Genesis 9
1 God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the earth.
Konsa, Bondye te beni Noé avèk fis li yo. Li te di yo: “Se pou nou vin fekon, miltipliye, e ranpli latè.
2 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.
Lakrent nou, ak laperèz nou va vini sou chak bèt latè, ak chak zwazo syèl la. Tout bagay ki kouri atè, ak tout pwason lanmè, tout livre nan men nou.
3 Every moving thing that lives will be food for you. As I gave you the green herb, I have given everything to you.
Chak bagay ki fè mouvman e ki vivan va sèvi kòm manje pou nou. Mwen bannou tout, jan Mwen te bay plant vèt la.
4 But flesh with its life, that is, its blood, you shall not eat.
“Sèlman, nou pa pou manje chè avèk lavi li, sa vle di san li.
5 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.
Anverite, Mwen va egzije san lavi a paske se pa m. Menm soti nan chak bèt Mwen va egzije li. Epi sou chak òm, sou frè a chak òm, Mwen va egzije lavi a yon moun.
6 Whoever sheds man’s blood, his blood will be shed by man, for God made man in his own image.
“Nenpòt moun ki vèse san lòm, pa lòm san pa l va vèse, paske nan imaj a Bondye, Li te fè lòm.
7 Be fruitful and multiply. Increase abundantly in the earth, and multiply in it.”
Epi pou nou, se pou nou vin fekon, e miltipliye. Peple tè a anpil, e miltipliye ladann.”
8 God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
Alò, Bondye te pale avèk Noé ak fis li yo avè l. Li te di:
9 “As for me, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
“Gade byen, Mwen menm, Mwen vin etabli akò Mwen avèk nou, e avèk desandan aprè nou yo,
10 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.
epi avèk chak kreyati vivan ki avè w: zwazo, bèt kay yo, ak chak bèt ki sou latè avèk nou, tout sa ki sòti nan lach la, menm chak bèt sou tè a.
11 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.”
“Mwen etabli akò Mwen avèk nou: Tout chè p ap janm koupe ankò pa dlo delij, ni p ap gen delij ankò pou detwi tè a.”
12 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:
Bondye te di: “Sa se sign akò ke m ap fè antre Mwen avèk nou, e avèk chak kreyati vivan ki la avèk nou, jis rive pou tout jenerasyon k ap vini yo.
13 I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be a sign of a covenant between me and the earth.
Mwen mete lakansyèl Mwen nan nwaj la, epi l ap sèvi kòm yon sign pou akò antre Mwen menm avèk latè a.
14 When I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,
Li va rive ke lè m mennen yon nwaj sou latè, ke lakansyèl la ap vizib nan nwaj la,
15 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.
epi Mwen va sonje akò ki antre Mwen menm avèk nou an, avèk chak kreyati vivan de tout chè. Epi janmen ankò dlo p ap vin yon delij pou detwi tout chè.
16 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.”
“Lè lakansyèl la nan nwaj la, Mwen va gade sou li, pou m sonje akò ki jis pou tout tan antre Bondye ak tout kreyati vivan pou tout chè ki sou latè yo.”
17 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.”
Epi Bondye te di a Noé: “Sa se sign akò ke Mwen te etabli antre Mwen ak tout chè ki rete sou tè a.”
18 The sons of Noah who went out from the ship were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham is the father of Canaan.
Alò, fis Noé yo ki te soti nan lach la se te Sem, Cham, ak Japhet. Epi Cham te papa Canaan.
19 These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.
Twa sila yo se te fis Noé yo, e nan twa sila yo tout tè a te vin peple.
20 Noah began to be a farmer, and planted a vineyard.
Alò, Noé te kòmanse kiltive tè a. Li te plante yon chan rezen.
21 He drank of the wine and got drunk. He was uncovered within his tent.
Li te bwè diven, e li te vin sou. Konsa li te dekouvri kò li anndan tant li an.
22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
Cham, papa Canaan nan, te wè papa li toutouni, e li te pale sa a frè l yo deyò a.
23 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 did not see their father’s nakedness.
Men Sem avèk Japhet te pran yon abiman, yo te mete li sou chak zepòl li, e yo te mache an aryè pou kouvri nidite papa yo. Figi yo te vire akote pou yo pa wè nidite li.
24 Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him.
Lè Noé te leve nan dòmi aprè diven an, li te konnen sa ke pi jenn fis li a te fè l la.
25 He said, “Canaan is cursed. He will be a servant of servants to his brothers.”
Konsa li te di: “Canaan se modi. Se sèvitè l ap ye anvè frè li yo.”
26 He said, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.
Li te di osi: “Beni se SENYÈ a, Bondye a Cham nan. Canaan va sèvitè li.
27 May God enlarge Japheth. Let him dwell in the tents of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.”
Ke Bondye agrandi Japhet. Kite li viv nan tant Sem yo. Kite Canaan vin sèvitè li.”
28 Noah lived three hundred fifty years after the flood.
Noé te viv twa-san-senkant ane aprè delij la.
29 All the days of Noah were nine hundred fifty years, and then he died.
Alò, tout jou a Noé yo te nèf-san-senkant ane, e li te mouri.
