< Genesis 9 >

1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.
Bondye beni Noe ak pitit li yo, li di yo. Fè pitit, fè anpil anpil pitit mete sou tè a.
2 And let the fear of you and the dread of you be upon every animal of the earth, and upon all fowl of the heavens: upon all that moveth [on] the ground; and upon all the fishes of the sea: into your hand are they delivered.
Se pou tout zannimo sou latè, tout zwazo ki nan syèl la, tout bèt vivan ki sou latè, tout pwason ki nan lanmè bese tèt devan nou. Se pou yo pè nou. Mwen ban nou pouvwa sou yo tout.
3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be food for you: as the green herb I give you everything.
Koulye a, nou gen dwa manje tout kalite bèt vivan k'ap mache, tout kalite fèy vèt. Mwen ban nou tout pou manje.
4 Only, the flesh with its life, its blood, ye shall not eat.
Tansèlman, se pa pou n' manje vyann ak tout san ladan l', paske san yon bèt se nanm li.
5 And indeed your blood, [the blood] of your lives, will I require: at the hand of every animal will I require it, and at the hand of Man, at the hand of each [the blood] of his brother, will I require the life of Man.
Konprann sa byen: si yon moun touye nou, m'ap fè l' rann mwen kont. M'ap fè tout bèt ki touye nou rann mwen kont. tout moun ki touye moun parèy yo gen pou rann mwen kont.
6 Whoso sheddeth Man's blood, by Man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God he hath made Man.
Si yon moun touye yon moun, yon lòt moun gen pou touye l' tou, paske Bondye kreye moun pòtre ak li.
7 And ye, be fruitful and multiply: swarm on the earth, and multiply on it.
Nou menm, se pou nou fè pitit, anpil pitit. Gaye kò nou toupatou sou latè, pou pitit nou yo toujou fè anpil pitit tou.
8 And God spoke to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
Bondye pale ankò ak Noe ansanm ak pitit li yo, li di yo:
9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
-Men m'ap pase yon kontra ak nou tout ansanm ak tout pitit pitit k'ap vin apre nou yo.
10 and with every living soul which is with you, fowl as well as cattle, and all the animals of the earth with you, of all that has gone out of the ark — every animal of the earth.
M'ap pase kontra a ak tout bèt vivan ki la avèk nou yo, zwazo, zannimo domestik, bèt nan bwa, avèk tout sa ki soti nan batiman an pou peple sou latè ankò.
11 And I establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood, and henceforth there shall be no flood to destroy the earth.
Wi, m'ap pase kontra mwen ak nou: mwen pwomèt pou m' pa janm voye gwo inondasyon ankò pou detwi tout moun ak tout bèt vivan yo. Konsa, p'ap janm gen gwo inondasyon ankò pou ravaje latè.
12 And God said, This is the sign of the covenant that I set between me and you and every living soul that is with you, for everlasting generations:
Bondye di ankò-Kontra m'ap pase avèk nou ansanm ak tout bèt vivan ki la avèk nou yo, se yon kontra k'ap la pou tout tan. M'ap ban nou yon siy pou li.
13 I set my bow in the clouds, and it shall be for a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
M'ap mete lakansyèl mwen nan syèl la. Men siy m'ap ban nou pou kontra mwen pase ak latè a.
14 And it shall come to pass when I bring clouds over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud,
Chak fwa m'a fè nwaj yo konmanse sanble, lakansyèl la va parèt nan syèl la.
15 and I will remember my covenant which is between me and you and every living soul of all flesh; and the waters shall not henceforth become a flood to destroy all flesh.
Lè sa a, m'a chonje kontra mwen te fè avèk nou ansanm avèk tout kalite bèt vivan yo. p'ap janm gen gwo inondasyon ankò ki pou detwi tout moun ak tout bèt k'ap viv sou latè.
16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living soul of all flesh that is upon the earth.
Lè lakansyèl la va parèt nan syèl la, m'a wè l', m'a chonje kontra mwen te pase pou tout tan ak tout moun ansanm ak tout kalite bèt k'ap viv sou latè.
17 And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
Sa se siy kontra mwen pase ak tout moun ansanm ak tout bèt k'ap viv sou latè. Se konsa Bondye te pale ak Noe.
18 And the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth. And Ham is the father of Canaan.
Men non pitit Noe yo ki te soti nan batiman an: Sèm, Kam ak Jafè. Kam se te papa Kanaran.
19 These three are the sons of Noah; and from these was [the population of] the whole earth spread abroad.
Se twa pitit Noe sa yo ki peple mete moun sou tout latè.
20 And Noah began [to be] a husbandman, and planted a vineyard.
Noe se premye moun ki travay latè. Li plante yon jaden rezen.
21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken, and he uncovered himself in his tent.
Yon jou, apre li te fin bwè diven, li sou. Li wete tout rad sou li, li kouche toutouni anba tant li.
22 And Ham the father of Canaan saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren outside.
Lè Kam, papa Kanaran, wè papa l' toutouni, li ale di de frè l' yo sa.
23 And Shem and Japheth took the upper garment and both laid [it] upon their shoulders, and went backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father. And their faces were turned away, that they saw not their father's nakedness.
Men, Sèm ak Jafè pran yon gwo rad, yo chak pran yon bout, yo pase l' dèyè do yo, yo kenbe l' anwo zepòl yo. Yo mache pa do, yo antre, yo kouvri papa yo san yo pa janm vire tèt yo gade dèyè. Konsa yo pa wè papa yo toutouni.
24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and learned what his youngest son had done to him.
Lè Noe soti anba toudisman diven l' lan, yo di l' sa dezyèm pitit gason l' lan te fè l'.
25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; Let him be a bondman of bondmen to his brethren.
Li di. Madichon pou Kanaran! Se pou l' tounen dènye klas esklav frè l' yo.
26 And he said, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Shem, And let Canaan be his bondman.
Li di ankò. Lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye Sèm lan. Se pou Kanaran tounen esklav Sèm.
27 Let God enlarge Japheth, and let him dwell in the tents of Shem, And let Canaan be his bondman.
Se pou Bondye mete sou byen Jafè yo. Se pou pitit pitit Jafè yo viv byen ak pitit Sèm yo. Se pou Kanaran tounen esklav yo.
28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
Apre gwo inondasyon an, Noe viv twasansenkantan (350 an).
29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.
Lè l' mouri, li te gen nèfsansenkantan (950 an).
