N’agolola omukono gwe n’alikwata n’aliyingiza mu lyato.BSBBSB: But the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him in the ark, because the waters were still covering the surface of all the earth.

16. 16LUG“Vva mu lyato, ggwe, ne mukazi wo, ne batabani bo ne bakazi baabwe.BSBBSB: “Come out of the ark, you and your wife, along with your sons and their wives.
17. 17LUGFulumya buli kiramu ekiri naawe: ebinyonyi, n’ensolo, na buli kiramu ekitambula ku ttaka, biryoke bizaale byale ku nsi, byeyongerenga obungi.”BSBBSB: Bring out all the living creatures that are with you—birds, livestock, and everything that crawls upon the ground—so that they can spread out over the earth and be fruitful and multiply upon it.”
18. 18LUGAwo Nuuwa n’afuluma ne batabani be, ne mukazi we wamu ne bakazi ba batabani be.BSBBSB: So Noah came out, along with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.

21. 21LUGMukama n’awulira akawoowo akalungi akamusanyusa, n’ayogera mu mutima gwe nti, “Sikyaddayo kukolimira nsi olw’omuntu, newaakubadde ng’endowooza y’omutima gwe mbi okuva mu buto bwe. Sikyaddayo na kuzikiriza bitonde byonna ebiramu, nga bwe nkoze.BSBBSB: When the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.
