Genesis 9
1 And God blesses Noah and his sons, and says to them, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth;
Ndipo Mulungu anadalitsa Nowa ndi ana ake aamuna nati kwa iwo, “Berekanani ndipo muchulukane ndi kudzaza dziko lapansi.
2 and your fear and your dread is on every beast of the earth, and on every bird of the heavens, on all that creeps on the ground, and on all fishes of the sea—into your hand they have been given.
Nyama zonse za dziko lapansi, ndi mbalame zonse za mlengalenga, ndi chamoyo chilichonse chokwawa, ndiponso nsomba zonse za ku nyanja; zidzakuopani ndipo ndazipereka kuti muzilamulire.
3 Every creeping thing that is alive, to you it is for food; as the green herb I have given to you the whole;
Tsopano chamoyo chilichonse chidzakhala chakudya chanu. Monga momwe ndinakupatsirani ndiwo zamasamba, tsopano ndikupatsaninso nyama iliyonse.
4 only flesh in its life—its blood—you do not eat.
“Koma musamadye nyama imene ikanali ndi magazi oyenda.
5 And only your blood for your lives do I require; from the hand of every living thing I require it, and from the hand of man, from the hand of every man’s brother I require the life of man;
Aliyense wopha munthu adzaphedwa, nyama iliyonse yopha munthu idzaphedwa, munthu aliyense wopha munthu mnzake, adzaphedwa.
6 whoever sheds man’s blood, by man is his blood shed: for in the image of God has He made man.
“Aliyense wopha munthu, adzaphedwanso ndi munthu; pakuti Mulungu analenga munthu mʼchifanizo chake.
7 And you, be fruitful and multiply, teem in the earth, and multiply in it.”
Inu muberekane ndi kuchulukana kuti mudzaze dziko lonse lapansi ndi kuligonjetsa.”
8 And God speaks to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
Mulungu anawuza Nowa ndi ana ake kuti,
9 “And I, behold, I am establishing My covenant with you, and with your seed after you,
“Tsopano Ine ndapangana ndi iwe ndi zidzukulu zako zamʼtsogolomo,
10 and with every living creature which [is] with you, among bird, among livestock, and among every beast of the earth with you, from all who are going out of the Ark—to every beast of the earth.
pamodzi ndi zamoyo zonse, mbalame, ziweto ndi nyama zonse za kuthengo, ndi zonse zimene zinatuluka mʼchombo pamodzi ndi iwe.
11 And I have established My covenant with you, and all flesh is not cut off anymore by waters of a flood, and there is not a flood to destroy the earth anymore.”
Pangano langa ndi ili: Ine ndilonjeza kuti sindidzawononganso zamoyo ndi madzi a chigumula. Chigumula sichidzawononganso dziko lapansi.”
12 And God says, “This is a token of the covenant which I am giving between Me and you, and every living creature that [is] with you, to continuous generations;
Ndipo Mulungu anati, “Ine ndikupereka chizindikiro ichi cha pangano langa la pakati pa Ine ndi iwe, ana ako, zamoyo zonse, pamodzi ndi mibado ya mʼtsogolo.
13 My bow I have given in the cloud, and it has been for a token of a covenant between Me and the earth;
Ndayika utawaleza wanga mʼmitambo, ndipo chidzakhala chizindikiro cha pangano langa ndi dziko lapansi.
14 and it has come to pass (in My sending a cloud over the earth) that the bow has been seen in the cloud,
Nthawi zonse pakakhala mitambo mu mlengalenga ndipo utawaleza uwoneka,
15 and I have remembered My covenant which is between Me and you, and every living creature among all flesh, and the waters no longer become a flood to destroy all flesh;
ndizikumbukira pangano langa pakati pa Ine ndi inu ndi zolengedwa zonse. Madzi sadzakhalanso chigumula chowononga dziko lapansi.
16 and the bow has been in the cloud, and I have seen it—to remember the perpetual covenant between God and every living creature among all flesh which [is] on the earth.”
Utawaleza ukamadzaoneka mʼmitambo, ndidzawuona ndi kukumbukira pangano losatha pakati pa Mulungu ndi zamoyo zonse pa dziko lapansi.”
17 And God says to Noah, “This [is] a token of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that [is] on the earth.”
Choncho Mulungu anati kwa Nowa, “Ichi ndiye chizindikiro cha pangano limene ndalichita pakati pa Ine ndi zamoyo zonse pa dziko lapansi.”
18 And the sons of Noah who are going out of the Ark are Shem, and Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is father of Canaan.
Ana aamuna a Nowa amene anatuluka mʼchombo muja anali Semu, Hamu ndi Yafeti. Hamu anali abambo ake a Kanaani.
19 These three [are] sons of Noah, and from these has all the earth been overspread.
Ana aamuna a Nowa amenewa ndiwo anali makolo a anthu onse pa dziko lapansi.
20 And Noah remains a man of the ground, and plants a vineyard,
Nowa anali munthu woyamba kulima munda wamphesa.
21 and drinks of the wine, and is drunken, and uncovers himself in the midst of the tent.
Tsiku lina pamene Nowa anamwako vinyo wa zipatso za mʼmundawo analedzera ndipo anavula zovala zake zonse ndi kugona mu tenti yake ali maliseche.
22 And Ham, father of Canaan, sees the nakedness of his father, and declares to his two brothers outside.
Hamu, abambo ake a Kanaani ataona kuti abambo ake ali maliseche anakawuza abale ake awiri aja omwe anali panja.
23 And Shem takes—Japheth also—the garment, and they place on the shoulder of them both, and go backward, and cover the nakedness of their father; and their faces [are] backward, and their father’s nakedness they have not seen.
Koma Semu ndi Yafeti anatenga chofunda nachiyika pa mapewa awo; ndipo anayenda chamʼmbuyo naphimba umaliseche wa abambo awo. Anafulatira kuti asaone umaliseche wa abambo awo.
24 And Noah awakens from his wine, and knows that which his young son has done to him,
Nowa atadzuka, kuledzera kutatha, ndikudziwa zimene mwana wake wamngʼono wamwamuna uja anamuchitira,
25 and says: “Cursed [is] Canaan, Servant of servants he is to his brothers.”
anati, “Atembereredwe Kanaani! Adzakhala kapolo wa pansi kwenikweni kwa abale ake.”
26 And he says: “Blessed of my God YHWH [is] Shem, And Canaan is servant to him.
Anatinso, “Atamandike Yehova, Mulungu wa Semu! Kanaani akhale kapolo wa Semu.
27 God gives beauty to Japheth, And he dwells in tents of Shem, And Canaan is servant to him.”
Mulungu akulitse dziko la Yafeti; Yafeti alandire madalitso pamodzi ndi Semu, ndipo Kanaani akhale kapolo wawo.”
28 And Noah lives after the flood three hundred and fifty years;
Chitatha chigumula, Nowa anakhala ndi moyo zaka 350.
29 and all the days of Noah are nine hundred and fifty years, and he dies.
Anamwalira ali ndi zaka 950.
