Ukuphela kukazamcolo
1UNkulunkulu wayesemkhumbula uNowa, nezilwane zonke, nezinkomo zonke ezinaye emkhunjini. UNkulunkulu wadlulisa umoya phezu komhlaba, amanzi abohla. 2Imithombo yotwa namafasitele asezulwini kwavinjwa, imvula yasezulwini yaphela. 3Amanzi ayesemuka njalo emhlabeni; emva kwezinsuku eziyikhulu namashumi ayisihlanu amanzi ancipha. 4Ngenyanga yesikhombisa ngosuku lweshumi nesikhombisa enyangeni umkhumbi wema ezintabeni zase-Ararati. 5Amanzi ancipha njalonjalo, kwaze kwaba senyangeni yeshumi. Ngeyeshumi ngolokuqala lwenyanga iziqongo zezintaba zabonakala.
6Kwathi emva kwezinsuku ezingamashumi amane uNowa wavula ifasitele lomkhumbi abelenzile. 7Wathuma igwababa, lazulazula njalo, aze asha amanzi emhlabeni. 8Wayesethuma ijuba ukubona ukuba amanzi asenciphile yini ebusweni bomhlaba. 9Kepha ijuba lalingafumani ukuphumula kwamathe onyawo lwalo, labuyela kuye emkhunjini, ngokuba amanzi ayesesebusweni bomhlaba wonke; waselula isandla sakhe, walithatha, walingenisa kuye emkhunjini. 10Wabuye wahlala izinsuku eziyisikhombisa; waphinda walithuma ujuba emkhunjini. 11Ijuba lafika kuye ngakusihlwa; bheka, kusemlonyeni walo iqabunga lomnqumo elikhiweyo. Wase azi uNowa ukuthi amanzi anciphile emhlabeni. 12Wabuye wahlala izinsuku eziyisikhombisa; walithuma ijuba; alabe lisabuyela kuye.
13Kwathi ngomnyaka wamakhulu ayisithupha nanye ngenyanga yokuqala ngolokuqala lwenyanga amanzi abeseshile emhlabeni; uNowa wasusa uphahla lomkhumbi, wabona, bheka, ubuso bomhlaba base bomile. 14Ngenyanga yesibili ngosuku lwamashumi amabili nesikhombisa lwenyanga umhlaba wawusomile.
15UNkulunkulu wakhuluma kuNowa, wathi: 16“Phuma emkhunjini, wena nomkakho, namadodana akho, nabafazi bamadodana akho bekanye nawe. 17 Phuma kanye nezilwane zonke eziphilayo zenyama yonke, izinyoni, nezinkomo, nezilwanyana zonke ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni, zichume emhlabeni, zizale, zande emhlabeni.”
18Wayesephuma uNowa namadodana akhe, nomkakhe, nabafazi bamadodana akhe bekanye naye. 19Zonke izilwane, nazo zonke izilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo, nazo zonke izinyoni, konke okuhamba emhlabeni ngezinhlobo zakho kwaphuma emkhunjini.
Umnikelo kaNowa nesithembiso sikaJehova
20UNowa wamakhela uJehova i-altare, wathatha kuzo zonke izilwane ezihlambulukileyo nakuzo zonke izinyoni ezihlambulukileyo, wanikela umnikelo wokushiswa e-altare. 21 UJehova wezwa iphunga elimnandi; uJehova wathi enhliziyweni yakhe: “Angisayikuphinda ngiqalekise umhlaba ngenxa yabantu, ngokuba imicabango yomuntu mibi kwasebusheni bakhe; angisayikuphinda ngibhubhise konke okuphilayo, njengalokho ngenzile. 22Umhlaba usekhona, ukutshala nokuvuna, amakhaza nokufudumala, ihlobo nobusika, imini nobusuku akuyikunqamuka.”
