The Nephilim and the Daughters of Men

6 Now it happened, when men began to multiply on the face of the land, and daughters were born to them, 2 that the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were good in appearance; and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose. 3 Then Yahweh said, “(A)My Spirit shall not [a]strive with man forever [b](B)because he indeed is flesh; [c]nevertheless his days shall be 120 years.” 4 The (C)Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

5 Then Yahweh saw that the evil of man was great on the earth, and that (D)every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 (E)And Yahweh regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was (F)grieved [d]in His heart. 7 And Yahweh said, “(G)I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the land, from man to animals to creeping things and to birds of the [e]sky; for (H)I regret that I have made them.” 8 But (I)Noah (J)found favor in the eyes of Yahweh.

The Generations of Noah

9 These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a (K)righteous man, [f](L)blameless among those in his generations; Noah (M)walked with God. 10 And Noah [g]became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

11 Now the earth was (N)corrupt before God, and the earth was (O)filled with violence. 12 And God saw the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for (P)all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth.

13 Then God said to Noah, “(Q)The end of all flesh has come before Me; for the earth is filled with violence because of them; and behold, I am about to destroy them with the earth. 14 Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood; you shall make the ark with rooms, and you shall [h]cover it inside and out with pitch. 15 Now this is how you shall make it: the length of the ark [i]300 cubits, its breadth 50 cubits, and its height 30 cubits. 16 You shall make a [j]window for the ark, and complete it to one [k]cubit from [l]the top; and set the door of the ark in the side of it; you shall make it with lower, second, and third decks. 17 As for Me, behold (R)I am bringing the flood of water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life, from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall breathe its last. 18 But I will establish (S)My covenant with you; and (T)you shall enter the ark—you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you. 19 (U)And of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every kind into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female. 20 (V)Of the birds after their kind, and of the animals after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every kind will come to you to keep them alive. 21 As for you, take for yourself some of all (W)food which is edible, and gather it to yourself; and it shall be for food for you and for them.” 22 (X)Thus Noah did; according to all that God had commanded him, so he did.

Genesis 6
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)

Ang Kasamaan ng Tao

6 Hindi nagtagal, dumami ang mga tao sa mundo, at marami ang kabataan nilang babae. 2 Nakita ng mga anak ng Dios[a] na ang mga babae ay magaganda. Kaya pumili sila ng magiging asawa nila sa sinumang maibigan nila. 3 Ngayon, sinabi ng Panginoon, “Hindi ko papayagang mabuhay ang tao nang matagal dahil silaʼy tao lamang. Kaya mula ngayon, ang tao ay mabubuhay nang hindi hihigit sa 120 taon.”

4 Nang panahong iyon, at kahit nitong huli, may mga kilalang tao sa mundo na mula sa lahi ng mga anak ng Dios na nagsipag-asawa ng magagandang babae. Silaʼy makapangyarihan at kilalang tao noong unang panahon.

5 Nang makita ng Panginoon na ang ginagawa ng mga tao sa mundo ay puro kasamaan lang, at ang palagi nilang iniisip ay masama, 6 nanghinayang siya kung bakit ginawa pa niya ang tao sa mundo. Labis ang kalungkutan niya, 7 kaya sinabi niya, “Lilipulin ko ang lahat ng taong nilikha ko sa buong lupain. At lilipulin ko rin ang lahat ng hayop sa lupa pati ang mga hayop na lumilipad, dahil nanghihinayang ako sa paglikha sa kanila.” 8 Pero may isang tao na nakapagbigay-lugod sa Panginoon, siya ay si Noe.

Si Noe

9 Ito ang salaysay tungkol sa pamilya ni Noe.

Si Noe ay makadios. Siya lang ang namumuhay na matuwid sa kapanahunan niya, at malapit ang kanyang relasyon sa Dios. 10 May tatlo siyang anak na lalaki na sina Shem, Ham at Jafet.

11 Napakasama na ng mga tao sa paningin ng Dios, at ang kanilang kasamaan ay laganap na sa mundo. 12 Nakita ng Dios na lubhang masama ang mga tao sa mundo dahil ang ginagawa nila ay puro kasamaan. 13 Kaya sinabi niya kay Noe, “Lilipulin ko ang lahat ng tao. Dahil sa kanila, lumaganap ang kasamaan sa mundo. Lilipulin ko sila kasama ng mundo. 14 Kaya ikaw Noe, gumawa ka ng barko mula sa matibay na kahoy, at gawan mo ito ng mga kwarto. Pagkatapos, pahiran mo ng alkitran ang loob at labas ng barko.[b] 15 Gawin mo ito na may sukat na 450 talampakan ang haba, 75 talampakan ang luwang, at 45 talampakan ang taas. 16 Lagyan mo ng bubong ang barko, at lagyan mo ng agwat na kalahating metro ang dingding at ang bubong. Gawan mo ang barko ng tatlong palapag, at lagyan ng pintuan sa gilid. 17 Sapagkat pababahain ko ang mundo para malipol ang lahat ng nabubuhay. Mamamatay ang lahat ng nasa mundo. 18 Pero gagawa ako ng kasunduan sa iyo. Papasok ka sa barko kasama ng asawa at ng mga anak mo pati ang mga asawa nila. 19 Magpapasok ka rin ng isang lalaki at babae sa bawat uri ng hayop para mabuhay sila kasama mo. 20 Dalawa sa bawat uri ng lahat ng hayop: mga lumilipad, lumalakad at gumagapang. Lalapit sila sa iyo para hindi sila mamatay. 21 Magdala ka rin ng lahat ng uri ng pagkain para sa inyo at para rin sa mga hayop.”

22 Sinunod ni Noe ang lahat ng iniutos ng Dios sa kanya.

Genesis 6
King James Version

6 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,

2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

3 And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

5 And God 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.

6 And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.

12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.

13 And 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.

14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.

17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.

18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.

19 And 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.

20 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.

21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.

22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.

Wickedness in the World

6 When human beings began to increase in number on the earth(A) and daughters were born to them, 2 the sons of God(B) saw that the daughters(C) of humans were beautiful,(D) and they married(E) any of them they chose. 3 Then the Lord said, “My Spirit(F) will not contend with[a] humans forever,(G) for they are mortal[b];(H) their days will be a hundred and twenty years.”

4 The Nephilim(I) were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans(J) and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.(K)

5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth,(L) and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time.(M) 6 The Lord regretted(N) that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth(O) the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.(P)” 8 But Noah(Q) found favor in the eyes of the Lord.(R)

Noah and the Flood

9 This is the account(S) of Noah and his family.

Noah was a righteous man, blameless(T) among the people of his time,(U) and he walked faithfully with God.(V) 10 Noah had three sons: Shem,(W) Ham and Japheth.(X)

11 Now the earth was corrupt(Y) in God’s sight and was full of violence.(Z) 12 God saw how corrupt(AA) the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.(AB) 13 So God said to Noah, “I am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I am surely going to destroy(AC) both them and the earth.(AD) 14 So make yourself an ark of cypress[c] wood;(AE) make rooms in it and coat it with pitch(AF) inside and out. 15 This is how you are to build it: The ark is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high.[d] 16 Make a roof for it, leaving below the roof an opening one cubit[e] high all around.[f] Put a door in the side of the ark and make lower, middle and upper decks. 17 I am going to bring floodwaters(AG) on the earth to destroy all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish.(AH) 18 But I will establish my covenant with you,(AI) and you will enter the ark(AJ)—you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you. 19 You are to bring into the ark two of all living creatures, male and female, to keep them alive with you.(AK) 20 Two(AL) of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal and of every kind(AM) of creature that moves along the ground will come to you to be kept alive.(AN) 21 You are to take every kind of food that is to be eaten and store it away as food for you and for them.”

22 Noah did everything just as God commanded him.(AO)
