< 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 |
The fear and dread of you will fall on every living creature on the earth, every bird of the air, every creature that crawls on the ground, and all the fish 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 |
Everything that lives and moves will be food for you; just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you all things.
وَلَكِنْ لَا تَأْكُلُوا لَحْماً بِدَمِهِ. | ٤ 4 |
But you must not eat meat with its lifeblood still in it.
وَأُطَالِبُ أَنَا بِدَمِكُمْ لأَنْفُسِكُمْ. مِنْ يَدِ كُلِّ حَيَوَانٍ أُطَالِبُ بِهِ، وَمِنْ يَدِ الإِنْسَانِ أَيْضاً أُطَالِبُ الأَخَ بِنَفْسِ أَخِيهِ الإِنْسَانِ. | ٥ 5 |
And surely I will require the life of any man or beast by whose hand your lifeblood is shed. I will demand an accounting from anyone who takes the life of his fellow man:
فَسَافِكُ دَمِ الإِنْسَانِ يُحْكَمُ عَلَيْهِ بِسَفْكِ دَمِهِ لأَنَّ اللهَ خَلَقَ الإِنْسَانَ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ. | ٦ 6 |
Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man his blood will be shed; for in His own image God has made mankind.
أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَأَثْمِرُوا وَتَكَاثَرُوا وَتَوَالَدُوا فِي الأَرْضِ». | ٧ 7 |
But as for you, be fruitful and multiply; spread out across the earth and multiply upon it.”
وَخَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ نُوحاً وَأَبْنَاءَهُ مَعَهُ قَائِلاً: | ٨ 8 |
Then God said to Noah and his sons with him,
«هَا أَنَا أقْطَعُ عَهْدِي مَعَكُمْ وَمَعْ ذُرِّيَّتِكُمْ، | ٩ 9 |
“Behold, I now establish My covenant with you and your descendants 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 was with you—the birds, the livestock, and every beast of the earth—every living thing that came out of the ark.
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 establish My covenant with you: Never again will all life be cut off by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood 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 I am making between Me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come:
أَضَعُ قَوْسِي فِي السَّحَابِ فَتَكُونُ عَلامَةَ عَهْدٍ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ الأَرْضِ. | ١٣ 13 |
I have set My rainbow in the clouds, and it will be a sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.
فَيَكُونُ عِنْدَمَا أُخَيِّمُ بِالسَّحَابِ فَوْقَ الأَرْضِ، وَتَظْهَرُ الْقَوْسُ، | ١٤ 14 |
Whenever I form clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,
أَنِّي أَذْكُرُ عَهْدِي الَّذِي بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ مِنْ ذَوَاتِ الْجَسَدِ، فَلا تَتَحَوَّلُ الْمِيَاهُ إِلَى طُوفَانٍ يُبِيدُ كُلَّ حَيَاةٍ. | ١٥ 15 |
I will remember My covenant between Me and you and every living creature of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.
وَتَكُونُ الْقَوْسُ فِي السَّحَابِ، فَأُبْصِرُهَا، وَأَذْكُرُ الْعَهْدَ الأَبَدِيَّ الْمَقْطُوعَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ جَمِيعِ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ». | ١٦ 16 |
And whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of every kind that is on the earth.”
وَقَالَ اللهُ لِنُوحٍ: «هَذِهِ هِيَ عَلامَةُ الْعَهْدِ الَّذِي قَطَعْتُهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ حَيٍّ عَلَى الأَرْضِ». | ١٧ 17 |
So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between Me and every creature on the earth.”
أَمَّا أَبْنَاءُ نُوحٍ الَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا مَعَهُ مِنَ الْفُلْكِ فَكَانُوا: سَاماً وَحَاماً وَيَافَثَ. وَحَامٌ هُوَ أَبُو الْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ. | ١٨ 18 |
The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was 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 them the whole earth was populated.
وَاشْتَغَلَ نُوحٌ بِالْفِلاحَةِ وَغَرَسَ كَرْماً، | ٢٠ 20 |
Now Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard.
وَشَرِبَ مِنَ الْخَمْرِ فَسَكِرَ وَتَعَرَّى دَاخِلَ خَيْمَتِهِ، | ٢١ 21 |
But when he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and uncovered himself inside his tent.
فَشَاهَدَ حَامٌ أَبُو الْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ عُرْيَ أَبِيهِ، فَخَرَجَ وَأَخْبَرَ أَخَوَيْهِ اللَّذَيْنِ كَانَا خَارِجاً. | ٢٢ 22 |
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father’s nakedness 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 |
Then Shem and Japheth took a garment and placed it across their shoulders, and walking backward, they covered their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned away so that they did not see their father’s nakedness.
وَعِنْدَمَا أَفَاقَ نُوحٌ مِنْ سُكْرِهِ وَعَلِمَ مَا فَعَلَهُ بِهِ ابْنُهُ الصَّغِيرُ | ٢٤ 24 |
When Noah awoke from his drunkenness and learned what his youngest son had done to him,
قَالَ: «لِيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ مَلْعُوناً، وَلْيَكُنْ عَبْدَ الْعَبِيدِ لإِخْوَتِهِ». | ٢٥ 25 |
he said, “Cursed be Canaan! A servant of servants shall he be to his brothers.”
ثُمَّ قَالَ: «تَبَارَكَ اللهُ إِلَهُ سَامٍ. وَلْيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ عَبْداً لَهُ. | ٢٦ 26 |
He also declared: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the servant of Shem.
لِيُوْسِعِ اللهُ لِيَافَثَ فَيَسْكُنَ فِي خِيَامِ سَامٍ. وَلْيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ عَبْداً لَهُ». | ٢٧ 27 |
May God expand the territory of Japheth; may he dwell in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be his servant.”
وَعَاشَ نُوحٌ بَعْدَ الطُّوفَانِ ثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ سَنَةً، | ٢٨ 28 |
After the flood, Noah lived 350 years.
ثُمَّ مَاتَ وَلَهُ مِنَ الْعُمْرِ تِسْعُ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسُونَ سَنَةً. | ٢٩ 29 |
So Noah lived a total of 950 years, and then he died.
