Genesis 6 (KBQ)

1Veamo'za ama mopafina vahera kase hakare hazageno, knare'nare mofa'nerami fore hu'naze.Now when men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born to them,

2Hanki vahe'mo'za rama'a mofane zaga kasezmantage'za, Anumzamofo mofavre naga'mo'za ke zamasane nehu'za zamavesia a'ne eri'naze.the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they took as wives whomever they chose.

3Ana hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Avamunimo'a vahe'mofompina mani'neno zamasimura zami vava osugahie. Na'ankure vahera fri'zaga mani'nazanki'za, 120'a zagegafua agateore'neza frigahaze.So the LORD said, “My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days shall be 120 years.”

4Ana knafine henka'anena tusinasi vahe'mo'za ama mopafina mani'nazankino, Anumzamofo mofavremo'za e'za vahe'mokizmi mofane zagane emasageno mofavrea kasezmante'naze. Hanki'za fore'ma hazana korapa knafina hankavenentake hu'za hihamu'ane vahe fore hu'naze.The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and afterward as well—when the sons of God had relations with the daughters of men. And they bore them children who became the mighty men of old, men of renown.

5Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'ma vahe'mokizmima zamage'neana, mika kna havi avu'avazamo ama mopafina ra huno vahe'mofo antahi antahifina, havi avu ava'zamo aviteno meno vu'ne.Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great upon the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was altogether evil all the time.

6E'ina nehazageno Anumzamo'a nezamageno rimpa haviza higeno muse osuno, nahige'na vahera trohu'noe huno asunke nehuno,And the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.

7Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Vahe'ene, zagagafane, namaramine, mopafi ne'onse zagarami'nena zamahe fanane hugahue. Nagrama tro'ma huzmante'noa zankura nasunku hue hu'ne.So the LORD said, “I will blot out man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—every man and beast and crawling creature and bird of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them.”

8Hianagi Noa'a agrake Ra Anumzamofo avurera fatgo nera mani'negeno muse hunte'ne.Noah, however, found favor in the eyes of the LORD.

9Hagi Noa nagamofo nanekea amanahu me'ne. Ana knafima mani'naza vahepina Noa'a fatgo huno hazenke'zama'a omanegeno Anumzane tragoteno mani'neno amage anteno vu'ne.This is the account of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God.

10Noa'a ne' mofavre tagufa zamanteno zamagi'a Semi'e, Hamu'e, Jafeti'e huno antezmi'ne.And Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

11Ama mopamo'a Anumzamofo avurera haviza hu'ne, ha' zamo'ene, kefo avu'avazamo enena avite'ne.Now the earth was corrupt in the sight of God, and full of violence.

12Anumzamo'ma ama mopafima ke'neana, tamage huno makazamo'a haviza hu'ne, ama mopafima me'neazama keana kumike'za huvagare'naze.And God looked upon the earth and saw that it was corrupt; for all living creatures on the earth had corrupted their ways.

13Hagi Anumzamo'a anage huno Noana asmi'ne, Ke ontahizageno kefo avu'ava zamo'a aviteankina zamagri'ene mopazimine zamahe fanane huku Nagra nagesa nentahue.Then God said to Noah, “The end of all living creatures has come before Me, because through them the earth is full of violence. Now behold, I will destroy both them and the earth.

14Hagi kagra hanave zafareti ra ventea tro nehunka, asa hutanenka hunaraginto. Timo'ma ufre'zankura agu'ane megi'anena fukinu renkaniro.Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood; make rooms in the ark and coat it with pitch inside and out.

15Ana ventema kisanana, zanra'a 150'a mitagi, kahesa'a 25 mitagi, atrure'a 15 mitagi hunka neginka,And this is how you are to build it: The ark is to be 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high.

16anagamu no amumpa tvaonte mago mitamofona agema'a hafu'a mita zasikana hagento. Magokaziga kaha hagentenka, ana ventemofo agu'afina ese nonki, anante nonki, agofetu nonki hunka kio.You are to make a roof for the ark, finish its walls a cubit from the top, place a door in the side of the ark, and build lower, middle, and upper decks.

17Hagi Nagra ha'nenkeno tusi'a ti hageno mopa refitena mani'ne'za zamasimu nentaza zane, maka'zanena zamahe fanane hugahue.And behold, I will bring floodwaters upon the earth to destroy every creature under the heavens that has the breath of life. Everything on the earth will perish.

18Hu'neanagi kagrane huhagerafinugu huvempa hu'na negasamue. Kagrane a'mofavre ka'ane knoferahe'zane tamagra maka ventefi marerigahaze.But I will establish My covenant with you, and you will enter the ark—you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you.

19Hagi rumofo rumofo zagagafama mani'nazafintira vene, a'ene zamavaretere huge'za kahefa hu'za mani'sagu ventefi mareriho.And you are to bring two of every living creature into the ark—male and female—to keep them alive with you.

20Zgagafama nama, rumofo rumofo kumate zagane, mopafi ne'onse zagarmine, vene a'ene kasefa hu'za manisnagu kagrite egahaze.Two of every kind of bird and animal and crawling creature will come to you to be kept alive.

21Ana nehunka aru ne'za aru ne'zana, tamagrane maka zagagafanema nesazazana erinka eme eritru huo.You are also to take for yourself every kind of food that is eaten and gather it as food for yourselves and for the animals.”

22Higeno Anumzamo'ma asmi'neaza huno Noa'a maka'zana tro hu'ne.So Noah did everything precisely as God had commanded him.
