1 Te vaengah Pathen loh Noah neh a ca rhoek te yoethen a paek tih amih taengah, “Pungtai uh lamtah na ping uh vaengah diklai te khulae uh.
And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.
2 Nangmih kah rhimomnah neh na paepnah tah diklai mulhing boeih so neh vaan kah vaa boeih soah, diklai ah aka colh boeih soah, tuitunli kah nga boeih soah om ni. Nangmih kut ah kam paek coeng.
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.
3 A cungkuem he nangmih taengah kan paek tih mulhing rhulcai boeih khaw baelhing hingsuep bangla nangmih ham cakok la om ni.
Everything that lives and moves will be food for you; just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you all things.
4 Tedae maeh kah a hinglu a thii te na ca uh mahpawh.
But you must not eat meat with its lifeblood still in it.
5 Te phoeiah nangmih kah hinglu ham nangmih kah thii te hmantang la ka suk ni. Mulhing boeih kah kut lamkah khaw ka suk vetih Hlang kut lamkah khaw, a manuca kut lamkah khaw, hlang kah hinglu te ka suk ni.
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:
6 Hlang he Pathen kah muei la a saii dongah hlang kah thii aka long sak hlang tetah amah thii long van ni.
Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man his blood will be shed; for in His own image God has made mankind.
7 Tedae nangmih tah pungtai uh lamtah ping uh. Diklai hmanah luem uh lamtah ping uh.
But as for you, be fruitful and multiply; spread out across the earth and multiply upon it.”
8 Te phoeiah Pathen loh Noah neh amah taengkah a ca rhoek te a voek.
Then God said to Noah and his sons with him,
9 Te vaengah, “Kamah loh ka paipi he, nang taeng neh nang phoeikah na tiingan taengah,
“Behold, I now establish My covenant with you and your descendants after you,
10 nang taengkah aka hing hinglu boeih taengah, vaa taengah, rhamsa taengah khaw, diklai mulhing boeih taengah khaw, nangmih taeng neh lawng khui lamkah aka lo boeih taengah khaw, diklai mulhing boeih taengah khaw, ka cak sak coeng ne.
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.
11 Nangmih taengah ka paipi te ka ling coeng dongah pumsa boeih te tuilii tui neh koep ka huih voel mahpawh. Diklai he phae ham tuilii khaw koep om voel mahpawh he,” a ti.
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.”
12 Te phoeiah Pathen loh, “Kai loh kamah laklo neh nang laklo ah, khaw aka hing hinglu boeih laklo neh kumhal ham nangmih kah thawnpuei taengah ka paek paipi kah miknoek tah he ni.
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:
13 Kai kah pampacung te cingmai dongah ka khueh vetih kai laklo neh diklai laklo ah paipi kah miknoek la om ni.
I have set My rainbow in the clouds, and it will be a sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.
14 Diklai hmanah cingmai ka om sak vaengah pampacung te khaw cingmai dongah tueng ni.
Whenever I form clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,
15 Te vaengah pumsa boeih phae ham tuilii tui koep halo voel boel saeh tila kai laklo neh nangmih laklo ah khaw, aka hing hinglu boeih neh pumsa boeih taengah ka khueh ka paipi te ka poek ni.
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.
16 Cingmai dongah pampacung te a om vaengah ka sawt vetih Pathen laklo neh diklai hmankah aka hing hinglu boeih, pumsa boeih neh ka khueh dungyan paipi te ka poek ni.
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.”
17 Te dongah Pathen loh Noah taengah, “Hekah he tah kai laklo neh diklai hmanah pumsa boeih laklo ah ka ling paipi kah miknoek ni,” a ti nah.
So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between Me and every creature on the earth.”
18 Lawng khui lamkah halo uh vaengah Noah ca rhoek Shem, Ham, Japheth, om uh tih Ham tah Kanaan kah a napa la om.
The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.
19 Amih pathum tah Noah kah a ca rhoek tih amih lamkah ni diklai pum ah a hae uh.
These three were the sons of Noah, and from them the whole earth was populated.
20 Te vaengah Noah te lo tawn hlang la om tih misur a tue.
Now Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard.
21 Te dongah misurtui te a ok tih a rhuihmil dongah a dap khui ah rha uh.
But when he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and uncovered himself inside his tent.
22 Kanaan napa Ham loh a napa kah a yah te a hmuh vaengah kawtpoeng kah a maya rhoi taengah puen.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father’s nakedness and told his two brothers outside.
23 Tedae Shem neh Japheth long tah himbai te a loh rhoi tih amamih rhoi kah a nam ah a khueh rhoi. Te phoeiah a hnuk long caehnawt rhoi tih a napa kah a yah te a khuk pah rhoi. Tedae a hmai khoep a hoi rhoi dongah a napa kah a yah te hmu rhoi pawh.
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.
24 Noah te misurtui a lamloh a haenghang vaengah a capa a noi loh anih soah a saii te a ming.
When Noah awoke from his drunkenness and learned what his youngest son had done to him,
25 Te dongah Kanaan taengah thae a phoei tih, “A maya rhoi taengah sal rhoek khuikah sal la om saeh,” a ti nah.
he said, “Cursed be Canaan! A servant of servants shall he be to his brothers.”
26 Te phoeiah, “Shem kah BOEIPA Pathen te a yoethen saeh lamtah anih ham sal la Kanaan om saeh.
He also declared: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the servant of Shem.
27 Pathen loh Japheth te yoek saeh lamtah Shem kah dap khuiah rhaehrhong saeh. Kanaan tah anih ham sal la om saeh.
May God expand the territory of Japheth; may he dwell in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be his servant.”
28 Tuilii phoei lamkah Noah te kum ya thum neh kum sawmnga hing coeng.
After the flood, Noah lived 350 years.
29 Te dongah Noah kah khohnin he a pum la kum ya ko neh kum sawmnga a lo phoeiah duek.
So Noah lived a total of 950 years, and then he died.
