< Genesis 9 >

1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
Benedixitque Deus Noë et filiis ejus. Et dixit ad eos: Crescite, et multiplicamini, et replete terram.
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.
Et terror vester ac tremor sit super cuncta animalia terræ, et super omnes volucres cæli, cum universis quæ moventur super terram: omnes pisces maris manui vestræ traditi sunt.
3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
Et omne, quod movetur et vivit, erit vobis in cibum: quasi olera virentia tradidi vobis omnia.
4 But flesh with the life thereof, [which is] the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
Excepto, quod carnem cum sanguine non comedetis.
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.
Sanguinem enim animarum vestrarum requiram de manu cunctarum bestiarum: et de manu hominis, de manu viri, et fratris ejus requiram animam hominis.
6 Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
Quicumque effuderit humanum sanguinem, fundetur sanguis illius: ad imaginem quippe Dei factus est homo.
7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.
Vos autem crescite et multiplicamini, et ingredimini super terram, et implete eam.
8 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
Hæc quoque dixit Deus ad Noë, et ad filios ejus cum eo:
9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
Ecce ego statuam pactum meum vobiscum, et cum semine vestro post vos:
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.
et ad omnem animam viventem, quæ est vobiscum, tam in volucribus quam in jumentis et pecudibus terræ cunctis, quæ egressa sunt de arca, et universis bestiis terræ.
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.
Statuam pactum meum vobiscum, et nequaquam ultra interficietur omnis caro aquis diluvii, neque erit deinceps diluvium dissipans terram.
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:
Dixitque Deus: Hoc signum fœderis quod do inter me et vos, et ad omnem animam viventem, quæ est vobiscum in generationes sempiternas:
13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
arcum meum ponam in nubibus, et erit signum fœderis inter me et inter terram.
14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
Cumque obduxero nubibus cælum, apparebit arcus meus in nubibus:
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.
et recordabor fœderis mei vobiscum, et cum omni anima vivente quæ carnem vegetat: et non erunt ultra aquæ diluvii ad delendum universam carnem.
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.
Eritque arcus in nubibus, et videbo illum, et recordabor fœderis sempiterni quod pactum est inter Deum et omnem animam viventem universæ carnis quæ est super terram.
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.
Dixitque Deus ad Noë: Hoc erit signum fœderis, quod constitui inter me et omnem carnem super terram.
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.
Erant ergo filii Noë, qui egressi sunt de arca, Sem, Cham et Japheth: porro Cham ipse est pater Chanaan.
19 These [are] the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.
Tres isti filii sunt Noë: et ab his disseminatum est omne genus hominum super universam terram.
20 And Noah began [to be] an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
Cœpitque Noë vir agricola exercere terram, et plantavit vineam.
21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
Bibensque vinum inebriatus est, et nudatus in tabernaculo suo.
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
Quod cum vidisset Cham, pater Chanaan, verenda scilicet patris sui esse nudata, nuntiavit duobus fratribus suis foras.
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.
At vero Sem et Japheth pallium imposuerunt humeris suis, et incedentes retrorsum, operuerunt verenda patris sui: faciesque eorum aversæ erant, et patris virilia non viderunt.
24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
Evigilans autem Noë ex vino, cum didicisset quæ fecerat ei filius suus minor,
25 And he said, Cursed [be] Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
ait: Maledictus Chanaan, servus servorum erit fratribus suis.
26 And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
Dixitque: Benedictus Dominus Deus Sem, sit Chanaan servus ejus.
27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
Dilatet Deus Japheth, et habitet in tabernaculis Sem, sitque Chanaan servus ejus.
28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
Vixit autem Noë post diluvium trecentis quinquaginta annis.
29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
Et impleti sunt omnes dies ejus nongentorum quinquaginta annorum: et mortuus est.
