< تكوين 9 >
وَبَارَكَ اللهُ نُوحاً وَأَبْنَاءَهُ قَائِلاً لَهُمْ: «أَثْمِرُوا وَتَكَاثَرُوا وَامْلَأُوا الأَرْضَ، | ١ 1 |
And God blesses Noah and his sons, and says 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 your fear and your dread is on every beast of the earth, and on every bird of the heavens, on all that creeps on the ground, and on all fishes of the sea—into your hand they have been given.
وَلْيَكُنْ كُلُّ حَيٍّ مُتَحَرِّكٍ طَعَاماً لَكُمْ، فَتَأْكُلُونَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ كَمَا تَأْكُلُونَ الْبُقُولَ الْخَضْرَاءَ الَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُكُمْ. | ٣ 3 |
Every creeping thing that is alive, to you it is for food; as the green herb I have given to you the whole;
وَلَكِنْ لَا تَأْكُلُوا لَحْماً بِدَمِهِ. | ٤ 4 |
only flesh in its life—its blood—you do not eat.
وَأُطَالِبُ أَنَا بِدَمِكُمْ لأَنْفُسِكُمْ. مِنْ يَدِ كُلِّ حَيَوَانٍ أُطَالِبُ بِهِ، وَمِنْ يَدِ الإِنْسَانِ أَيْضاً أُطَالِبُ الأَخَ بِنَفْسِ أَخِيهِ الإِنْسَانِ. | ٥ 5 |
And only your blood for your lives do I require; from the hand of every living thing I require it, and from the hand of man, from the hand of every man’s brother I 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 is his blood shed: for in the image of God has He made man.
أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَأَثْمِرُوا وَتَكَاثَرُوا وَتَوَالَدُوا فِي الأَرْضِ». | ٧ 7 |
And you, be fruitful and multiply, teem in the earth, and multiply in it.”
وَخَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ نُوحاً وَأَبْنَاءَهُ مَعَهُ قَائِلاً: | ٨ 8 |
And God speaks to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
«هَا أَنَا أقْطَعُ عَهْدِي مَعَكُمْ وَمَعْ ذُرِّيَّتِكُمْ، | ٩ 9 |
“And I, behold, I am establishing 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 which [is] with you, among bird, among livestock, and among every beast of the earth with you, from all who are going out of the Ark—to 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 have established My covenant with you, and all flesh is not cut off anymore by waters of a flood, and there is not a flood to destroy the earth anymore.”
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: «وَهَذِهِ هِيَ عَلامَةُ الْعَهْدِ الأَبَدِيِّ الَّذِي أُقِيمُهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ الَّتِي مَعَكُمْ: | ١٢ 12 |
And God says, “This is a token of the covenant which I am giving between Me and you, and every living creature that [is] with you, to continuous generations;
أَضَعُ قَوْسِي فِي السَّحَابِ فَتَكُونُ عَلامَةَ عَهْدٍ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ الأَرْضِ. | ١٣ 13 |
My bow I have given in the cloud, and it has been for a token of a covenant between Me and the earth;
فَيَكُونُ عِنْدَمَا أُخَيِّمُ بِالسَّحَابِ فَوْقَ الأَرْضِ، وَتَظْهَرُ الْقَوْسُ، | ١٤ 14 |
and it has come to pass (in My sending a cloud over the earth) that the bow has been 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 have remembered My covenant which is between Me and you, and every living creature among all flesh, and the waters no longer 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 has been in the cloud, and I have seen it—to remember the perpetual covenant between God and every living creature among all flesh which [is] on the earth.”
وَقَالَ اللهُ لِنُوحٍ: «هَذِهِ هِيَ عَلامَةُ الْعَهْدِ الَّذِي قَطَعْتُهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ حَيٍّ عَلَى الأَرْضِ». | ١٧ 17 |
And God says to Noah, “This [is] a token of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that [is] on 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 are going out of the Ark are Shem, and Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is father of Canaan.
هَؤُلاءِ كَانُوا أَبْنَاءَ نُوحٍ الثَّلاثَةَ الَّذِينَ تَفَرَّعَتْ مِنْهُمْ شُعُوبُ الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا. | ١٩ 19 |
These three [are] sons of Noah, and from these has all the earth been overspread.
وَاشْتَغَلَ نُوحٌ بِالْفِلاحَةِ وَغَرَسَ كَرْماً، | ٢٠ 20 |
And Noah remains a man of the ground, and plants a vineyard,
وَشَرِبَ مِنَ الْخَمْرِ فَسَكِرَ وَتَعَرَّى دَاخِلَ خَيْمَتِهِ، | ٢١ 21 |
and drinks of the wine, and is drunken, and uncovers himself in the midst of the tent.
فَشَاهَدَ حَامٌ أَبُو الْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ عُرْيَ أَبِيهِ، فَخَرَجَ وَأَخْبَرَ أَخَوَيْهِ اللَّذَيْنِ كَانَا خَارِجاً. | ٢٢ 22 |
And Ham, father of Canaan, sees the nakedness of his father, and declares to 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 takes—Japheth also—the garment, and they place on the shoulder of them both, and go backward, and cover the nakedness of their father; and their faces [are] backward, and their father’s nakedness they have not seen.
وَعِنْدَمَا أَفَاقَ نُوحٌ مِنْ سُكْرِهِ وَعَلِمَ مَا فَعَلَهُ بِهِ ابْنُهُ الصَّغِيرُ | ٢٤ 24 |
And Noah awakens from his wine, and knows that which his young son has done to him,
قَالَ: «لِيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ مَلْعُوناً، وَلْيَكُنْ عَبْدَ الْعَبِيدِ لإِخْوَتِهِ». | ٢٥ 25 |
and says: “Cursed [is] Canaan, Servant of servants he is to his brothers.”
ثُمَّ قَالَ: «تَبَارَكَ اللهُ إِلَهُ سَامٍ. وَلْيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ عَبْداً لَهُ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And he says: “Blessed of my God YHWH [is] Shem, And Canaan is servant to him.
لِيُوْسِعِ اللهُ لِيَافَثَ فَيَسْكُنَ فِي خِيَامِ سَامٍ. وَلْيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ عَبْداً لَهُ». | ٢٧ 27 |
God gives beauty to Japheth, And he dwells in tents of Shem, And Canaan is servant to him.”
وَعَاشَ نُوحٌ بَعْدَ الطُّوفَانِ ثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ سَنَةً، | ٢٨ 28 |
And Noah lives after the flood three hundred and fifty years;
ثُمَّ مَاتَ وَلَهُ مِنَ الْعُمْرِ تِسْعُ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسُونَ سَنَةً. | ٢٩ 29 |
and all the days of Noah are nine hundred and fifty years, and he dies.
