Genesis 6 (TCZCHONG)

1Hiche achun leiset chunga mihem ahung pung pan tan ahile alah uva chanu jong tampi ahing tauve.Now when men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born to them,

2Chuin Pathen chapa te chun numei hoitah ho chu amu uvin ama hon adei thei lheh jeng uvin, hijeh chun adei dei akilhen uvin ajinu dingin akipui tauvin ahi.the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they took as wives whomever they chose.

3Hichun Pathen'in aseiye, “Ka lhagao mihem sunga atonsot kumkho in chengden thei deh ponte, ajeh chu ama tahsaphe bou ahin, ahin nikho jong kum jakhat le kum somni bou hi ding ahiye,” ati.So the LORD said, “My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days shall be 120 years.”

4Hiche lai chun leiset chunga Nephilim miho ana um uvin, chujongleh Pathen chapa te mihem Chanute henga ahunglut nung'u chun ama hon jong cha ahin peh tauve; hiche ho chu khanglui laiya mihat te ana hiuvin, chule mi minthang ho chu ana hiuvin ahi.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.

5Pathen'in leiset chunga mihem ho setna chu akhol chen jingin, chule Pathen'in mihem hon thil phalou agel'u ahilou le lungthima ase abolnom ho'u chu aboncha aphalou jeng ahi chu amu doh tai.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.

6Hichun Pakaijin mihem asem'a leiset chung'a aumsah hatah in akisih tai.And the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.

7Hichun Pakaijin aseiye, “Keiman kasem doh mihem ho hi leiset chunga kon'a ka suhmang ding ahitai, mihem jouse alen aneo, gancha alen aneo tolgo chunga lamjot thei jouse chule chunglam a leng vachate ahiuvin, ajeh chu hicheng pi kana semdoh hi ka kisih lheh tai,” ati.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.”

8Hinlah Noah chu Pathen lungdei lam in aum jingin ahi.Noah, however, found favor in the eyes of the LORD.

9Hiche hi Noah le a insung mite umchan thusim ahiye, Noah chu mi chonpha, hiche khanglaiya chu leichung'a mona nei louva um chu Noah bou anahi, chule Noah chu Pathen toh ki lhakang louhel le Pathen toh kihou mat jing mi ahi.This is the account of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God.

10Noah chun chate thum aneijin amaho chu ahi le Shem, Ham, chule Japheth ahiuve.And Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

11Hichun Pathen'in leiset chung ahinven ahile mihem ho phatlouna le kitahlouna jeng amudoh tan ahi.Now the earth was corrupt in the sight of God, and full of violence.

12Pathen'in jong thil phalou jouse le thudih louva vannoi pumpia mihemte khat cheh a jong asetnau chu amudoh sohhel tai.And God looked upon the earth and saw that it was corrupt; for all living creatures on the earth had corrupted their ways.

13Hichun Pathen'in Noah jah a aseijin, “Keiman tua hi hinna neiya avahle thei jouse ka suhmang ding ahitai. Ajeh chu amaho jeh hin leiset chunga pumhat a kinona jeng adim tan ahi, vetan keiman aboncha uva leiset toh ka suhmang tha ding ahi tauve.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.

14Nangman Gopher thingin kong innei lentah khat kisem inlang, kong innei sunga chun indan adan adan in khah tanin, chuteng asung le apo twilutna thei lai jouse na huhbing sohkei ding ahi.Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood; make rooms in the ark and coat it with pitch inside and out.

15Hiche kong chu tong jali le somnga sao hi ding, chule asan dan chu tong somsagi le nga a sang hi ding, chule avai lam chu tong somli le nga a len hi ding ahi.And this is how you are to build it: The ark is to be 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high.

16Kong innei chu bangkot hong inlang achunglam chu khap som le get in sem inlang kong abanga kotpi hongin lang, indan noi nung danni lhinna, chule dan thum lhinna geiya nasem ding ahi.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.

17Tun ven keiman leichung jouse hi twisanglen a ka chupsah ding, hichu ganhing ahai thei jouse ahinkho kalah mang ding ahitai. Chule leichung'a um jouse ka suhmang ding ahi.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.

18Hinlah keiman nangma toh kitepna khat nei ing kating, chujou tengleh kongsunga nang nahin, na chapa te ahiuvin, najinu chule namoute toh na boncha uva kong sunga lut tauvin,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.

19Chule tahsa neiya hing gamsa namkim anu khat le achal khat cheh in kongsunga hin puilut un, ajeh chu twisang hatah a ahung let teng na hinso jou theina diu ahi.And you are to bring two of every living creature into the ark—male and female—to keep them alive with you.

20Vacha ho akop toni, gancha ho lah a jong ama-ama jat dungjuiya, tol'a aop'a kithol tho lah a jong ama-ama jat dung jui cheh a anu khat le achal khat cheh navah hing dinga na henga hung kitollut ding ahiuve.Two of every kind of bird and animal and crawling creature will come to you to be kept alive.

21Chule na suhmil theilou ding chu kong sunga naneh dingu an naneh diu ninglhingset a nakipohlut diu nakikhol khom diu ahi, ajeh chu hiche anneh ding ho chu nangho le gancha ho jouse ding ahi,” ati.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.”

22Hichun Noah in jong Pathen'in aseipeh bang bangin abolpan tan ahi.So Noah did everything precisely as God had commanded him.
