Ukufika kukazamcolo
1UJehova wathi kuNowa: “Ngena emkhunjini, wena nendlu yakho yonke, ngokuba ngikubonile wena ukuthi uqotho phambi kwami kulesi sizukulwane. 2 Kuzo zonke izilwane ezihlambulukileyo uzakuthatha ngasikhombisa, iduna nensikazi yalo, nakuzo izilwane ezingahlambulukile uthathe ngambili, iduna nensikazi yalo, 3nakuzo izinyoni zezulu ngasikhombisa, iduna nensikazi, ukuba kulondolozwe inzalo emhlabeni wonke. 4Ngokuba emva kwezinsuku eziyisikhombisa ngiyakunisa imvula emhlabeni izinsuku ezingamashumi amane nobusuku obungamashumi amane, ngichithe ebusweni bomhlaba konke okuphilayo engikwenzileyo.”
5UNowa wakwenza konke njengalokho emyalile uJehova.
6UNowa wayeneminyaka engamakhulu ayisithupha mhla uzamcolo wamanzi efika emhlabeni. 7UNowa wangena emkhunjini namadodana akhe, nomkakhe, nabafazi bamadodana akhe bekanye naye ngenxa yamanzi kazamcolo. 8Kuzo izilwane ezihlambulukileyo nezingahlambulukile, nezinyoni, nezilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni 9kwangena ngambili emkhunjini kuNowa, iduna nensikazi, njengalokho uNkulunkulu emyalile uNowa. 10Kwathi emva kwezinsuku eziyisikhombisa amanzi kazamcolo afika emhlabeni; 11 ngomnyaka wamakhulu ayisithupha wokuhamba kukaNowa ngenyanga yesibili ngosuku lweshumi nesikhombisa lwenyanga, ngalona lolo suku imithombo yonke yotwa yabhoboka, namafasitele asezulwini avuleka. 12Lana emhlabeni izinsuku ezingamashumi amane nobusuku obungamashumi amane.
13Ngalolo suku uNowa wangena emkhunjini noShemi, noHamu, noJafete, amadodana kaNowa, nomkaNowa, nabafazi bobathathu bamadodana akhe bekanye nabo, 14bona nazo zonke izilwane ngezinhlobo zazo, nezinkomo zonke ngezinhlobo zazo, nezilwanyana zonke ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni ngezinhlobo zazo, nezinyoni zonke ngezinhlobo zazo, konke okunamaphiko. 15Zangena kuNowa emkhunjini zimbili ngazimbili enyameni yonke okukuyo umoya wokuphila. 16Ezangenayo zangena ziyiduna nensikazi zenyama yonke, njengalokho uNkulunkulu emyalile; uJehova wavala emva kwakhe.
17Kwaba nguzamcolo emhlabeni izinsuku ezingamashumi amane; amanzi anda, aphakamisa umkhumbi; waphakama phezu komhlaba. 18Amanzi akhula, anda kakhulu emhlabeni; umkhumbi wahamba ebusweni bamanzi. 19Amanzi andisisa impela emhlabeni; zasitshekelwa zonke izintaba eziphakemeyo eziphansi kwezulu lonke. 20Amanzi azidlula ngezingalo eziyishumi nanhlanu, zaze zasitshekelwa izintaba. 21Inyama yonke eyayihamba emhlabeni yafa, izinyoni, nezinkomo, nezilo, nezilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni, nabantu bonke; 22konke okunomphefumulo womoya wokuphila emakhaleni akho, konke okusemhlabathini owomileyo, kwafa. 23Wachitha kanjalo konke okuphilayo ebusweni bomhlaba, abantu, nezinkomo, nezilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo, nezinyoni zezulu; wakuchitha emhlabeni; kwasala uNowa yedwa kanye nakho okwakukhona naye emkhunjini.
24Amanzi ayenamandla emhlabeni izinsuku eziyikhulu namashumi ayisihlanu.
