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.
ʼElohim bendijo a Noé y a sus hijos, y les dijo: Sean fecundos y multiplíquense y llenen la tierra.
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.
El temor y pavor de ustedes sea sobre todos los animales de la tierra, sobre todas las aves del cielo, sobre todo lo que se mueve en la tierra y sobre todos los peces del mar. En sus manos son entregados.
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.
Todo lo que se mueve y vive les servirá de alimento, y también la hierba verde. Se lo di todo.
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].
Solo no comerán carne con su vida que es su sangre,
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
pues ciertamente demandaré la sangre de ustedes. La demandaré de mano de todo ser vivo. De mano del hombre y de cualquier hermano suyo demandaré la vida del hombre.
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].
El que derrame sangre de hombre, su sangre será derramada por los hombres, porque a imagen de ʼElohim hizo ʼEL al hombre.
7 As for you, I want you to produce many children, in order that they and their descendants may live all over the earth.”
Y ustedes, sean fructíferos y multiplíquense. Reprodúzcanse en la tierra y multiplíquense en ella.
8 God also said to Noah and his sons,
ʼElohim habló a Noé y a sus hijos que estaban con él:
9 “Listen carefully. I am now making a solemn promise to you and with your descendants,
Miren, Yo establezco mi Pacto con ustedes, y después de ustedes, con sus descendientes,
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.
y con todo ser vivo que está con ustedes: aves, ganado y todos los animales terrestres que están con ustedes, todos los que salieron del arca, todos los animales de la tierra.
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.”
Estableceré, pues, mi Pacto con ustedes: Ya no será aniquilada alguna carne por las aguas del diluvio. Ya no habrá diluvio para destruir la tierra.
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:
Y ʼElohim dijo: Les doy esta señal del Pacto entre Yo y ustedes y todo ser viviente que está con ustedes, por generaciones perpetuas:
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.
Pondré mi arco en las nubes y será la señal del Pacto entre Yo y la tierra.
14 When I cause rain to fall from the clouds, and a rainbow appears in the sky,
Pues sucederá que cuando Yo cubra la tierra con nubes, entonces aparecerá el arco en las nubes,
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.
y me acordaré de mi Pacto entre Yo y ustedes y todo ser viviente de toda carne. No habrá más aguas de diluvio para destruir a todo ser vivo.
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.”
Cuando el arco aparezca en las nubes, lo miraré para recordar el Pacto eterno entre ʼElohim y todo ser viviente de toda carne que está sobre la tierra.
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.”
Luego ʼElohim dijo a Noé: Esta es la señal del Pacto que establezco entre Yo y toda carne que hay sobre la tierra.
18 The sons of Noah who came out of the boat were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham later became the father of Canaan.
Los hijos de Noé que salieron del arca fueron Sem, Cam y Jafet (y Cam es el padre de Canaán).
19 All the people on the earth are descended from those three sons of Noah.
Estos tres fueron los hijos de Noé, y de éstos fue poblada toda la tierra.
20 Noah was a farmer. He planted grapevines.
Noé comenzó a labrar la tierra y plantó una viña.
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.
Bebió vino, se embriagó y se desnudó dentro de su tienda.
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.
Cam, padre de Canaán, vio la desnudez de su padre y lo declaró afuera a sus dos hermanos.
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.
Entonces Sem y Jafet tomaron la ropa y se la pusieron ambos sobre sus hombros. Caminaron hacia atrás y cubrieron la desnudez de su padre. Sus rostros estaban vueltos hacia atrás y no vieron la desnudez de su padre.
24 When Noah woke up [and was sober again], he found out how wrongfully Ham, his youngest son, had behaved toward him.
Al despertar de su embriaguez, Noé supo lo que le hizo su hijo menor
25 He said, “I am cursing Ham’s youngest son, Canaan, and his descendants. They will be like slaves to their uncles.
y dijo: Maldito sea Canaán. Será esclavo de los esclavos de sus hermanos.
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].
Luego dijo: Bendito sea Yavé, ʼElohim de Sem, Y sea Canaán su esclavo.
27 And I desire that Canaan’s descendants will be like slaves of Japheth’s descendants.”
Ensanche ʼElohim a Jafet, Y viva en las tiendas de Sem Y sea Canaán su esclavo.
28 Noah lived 350 more years after the flood.
Noé vivió 350 años después del diluvio.
29 He died when he was 950 years old.
Los días de Noé fueron 950 años, y murió.
