Genesis 9
1 Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, “I want you to have many children who will live all over the earth.
Nitatan’Añahare t’i Nòake naho o ana-dahi’eo ami’ty hoe: Mitomboa naho mangetseketseha vaho liforo ty tane toy.
2 All the wild animals on the earth and all the birds, all the creatures that scurry across the ground, and all the fish, will be very afraid [DOU] of you. I have put them under your control.
Le amy ze kila biby ambone’ ty tane toy naho amy ze voron-tioke naho amy ze mpisitsitse an-tane atoy, vaho amy ze fiañe an-driak’ ao ty fihembañañe naho ty firevendreveñañe ama’ nahareo, fa natolotse am-pità’ areo.
3 Just as I previously said you could eat green plants for food, now I am saying you can eat everything that lives and moves.
Ho fikama’ areo ze hene raha veloñe; manahake ty nanolorako anahareo o ahetse maindoñindoñeo ty anolorako ze satan’ Añahare.
4 [It is blood that causes creatures to be alive], therefore you must not eat meat that still has blood in it after the animal is killed. [After you have drained the blood out, you may cook it and eat it].
Fe tsy ho kamae’ areo ze nofotse reketse ty havelo’e—i lio’ey.
5 I insist that murderers must be executed. Animals that kill people must also be executed. The reason that everyone who murders someone else must be executed is that
Toe ho paiaeko an-taña’ ze fonga biby naho am-pità’ondaty naho am-pitàn-drahalahi’ ondaty ty lio’areo, ty havelo’areo. Ho paiako ty fiai’indatiy.
6 I made people to be like myself [in many ways]. So someone who murders another human being must be executed by others, [because he killed someone who is like me].
Ze mampiori-dio ondaty, Le hampiorihe’ondaty ka ty lio’e. Fa ami’ty vintan’Añahare ty nitseneañe ondatio.
7 As for you, I want you to produce many children, in order that they and their descendants may live all over the earth.”
Aa le mahavokara vaho mangetseketseha, miraoraòa an-tane atoy vaho mihamaroa ama’e.
8 God also said to Noah and his sons,
Le hoe t’i Andrianañahare amy Nòake naho amo ana-dahi’e nindre ama’eo:
9 “Listen carefully. I am now making a solemn promise to you and with your descendants,
Ingo te mañori-pañina ama’areo naho amo tarira’areo hanonjohio iraho,
10 and with all the living creatures that are with you—including the birds, the livestock, and the wild animals—every living creature on the earth that came out of the boat with you.
naho amy ze kila raha veloñe mindre ama’areo, o voroñeo, o hareo, naho ze fonga bibi’ ty tane toy, ze niakatse i lakam-poloaiy, ze kila’ bibi’ ty tane toy.
11 This is the promise that I am making to you: I will never again destroy all living creatures by a flood, or destroy everything else on the earth by a flood.”
Horizako ama’areo ty fañinako te tsy hampaitoeñe an-drano fiempoempoañe ka ze kila nofotse, vaho tsy ho rotsahe’ ty fiempoempoan-drano ka ty tane toy.
12 Then God said to him, “This is the sign to guarantee that I will keep the promise that I am making to you and to all living creatures, a promise that I will keep forever:
Hoe t’i Andrianañahare, Zao ty vilo’ ty fañina ifañinàko ama’areo naho amo kila raha veloñe mindre ama’ areoo pak’amy ze hene tariratse añe:
13 [From time to time] I will put a rainbow in the sky. It will remind me of my promise that I have made to you and everything on the earth.
Ho reketeko amo rahoñeo ty àvako ho vilo’ ty fañinako ami’ty tane toy.
14 When I cause rain to fall from the clouds, and a rainbow appears in the sky,
Ie ampandrahoñeko ty ambone’ ty tane toy, le hiboak’ amo rahoñeo i avañey
15 it will remind me about the promise that I have made to you and all living creatures, my promise that there will never again be a flood that will destroy all living creatures.
le ho tiahiko i fañinako ama’ areo naho amo raha veloñe ama’ nofotse iabioy; vaho tsy ho empoempoe’ o ranoo ka ze hene nofotse handrotsake aze.
16 Whenever there is a rainbow in the sky, I will see it, and I will think about the promise that I have made to every living creature that is upon the earth, a promise that I will keep forever.”
Ie amo rahoñeo i avañey, le ho treako vaho ho tiahiko i fañina tsy ho modo añivon’ Añahare naho ze hene raha veloñe ama’ nofotse an-tane atoiy.
17 Then God said to Noah, “The rainbow will be the sign of the promise that I have made to all the creatures that live on the earth.”
Hoe t’i Andrianañahare amy Nòake, izay ty ho vilo’ i fañina norizeko añivo’ Ahy naho ze kila nofotse an-tane atoiy.
18 The sons of Noah who came out of the boat were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham later became the father of Canaan.
O ana’ i Nòake niakatse i lakam-poloaio, le i Seme naho i Kame vaho Ièfete. Rae’ i Kanàne t’i Kame.
19 All the people on the earth are descended from those three sons of Noah.
I telo rey ro ana-dahi’ i Nòake; le boak’ am’ iereo ty nanitsihañe ty tane toy.
20 Noah was a farmer. He planted grapevines.
Niorotse niava tane t’i Nòake vaho nambole valoboke.
21 [When they later produced grapes, he made wine from the grapes]. One day, when he drank too much of the wine, he became drunk, and he lay naked in his tent.
Ie nikama ty divai’e le nimamo vaho tsy aman-tsaroñe t’ie an-kiboho’e ao.
22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father lying naked in the tent. So he went outside and told his two older brothers what he had seen.
Nizoe’ i Kame, rae’ i Kanàne, ty fihalon-drae’e le vinola’e ty rahalahi’e roe alafe ao.
23 Then Shem and Japheth took a large cloth and placed it across their backs, and walked backwards into the tent. They covered their father’s naked body with the cloth. Their faces were turned away from their father, so they did not see him naked.
Aa le rinambe’ i Seme naho Ièfete ty lamba, le nasampe an-tsoro’ iareo roe le nidisa-voly nanaroñe ty fihalon-drae’e; nitolike ty lahara’iareo tsy nahatrea i fihaloa’ey.
24 When Noah woke up [and was sober again], he found out how wrongfully Ham, his youngest son, had behaved toward him.
Ie nivañoñe amy divai’ey t’i Nòake naho nahafohiñe i nanoa’ i ana-tsitso’ey,
25 He said, “I am cursing Ham’s youngest son, Canaan, and his descendants. They will be like slaves to their uncles.
le hoe re, Afàtse t’i Kanàne fa ho mpitorom-pitoroñe amo roahalahi’eo. Hoe ka re,
26 I will ask God to enlarge the territory that belongs to Japheth, and allow his descendants to live peacefully among the descendants of Shem [MTY].
Rengèñe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ i Seme, fa ho mpitoro’e t’i Kanàne.
27 And I desire that Canaan’s descendants will be like slaves of Japheth’s descendants.”
Hampientaren’Añahare t’Ièfete, ie himoneñe an-kiboho’ i Seme, vaho ho mpitoro’e t’i Kanàne.
28 Noah lived 350 more years after the flood.
Niveloñe telon-jato tsy limampolo taoñe tafara’ i fiempoempoañey t’i Nòake.
29 He died when he was 950 years old.
Nañeneke sivan-jato-tsi-limampolo taoñe ty hene andro’ i Nòake, vaho nihomake. Izay ty fanoñona’ o ana’ i Nòakeo
