Genesis 6
1 Ke mwet uh fahsrelik nu yen nukewa faclu, ac oasr tulik mutan osweyukla,
When men began to multiply on the surface of the ground, and daughters were born to them,
2 kutu sin mwet lucng liyauk lah tulik mutan inge oasku, ouinge elos payukyak selos su elos lungse.
God’s sons saw that men’s daughters were beautiful, and they took any that they wanted for themselves as wives.
3 Na LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah tia fuhlela mwet uh in moul nwe tok — elos mano na sukawil. Ingela elos ac fah tia moul loes liki yac siofok longoul.”
The LORD said, “My Spirit will not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh; so his days will be one hundred and twenty years.”
4 In len ingo, aok finne kutu pacl toko, oasr mwet na lulap pisa fin faclu pangpang Nephilim, su ma nutin mutan faclu nu sin mukul lucng. Elos mwet na pwengpeng ac pulaik in pacl so.
The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when God’s sons came in to men’s daughters and had children with them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.
5 Ke LEUM GOD El liye lupan koluk lun mwet nukewa fin faclu, ac lupan nunak koluk lalos ke pacl nukewa,
The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of man’s heart was continually only evil.
6 El arulana auli lah el oralosla ac fuhlelosi fin faclu. Yohk oela lal,
The LORD was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart.
7 na El fahk, “Nga fah sukela mwet nukewa nga orala inge, wi ma orakrak ac won nukewa, mweyen yohk toasr luk lah nga oralosla.”
The LORD said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the surface of the ground—man, along with animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky—for I am sorry that I have made them.”
8 Tusruktu LEUM GOD El insewowo sel Noah.
But Noah found favour in the LORD’s eyes.
9 Pa inge sramsram kacl Noah ac fwilin tulik natul. Noah el moul in sie sin sie yurin God, ac el mukena moul suwohs ac wangin mwatal inmasrlon mwet nukewa in fwil lal.
This is the history of the generations of Noah: Noah was a righteous man, blameless amongst the people of his time. Noah walked with God.
10 Oasr wen tolu natul Noah, inelos pa Shem, Ham, ac Japheth.
Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 Tusruktu mwet nukewa sayal Noah arulana koluk ye mutun God, na lokoalok ac moul sesuwos apunla faclu.
The earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12 God El liye lah faclu arulana kolukla, mweyen moul lun mwet nukewa arulana koluk.
God saw the earth, and saw that it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.
13 God El fahk nu sel Noah, “Nga wotela tari ngan kunausla mwet nukewa. Nga ac sukelosla nufon, mweyen faclu sessesla ke orekma koluk lalos.
God said to Noah, “I will bring an end to all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Behold, I will destroy them and the earth.
14 Musaela soko oak ah okom ke sak na wowo. Orala kutu fukil an loac, ac sroalela acn loac ac acn lik ke tar.
Make a ship of gopher wood. You shall make rooms in the ship, and shall seal it inside and outside with pitch.
15 Oru in fit angfoko lumngaul lusa, fit itngoul limekosr sralapa, ac fit angngaul limekosr fulata.
This is how you shall make it. The length of the ship shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.
16 Sunya oak uh, ac likiya sie masrol ma inch singoul oalkosr inmasrlon susu sacn ac sisken oak uh. Musai tuh in oasr twek tolu ac orala sie srungul an ke siska uh.
You shall make a roof in the ship, and you shall finish it to a cubit upward. You shall set the door of the ship in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third levels.
17 Nga ac supwama sie sronot ah nu faclu in kunausla ma nukewa ma oasr moul la. Ma nukewa fin faclu ac fah misa,
I, even I, will bring the flood of waters on this earth, to destroy all flesh having the breath of life from under the sky. Everything that is in the earth will die.
18 tusruktu nga ac orala sie wuleang inmasrlok kom. Utyak nu in oak uh wi mutan kiom, wen nutum, ac mutan kialos.
But I will establish my covenant with you. You shall come into the ship, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives with you.
19 Kom fah use kais lukwa ke kain in ma orakrak nukewa nu in oak uh, mukul se mutan se, in wi kom moulla.
Of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ship, to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.
20 Nu ke ip lun won uh, in fal nu ke kain in won, ac nu ke kosro uh, in fal nu ke kain in kosro, ke ma orakrak nukewa in fohk uh, in fal nu ke kain in lumah — kais luo ke kain nukewa fah utyak nu yurum tuh elos fah moul.
Of the birds after their kind, of the livestock after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort will come to you, to keep them alive.
21 Us kain in mwe mongo nukewa in wi kom, ma ac fal nu sum ac nu selos.”
Take with you some of all food that is eaten, and gather it to yourself; and it will be for food for you, and for them.”
22 Noah el oru ma nukewa ma God El sapkin.
Thus Noah did. He did all that God commanded him.
The World is Destroyed by Water
