Mui 9
1 Amalalu, Gode da Nowa: amola ea manolali ilima hahawane dogolegele sia: i. E amane sia: i, “Dilia mano bagohame lama. Dilia mano da osobo bagade soge huluane nabamu da defea.
Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, “I want you to have many children who will live all over the earth.
2 Ohe fi, sio fi amola menabo fi amola esalebe fi amo da osoboba: le ahoa, ilia huluane da dilima beda: mu. Dilia da ohe fi huluane ilima hinawane esalumu.
All the wild animals on the earth and all the birds, all the creatures that scurry across the ground, and all the fish, will be very afraid [DOU] of you. I have put them under your control.
3 Na da musa: dadami fawane dilima ha: i moma: ne i dagoi. Be wali, dilia da amo ohe, sio amola menabo fi liligi huluane manu da defea. Na da amo huluane dili ha: i moma: ne iaha.
Just as I previously said you could eat green plants for food, now I am saying you can eat everything that lives and moves.
4 Be ha: i manu afadafa da dilima sema gala. Hu amo ganodini maga: me dialebe ba: sea, mae moma. Maga: me amo ganodini da esalusu gala. Amaiba: le, Na da amo liligi mae moma: ne sema ilegei.
[It is blood that causes creatures to be alive], therefore you must not eat meat that still has blood in it after the animal is killed. [After you have drained the blood out, you may cook it and eat it].
5 Nowa dunu da dunu eno fane legesea da se iasu ba: mu. Ohe fi da dunu fane legesea, amoma se iasu ima: ne, fane legema.
I insist that murderers must be executed. Animals that kill people must also be executed. The reason that everyone who murders someone else must be executed is that
6 Osobo bagade dunu ilia da Gode Ea hou agoane hamoi dagoi. Amaiba: le, osobo bagade dunu da eno dunu fane legesea, amo dunu ema se iasu da eno osobo bagade dunu amoga fane legemu.
I made people to be like myself [in many ways]. So someone who murders another human being must be executed by others, [because he killed someone who is like me].
7 Dilia mano bagohame osobo bagade nabama: ne lama.
As for you, I want you to produce many children, in order that they and their descendants may live all over the earth.”
8 Amalalu, Gode da Nowa: amola ea mano ilima amane sia: i,
God also said to Noah and his sons,
9 “Na gousa: su Na da dilima amola diligaga fa: no lalelegemu mano dilima ilegesa.
“Listen carefully. I am now making a solemn promise to you and with your descendants,
10 Na da dilima amola esalebe liligi huluane, ohe fi amola sio fi - huluane amo dusagaiga gaga: i, amoma Na gousa: su hamosa.
and with all the living creatures that are with you—including the birds, the livestock, and the wild animals—every living creature on the earth that came out of the boat with you.
11 Na gousa: su dilima da amo sia: ganodini gala. Hano bagade da esalebe liligi huluane bu hame fane legemu. Hano bagade da osobo bagade bu hame gugunufinisimu.
This is the promise that I am making to you: I will never again destroy all living creatures by a flood, or destroy everything else on the earth by a flood.”
12 Wali na eso huluane dialumu gousa: su dilima amola esalebe liligi huluane amoma Na da dawa: digima: ne olelesu imunu.
Then God said to him, “This is the sign to guarantee that I will keep the promise that I am making to you and to all living creatures, a promise that I will keep forever:
13 Na da mu mobi ganodini dadi agoane (sona: ni) legemu. Amo da Na osobo bagadega gousa: su dawa: ma: ne agoane dawa: digima: ne olelesu gala.
[From time to time] I will put a rainbow in the sky. It will remind me of my promise that I have made to you and everything on the earth.
14 Na da mu amo mu mobiga dedebosea, amola dilia da sona: ni sisiga: i ba: sea,
When I cause rain to fall from the clouds, and a rainbow appears in the sky,
15 Na da Na musa: dafawane sia: bu dawa: mu. Amo da osobo bagadega esalebe liligi huluane medoma: ne, hano bagade da bu hamedafa misunu.
it will remind me about the promise that I have made to you and all living creatures, my promise that there will never again be a flood that will destroy all living creatures.
16 Sona: ni da mu mobi ganodini ba: sea, Na da Na eso huluane mae mugululi gousa: su Na da esalebe liligi osobo bagadega esala hamoi, amo bu dawa: ma.
Whenever there is a rainbow in the sky, I will see it, and I will think about the promise that I have made to every living creature that is upon the earth, a promise that I will keep forever.”
17 Na da osobo bagadega esalebe liligi huluane ilima dafawane ilegele sia: i amo dawa: digima: ne olelesu da amo.”
Then God said to Noah, “The rainbow will be the sign of the promise that I have made to all the creatures that live on the earth.”
18 Nowa: egefe udiana amo dusagaiga gadili asi da Sieme, Ha: me amola Ya: ifede. (Ha: me da Ga: ina: ne ea eda.)
The sons of Noah who came out of the boat were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham later became the father of Canaan.
19 Nowa: ea mano udiana da osobo bagade esalebe fi osobo bagadega afagogoi, amo huluane ilima aowalali esalu.
All the people on the earth are descended from those three sons of Noah.
20 Nowa: da ifabi ouligisu dunu. E da degabo osobo bagadega waini efe sagasu.
Noah was a farmer. He planted grapevines.
21 E da waini hano nanu, feloai ba: i. Amalalu, e da abula gisa: le, da: i nabadowane ea abula diasu ganodini dialu.
[When they later produced grapes, he made wine from the grapes]. One day, when he drank too much of the wine, he became drunk, and he lay naked in his tent.
22 Ha: me (Ga: ina: ne eda) da ea eda da: i nabado ba: i dagoi. E gadili asili, amo hou ea ola Sieme amola Ya: ifede elama olelei.
Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father lying naked in the tent. So he went outside and told his two older brothers what he had seen.
23 Be Sieme amola Ya: ifede da abula lale, ela gida amoga ligisili bagidiliwane misini, Nowa: ea da: i nabado dedeboi dagoi. Ela da Nowa: ea da: i nabado mae ba: ma: ne, ela odagi ga ba: legale misi.
Then Shem and Japheth took a large cloth and placed it across their backs, and walked backwards into the tent. They covered their father’s naked body with the cloth. Their faces were turned away from their father, so they did not see him naked.
24 Nowa: da bu wa: legadole, adini ba: i bu hedofai ba: i. E da Ha: me (Ga: ina: ne eda) amo ea hou nabi dagoi.
When Noah woke up [and was sober again], he found out how wrongfully Ham, his youngest son, had behaved toward him.
25 E amane sia: i, “Ga: ina: ne amoma da gagabui aligi dagoi. E da ea yolalali ilia udigili hawa: hamosu dunu esalumu.
He said, “I am cursing Ham’s youngest son, Canaan, and his descendants. They will be like slaves to their uncles.
26 Gode da Sieme ea Hina Gode! Godema hahawane dogolegele nodoma! Ga: ina: ne da Sieme ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu esaloma: mu.
I will ask God to enlarge the territory that belongs to Japheth, and allow his descendants to live peacefully among the descendants of Shem [MTY].
27 Gode da Ya: ifede ea fi bu bagade heda: ma: ne fidimu da defea. Ya: ifede da Sieme ea abula diasu gilisisu ganodini esalumu da defea. Amola Ga: ina: ne da Ya: ifede ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu esaloma: mu.”
And I desire that Canaan’s descendants will be like slaves of Japheth’s descendants.”
28 Hano bagade amo misini, fa: no Nowa: da ode 350 eno esalu.
Noah lived 350 more years after the flood.
29 Amalalu, e bogoi. E da ode 950 agoane esalu bogoi.
He died when he was 950 years old.
