6 Bantu byo batatwile kuvula pano panshi ne kusema baana ba bakazhi, 2 baana ba Lesa* wa kine+ batatwile kumona bano baana ba bantu ba bakazhi amba balamba. Onkao mambo, batatwile kusongola banabakazhi bonka bo besajijilenga abo bene. 3 Kepo Yehoba aambile’mba: “Kechi nkatwajijila kwikanya ne kuleka muntu kikupu ne,+ mambo aye ye muntutu.* Onkao mambo, myaka yanji ikekalatu 120.”+
4 Banefile* bajinga pano pa ntanda mu oa moba ne moba akwabo a kulutwe. Pa kyonkakya kimye, baana ba Lesa wa kine batwajijile kulaala na baana ba bakazhi ba bantu ne kusemenamo baana ba balume. Bajinga babiyangala bajingako mu oa moba a kala.

13 Kepo Lesa aambijile Nowa amba: “Nafuukulapo kuvizha bantu bonse, mambo bakumbanya bukapondo pa ntanda, onkao mambo, nkebonawina kumo na ntanda.+ 14 Ifiikile bwato* na mapulanga a kichi kya ngofela.+ Ukachibaulemo bibamba mukachi ka bwato ne kwibushinga manenekela+ mukachi ne pangye. 15 Bino byo byo ukebufiika: Bwato bwafwainwa kwikala mu bula makyubichi* 300, mu bwipi makyubichi 50 ne mu kimino makyubichi 30. 16 Kabiji ukalenge ne kipenze ku bwato mwa kutwelela kyeya saka kwashala kyubichi umo kufuma peulu.

Byonse biji pano pa ntanda bikavila.+ 18 Kabiji mbena kwikajika lulayañano ne obewa, kabiji wafwainwa kutwela mu bwato, obewa, baana bobe, mukazhobe ne bakazhi ba baana bobe.+ 19 Kabiji ukatwezhe mu bwato mitundu yonse ya bilengwa byumi+ bibiji bibiji pa kuba’mba bikekale na bumi pamo ne obewa, kilume ne kikazhi;+ 20 ne bilengwa bitumbuka monka mwayila mitundu yabyo, banyama ba kulela monka mwayila mitundu yabo ne bikalaba panshi monka mwayila mitundu yabyo, bikatwele ne obewa bibiji bibiji pa kuba’mba bikekale na bumi.+ 21 Kabiji obewa ukabungizhe ne kusenda kajo ka mitundu yonse,+ ka kuja obewa ne banyama.”
