Wɔ Nsuyiri no akyi no, Noa somaa aborɔnoma fii adaka no mu, na aborɔnoma no san bae a na “ngodua ahaban” tua n’ano. Ɛhe na aborɔnoma no nyaa ahaban no?

Bible ka kyerɛ yɛn sɛ “nsu no boroo so ara wɔ asase so, na ɛkataa mmepɔw atenten a ɛwɔ ɔsoro ase nyinaa so.” (Genesis 7:19) Bere a nsu no twee no, Noa somaa aborɔnoma no pɛnkoro dapɛn biara toaa so mprɛnsa. Ne mprenu so no, aborɔnoma no san bae a na “ngodua ahaban frɔmfrɔm tua n’ano; na Noa hui sɛ nsu no ayow asase so.”—Genesis 8:8-11.
