Mwanzo 6
1 Ikawa wakati watu walipoanza kuongezeka juu ya uso wa nchi na wana wa kike wakazaliwa kwao,
And it came to passe wha men bega to multiplye apo the erth ad had begot them doughters
2 wana wa Mungu walipoona kuwa mabinti wa wanadamu ni wenye kuvutia. waliwachukua kuwa wake zao, kila waliye mchagua.
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 Yahwe akaema, “roho yangu haitasalia kwa mwanadamu milele, kwa kuwa wao ni nyama. Wataishi miaka 120.”
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 Majitu makubwa yalikuwa juu ya uso wa nchi nyakati hizo, na hata baada ya hapo. Hii ilitokea wakati wana wa Mungu walipowaoa binti za wanadamu, na kupata watoto pamoja nao. Hawa walikuwa watu hodari zamani, watu wenye sifa.
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 Yahwe akaona kwamba uovu wa watu umezidi katika nchi, na kwamba mawazo ya mioyo yao daima inaelekea tu katika uovu.
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 Yahwe akajuta kuwa amemuumba mwanadamu juu ya nchi, na ikamuhuzunisha moyo wake.
he repented that he had made man apon the erth and sorowed in his hert.
7 Kwa hiyo Yahwe akasema, “Nitamfutilia mbali mwanadamu ambaye nimemuumba katika uso wa nchi; mwanadamu na wanyama wakubwa, na vitambaavyo na ndege wa angani, kwa kuwa nimehuzunika kuwa nimeviumba.”
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 Lakini Nuhu akapata neema ya upendeleo machoni pa Yahwe.
But yet Noe found grace in the syghte of the LORde.
9 Kulikuwa na matukio kumuhusu Nuhu. Nuhu alikuwa mtu mwenye haki, na asiye na lawama miongoni mwa watu wa kipindi chake. Nuhu alitembea na Mungu.
These are the generatios of Noe. Noe was a righteous man and vncorrupte in his tyme and walked wyth god.
10 Nuhu akafanyika baba wa wana watatu wa kiume: Shem, Ham na Yafeti.
And Noe begat. iij. sonnes: Sem Ham and Iapheth.
11 Nchi iliharibika mbele za Mungu, na ikajaa ghasia.
And the erth was corrupte in the syghte of god and was full of mischefe.
12 Mungu akaiona nchi; tazama, ilikuwa imeharibika, kwa kuwa wote wenye mwili walikuwa wameharibu njia zao juu ya nchi.
And God loked vpon the erth ad loo it was corrupte: for all flesh had corrupte his way vppon the erth.
13 Mungu akamwambia Nuhu, “Nimeona kuwa sasa niwakati wa mwisho kwa wote wenye mwili, kwa kuwa inchi imejaa ghasia kutokana na wao. Hakika, nitawaharibu wao pamoja na nchi.
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 Tengeneza safina ya mti wa mvinje kwa ajili yako. Tengeneza vyumba katika safina, na vifunike kwa lami ndani na nje.
Make the an arcke of pyne tree and make chaumbers in the arcke and pytch it wythin and wythout wyth pytch.
15 Hivi ndivyo utakavyofanya: urefu wa safina dhiraa miatatu, upana wake dhiraa hamsini, kwenda juu kwake dhiraa thelathini.
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 Tengeneza paa la safina, na ulimalize kwa kipimo cha dhiraa kutoka juu ubavuni. Weka mlango katika ubavu wa safina na utengeneze dari ya chini, ya pili na ya tatu.
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 Sikiliza, nimekaribia kuleta gharika ya maji juu ya nchi, kuharibu wenye mwili wote wakaao ndani ya nchi wenye pumzi ya uhai chini ya mbingu. Kila kitu kilichopo juu ya nchi kitakufa.
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 Lakini nitalifanya thabiti agano langu na wewe. Utaingia ndani ya safina, wewe, na wana wako wa kiume, na mke wako, pamoja na wake za wanao.
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 Kwa kila kiumbe hai chenye mwili, viwili vya kila aina utavileta ndani ya safina, ili visalie hai pamoja nawe, vya kike na vya kiume.
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 Katika ndege kwa jinsi yake, na wanyama wakubwa kwa jinsi yake, kila kitambaacho ardhini kwa jinsi yake, viwili viwili vya kila aina vitakuja kwako ili viwe salama.
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 Kusanya kila aina ya chakula kinacholiwa kwa ajili yako na ukitunze, ili kwamba viwe chakula chako na chao.”
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 Kwa hiyo Nuhu akafanya hivi. kulingana na yote ambayo Mungu alimuagiza, ndivyo alifanya.
and Noe dyd acordynge to all that God commaunded hym.
The World is Destroyed by Water
