Postanak 9
1 Tada Bog blagoslovi Nou i njegove sinove i reče im: “Plodite se i množite i zemlju napunite.
God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the earth.
2 Neka vas se boje i od vas strahuju sve životinje na zemlji, sve ptice u zraku, sve što se po zemlji kreće i sve ribe u moru: u vaše su ruke predane.
The fear of you and the dread of you will be on every animal of the earth, and on every bird of the sky. Everything that moves along the ground, and all the fish of the sea, are delivered into your hand.
3 Sve što se kreće i živi neka vam bude za hranu: sve vam dajem, kao što vam dadoh zeleno bilje.
Every moving thing that lives will be food for you. As I gave you the green herb, I have given everything to you.
4 Samo ne smijete jesti mesa u kojem je još duša, to jest njegova krv.
But flesh with its life, that is, its blood, you shall not eat.
5 A za vašu krv, za vaš život, tražit ću obračun: tražit ću ga od svake životinje; i od čovjeka za njegova druga tražit ću obračun za ljudski život.
I will surely require accounting for your life’s blood. At the hand of every animal I will require it. At the hand of man, even at the hand of every man’s brother, I will require the life of man.
6 Tko prolije krv čovjekovu, njegovu će krv čovjek proliti! Jer na sliku Božju stvoren je čovjek!
Whoever sheds man’s blood, his blood will be shed by man, for God made man in his own image.
7 A vi, plodite se, i množite i zemlju napunite, i podložite je sebi!”
Be fruitful and multiply. Increase abundantly in the earth, and multiply in it.”
8 Još reče Bog Noi i njegovim sinovima s njim:
God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
9 “A ja, evo, sklapam svoj Savez s vama i s vašim potomstvom poslije vas
“As for me, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
10 i sa svim živim stvorovima što su s vama: s pticama, sa stokom, sa zvijerima - sa svime što je s vama izišlo iz korablje - sa svim živim stvorovima na zemlji.
and with every living creature that is with you: the birds, the livestock, and every animal of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ship, even every animal of the earth.
11 Držat ću se ja svog Saveza s vama te nikada više vode potopne neće uništiti živa bića niti će ikad više potop zemlju opustošiti.”
I will establish my covenant with you: All flesh will not be cut off any more by the waters of the flood. There will never again be a flood to destroy the earth.”
12 I reče Bog: “A ovo znamen je Saveza koji stavljam između sebe i vas i svih živih bića što su s vama, za naraštaje buduće:
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 Dugu svoju u oblak stavljam, da zalogom bude Savezu između mene i zemlje.
I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be a sign of a covenant between me and the earth.
14 Kad oblake nad zemlju navučem i duga se u oblaku pokaže,
When I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,
15 spomenut ću se Saveza svoga, Saveza između mene i vas i stvorenja svakoga živog: potopa više neće biti da uništi svako biće.
I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters will no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
16 U oblaku kad se pojavi duga, ja ću je vidjeti i vjekovnog ću se sjećati Saveza između Boga i svake žive duše, svakog tijela na zemlji.”
The rainbow will be in the cloud. I will look at it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”
17 I reče Bog Noi: “To neka je znak Saveza koji sam postavio između sebe i svih živih bića što su na zemlji.”
God said to Noah, “This is the token of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.”
18 Sinovi Noini, koji su iz korablje izišli, bijahu: Šem, Ham i Jafet. Ham je praotac Kanaanaca.
The sons of Noah who went out from the ship were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham is the father of Canaan.
19 Ovo su trojica Noinih sinova i od njih se sav svijet razgranao.
These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.
20 Noa, zemljoradnik, zasadio vinograd.
Noah began to be a farmer, and planted a vineyard.
21 Napio se vina i opio, pa se otkrio nasred šatora.
He drank of the wine and got drunk. He was uncovered within his tent.
22 Ham, praotac Kanaanaca, opazi oca gola pa to kaza dvojici svoje braće vani.
Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
23 Šem i Jafet uzmu ogrtač, obojica ga prebace sebi preko ramena pa njime, idući natraške, pokriju očevu golotinju. Lica im bijahu okrenuta na drugu stranu, tako te ne vidješe oca gola.
Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it on both their shoulders, went in backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were backwards, and they didn’t see their father’s nakedness.
24 Kad se Noa otrijeznio od vina i saznao što mu je učinio najmlađi sin, reče:
Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him.
25 “Neka je proklet Kanaanac, braći svojoj najniži sluga nek' bude!”
He said, “Canaan is cursed. He will be a servant of servants to his brothers.”
26 Onda nastavi: “Blagoslovljen Jahve, Šemov Bog, Kanaanac nek' mu je sluga!
He said, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.
27 Nek Bog raširi Jafeta da prebiva pod šatorima Šemovim, Kanaanac nek' mu je sluga!”
May God enlarge Japheth. Let him dwell in the tents of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.”
28 Poslije Potopa Noa poživje trista pedeset godina.
Noah lived three hundred fifty years after the flood.
29 U svemu poživje Noa devet stotina pedeset godina; potom umrije.
All the days of Noah were nine hundred fifty years, and then he died.
