ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).

ወባዕዳንሂ፡ ኵሉ፡ ምስሌሆሙ፡ ወነሥኡ፡ ሎሙ፡ አንስትያ፡ ወኀረየ፡ ኵሉ፡ ለለ፡ ርእሱ፡ አሐተ፡ አሐተ፡ ወወጠኑ፡ ይባኡ፡ ኀቤሆን፡ ወተደመሩ፡ ምስሌሆን፡ ወመሀርዎን፡ ሥራያተ፡ ወስብዓታተ፡ ወመቲረ፡ ሥርው፡ ወዕፀወ፡ አመርዎን።

And all the others together with them took unto themselves wives, and each chose for himself one, and they began to go in unto them and to defile themselves with them, and they taught them charms and enchantments, and the cutting of roots, and made them acquainted with plants.

其餘的眾天使也與他們一同行事，各為自己娶了妻子，各人為自己挑選一個，便開始與她們同房，玷污自己；又把符咒、法術、割取樹根之術教導她們，並使她們認識各樣的草木。

7:2

ወእማንቱሰ፡ ፀንሳ፡ ወወለዳ፡ ረዓይተ፡ ዐበይተ፡ ወቆሞሙ፡ በበ፡ ሠላሳ፡ ምእት፡ በእመት።

And they became pregnant, and they bare great giants, whose height was three thousand ells:

她們便懷了孕，生下身量高大的巨人，身高有三千肘。

7:3

እሉ፡ በልዑ፡ ኵሎ፡ ጻማ፡ ሰብእ፡ እስከ፡ ስእንዎሙ፡ ሴስዮተ፡ ሰብእ።

Who consumed all the acquisitions of men.

這些巨人喫盡了人一切的勞苦所得，以致世人無法再供養他們。

7:4

ወተመይጡ፡ ረዓይት፡ ላዕሌሆሙ፡ ይብልዕዎሙ፡ ለሰብእ።

And when men could no longer sustain them, the giants turned against them and devoured mankind.

巨人便轉而攻擊世人，吞喫了人類。

7:5

ወወጠኑ፡ የአብሱ፡ በአዕዋፍ፡ ወበአራዊት፡ ወበዘይትሐወስ፡ ወበዓሣት፡ ወሥጋሆሙ፡ በበይናቲሆሙ፡ ተባልዑ፡ ወደመ፡ ሰትዩ፡ እምኔሃ።

And they began to sin against birds, and beasts, and reptiles, and fish, and to devour one another's flesh, and drink the blood.

他們又開始得罪飛鳥、走獸、爬蟲與魚類，彼此吞喫對方的肉，又喝其中的血。

7:6

ወአሜሃ፡ ሰከየቶሙ፡ ለዐማፅያን።

Then the earth laid accusation against the lawless ones.

那時，大地就為這些不法之徒提出控告。
