Umkhombe kaNowa wema phezu kweNtaba yeArarati
1uThixo wamkhumbula uNowa, neento zonke eziphilileyo, nezinto zonke ezizitho zine ezazinaye emkhombeni; 2Yavingcwa imithombo kanogumbe neengcango zezulu, wathintelwa umvumbi wezulu; 3Ayebuya amanzi emhlabeni, yaye ekupheleni kweentsuku ezilikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu amanzi awutha. 4Umkhombe wema phezu kweentaba zeArarati ngenyanga yesixhenxe, ngosuku lweshumi elinesixhenxe enyangeni leyo. 5Amanzi amana ewutha, kwada kwayinyanga yeshumi; ngeyeshumi ke, ngosuku lokuqala enyangeni leyo, zabonakala iincopho zeentaba. 6Ekupheleni kweentsuku ezimashumi mane wayivula uNowa ifestile yomkhombe abeyenzile. 7Walithumela ihlungulu, ada atsha amanzi ehlabathini; 8Wabuya wakhupha ihobe, ukuze abone ukuba amanzi awuthile na phezu komhlaba; 9Ihobe alifumananga ndawo yakuphumza nentende yethupha lalo, labuyela kuye emkhombeni, ngokuba amanzi abephezu kwehlabathi lonke; wasolula isandla sakhe, wayithabatha, wayirhuqela kuye emkhombeni. 10Walinda ezinye iintsuku zasixhenxe; waba ngukumkani, walikhupha ihobe emkhombeni; 11Kweza kuye ihobe ngorhatya; nanko, kukho igqabi lomnquma lisongiwe, lisongiwe; wazi uNowa, ukuba ehlile amanzi ehlabathini. 12Walinda ezinye iintsuku zasixhenxe; wakhupha ihobe; ababengabuyelanga kuye. 13Ngonyaka wamakhulu amathandathu ananye, ngenyanga yokuqala, ngolokuqala enyangeni leyo, atsha amanzi ehlabathini; uNowa wasisusa isiciko somkhombe, wakhangela, nango umhlaba womile. 14Ngenyanga yesibini, ngosuku lwamashumi omabini anesixhenxe enyangeni leyo, woma kwaphela umhlaba. 15Wathetha uThixo kuNowa, esithi: 16Phuma emkhombeni, wena nomfazi wakho, noonyana bakho, nabafazi boonyana bakho, ndawonye nawe. 17Zithabathe nawe zonke izinto eziphilileyo ezikuwe, yonke inyama, neentaka, neenkomo, neento zonke ezinyakazelayo emhlabeni; bande emhlabeni, bande, bande ehlabathini. 18Waphuma ke uNowa, noonyana bakhe, nomkakhe, nabafazi boonyana bakhe. 19Zonke izinto eziphilileyo, zonke izinambuzane, neentaka zonke, neento zonke ezinambuzelayo emhlabeni, ngohlobo lwazo, zaphuma emkhombeni. 20uNowa wamakhela uYehova isibingelelo; Wazithabatha zonke izinto ezizitho zine ezihlambulukileyo, neentaka zonke ezihlambulukileyo, wenza amadini anyukayo esibingelelweni. 21uYehova weva ivumba elithozamisayo; Wathi uYehova entliziyweni yakhe, Andisayi kulitshabhisa ihlabathi ngenxa yomntu; ngokuba ukuyila kwentliziyo yomntu kubi kwasebutsheni bakhe; andiyi kuphinda ndizivelele zonke izinto eziphilileyo njengoko ndenze ngako. 22Lo gama kusekho umhlaba, akuyi kuphela ukuhlwayela nokuvuna, ukubanda nobushushu nehlobo nobusika nemini nobusuku.
