בראשית 9
| וַיְבָרֶךְ אֱלֹהִים אֶת־נֹחַ וְאֶת־בָּנָיו וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם פְּרוּ וּרְבוּ וּמִלְאוּ אֶת־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 1 |
And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them: 'Be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth.
| וּמוֹרַאֲכֶם וְחִתְּכֶם יִֽהְיֶה עַל כׇּל־חַיַּת הָאָרֶץ וְעַל כׇּל־עוֹף הַשָּׁמָיִם בְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר תִּרְמֹשׂ הָֽאֲדָמָה וּֽבְכׇל־דְּגֵי הַיָּם בְּיֶדְכֶם נִתָּֽנוּ׃ | 2 |
And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, and upon all wherewith the ground teemeth, and upon all the fishes of the sea: into your hand are they delivered.
| כׇּל־רֶמֶשׂ אֲשֶׁר הוּא־חַי לָכֶם יִהְיֶה לְאׇכְלָה כְּיֶרֶק עֵשֶׂב נָתַתִּי לָכֶם אֶת־כֹּֽל׃ | 3 |
Every moving thing that liveth shall be for food for you; as the green herb have I given you all.
| אַךְ־בָּשָׂר בְּנַפְשׁוֹ דָמוֹ לֹא תֹאכֵֽלוּ׃ | 4 |
Only flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
| וְאַךְ אֶת־דִּמְכֶם לְנַפְשֹֽׁתֵיכֶם אֶדְרֹשׁ מִיַּד כׇּל־חַיָּה אֶדְרְשֶׁנּוּ וּמִיַּד הָֽאָדָם מִיַּד אִישׁ אָחִיו אֶדְרֹשׁ אֶת־נֶפֶשׁ הָֽאָדָֽם׃ | 5 |
And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it; and at the hand of man, even at the hand of every man's brother, will I require the life of man.
| שֹׁפֵךְ דַּם הָֽאָדָם בָּֽאָדָם דָּמוֹ יִשָּׁפֵךְ כִּי בְּצֶלֶם אֱלֹהִים עָשָׂה אֶת־הָאָדָֽם׃ | 6 |
Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God made He man.
| וְאַתֶּם פְּרוּ וּרְבוּ שִׁרְצוּ בָאָרֶץ וּרְבוּ־בָֽהּ׃ | 7 |
And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; swarm in the earth, and multiply therein.'
| וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים אֶל־נֹחַ וְאֶל־בָּנָיו אִתּוֹ לֵאמֹֽר׃ | 8 |
And God spoke unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying:
| וַאֲנִי הִנְנִי מֵקִים אֶת־בְּרִיתִי אִתְּכֶם וְאֶֽת־זַרְעֲכֶם אַֽחֲרֵיכֶֽם׃ | 9 |
'As for Me, behold, I establish My covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
| וְאֵת כׇּל־נֶפֶשׁ הַֽחַיָּה אֲשֶׁר אִתְּכֶם בָּעוֹף בַּבְּהֵמָה וּֽבְכׇל־חַיַּת הָאָרֶץ אִתְּכֶם מִכֹּל יֹצְאֵי הַתֵּבָה לְכֹל חַיַּת הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 10 |
and with every living creature that is with you, the fowl, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you; of all that go out of the ark, even every beast of the earth.
| וַהֲקִמֹתִי אֶת־בְּרִיתִי אִתְּכֶם וְלֹֽא־יִכָּרֵת כׇּל־בָּשָׂר עוֹד מִמֵּי הַמַּבּוּל וְלֹֽא־יִהְיֶה עוֹד מַבּוּל לְשַׁחֵת הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 11 |
And I will establish My covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of the flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.'
| וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים זֹאת אֽוֹת־הַבְּרִית אֲשֶׁר־אֲנִי נֹתֵן בֵּינִי וּבֵינֵיכֶם וּבֵין כׇּל־נֶפֶשׁ חַיָּה אֲשֶׁר אִתְּכֶם לְדֹרֹת עוֹלָֽם׃ | 12 |
And 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:
| אֶת־קַשְׁתִּי נָתַתִּי בֶּֽעָנָן וְהָֽיְתָה לְאוֹת בְּרִית בֵּינִי וּבֵין הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 13 |
I have set My bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between Me and the earth.
| וְהָיָה בְּעַֽנְנִי עָנָן עַל־הָאָרֶץ וְנִרְאֲתָה הַקֶּשֶׁת בֶּעָנָֽן׃ | 14 |
And it shall come to pass, when I bring clouds over the earth, and the bow is seen in the cloud,
| וְזָכַרְתִּי אֶת־בְּרִיתִי אֲשֶׁר בֵּינִי וּבֵינֵיכֶם וּבֵין כׇּל־נֶפֶשׁ חַיָּה בְּכׇל־בָּשָׂר וְלֹֽא־יִֽהְיֶה עוֹד הַמַּיִם לְמַבּוּל לְשַׁחֵת כׇּל־בָּשָֽׂר׃ | 15 |
that I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
| וְהָיְתָה הַקֶּשֶׁת בֶּֽעָנָן וּרְאִיתִיהָ לִזְכֹּר בְּרִית עוֹלָם בֵּין אֱלֹהִים וּבֵין כׇּל־נֶפֶשׁ חַיָּה בְּכׇל־בָּשָׂר אֲשֶׁר עַל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 16 |
And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.'
| וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים אֶל־נֹחַ זֹאת אֽוֹת־הַבְּרִית אֲשֶׁר הֲקִמֹתִי בֵּינִי וּבֵין כׇּל־בָּשָׂר אֲשֶׁר עַל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 17 |
And God said unto Noah: 'This is the token of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is upon the earth.'
| וַיִּֽהְיוּ בְנֵי־נֹחַ הַיֹּֽצְאִים מִן־הַתֵּבָה שֵׁם וְחָם וָיָפֶת וְחָם הוּא אֲבִי כְנָֽעַן׃ | 18 |
And the sons of Noah, that went forth from the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is the father of Canaan.
| שְׁלֹשָׁה אֵלֶּה בְּנֵי־נֹחַ וּמֵאֵלֶּה נָֽפְצָה כׇל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 19 |
These three were the sons of Noah, and of these was the whole earth overspread.
| וַיָּחֶל נֹחַ אִישׁ הָֽאֲדָמָה וַיִּטַּע כָּֽרֶם׃ | 20 |
And Noah the husbandman began, and planted a vineyard.
| וַיֵּשְׁתְּ מִן־הַיַּיִן וַיִּשְׁכָּר וַיִּתְגַּל בְּתוֹךְ אׇהֳלֹֽה׃ | 21 |
And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
| וַיַּרְא חָם אֲבִי כְנַעַן אֵת עֶרְוַת אָבִיו וַיַּגֵּד לִשְׁנֵֽי־אֶחָיו בַּחֽוּץ׃ | 22 |
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
| וַיִּקַּח שֵׁם וָיֶפֶת אֶת־הַשִּׂמְלָה וַיָּשִׂימוּ עַל־שְׁכֶם שְׁנֵיהֶם וַיֵּֽלְכוּ אֲחֹרַנִּית וַיְכַסּוּ אֵת עֶרְוַת אֲבִיהֶם וּפְנֵיהֶם אֲחֹרַנִּית וְעֶרְוַת אֲבִיהֶם לֹא רָאֽוּ׃ | 23 |
And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.
| וַיִּיקֶץ נֹחַ מִיֵּינוֹ וַיֵּדַע אֵת אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂה לוֹ בְּנוֹ הַקָּטָֽן׃ | 24 |
And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done unto him.
| וַיֹּאמֶר אָרוּר כְּנָעַן עֶבֶד עֲבָדִים יִֽהְיֶה לְאֶחָֽיו׃ | 25 |
And he said: Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
| וַיֹּאמֶר בָּרוּךְ יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֵי שֵׁם וִיהִי כְנַעַן עֶבֶד לָֽמוֹ׃ | 26 |
And he said: Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem; and let Canaan be their servant.
| יַפְתְּ אֱלֹהִים לְיֶפֶת וְיִשְׁכֹּן בְּאׇֽהֳלֵי־שֵׁם וִיהִי כְנַעַן עֶבֶד לָֽמוֹ׃ | 27 |
God enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and let Canaan be their servant.
| וַֽיְחִי־נֹחַ אַחַר הַמַּבּוּל שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת שָׁנָה וַֽחֲמִשִּׁים שָׁנָֽה׃ | 28 |
And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
| וַיִּֽהְיוּ כׇּל־יְמֵי־נֹחַ תְּשַׁע מֵאוֹת שָׁנָה וַחֲמִשִּׁים שָׁנָה וַיָּמֹֽת׃ | 29 |
And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.
