EBIRIMO bingi mubya lhaba. Abana ba Noa mubabya n’abana bangi. N’abana babu muba kulha babya n’abana bangi. Neryo abandu mubabya bangi okwa kihugho.

Omughuma w’okw’abandu aba, abya mwitsikulhu wa Noa oyu wabya Nimurodi. Abya mulhume mubi oyuwabya akahigha n’eritha ebisoro n’abandu. Nimurodi kandi mwayikolha mwa Mwami athabale okw’abandi bandu. Nyamuhanga mwathanza Nimurodi.

Abandu okw’omughulhu oyo babya bakabugha mubughe mughuma. Nimurodi mwanza abahire haghuma nuku anga bathabalha. Neryo wunasi ekyabya akolire? Mwabwira abandu athi bahimbe omuyi n’erihira mugho mw’enyumba nyiri-nyiri. Lhangirabo omwa kisasani baka bumba amatafali.

Yehova Nyamuhanga mwatha tsemesibwa n’erihimba eri. Nyamuhanga aby’anzire abandu bayitsatsange n’er’ikalha omwa kihugho kyosi. Aliriryo abandu mubabugha bathi: ‘Mwase! Thuyihimbire omuyi n’enyumba nyiri-nyiri, akasweswe kayo kahike elhubulha. Neryo thwasya minywa!’ Abandu mubanza bahebawe ekitsumbi kwilhaba Nyamuhanga.
