1 When the word of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 came unto Noaḥ, saying, Take for yourself Na’amah, the daughter of Lemeḵ who dwells here in the city of your fathers, for she has been faithful to My Besorah, wherefore, I shall preserve through her the seed of Qayin through the flood, Noaḥ went to his father, Methushelaḥ.
2 Methushelaḥ inquired of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 and returned this word to his son Lemeḵ: Truely, this what 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 said, My handmaiden Na’amah have I given to My son Noaḥ that the seed of Qayin might be preserved through the great flood which I will send upon the earth.
3 Wherefore, let not My son Noaḥ fear to take her to wife, for in so doing he shall be baruḵ for through him will come all nations.
4 Wherefore, say to him, Noaḥ, My son, I have looked upon the evils of the sons of men which have come up before Me, for they have corrupted the whole earth except only this city in which you dwell.
5 Therefore, I will send in the floods upon the earth but you and your seed will I preserve through the flood, for I will send My messengers to instruct you in the building of an ark where you shall be saved.
6 Behold, I shall establish your seed before Me forever and I will spread them abroad over the earth as numerous as the sand upon the seashore.
7 Your seed shall not cease as long as the earth shall stand but through you and your kehunnah which will be preserved in your seed shall all nations be baruḵ.
