< Genesis 9 >

1 God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the earth.
Ọlọ́run sì súre fún Noa àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ wí pé, “Ẹ máa bí sí i, kí ẹ sì pọ̀ ní iye, kí ẹ sì kún ayé.
2 The fear of you and the dread of you will be on every animal of the earth, and on every bird of the sky. Everything that moves along the ground, and all the fish of the sea, are delivered into your hand.
Ẹ̀rù yín yóò mú ojo wà lára gbogbo ẹranko àti gbogbo ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run, àti gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀dá tí ń rìn nílẹ̀; àti gbogbo ẹja òkun; a fi wọ́n lé e yín lọ́wọ́.
3 Every moving thing that lives will be food for you. As I gave you the green herb, I have given everything to you.
Gbogbo ohun tó wà láààyè tí ó sì ń rìn, ni yóò jẹ́ oúnjẹ fún un yín, bí mo ṣe fi ewéko fún un yín náà ni mo fi ohun gbogbo fún un yín.
4 But flesh with its life, that is, its blood, you shall not eat.
“Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ ẹran tòun-tẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀.
5 I will surely require accounting for your life’s blood. At the hand of every animal I will require it. At the hand of man, even at the hand of every man’s brother, I will require the life of man.
Nítòótọ́ ẹ̀jẹ̀ yín, àní ẹ̀mí yín, ni èmi yóò sì béèrè; lọ́wọ́ gbogbo ẹranko ni èmí yóò béèrè rẹ̀, àti lọ́wọ́ ènìyàn, lọ́wọ́ arákùnrin olúkúlùkù ènìyàn ni èmi yóò béèrè ẹ̀mí ènìyàn.
6 Whoever sheds man’s blood, his blood will be shed by man, for God made man in his own image.
“Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ ènìyàn sílẹ̀, láti ọwọ́ ènìyàn ni a ó gbà ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀. Nítorí ní àwòrán Ọlọ́run ni Ọlọ́run dá ènìyàn.
7 Be fruitful and multiply. Increase abundantly in the earth, and multiply in it.”
Ṣùgbọ́n ní tiyín, ẹ máa bí sí i, kí ẹ sì máa pọ̀ sí i, ẹ máa gbá yìn lórí ilẹ̀, kí ẹ sì pọ̀ sí i lórí rẹ̀.”
8 God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Noa àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé,
9 “As for me, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
“Mo dá májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú yín àti pẹ̀lú àwọn ìran yín tí ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn.
10 and with every living creature that is with you: the birds, the livestock, and every animal of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ship, even every animal of the earth.
Àti pẹ̀lú gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè tí ó wà pẹ̀lú yín, ìbá à ṣe ẹyẹ, ẹja, ẹran ọ̀sìn, ẹranko igbó, gbogbo ohun tí ó jáde kúrò nínú ọkọ̀ pẹ̀lú yín, àní gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè ní ayé.
11 I will establish my covenant with you: All flesh will not be cut off any more by the waters of the flood. There will never again be a flood to destroy the earth.”
Mo dá májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú yín láéláé, Èmi kì yóò fi ìkún omi pa ayé run kúrò mọ láéláé, a kì yóò fi omi pa ayé run.”
12 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:
Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Èyí ni àmì májẹ̀mú tí mo ń dá yìí láàrín èmi àti ẹ̀yin àti ẹ̀dá alààyè tí ó wà pẹ̀lú yín, májẹ̀mú àtìrandíran tó ń bọ̀:
13 I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be a sign of a covenant between me and the earth.
Mo ti fi òṣùmàrè sí àwọsánmọ̀, yóò sì jẹ́ àmì májẹ̀mú láàrín èmi àti ayé.
14 When I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,
Nígbàkígbà tí mo bá mú kí òjò ṣú, tí òṣùmàrè bá farahàn ní àwọsánmọ̀.
15 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.
Èmi yóò rántí májẹ̀mú mi, tí ó wà láàrín èmi àti ẹ̀yin àti gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè, kì yóò sì tún sí ìkún omi mọ́ láti pa gbogbo ẹ̀dá run.
16 The rainbow will be in the cloud. I will look at it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”
Nígbàkígbà tí òṣùmàrè bá yọ ní àwọsánmọ̀, èmi yóò rí i, èmi yóò sì rántí májẹ̀mú ayérayé tí ń bẹ láàrín Ọlọ́run àti gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè tí ń bẹ ní ayé.”
17 God said to Noah, “This is the token of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.”
Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Noa pé, “Èyí ni àmì májẹ̀mú tí mo ti fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ láàrín èmi àti gbogbo alààyè ní ayé.”
18 The sons of Noah who went out from the ship were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham is the father of Canaan.
Àwọn ọmọ Noa tí ó jáde nínú ọkọ̀ ni Ṣemu, Hamu àti Jafeti. (Hamu ni baba Kenaani.)
19 These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.
Láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ Noa mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta yìí ni gbogbo ènìyàn ti tàn ká gbogbo ilẹ̀ ayé.
20 Noah began to be a farmer, and planted a vineyard.
Noa bẹ̀rẹ̀ iṣẹ́ àgbẹ̀, ó sì gbin ọgbà àjàrà.
21 He drank of the wine and got drunk. He was uncovered within his tent.
Ó mu àmupara nínú ọtí wáìnì àjàrà rẹ̀, ó sì tú ara rẹ̀ sí ìhòhò, ó sì sùn nínú àgọ́ rẹ̀.
22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
Hamu tí í ṣe baba Kenaani sì rí baba rẹ̀ ní ìhòhò bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì lọ sọ fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ méjèèjì ní ìta.
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 backwards, and they didn’t see their father’s nakedness.
Ṣùgbọ́n Ṣemu àti Jafeti mú aṣọ lé èjìká wọn, wọ́n sì fi ẹ̀yìn rìn, wọ́n sì bo ìhòhò baba wọn. Wọ́n kọjú sẹ́yìn kí wọn kí ó má ba à rí ìhòhò baba wọn.
24 Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him.
Nígbà tí Noa kúrò ní ojú ọtí, tí ó sì mọ ohun tí ọmọ rẹ̀ kékeré ṣe sí i.
25 He said, “Canaan is cursed. He will be a servant of servants to his brothers.”
Ó wí pé, “Ègún ni fún Kenaani. Ìránṣẹ́ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ni yóò máa ṣe fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀.”
26 He said, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.
Ó sì tún wí pé, “Olùbùkún ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Ṣemu Kenaani yóò máa ṣe ẹrú fún Ṣemu.
27 May God enlarge Japheth. Let him dwell in the tents of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.”
Ọlọ́run yóò mú Jafeti gbilẹ̀, Jafeti yóò máa gbé ní àgọ́ Ṣemu Kenaani yóò sì jẹ́ ẹrú fún un.”
28 Noah lived three hundred fifty years after the flood.
Noa wà láààyè fún irinwó ọdún dín àádọ́ta lẹ́yìn ìkún omi.
29 All the days of Noah were nine hundred fifty years, and then he died.
Àpapọ̀ ọjọ́ ayé Noa jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún ọdún dín làádọ́ta, ó sì kú.
