Jenèz 9
1 Konsa, Bondye te beni Noé avèk fis li yo. Li te di yo: “Se pou nou vin fekon, miltipliye, e ranpli latè.
And God blessed Noe and his sons, and said to them, Increase and multiply, and fill the earth and have dominion over it.
2 Lakrent nou, ak laperèz nou va vini sou chak bèt latè, ak chak zwazo syèl la. Tout bagay ki kouri atè, ak tout pwason lanmè, tout livre nan men nou.
And the dread and the fear of you shall be upon all the wild beasts of the earth, on all the birds of the sky, and on all things moving upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea, I have placed them under your power.
3 Chak bagay ki fè mouvman e ki vivan va sèvi kòm manje pou nou. Mwen bannou tout, jan Mwen te bay plant vèt la.
And every reptile which is living shall be to you for meat, I have given all things to you as the green herbs.
4 “Sèlman, nou pa pou manje chè avèk lavi li, sa vle di san li.
But flesh with blood of life ye shall not eat.
5 Anverite, Mwen va egzije san lavi a paske se pa m. Menm soti nan chak bèt Mwen va egzije li. Epi sou chak òm, sou frè a chak òm, Mwen va egzije lavi a yon moun.
For your blood of your lives will I require at the hand of all wild beasts, and I will require the life of man at the hand of [his] brother man.
6 “Nenpòt moun ki vèse san lòm, pa lòm san pa l va vèse, paske nan imaj a Bondye, Li te fè lòm.
He that sheds man's blood, instead of that blood shall his own be shed, for in the image of God I made man.
7 Epi pou nou, se pou nou vin fekon, e miltipliye. Peple tè a anpil, e miltipliye ladann.”
But do ye increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and have dominion over it.
8 Alò, Bondye te pale avèk Noé ak fis li yo avè l. Li te di:
And God spoke to Noe, and to his sons with him, saying,
9 “Gade byen, Mwen menm, Mwen vin etabli akò Mwen avèk nou, e avèk desandan aprè nou yo,
And behold I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you,
10 epi avèk chak kreyati vivan ki avè w: zwazo, bèt kay yo, ak chak bèt ki sou latè avèk nou, tout sa ki sòti nan lach la, menm chak bèt sou tè a.
and with every living creature with you, of birds and of beasts, and with all the wild beasts of the earth, as many as are with you, of all that come out of the ark.
11 “Mwen etabli akò Mwen avèk nou: Tout chè p ap janm koupe ankò pa dlo delij, ni p ap gen delij ankò pou detwi tè a.”
And I will establish my covenant with you and all flesh shall not any more die by the water of the flood, and there shall no more be a flood of water to destroy all the earth.
12 Bondye te di: “Sa se sign akò ke m ap fè antre Mwen avèk nou, e avèk chak kreyati vivan ki la avèk nou, jis rive pou tout jenerasyon k ap vini yo.
And the Lord God said to Noe, This [is] the sign of the covenant which I set between me and you, and between every living creature which is with you for perpetual generations.
13 Mwen mete lakansyèl Mwen nan nwaj la, epi l ap sèvi kòm yon sign pou akò antre Mwen menm avèk latè a.
I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of covenant between me and the earth.
14 Li va rive ke lè m mennen yon nwaj sou latè, ke lakansyèl la ap vizib nan nwaj la,
And it shall be when I gather clouds upon the earth, that my bow shall be seen in the cloud.
15 epi Mwen va sonje akò ki antre Mwen menm avèk nou an, avèk chak kreyati vivan de tout chè. Epi janmen ankò dlo p ap vin yon delij pou detwi tout chè.
And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you, and between every living soul in all flesh, and there shall no longer be water for a deluge, so as to blot out all flesh.
16 “Lè lakansyèl la nan nwaj la, Mwen va gade sou li, pou m sonje akò ki jis pou tout tan antre Bondye ak tout kreyati vivan pou tout chè ki sou latè yo.”
And my bow shall be in the cloud, and I will look to remember the everlasting covenant between me and the earth, and between [every] living soul in all flesh, which is upon the earth.
17 Epi Bondye te di a Noé: “Sa se sign akò ke Mwen te etabli antre Mwen ak tout chè ki rete sou tè a.”
And God said to Noe, This [is] the sign of the covenant, which I have made between me and all flesh, which is upon the earth.
18 Alò, fis Noé yo ki te soti nan lach la se te Sem, Cham, ak Japhet. Epi Cham te papa Canaan.
Now the sons of Noe which came out of the ark, were Sem, Cham, Japheth. And Cham was father of Chanaan.
19 Twa sila yo se te fis Noé yo, e nan twa sila yo tout tè a te vin peple.
These three are the sons of Noe, of these were men scattered over all the earth.
20 Alò, Noé te kòmanse kiltive tè a. Li te plante yon chan rezen.
And Noe began to be a husbandman, and he planted a vineyard.
21 Li te bwè diven, e li te vin sou. Konsa li te dekouvri kò li anndan tant li an.
And he drank of the wine, and was drunk, and was naked in his house.
22 Cham, papa Canaan nan, te wè papa li toutouni, e li te pale sa a frè l yo deyò a.
And Cham the father of Chanaan saw the nakedness of his father, and he went out and told his two brothers without.
23 Men Sem avèk Japhet te pran yon abiman, yo te mete li sou chak zepòl li, e yo te mache an aryè pou kouvri nidite papa yo. Figi yo te vire akote pou yo pa wè nidite li.
And Sem and Japheth having taken a garment, put it on both their backs and went backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their face [was] backward, and they saw not the nakedness of their father.
24 Lè Noé te leve nan dòmi aprè diven an, li te konnen sa ke pi jenn fis li a te fè l la.
And Noe recovered from the wine, and knew all that his younger son had done to him.
25 Konsa li te di: “Canaan se modi. Se sèvitè l ap ye anvè frè li yo.”
And he said, Cursed be the servant Chanaan, a slave shall he be to his brethren.
26 Li te di osi: “Beni se SENYÈ a, Bondye a Cham nan. Canaan va sèvitè li.
And he said, Blessed [be] the Lord God of Sem, and Chanaan shall be his bond-servant.
27 Ke Bondye agrandi Japhet. Kite li viv nan tant Sem yo. Kite Canaan vin sèvitè li.”
May God make room for Japheth, and let him dwell in the habitations of Sem, and let Chanaan be his servant.
28 Noé te viv twa-san-senkant ane aprè delij la.
And Noe lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
29 Alò, tout jou a Noé yo te nèf-san-senkant ane, e li te mouri.
And all the days of Noe were nine hundred and fifty years, and he died.
