1. 1LUGAbantu bwe beeyongera obungi ku nsi ne bazaalirwa abaana aboobuwala.BSBBSB: Now when men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born to them,
2. 2LUGAbaana ba Katonda ne balaba ng’abawala abo balungi ne bawasa buli gwe beerondera.BSBBSB: the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they took as wives whomever they chose.
3. 3LUGAwo Mukama n’agamba nti, “Omwoyo wange taawakanenga na muntu emirembe gyonna, kubanga muntu buntu; n’ennaku ze ziriba emyaka kikumi mu abiri.”BSBBSB: So the LORD said, “My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days shall be 120 years.”
4. 4LUGMu nnaku ezo, abaana ba Katonda bwe beegatta n’abawala b’abantu abo, ne babazaalamu abaana; be Banefuli abaali abatutumufu ennyo era abalwanyi abeekitalo mu biseera ebyo era ne mu biro ebyaddirira.BSBBSB: 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.
5. 5LUGMukama n’alaba ng’ekibi ky’omuntu kiyinze nnyo ku nsi; nga buli ndowooza y’omutima gw’omuntu mbi njereere ebbanga lyonna.BSBBSB: 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.
6. 6LUGMukama n’anakuwala nnyo kubanga yatonda omuntu ku nsi, n’alumwa nnyo mu mutima gwe.BSBBSB: And the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.
7. 7LUGAwo Mukama n’agamba nti, “Ndiggya ku nsi omuntu gwe natonda, ndisaanyaawo omuntu, n’ensolo n’ebinyonyi, kubanga nejjusizza olw’okubitonda.”BSBBSB: 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.”
8. 8LUGKyokka ye Nuuwa n’alaba ekisa mu maaso ga Mukama.BSBBSB: Noah, however, found favor in the eyes of the LORD.
9. 9LUGBino bye bifa ku Nuuwa n’ab’omu nju ye: Nuuwa yali muntu mutuukirivu, nga taliiko kya kunenyezebwa mu bantu b’ekiseera kye, n’atambula ne Katonda.BSBBSB: This is the account of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God.
10. 10LUGNuuwa yalina batabani be basatu: Seemu ne Kaamu ne Yafeesi.BSBBSB: And Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

13. 13LUGKatonda kwe kugamba Nuuwa nti, “Mmaliridde okuzikiriza buli muntu, kubanga ensi ejjudde eddalu; laba, nzija kubazikiriza mbamalewo ku nsi.BSBBSB: 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.
14. 14LUGNaye ggwe Nuuwa weekolere eryato mu muti gofeeri, okolemu ebisenge, olibikke n’envumbo munda ne kungulu.BSBBSB: Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood; make rooms in the ark and coat it with pitch inside and out.
15. 15LUGBw’oti bw’oba olikola: obuwanvu bwalyo mita kikumi mu ana, n’obugazi mita amakumi abiri mu ssatu, n’obugulumivu mita kkumi na ssatu n’ekitundu.BSBBSB: And this is how you are to build it: The ark is to be 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high.
16. 16LUGBw’oliba olizimba, waggulu oteekangayo akasolya nga kabika kimu kyakubiri ekya mita. Omulyango gwalyo oguteekanga mu mbiriizi zaalyo. Okolanga eryato lya kalinassatu, ery’emyaliiro: ogwa wansi n’ogwokubiri, n’ogwokusatu.BSBBSB: 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.
