Genesis 6
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
1Te vaengkah hlang loh diklai hman ah pungtai pahoi tih amamih ham canu a cun uh hatah,
2that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives, whomsoever they chose.
2Pathen capa rhoek loh hlang canu rhoek te then tila a hmuh uh. Te dongah amih te amamih yuu la boeih a coelh tih a loh uh.
3And the LORD said: 'My spirit shall not abide in man for ever, for that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.'
3Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Hlang ngawn tah pumsa la om tih kai kah mueihla loh hlang taengah kumhal ah ka naep eh a ti pawt dongah hlang kah khohnin he kum ya neh kum kul mah om saeh,” a ti.
4The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.
4Te vaeng tue ah Nephilim rhoek tah diklai ah om uh. A hnukah khaw Pathen capa rhoek te hlang canu rhoek taengah kun uh tih amih ham ca a cun pa uh. Amih te khosuen kah hlangrhalh la ming aka om hlang rhoek ni.
5And the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
5BOEIPA loh diklai hmanah hlang kah boethae he yet tih a lungbuei kopoek neh benbonah loh boeih khaw hnin takuem a thae bueng ni tila a hmuh.
6And it repented the LORD that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at His heart.
6Te dongah BOEIPA loh diklai hmankah hlang a saii te hal coeng tih a lungbuei te tlo.
7And the LORD said: 'I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and creeping thing, and fowl of the air; for it repenteth Me that I have made them.'
7Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Ka suen hlang te diklai hman lamkah ka khoe pawn ni. Hlang khaw, rhamsa khaw, rhulcai khaw, vaan kah vaa khaw amih ka saii dongah te ka hal coeng,” a ti.
8But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
8Tedae Noah tah BOEIPA mik ah mikdaithen la om.
9These are the generations of Noah. Noah was in his generations a man righteous and whole-hearted; Noah walked with God.
9Hekah he tah Noah kah rhuirhong ni. Noah he amah kah thawnpuei khuiah hlang duengneh a cuemthuek la om. Pathen nen khaw Noah tah pongpa hmaih.
10And Noah begot three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
10Noah loh capa pathum Shem, Ham neh Japheth te a sak.
11And the earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
11Te vaengah diklai te Pathen mikhmuh ah poci tih diklai te kuthlahnah loh a khulae.
12And God saw the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth.
12Te dongah Pathen loh a sawt vaengah diklai hmanah pumsa boeih tah a longpuei te poci tih diklai khaw poci coeng ne.
13And God said unto Noah: 'The end of all flesh is come before Me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
13Te dongah Pathen loh Noah taengah, “Pumsa boeih kah a bawtnah tah ka mikhmuh ah pai coeng. Amih mikhmuh lamkah kuthlahnah te diklai hah. Te dongah ni diklai neh amih te ka phae ne.
14Make thee an ark of gopher wood; with rooms shalt thou make the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
14Namah ham gopher thing neh lawng te saii lamtah lawng te a bu saii pah. Te phoeiah a khui ah khaw, poeng ah khaw aang neh hnil.
15And this is how thou shalt make it: the length of the ark three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
15Tekah lawng te metlam na saii eh tikoinih, lawng kah a yun te dong ya thum, a daang dong sawmnga, a sang dong thukip lo ni.
16A light shalt thou make to the ark, and to a cubit shalt thou finish it upward; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.
16Lawng te imphu na saii vetih tlungyun te tah dong khat cup sak. Te phoeiah lawng kah a kaep ah thohka khueh lamtah a cuek, pabae neh pathum la saii.
17And I, behold, I do bring the flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; every thing that is in the earth shall perish.
17Kai khaw kamah loh pumsa boeih te phae hamla diklai ah tuilii tui kang khuen coeng ne. A khuiah vaan hmui lamkah hingnah mueihla khaw, diklai dongkah a cungkuem he pal ni.
18But I will establish My covenant with thee; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
18Tedae nang taengah kai kah paipi te ka thoh vetih nang khaw, na ca rhoek khaw, na yuu khaw, na langa rhoek khaw, namah neh lawng khuila na khuen ni.
19And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.
19Te vaengah mulhing boeih lamkah khaw, pumsa boeih lamkah khaw a hluei neh a la te panit ah khueh lamtah namah taengah hing sak ham lawng te boeih paan puei.
20Of the fowl after their kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.
20Vaa te khaw amah hui la, rhamsa lamkah khaw amah hui la, diklai ah rhulcai boeih lamkah amah hui la, boeih khuikah panit tah hlun ham nang taengah ham paan saeh.
21And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.'
21Te phoeiah na caak ham buh boeih te namah taengah khuen lamtah namah ham tung. Namah ham neh amih ham cakok la om saeh,” a ti nah.
22Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
22Te dongah Noah loh a saii tih Pathen loh anih a uen boeih te a saii van.
