< Genesis 9 >
1 Sithaw mah Noah hoi a caanawk to tahamhoihaih paek, nihcae khaeah, athaih athai oh, pung oh loe, long ah koi oh, tiah a naa.
And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
2 Long nui ih moi boih, van ih tavaa boih, kavak angtawt thaih long nui ih moi boih, tuipui nui ih tanganawk boih mah, nangcae to zii o ueloe, tasoeh o tih; to moinawk to nangcae ban ah kang paek boih boeh.
And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth [upon] the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
3 Kangtawt moe, hinghaih tawn angtawt thaih hmuen boih to nang hanah buh ah om tih; kahing aannawk hoi hmuen boih nangcae hanah kang paek boeh.
Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
4 Toe hinghaih tawn moi ih athii to caa o hmah.
But flesh with the life thereof, [which is] the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
5 Na hing o haih, nangcae ih athii to ka suk han; kami hoi moinawk to lok ka caek boih han; kami boih mah angmacae nawkamya ih athii to palong o pongah lok ka caek han.
And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man’s brother will I require the life of man.
6 Sithaw angmah ih krang hoi kanghmong ah kami to sak pongah, kami ih athii palong kami loe, anih doeh kami mah athii longsak toeng tih.
Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
7 Toe nang loe, thingthai athai ah loe, pung ah; long ah caa sah o mang ah loe, pung oh, tiah a naa.
And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.
8 To pacoengah Sithaw mah Noah hoi a caanawk khaeah,
And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
9 Khenah, nang hoi lokmaihaih to ka sak moe, nang pacoeng kaom na caanawk,
And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
10 nang hoi nawnto kaom hinghaih tawn moinawk, tavaanawk, pacah ih moinawk, long ih moisannawk boih, palong thung hoi tacawt moinawk boih, long ih moinawk boih hoiah doeh, lokmaihaih to ka sak.
And with every living creature that [is] with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.
11 Nang hoi ka sak ih lokmaihaih to ka caksak han; hinghaih tawn moinawk boih loe natuek naah doeh tui uemhaih hoiah kam rosak mak ai boeh; long amrosak hanah natuek naah doeh tui uemhaih thok mak ai boeh.
And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
12 Sithaw mah, Hae loe nang hoi kai salak, nang hoi nawnto kaom moinawk boih salakah dungzan khoek to ka sak ih lokmaih angmathaih ah om tih.
And God said, This [is] the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that [is] with you, for perpetual generations:
13 Tamai thungah khungzae to ka suek, to loe kai hoi long salakah lokmaih angmathaih ah om tih.
I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
14 Long ah tamai to ka taboksak naah, tamai nuiah khungzae to amtueng tih;
And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
15 moinawk amrosak boih hanah tui uemhaih om let mak ai boeh, tiah aihnik salak hoi hinghaih tawn moinawk boih salakah ka sak ih, lokmaihaih to ka pahnet mak ai.
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.
16 Tamai thungah khungzae kamzam ka hnuk nathung, long nui ih hinghaih tawn moinawk boih hoi Sithaw salakah sak ih dungzan lokmaihaih to ka poek poe han, tiah thuih.
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.
17 Sithaw mah Noah khaeah, Hae loe kai hoi long nuiah kaom hinghaih tawn moinawk boih salakah ka sak ih, lokmaihaih ah oh, tiah a naa.
And God said unto Noah, This [is] the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that [is] upon the earth.
18 Palong thung hoi tacawt Noah ih capa thumtonawk loe, Shem, Ham hoi Japheth; Ham loe Kanan ih ampa ah oh.
And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham [is] the father of Canaan.
19 Nichae loe Noah ih caa ah oh o moe, nihcae thung hoiah ni long boih ah kaminawk to pung o.
These [are] the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.
20 Noah loe lawk phrawk kami ah oh pongah, misur takha to sak;
And Noah began [to be] an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
21 anih loe misurtui to naek moe, misurtui paquih pongah, angmah ih kahni imthung ah bangkrai ah angsong sut.
And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
22 Kanaan ampa Ham loe bangkrai ah kaom ampa to hnuk naah, tasa bangah kaom amya hnik khaeah a thuih pae.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
23 Toe Shem hoi Japheth mah loe kahni to lak hoi moe, palaeng ah a thuengh hoi tahang pacoengah, hnukbang angqoi hoi moe, bangkrai ah kaom ampa to a khuk hoi; hnukbang angqoi hoi pongah bangkrai ah kaom ampa to hnu hoi ai.
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 saw not their father’s nakedness.
24 Noah misurtui paquihaih cai naah loe, a capa kanawk mah a nuiah sak ih hmuen to panoek.
And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
25 To naah Kanaan loe tangoenghaih to zok nasoe loe, amya hnik ih tamna ah om nasoe, tiah a naa.
And he said, Cursed [be] Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
26 To pacoengah anih mah, Shem ih Angraeng Sithaw loe tahamhoihaih om nasoe loe, Kanaan loe Shem ih tamna ah om nasoe.
And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
27 Sithaw mah Japheth ih prae to kawksak nasoe loe, Japheth loe Shem ih kahni im ah om nasoe; Kanaan loe anih ih tamna ah om nasoe, tiah a naa.
God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
28 Noah loe tui uemhaih phak pacoengah, saning cumvai thum, qui pangato hing vop.
And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
29 Noah loe saning cumvai takawt, qui pangato hing pacoengah duek.
And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
