Kuyipa kwa Mtundu wa Anthu
1 Anthu atayamba kuchuluka pa dziko lapansi ndi kubereka ana aakazi, 2 ana aamuna a Mulungu anaona kuti ana aakazi a anthuwo anali okongola. Ndipo anakwatira aliyense amene anamusankha. 3 Tsono Yehova anati, “Sindilola kuti chipwirikiti chikuchitikachi chipitirire mpaka muyaya, pakuti iye ndi munthu; masiku a moyo wake adzakhala zaka 120.”
4 Masiku amenewo komanso pambuyo pake, pa dziko lapansi panali Anefili, anthu amphamvu ndiponso otchuka. Anthuwa ndi amene ankabadwa ana a Mulungu aja atakwatira ana aakazi a anthu.
5 Pamene Yehova anaona kuti kuyipa kwa munthu pa dziko lapansi kunali kwakukulu ndi kuti nthawi zonse amalingalira ndi kukhumbira kuchita zoyipa zokhazokha, 6 Yehova anamva chisoni kuti analenga munthu ndi kumuyika pa dziko lapansi, ndipo anawawidwa mtima. 7 Choncho Yehova anati, “Ndidzafafaniza munthu, nyama, zonse zokwawa, ndi mbalame za mu mlengalenga pa dziko lapansi, pakuti ndikumva chisoni kuti ndinazilenga zimenezi.” 8 Koma Yehova anamukomera mtima Nowa.
Nowa ndi Chigumula
9 Mbiri ya Nowa inali yotere:
Nowa anali munthu wolungama ndi wopanda tchimo pakati pa anthu a mʼbado wake. Ndipo anayenda ndi Mulungu. 10 Nowa anabereka ana aamuna atatu: Semu, Hamu ndi Yafeti.
11 Chiwawa chinadzaza pa dziko lapansi kotero kuti dziko linakhala lowonongeka pamaso pa Mulungu. 12 Mulungu atayangʼana, anaona kuti dziko layipadi chifukwa cha makhalidwe oyipa a anthu onse pa dziko lapansi. 13 Ndipo Mulungu anati kwa Nowa, “Ndatsimikiza mtima kuti ndiwononge anthu onse, pakuti dziko lapansi ladzaza ndi ntchito zawo zoyipa. Ndithudi ndiwawononga pamodzi ndi zonse za pa dziko. 14 Tsono udzipangire chombo cha matabwa a mtengo wanjale; mʼkati mwake upange zipinda ndipo upake phula mʼkati ndi kunja. 15 Uchipange motere: Chombo chikhale mamita 140 mulitali, mamita 23 mulifupi ndi mamita 13 mu msinkhu wake. 16 Uchipangire denga ndi kuchimaliza ndi zenera la masentimita makumi asanu. Uyike khomo mʼmbali mwa chombocho ndi kupanga zipinda zosanjikana; chapansi, chapakati ndi chapamwamba. 17 Ndidzagwetsa mvula ya chigumula pa dziko lapansi kuti ndiwononge zamoyo zonse za pansi pa thambo ndipo chilichonse cha pa dziko lapansi chidzafa. 18 Koma ndidzachita pangano langa ndi iwe. Iwe, ana ako aamuna, mkazi wako ndi akazi a ana ako nonse mudzalowa mʼchombocho. 19 Iwe udzalowa mʼchombocho ndi zolengedwa zamoyo zonse ziwiriziwiri, chachimuna ndi chachikazi, kuti zisungike ndi moyo pamodzi ndi iwe. 20 Udzatenga ziwiriziwiri za mitundu yonse ya mbalame, mitundu yonse ya nyama, ndi mitundu yonse ya zokwawa kuti zikhale ndi moyo. 21 Udzatengenso chakudya cha mtundu uliwonse ndi kuchisunga kuti inu ndi nyamazo muzidzadya.”
22 Nowa anachita zonse monga Mulungu anamulamulira.
