< 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 unto 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 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 the LORD said, My spirit shall not strive with man for ever, for that he also is flesh: yet shall his days be an 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 Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them: the same were the mighty men which 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 the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in 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 it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at 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 destroy man whom I have created from the face of the ground; both man, and beast, and creeping thing, and fowl of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
8 Nohi garuu fuula Waaqayyoo duratti surraa argate.
But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
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, [and] perfect in his generations: Noah walked with God.
10 Nohi ilmaan sadii dhalche; isaanis: Seem, Haamii fi Yaafet.
And Noah begat 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 his 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 unto Noah, The end of all flesh is 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; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without 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 shalt 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.
A light shalt thou make to the ark, and to a cubit shalt thou finish it upward; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou 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 do bring the flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; every thing that is in 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 shalt 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 shalt thou 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 fowl after their kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort shall come unto 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 unto 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 did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
