< تكوين 9 >

وَبَارَكَ اللهُ نُوحاً وَأَبْنَاءَهُ قَائِلاً لَهُمْ: «أَثْمِرُوا وَتَكَاثَرُوا وَامْلَأُوا الأَرْضَ، ١ 1
And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth.
لِتَخْشَكُمْ وَتَرْهَبْكُمْ كُلُّ حَيَوَانَاتِ الأَرْضِ وَطُيُورِ السَّمَاءِ، وَكُلُّ مَا يَتَحَرَّكُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، وَسَمَكُ الْبَحْرِ، فَإِنَّهَا كُلَّهَا قَدْ أَصْبَحَتْ خَاضِعَةً لَكُمْ. ٢ 2
And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every bird of the heavens, with all with which the ground teems, and all the fishes of the sea. They are delivered into your hand.
وَلْيَكُنْ كُلُّ حَيٍّ مُتَحَرِّكٍ طَعَاماً لَكُمْ، فَتَأْكُلُونَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ كَمَا تَأْكُلُونَ الْبُقُولَ الْخَضْرَاءَ الَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُكُمْ. ٣ 3
Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. As the green herb, I have given you all.
وَلَكِنْ لَا تَأْكُلُوا لَحْماً بِدَمِهِ. ٤ 4
But flesh with the life of it, which is the blood of it, ye shall not eat.
وَأُطَالِبُ أَنَا بِدَمِكُمْ لأَنْفُسِكُمْ. مِنْ يَدِ كُلِّ حَيَوَانٍ أُطَالِبُ بِهِ، وَمِنْ يَدِ الإِنْسَانِ أَيْضاً أُطَالِبُ الأَخَ بِنَفْسِ أَخِيهِ الإِنْسَانِ. ٥ 5
And surely your blood, the blood of your lives, I will require. At the hand of every beast I will require it. And at the hand of man, even at the hand of every man's brother, I will require the life of man.
فَسَافِكُ دَمِ الإِنْسَانِ يُحْكَمُ عَلَيْهِ بِسَفْكِ دَمِهِ لأَنَّ اللهَ خَلَقَ الإِنْسَانَ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ. ٦ 6
Whoever sheds man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed. For in the image of God he made man.
أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَأَثْمِرُوا وَتَكَاثَرُوا وَتَوَالَدُوا فِي الأَرْضِ». ٧ 7
And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply. Bring forth abundantly on the earth, and multiply on it.
وَخَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ نُوحاً وَأَبْنَاءَهُ مَعَهُ قَائِلاً: ٨ 8
And God spoke to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
«هَا أَنَا أقْطَعُ عَهْدِي مَعَكُمْ وَمَعْ ذُرِّيَّتِكُمْ، ٩ 9
And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you,
وَمَعْ جَمِيعِ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ الَّتِي مَعَكُمْ، مِنْ طُيُورٍ وَبَهَائِمَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ حَيَوَانَاتِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي خَرَجَتْ مَعَكُمْ مِنَ الْفُلْكِ، مَعْ كُلِّ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ. ١٠ 10
and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ark, even every beast of the earth.
أقْطَعُ عَهْدِي مَعَكُمْ بِأَنْ لَا يُبِيدَ الطُّوفَانُ كُلَّ ذِي جَسَدٍ ثَانِيَةً، وَأَنْ لَا يَكُونَ هُنَاكَ طُوفَانٌ لِيَقْضِيَ عَلَى الْحَيَاةِ فِي الأَرْضِ». ١١ 11
And I will establish my covenant with you. Neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of the flood, nor shall there be a flood any more to destroy the earth.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: «وَهَذِهِ هِيَ عَلامَةُ الْعَهْدِ الأَبَدِيِّ الَّذِي أُقِيمُهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ الَّتِي مَعَكُمْ: ١٢ 12
And God said, This is the sign of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
أَضَعُ قَوْسِي فِي السَّحَابِ فَتَكُونُ عَلامَةَ عَهْدٍ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ الأَرْضِ. ١٣ 13
I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between me and the earth.
فَيَكُونُ عِنْدَمَا أُخَيِّمُ بِالسَّحَابِ فَوْقَ الأَرْضِ، وَتَظْهَرُ الْقَوْسُ، ١٤ 14
And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud.
أَنِّي أَذْكُرُ عَهْدِي الَّذِي بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ مِنْ ذَوَاتِ الْجَسَدِ، فَلا تَتَحَوَّلُ الْمِيَاهُ إِلَى طُوفَانٍ يُبِيدُ كُلَّ حَيَاةٍ. ١٥ 15
And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. And the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
وَتَكُونُ الْقَوْسُ فِي السَّحَابِ، فَأُبْصِرُهَا، وَأَذْكُرُ الْعَهْدَ الأَبَدِيَّ الْمَقْطُوعَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ جَمِيعِ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ». ١٦ 16
And the bow shall be in the cloud, and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
وَقَالَ اللهُ لِنُوحٍ: «هَذِهِ هِيَ عَلامَةُ الْعَهْدِ الَّذِي قَطَعْتُهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ حَيٍّ عَلَى الأَرْضِ». ١٧ 17
And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
أَمَّا أَبْنَاءُ نُوحٍ الَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا مَعَهُ مِنَ الْفُلْكِ فَكَانُوا: سَاماً وَحَاماً وَيَافَثَ. وَحَامٌ هُوَ أَبُو الْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ. ١٨ 18
And the sons of Noah, who went forth from the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth. And Ham is the father of Canaan.
هَؤُلاءِ كَانُوا أَبْنَاءَ نُوحٍ الثَّلاثَةَ الَّذِينَ تَفَرَّعَتْ مِنْهُمْ شُعُوبُ الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا. ١٩ 19
These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was spread over.
وَاشْتَغَلَ نُوحٌ بِالْفِلاحَةِ وَغَرَسَ كَرْماً، ٢٠ 20
And Noah began to be a farmer, and planted a vineyard.
وَشَرِبَ مِنَ الْخَمْرِ فَسَكِرَ وَتَعَرَّى دَاخِلَ خَيْمَتِهِ، ٢١ 21
And he drank of the wine, and was drunken. And he was uncovered within his tent.
فَشَاهَدَ حَامٌ أَبُو الْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ عُرْيَ أَبِيهِ، فَخَرَجَ وَأَخْبَرَ أَخَوَيْهِ اللَّذَيْنِ كَانَا خَارِجاً. ٢٢ 22
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
فَأَخَذَ سَامٌ وَيَافَثُ رِدَاءً وَوَضَعَاهُ عَلَى أَكْتَافِهِمَا وَمَشَيَا الْقَهْقَرِيَّ إِلَى دَاخِلِ الْخَيْمَةِ، وَسَتَرَا عُرْيَ أَبِيهِمَا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَسْتَدِيرَا بِوَجْهَيْهِمَا نَحْوَهُ فَيُبْصِرَا عُرْيَهُ. ٢٣ 23
And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father. And their faces were backward, and they did not see their father's nakedness.
وَعِنْدَمَا أَفَاقَ نُوحٌ مِنْ سُكْرِهِ وَعَلِمَ مَا فَعَلَهُ بِهِ ابْنُهُ الصَّغِيرُ ٢٤ 24
And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him.
قَالَ: «لِيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ مَلْعُوناً، وَلْيَكُنْ عَبْدَ الْعَبِيدِ لإِخْوَتِهِ». ٢٥ 25
And he said, Cursed be Canaan. He shall be a servant of servants to his brothers.
ثُمَّ قَالَ: «تَبَارَكَ اللهُ إِلَهُ سَامٍ. وَلْيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ عَبْداً لَهُ. ٢٦ 26
And he said, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Shem. And let Canaan be his servant.
لِيُوْسِعِ اللهُ لِيَافَثَ فَيَسْكُنَ فِي خِيَامِ سَامٍ. وَلْيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ عَبْداً لَهُ». ٢٧ 27
God enlarge Japheth, and let him dwell in the tents of Shem. And let Canaan be his servant.
وَعَاشَ نُوحٌ بَعْدَ الطُّوفَانِ ثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ سَنَةً، ٢٨ 28
And Noah lived three hundred and fifty years after the flood.
ثُمَّ مَاتَ وَلَهُ مِنَ الْعُمْرِ تِسْعُ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسُونَ سَنَةً. ٢٩ 29
And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years, and he died.
