he had made man on the earth, and grief was 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 the Lord said, I will take away man, whom I have made, from the face of the earth, even man and beast and that which goes on the earth and every bird of the air; for I have sorrow for having made them.
8 Nohi garuu fuula Waaqayyoo duratti surraa argate.
But Noah had grace in the eyes of God.
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 an upright man and without sin in his generation: he went in the ways of God.
10 Nohi ilmaan sadii dhalche; isaanis: Seem, Haamii fi Yaafet.
And Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Lafti fuula Waaqaa duratti faalamtee jeequmsaan guutamte turte.
And the earth was evil in God's eyes and full of violent ways.
12 Sababii namoonni lafa irraa hundinuu karaa isaanii faalaniif, Waaqni akka lafti faalamte arge.
And God, looking on the earth, saw that it was evil: for the way of all flesh had become evil on 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; the earth is full of their violent doings, and now I will put an end to them with the earth.
14 Ati muka Goofar irraa doonii tolfadhu; keessa isaattis kutaa garaa garaa qopheessi; keessaa fi duuba isaas hapheedhaan duuchi.
Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood with rooms in it, and make it safe from the water inside and out.
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 the way you are to make it: it is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high.
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.
You are to put a window in the ark, a cubit from the roof, and a door in the side of it, and you are to make it with a lower and second and third floors.
17 Kunoo, ani uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii hunda samii jalaa balleessuuf bishaan badiisaa lafatti nan fida; wanni lafa irra jiraatu hundinuus ni bada.
For truly, I will send a great flow of waters over the earth, for the destruction from under the heaven of all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything on the earth will come to an end.
18 Si wajjin garuu kakuu nan gala; atis doonii seenta; atii fi ilmaan kee, niitiin keetii fi niitonni ilmaan keetiis ni seentu.
But with you I will make an agreement; and you will come into the ark, you and your sons and your wife and your sons' wives with you.
19 Uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii hundumaa keessaa akka isaan si wajjin jiraataniif lama lama, kormaa fi dhalaa doonichatti galchi.
And you will take with you into the ark two of every sort of living thing, and keep them safe with you; they will 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.
Two of every sort of bird and cattle and of every sort of living thing which goes on the earth will you take with you to keep them from destruction.
21 Waan nyaatamu hunda keessaa waa fuudhii of biratti walitti qabi! Kunis nyaata keetii fi nyaata isaanii ni taʼa.”
And make a store of every sort of food for yourself and them.
22 Nohi akkuma Waaqni isa ajajetti waan hunda hojjete.
And all these things Noah did; as God said, so he did.
The World is Destroyed by Water
