Genizesi 6:1-22
6 Ŵanthu ŵakati ŵamba kwandana mu charu na kubaba ŵana ŵanakazi,
2 ŵana ŵa Chiuta waunenesko*+ ŵakawona ŵana ŵanakazi ŵa ŵanthu kuti mbakutowa. Ntheura ŵakamba kutora ŵanakazi wose awo iwo ŵakhumba, kuŵa ŵawoli ŵawo.
3 Penepapo Yehova wakati: “Mzimu wane ulekelerenge munthu kwamuyirayira chara,+ chifukwa iyo ni thupi.* Ntheura mazuŵa ghake ghaŵenge vyaka 120.”+
4 Mu mazuŵa ghara na pamanyuma pake, pa charu chapasi pakaŵa Ŵanefili.* Pa nyengo yira, ŵana ŵanalume ŵa Chiuta waunenesko ŵakagonanga na ŵana ŵanakazi ŵa ŵanthu, ndipo ŵakababamo ŵana ŵanalume. Ŵana aŵa ŵakaŵa vinkhara, viŵanthu vyakumanyikwa.
5 Yehova wakawona kuti uheni wa ŵanthu ukaŵa ukuru chomene pa charu chapasi, kweniso kuti maghanoghano gha mtima wawo ghakaŵa ghaheni pera nyengo zose.+
6 Chitima chikamukora* Yehova kuti wakapanga munthu pa charu chapasi, ndipo wakakwenyelera mu mtima wake.*+
7 Ntheura Yehova wakati: “Niphyerengepo ŵanthu wose awo nili kuŵalenga pa charu chapasi, munthu pamoza na viŵeto, vinyama vyakukhwaŵa, na vyamoyo vyakuduka mudera, chifukwa chitima chanikora kuti nili kuvilenga.”
8 Kweni Yehova wakawonamo uwemi mwa Nowa.
9 Uwu ni mdauko wa Nowa.
Nowa wakaŵa munthu murunji.+ Wakaŵa wambura kafukwa* mu muwiro wake.* Nowa wakendanga na Chiuta waunenesko.+
10 Nowa wakababa ŵana ŵanalume ŵatatu: Shemu, Hamu, na Yafeti.+
11 Kweni charu chapasi chikanangika pamaso pa Chiuta waunenesko, charu chikazura na nkhaza.
12 Chiuta wakalaŵiska pa charu chapasi, ndipo chikaŵa chakunangika,+ mendero gha ŵanthu wose pa charu chapasi ghakanangika.+
13 Pamanyuma, Chiuta wakati kwa Nowa: “Naghanaghana kuparanya chamoyo chose, pakuti charu chapasi chazura na nkhaza chifukwa cha ŵanthu. Ntheura niŵaparanyirenge lumoza na charu chapasi.+
14 Upange chingalaŵa* cha makuni gha gofa.+ Ugaŵe vipinda mu chingalaŵa na kuchimata na phura*+ mukati na kuwaro.
15 Uchipange nthena: Mu utali chiŵe mikono* 300, mu usani mikono 50, kufuma pasi kuya muchanya mikono 30.
16 Upange windo* kuti mu chingalaŵa munjirenge ungweru, kufuma ku mtenje wa chingalaŵa kufika pa windo, upime mkono umoza. Mumphepete mwa chingalaŵa upangemo mulyango.+ Chiŵe na vigaŵa vitatu vyakudikanya: chigaŵa chapasi, chapakati, na chapachanya.
17 “Ine nitumenge chigumula cha maji+ pa charu chapasi icho chiparanyenge chilichose icho chili na mvuchi wa umoyo.* Ndipo chilichose icho chili pa charu chapasi chifwenge.+
18 Ndipo nkhuchita phangano na iwe. Unjire mu chingalaŵa, iwe, ŵana ŵako ŵanalume, muwoli wako, na ŵakamwana ŵako.+
19 Ndipo pa chamoyo cha mtundu uliwose utorepo viŵiri,+ chanalume na chanakazi,+ uvinjizge mu chingalaŵa, kuti visungike vyamoyo pamoza na iwe,
20 vyakuduka mudera kuyana na mtundu wake, vyakuŵeta kuyana na mtundu wake, vyakukhwaŵa vyose kuyana na mtundu wake. Unjirenge navyo viŵiriviŵiri kuti visungike vyamoyo.+
21 Kweniso uwunjike na kutora vyakurya vyakupambanapambana,+ vya iwe na vinyama.”
22 Nowa wakachita vyose nga umo Chiuta wakamutumira. Wakachita ndendende.+
