Genesis 9
1 And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.
Sithaw mah Noah hoi a caanawk to tahamhoihaih paek, nihcae khaeah, athaih athai oh, pung oh loe, long ah koi oh, tiah a naa.
2 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.
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.
3 Everything that lives and moves will be food for you; just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you all things.
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.
4 But you must not eat meat with its lifeblood still in it.
Toe hinghaih tawn moi ih athii to caa o hmah.
5 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:
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.
6 Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man his blood will be shed; for in His own image God has made mankind.
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.
7 But as for you, be fruitful and multiply; spread out across the earth and multiply upon it.”
Toe nang loe, thingthai athai ah loe, pung ah; long ah caa sah o mang ah loe, pung oh, tiah a naa.
8 Then God said to Noah and his sons with him,
To pacoengah Sithaw mah Noah hoi a caanawk khaeah,
9 “Behold, I now establish My covenant with you and your descendants after you,
Khenah, nang hoi lokmaihaih to ka sak moe, nang pacoeng kaom na caanawk,
10 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.
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.
11 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.”
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.
12 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:
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.
13 I have set My rainbow in the clouds, and it will be a sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.
Tamai thungah khungzae to ka suek, to loe kai hoi long salakah lokmaih angmathaih ah om tih.
14 Whenever I form clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,
Long ah tamai to ka taboksak naah, tamai nuiah khungzae to amtueng tih;
15 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.
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.
16 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.”
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.
17 So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between Me and every creature on the earth.”
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.
18 The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.
Palong thung hoi tacawt Noah ih capa thumtonawk loe, Shem, Ham hoi Japheth; Ham loe Kanan ih ampa ah oh.
19 These three were the sons of Noah, and from them the whole earth was populated.
Nichae loe Noah ih caa ah oh o moe, nihcae thung hoiah ni long boih ah kaminawk to pung o.
20 Now Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard.
Noah loe lawk phrawk kami ah oh pongah, misur takha to sak;
21 But when he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and uncovered himself inside his tent.
anih loe misurtui to naek moe, misurtui paquih pongah, angmah ih kahni imthung ah bangkrai ah angsong sut.
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father’s nakedness and told his two brothers outside.
Kanaan ampa Ham loe bangkrai ah kaom ampa to hnuk naah, tasa bangah kaom amya hnik khaeah a thuih pae.
23 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.
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.
24 When Noah awoke from his drunkenness and learned what his youngest son had done to him,
Noah misurtui paquihaih cai naah loe, a capa kanawk mah a nuiah sak ih hmuen to panoek.
25 he said, “Cursed be Canaan! A servant of servants shall he be to his brothers.”
To naah Kanaan loe tangoenghaih to zok nasoe loe, amya hnik ih tamna ah om nasoe, tiah a naa.
26 He also declared: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the servant of Shem.
To pacoengah anih mah, Shem ih Angraeng Sithaw loe tahamhoihaih om nasoe loe, Kanaan loe Shem ih tamna ah om nasoe.
27 May God expand the territory of Japheth; may he dwell in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be his servant.”
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.
28 After the flood, Noah lived 350 years.
Noah loe tui uemhaih phak pacoengah, saning cumvai thum, qui pangato hing vop.
29 So Noah lived a total of 950 years, and then he died.
Noah loe saning cumvai takawt, qui pangato hing pacoengah duek.
