IGENESIS 6

Unogumbe
1Kuthe bakuqala ukwanda abantu ehlabathini, bakuzalelwa iintombi, 2bazibona oonyana bakaThixo iintombi zabantu ukuba zintle, bazeka abafazi kuzo zonke abazinyuláyo. 3Wathi uYehova, UMoya wam akayi kulawula ebantwini ngonaphakade; ekulahlekeni kwabo bayinyama; imihla yabo iya kuba yiminyaka elikhulu elinamanci mabini. 4Kwakukho iingxilimbela ehlabathini ngaloo mihla; kananjalo emveni koko, xeshikweni oonyana bakaThixo bangenáyo kuzo iintombi zabantu, zabazalela abantwana. Aba baba ngamagorha ababekho kwasephakadeni, amadoda adumileyo.
5Wabona uThixo ukuba ububi babantu bandile ehlabathini, konke ukuyila kweengcinga zentliziyo yabo kubububi bodwa imihla yonke. 6Wazohlwaya uYehova, ngokuba emenzile umntu ehlabathini, kwaba buhlungu kuye entliziyweni. 7Wathi uYehova, Ndiya kumcima umntu endimdalileyo, angabikho ehlabathini, kuthabathele emntwini kuse ezinkomeni, kuse ezinambuzaneni, kuse ezintakeni zezulu, ngokuba ndizohlwaya ngokuba ndizenzile ezo zinto. 8UNowa yena wababalwa nguYehova.
9Yiyo le ke inzala kaNowa. UNowa waye eyindoda elilungisa, egqibeleleyo, ezizukulwaneni zakhe. UNowa wahamba noThixo. 10UNowa wazala oonyana abathathu: uShem noHam noYafete.
11Ihlabathi lalonakele ebusweni bukaThixo; ihlabathi lalizele lugonyamelo. 12UThixo walikhangela ihlabathi, nâlo, lonakele! Ngokuba yonke inyama ibiyonakalisile indlela yayo ehlabathini.
13Wathi uThixo kuNowa, Isiphelo senyama yonke sifikile phambi kwam; ngokuba ihlabathi lizele lugonyamelo oluphuma kubo; yabona ke, ndiya kubonákalisa, bona ndawonye nehlabathi. 14Zénzele ke umkhombe ngemithi yegofere,• uwenze izindlu umkhombe, uwuqabe ngaphakathi nangaphandle ngebhitumene.• 15Wénjenje ukuwenza: bube ngamakhulu omathathu eekubhite• ubude bomkhombe, namashumi omathathu eekubhite ububanzi bawo, namashumi omathathu eekubhite ukuphakama kwawo. 16Wenze ikroba emkhombeni, ukuligqiba kwakho kube yikubhite enye, ithabathela phezulu; umnyango womkhombe uwumise ecaleni lawo; wenze izindlu zodidi lwaphantsi, nolwesibini, nolwesithathu. 17Mna ke, ùyabona, ndihlisa unogumbe wamanzi ehlabathini, wokonakalisa yonke inyama enomoya wokuphila kuyo, ephantsi kwamazulu; konke okusehlabathini kuya kuphuma umphefumlo; 18ndíwumise umnqophiso wam nawe, ungene emkhombeni wena, noonyana bakho, nomkakho, nabafazi boonyana bakho, ndawonye nawe. 19Kwizinto zonke eziphilileyo, kwinyama yonke, uze ungenise emkhombeni ngambini kuzo zonke, ukuze zisindiswe nawe, ibe yinkunzi nemazi; 20kwiintaka ngohlobo lwazo, kwiinkomo ngohlobo lwazo, kuzo zonke izinambuzane zomhlaba ngohlobo lwazo, zibe ngambini kuzo zonke, eziya kungena kuwe, ukuba zisindiswe. 21Wena ke, uthabathele kuwe ekudleni konke okudliwayo, uhlanganisele kuwe kube kukudla kuwe nakuzo.
22Wenza uNowa konke uThixo abemwisele umthetho ngako, wenza njengoko.
