< Suencuek 9 >
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.
Then God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, “Be fruitful, 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 of you and the dread of you will be upon every living animal on the earth, upon every bird of the sky, upon everything that goes low on the ground, and upon all the fish of the sea. They are given 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.
Every moving thing that lives will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.
4 Tedae maeh kah a hinglu a thii te na ca uh mahpawh.
But you must not eat meat with its life—that is its blood—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.
But for your blood, the life that is in your blood, I will require payment. From the hand of every animal I will require it. From the hand of any man, that is, from the hand of one who has murdered his brother, I will require an accounting for the life of that 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 man's blood, by man will his blood be shed, for it was in the image of God that he made man.
7 Tedae nangmih tah pungtai uh lamtah ping uh. Diklai hmanah luem uh lamtah ping uh.
As for you, be fruitful and multiply, spread throughout the earth and multiply on it.”
8 Te phoeiah Pathen loh Noah neh amah taengkah a ca rhoek te a voek.
Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
9 Te vaengah, “Kamah loh ka paipi he, nang taeng neh nang phoeikah na tiingan taengah,
“As for me, listen! I am going to confirm my covenant with you and with 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 is with you, with the birds, the livestock, and every creature of the earth with you, from all that came out of the ark, to every living creature on the earth.
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.
I hereby confirm my covenant with you, that never again will all flesh be destroyed 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.
God said, “This is the sign of the covenant which I am making between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations:
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 cloud, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
14 Diklai hmanah cingmai ka om sak vaengah pampacung te khaw cingmai dongah tueng ni.
It will come about when I bring a cloud over the earth and the rainbow is seen in the cloud,
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.
then I will call to mind my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. The waters will never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.
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.
The rainbow will be in the clouds and I will see it, in order to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh 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.
Then God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have confirmed between me and all flesh that is 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 that came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. 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 these the whole earth was populated.
20 Te vaengah Noah te lo tawn hlang la om tih misur a tue.
Noah began to be a farmer, and he planted a vineyard.
21 Te dongah misurtui te a ok tih a rhuihmil dongah a dap khui ah rha uh.
He drank some of the wine and became drunk. He was lying uncovered in his tent.
22 Kanaan napa Ham loh a napa kah a yah te a hmuh vaengah kawtpoeng kah a maya rhoi taengah puen.
Then Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father 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.
So Shem and Japheth took a robe and laid it upon both their shoulders, and walked backwards and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned the other way, so 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 wine, he 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.
So he said, “Cursed be Canaan. May he be a servant to his brothers' servants.”
26 Te phoeiah, “Shem kah BOEIPA Pathen te a yoethen saeh lamtah anih ham sal la Kanaan om saeh.
He also said, “May Yahweh, the God of Shem, be blessed, and may Canaan be his servant.
27 Pathen loh Japheth te yoek saeh lamtah Shem kah dap khuiah rhaehrhong saeh. Kanaan tah anih ham sal la om saeh.
May God extend the territory of Japheth, and let him make his home in the tents of Shem. May Canaan be his servant.”
28 Tuilii phoei lamkah Noah te kum ya thum neh kum sawmnga hing coeng.
After the flood, Noah lived three hundred fifty years.
29 Te dongah Noah kah khohnin he a pum la kum ya ko neh kum sawmnga a lo phoeiah duek.
All the days of Noah were nine hundred fifty years, and then he died.
