Genesis 6
1 Nígbà tí ènìyàn bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní pọ̀ si ní orí ilẹ̀, wọ́n sí bí àwọn ọmọbìnrin.
And Noe was five hundred years old, and he begot three sons, Sem, Cham, and Japheth. And it came to pass when men began to be numerous upon the earth, and daughters were born to them,
2 Àwọn ọmọ Ọlọ́run rí i wí pé àwọn ọmọbìnrin ènìyàn lẹ́wà, wọ́n sì fẹ́ èyíkéyìí tí ó wù wọ́n ṣe aya.
that the sons of God having seen the daughters of men that they were beautiful, took to themselves wives of all whom they chose.
3 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí pé, “Èémí ìyè tí mo mí sínú ènìyàn kò ní máa gbé inú ènìyàn títí láé, nítorí ẹran-ara sá à ni òun, ọgọ́fà ọdún ni ọjọ́ rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́.”
And the Lord God said, My Spirit shall certainly not remain amongst these men for ever, because they are flesh, but their days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
4 Àwọn òmíràn wà láyé ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, àti lẹ́yìn ìgbà náà; nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ Ọlọ́run lọ bá àwọn ọmọbìnrin ènìyàn lòpọ̀ tí wọ́n sì bímọ fún wọn. Àwọn náà ni ó di akọni àti olókìkí ìgbà náà.
Now the giants were upon the earth in those days; and after that when the sons of God were wont to go in to the daughters of men, they bore [children] to them, those were the giants of old, the men of renown.
5 Olúwa sì rí bí ìwà búburú ènìyàn ti ń gbilẹ̀ si, àti pé gbogbo èrò inú rẹ̀ kìkì ibi ni, ní ìgbà gbogbo.
And the Lord God, having seen that the wicked actions of men were multiplied upon the earth, and that every one in his heart was intently brooding over evil continually,
6 Inú Olúwa sì bàjẹ́ gidigidi nítorí pé ó dá ènìyàn sí ayé, ọkàn rẹ̀ sì gbọgbẹ́.
then God laid it to heart that he had made man upon the earth, and he pondered [it] deeply.
7 Nítorí náà, Olúwa wí pé, “Èmi yóò pa ènìyàn tí mo ti dá run kúrò lórí ilẹ̀, ènìyàn àti ẹranko, àti ohun tí ń rákò, àti ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run, nítorí inú mi bàjẹ́ pé mo ti dá wọn.”
And God said, I will blot out man whom I have made from the face of the earth, even man with cattle, and reptiles with flying creatures of the sky, for I am grieved that I have made them.
8 Ṣùgbọ́n, Noa rí ojúrere Olúwa.
But Noe found grace before the Lord God.
9 Wọ̀nyí ni ìtàn Noa. Noa nìkan ni ó jẹ́ olóòótọ́ ènìyàn àti ẹni tí ó pé ní ìgbà ayé rẹ̀, ó sì fi òtítọ́ bá Ọlọ́run rìn.
And these [are] the generations of Noe. Noe was a just man; being perfect in his generation, Noe was well-pleasing to God.
10 Noa sì bí ọmọkùnrin mẹ́ta, Ṣemu, Hamu àti Jafeti.
And Noe begot three sons, Sem, Cham, Japheth.
11 Ayé sì kún fún ìbàjẹ́ gidigidi ní ojú Ọlọ́run, ó sì kún fún ìwà ipá pẹ̀lú.
But the earth was corrupted before God, and the earth was filled with iniquity.
12 Ọlọ́run sì rí bí ayé ti bàjẹ́ tó, nítorí àwọn ènìyàn inú ayé ti bá ara wọn jẹ́ ní gbogbo ọ̀nà wọn.
And the Lord God saw the earth, and it was corrupted; because all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth.
13 Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Noa pé, “Èmi yóò pa gbogbo ènìyàn run, nítorí ilẹ̀ ayé kún fún ìwà ipá nípasẹ̀ wọn. Èmi yóò pa wọ́n run àti ayé pẹ̀lú.
And the Lord God said to Noe, A period of all men is come before me; because the earth has been filled with iniquity by them, and, behold, I destroy them and the earth.
14 Nítorí náà fi igi ọ̀mọ̀ kan ọkọ̀, kí o sì yọ yàrá sí inú rẹ̀, kí o sì fi ọ̀dà ilẹ̀ rẹ́ ẹ tinú-tẹ̀yìn.
Make therefore for yourself an ark of square timber; you shall make the ark in compartments, and you shall pitch it within and without with pitch.
15 Báyìí ni ìwọ yóò ṣe kan ọkọ̀ náà: Gígùn rẹ̀ ní òró yóò jẹ́ ọ̀ọ́dúnrún ìgbọ̀nwọ́, ìbú rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ àádọ́ta ìgbọ̀nwọ́, nígbà tí gíga rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ ọgbọ̀n ìgbọ̀nwọ́.
And thus shall you make the ark; three hundred cubits the length of the ark, and fifty cubits the breadth, and thirty cubits the height of it.
16 Ṣe òrùlé sí orí ọkọ̀ náà ní ìgbọ̀nwọ́ kan, sì ṣe ọkọ̀ náà ní alájà mẹ́ta, ipá kan ní ìsàlẹ̀, ọ̀kan ní àárín àti ọ̀kan tí ó kù ní òkè, ẹ̀gbẹ́ ni kí ó ṣe ẹnu-ọ̀nà ọkọ̀ náà sí.
You shall narrow the ark in making it, and in a cubit above you shall finish it, and the door of the ark you shall make on the side; with lower, second, and third storeys you shall make it.
17 Èmi yóò mú ìkún omi wá sí ayé láti pa gbogbo ohun ẹlẹ́mìí run lábẹ́ ọ̀run. Gbogbo ẹ̀dá tí ó ní èémí ìyè ní inú. Gbogbo ohun tí ó wà nínú ayé yóò parun.
And behold I bring a flood of water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life under heaven, and whatever things are upon the earth shall die.
18 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi ó dá májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú rẹ, ìwọ yóò sì wọ ọkọ̀, ìwọ àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ pẹ̀lú aya rẹ.
And I will establish my covenant with you, and you shall enter into the ark, and your sons and your wife, and your sons' wives with you.
19 Ìwọ yóò mú gbogbo ohun alààyè takọ tabo wá sí inú ọkọ̀, kí wọn le wà láààyè pẹ̀lú rẹ.
And of all cattle and of all reptiles and of all wild beasts, even of all flesh, you shall bring by pairs of all, into the ark, that you may feed them with yourself: male and female they shall be.
20 Mú onírúurú àwọn ẹyẹ, ẹranko àti àwọn ohun tí ń rákò ní méjì méjì, kí a bá lè pa wọ́n mọ́ láààyè.
Of all winged birds after their kind, and of all cattle after their kind, and of all reptiles creeping upon the earth after their kind, pairs of all shall come in to you, male and female to be fed with you.
21 Mú onírúurú oúnjẹ wá sínú ọkọ̀, kí o pa wọ́n mọ́ fún jíjẹ gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ẹ wà nínú ọkọ̀ àti ènìyàn àti ẹranko.”
And you shall take to yourself of all kinds of food which you eat, and you shall gather them to yourself, and it shall be for you and them to eat.
22 Noa sì ṣe ohun gbogbo bí Ọlọ́run ti pàṣẹ fún un.
And Noe did all things whatever the Lord God commanded him, so did he.
The World is Destroyed by Water
