< Genesis 9 >

1 God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth.
وَبَارَكَ ٱللهُ نُوحًا وَبَنِيهِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَثْمِرُوا وَٱكْثُرُوا وَٱمْلَأُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ.١
2 And the fear of you and the dread of you will be on every wild animal of the earth, and on every tame animal of the earth, and on every flying creature of the sky, and on everything that crawls on the ground, and on all the fish of the sea; into your power they are given.
وَلْتَكُنْ خَشْيَتُكُمْ وَرَهْبَتُكُمْ عَلَى كُلِّ حَيَوَانَاتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَكُلِّ طُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، مَعَ كُلِّ مَا يَدِبُّ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَكُلِّ أَسْمَاكِ ٱلْبَحْرِ. قَدْ دُفِعَتْ إِلَى أَيْدِيكُمْ.٢
3 Every moving thing that lives will be food for you. As I gave the green plants, I now give you everything.
كُلُّ دَابَّةٍ حَيَّةٍ تَكُونُ لَكُمْ طَعَامًا. كَٱلْعُشْبِ ٱلْأَخْضَرِ دَفَعْتُ إِلَيْكُمُ ٱلْجَمِيعَ.٣
4 But flesh with its life, its blood, you shall not eat.
غَيْرَ أَنَّ لَحْمًا بِحَيَاتِهِ، دَمِهِ، لَا تَأْكُلُوهُ.٤
5 And surely I will require a reckoning for your lifeblood; from every animal I will require it, and from humans. From every human being I will require it for the life of his fellow human being.
وَأَطْلُبُ أَنَا دَمَكُمْ لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ فَقَطْ. مِنْ يَدِ كُلِّ حَيَوَانٍ أَطْلُبُهُ. وَمِنْ يَدِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ أَطْلُبُ نَفْسَ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ، مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ أَخِيهِ.٥
6 Whoever takes a human life, by a human will his life be taken, for God made humankind in his own image.
سَافِكُ دَمِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ بِٱلْإِنْسَانِ يُسْفَكُ دَمُهُ. لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ عَمِلَ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ.٦
7 And as for you, be fruitful and multiply, and increase abundantly on the earth, and subdue it."
فَأَثْمِرُوا أَنْتُمْ وَٱكْثُرُوا وَتَوَالَدُوا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَتَكَاثَرُوا فِيهَا».٧
8 God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
وَكَلَّمَ ٱللهُ نُوحًا وَبَنِيهِ مَعهُ قَائِلًا:٨
9 "And as for me, look, I establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
«وَهَا أَنَا مُقِيمٌ مِيثَاقِي مَعَكُمْ وَمَعَ نَسْلِكُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِكُمْ،٩
10 and with every living creature that is with you: the flying creatures, and the tame animals, and every wild animal of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ship.
وَمَعَ كُلِّ ذَوَاتِ ٱلْأَنْفُسِ ٱلْحَيَّةِ ٱلَّتِي مَعَكُمْ: ٱلطُّيُورِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمِ وَكُلِّ وُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي مَعَكُمْ، مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلْخَارِجِينَ مِنَ ٱلْفُلْكِ حَتَّى كُلُّ حَيَوَانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.١٠
11 I will establish my covenant with you; and all flesh will never again be cut off by the waters of the flood, neither will there ever again be a flood to destroy the earth."
أُقِيمُ مِيثَاقِي مَعَكُمْ فَلَا يَنْقَرِضُ كُلُّ ذِي جَسَدٍ أَيْضًا بِمِيَاهِ ٱلطُّوفَانِ. وَلَا يَكُونُ أَيْضًا طُوفَانٌ لِيُخْرِبَ ٱلْأَرْضَ».١١
12 God said, "This is the sign of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
وَقَالَ ٱللهُ: «هَذِهِ عَلَامَةُ ٱلْمِيثَاقِ ٱلَّذِي أَنَا وَاضِعُهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ، وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ ذَوَاتِ ٱلْأَنْفُسِ ٱلْحَيَّةِ ٱلَّتِي مَعَكُمْ إِلَى أَجْيَالِ ٱلدَّهْرِ:١٢
13 I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
وَضَعْتُ قَوْسِي فِي ٱلسَّحَابِ فَتَكُونُ عَلَامَةَ مِيثَاقٍ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ.١٣
14 It will happen, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,
فَيَكُونُ مَتَى أَنْشُرْ سَحَابًا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَتَظْهَرِ ٱلْقَوْسُ فِي ٱلسَّحَابِ،١٤
15 and I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters will no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
أَنِّي أَذْكُرُ مِيثَاقِي ٱلَّذِي بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ نَفْسٍ حَيَّةٍ فِي كُلِّ جَسَدٍ. فَلَا تَكُونُ أَيْضًا ٱلْمِيَاهُ طُوفَانًا لِتُهْلِكَ كُلَّ ذِي جَسَدٍ.١٥
16 The rainbow will be in the cloud. I will look at it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between me and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth."
فَمَتَى كَانَتِ ٱلْقَوْسُ فِي ٱلسَّحَابِ، أُبْصِرُهَا لِأَذْكُرَ مِيثَاقًا أَبَدِيًّا بَيْنَ ٱللهِ وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ نَفْسٍ حَيَّةٍ فِي كُلِّ جَسَدٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ».١٦
17 God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth."
وَقَالَ ٱللهُ لِنُوحٍ: «هَذِهِ عَلَامَةُ ٱلْمِيثَاقِ ٱلَّذِي أَنَا أَقَمْتُهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ ذِي جَسَدٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ».١٧
18 The sons of Noah who came out of the ship were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham is the father of Canaan.
وَكَانَ بَنُو نُوحٍ ٱلَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا مِنَ ٱلْفُلْكِ سَامًا وَحَامًا وَيَافَثَ. وَحَامٌ هُوَ أَبُو كَنْعَانَ.١٨
19 These were the three sons of Noah, and from them the whole earth was populated.
هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ هُمْ بَنُو نُوحٍ. وَمِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ تَشَعَّبَتْ كُلُّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.١٩
20 Noah, a farmer, was the first to plant a vineyard.
وَٱبْتَدَأَ نُوحٌ يَكُونُ فَلَّاحًا وَغَرَسَ كَرْمًا.٢٠
21 He drank of the wine and got drunk. He was uncovered within his tent.
وَشَرِبَ مِنَ ٱلْخَمْرِ فَسَكِرَ وَتَعَرَّى دَاخِلَ خِبَائِهِ.٢١
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked and told his two brothers outside.
فَأَبْصَرَ حَامٌ أَبُو كَنْعَانَ عَوْرَةَ أَبِيهِ، وَأَخْبَرَ أَخَوَيْهِ خَارِجًا.٢٢
23 Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it on both their shoulders, went in backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned the other way, and they did not see their father's nakedness.
فَأَخَذَ سَامٌ وَيَافَثُ ٱلرِّدَاءَ وَوَضَعَاهُ عَلَى أَكْتَافِهِمَا وَمَشَيَا إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ، وَسَتَرَا عَوْرَةَ أَبِيهِمَا وَوَجْهَاهُمَا إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ. فَلَمْ يُبْصِرَا عَوْرَةَ أَبِيهِمَا.٢٣
24 Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him.
فَلَمَّا ٱسْتَيْقَظَ نُوحٌ مِنْ خَمْرِهِ، عَلِمَ مَا فَعَلَ بِهِ ٱبْنُهُ ٱلصَّغِيرُ،٢٤
25 He said, "Canaan is cursed. He will be servant of servants to his brothers."
فَقَالَ: «مَلْعُونٌ كَنْعَانُ! عَبْدَ ٱلْعَبِيدِ يَكُونُ لإِخْوَتِهِ».٢٥
26 He said, "Blessed be the God of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.
وَقَالَ: «مُبَارَكٌ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ سَامٍ. وَلْيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ عَبْدًا لَهُمْ.٢٦
27 May God enlarge Japheth. Let him dwell in the tents of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant."
لِيَفْتَحِ ٱللهُ لِيَافَثَ فَيَسْكُنَ فِي مَسَاكِنِ سَامٍ، وَلْيَكُنْ كَنْعَانُ عَبْدًا لَهُمْ».٢٧
28 Noah lived three hundred fifty years after the flood.
وَعَاشَ نُوحٌ بَعْدَ ٱلطُّوفَانِ ثَلَاثَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ سَنَةً.٢٨
29 All the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years, then he died.
فَكَانَتْ كُلُّ أَيَّامِ نُوحٍ تِسْعَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ سَنَةً، وَمَاتَ.٢٩
