< Genesis 9 >
1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and 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 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
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 liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
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 the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
“Sèlman, nou pa pou manje chè avèk lavi li, sa vle di san li.
5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man’s brother will I 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 Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
“Nenpòt moun ki vèse san lòm, pa lòm san pa l va vèse, paske nan imaj a Bondye, Li te fè lòm.
7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.
Epi pou nou, se pou nou vin fekon, e miltipliye. Peple tè a anpil, e miltipliye ladann.”
8 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
Alò, Bondye te pale avèk Noé ak fis li yo avè l. Li te di:
9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed 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, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast 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 And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more 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 And 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 do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token 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 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall 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 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall 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 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 creature of all flesh that is upon 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 And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon 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 And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and 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 are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.
Twa sila yo se te fis Noé yo, e nan twa sila yo tout tè a te vin peple.
20 And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
Alò, Noé te kòmanse kiltive tè a. Li te plante yon chan rezen.
21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and 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 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
Cham, papa Canaan nan, te wè papa li toutouni, e li te pale sa a frè l yo deyò a.
23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not 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 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto 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 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
Konsa li te di: “Canaan se modi. Se sèvitè l ap ye anvè frè li yo.”
26 And he said, Blessed be Yhwh God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
Li te di osi: “Beni se SENYÈ a, Bondye a Cham nan. Canaan va sèvitè li.
27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
Ke Bondye agrandi Japhet. Kite li viv nan tant Sem yo. Kite Canaan vin sèvitè li.”
28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
Noé te viv twa-san-senkant ane aprè delij la.
29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
Alò, tout jou a Noé yo te nèf-san-senkant ane, e li te mouri.
