Olubereberye 9
1 Awo Katonda n’awa Nuuwa ne batabani be omukisa n’agamba nti, “Muzaale mwale mweyongerenga nnyo mujjuze ensi.
And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
2 Ensolo zonna ez’omu nsiko, n’ebinyonyi eby’omu bbanga, na buli ekitambula ku nsi, buli ekiri mu nnyanja, byonna binaakutyanga, mbikuwadde mu mikono gyo.
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, upon all that moveth [on] the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
3 Buli kintu ekiramu, ekitambula onookiryanga. Nga bwe nakuwa ebimera, kaakano nkuwa buli kintu.
Every moving thing that liveth shall be food for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things:
4 “Naye toolyenga nnyama ng’ekyalimu omusaayi gwayo.
But flesh with the life of it, [which is] its blood, shall ye not eat.
5 Era ndivunaana ayiwa omusaayi gwammwe ne nvunaana n’omuntu olw’omusaayi gw’ensolo ne muvunaana n’olw’omusaayi gwa muntu munne.
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, at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.
6 “Buli anaayiwanga omusaayi gw’omuntu, n’ogugwe gunaayiibwanga, kubanga mu kifaananyi kya Katonda, Katonda mwe yakolera omuntu.
Whoever sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
7 Naye ggwe onoozaalanga ne weeyongera obungi. Oneeyongeranga ku nsi.”
And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply, bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.
8 Awo Katonda n’agamba Nuuwa ne batabani bwe baali
And God spoke to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
9 nti, “Laba nkola endagaano yange nammwe ne bonna abaliva mu mmwe oluvannyuma lwammwe,
And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
10 era na buli kitonde ekiramu ekiri naawe: ebinyonyi, n’ensolo ez’awaka n’ez’omu nsiko zonna, ne byonna bye muvudde nabyo mu lyato, ne buli kitonde kyonna ku nsi.
And with every living creature that [is] with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you, from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.
11 Nkola endagaano yange eno nammwe: tewaabengawo mataba gazikiriza bulamu bwonna, tewakyaddayo kubaawo mataba gasaanyaawo nsi.”
And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
12 Katonda n’agamba nti, “Kano ke kabonero ke nteeka wakati wange nammwe, na buli kitonde ekiramu ekiri nammwe, era n’ab’emirembe egiriddawo.
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.
13 Nteeka musoke wange mu kire, nga ke kabonero ak’endagaano wakati wange n’ensi.
I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
14 “Kale olunaatuukanga, bwe nnaaleetaanga ekire ku nsi, musoke anaalabikiranga ku bire,
And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
15 ne nzijukira endagaano yange nammwe na buli kiramu; era amazzi tegakyaddayo kuzikiriza biramu.
And 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.
16 Musoke bw’anaabanga ku bire, nnaamutunuuliranga ne nzijukira endagaano eteriggwaawo eriwo wakati wa Katonda na buli kitonde ekiramu ekiri ku nsi.”
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.
17 Katonda n’agamba Nuuwa nti, “Kano ke kabonero ak’endagaano gye ntaddewo wakati wange ne buli kiramu ekiri ku nsi.”
And God said to Noah, This [is] the token of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that [is] upon the earth.
18 Batabani ba Nuuwa abaava mu lyato ye Seemu, ne Kaamu ne Yafeesi. Kaamu ye yali kitaawe wa Kanani.
And the sons of Noah that went forth from the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham [was] the father of Canaan.
19 Bonna abasatu be baali batabani ba Nuuwa; era okuva mu bano ensi yonna yajjula abantu.
These three [were] the sons of Noah: and from them was the whole earth overspread.
20 Nuuwa n’atandika okulima n’asimba emizabbibu;
And Noah began [to be] a husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
21 n’anywa omwenge n’atamiira, ne yeebaka mu weema ng’ali bwereere.
And he drank of the wine, and was drunken, and he was uncovered within his tent.
22 Kaamu kitaawe wa Kanani n’alaba obwereere bwa kitaawe, n’abuulirako baganda be ababiri abaali ebweru.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
23 Awo ne bateeka olugoye ku bibegabega byabwe ne batambula ekyennyumannyuma, ne babikka ku bwereere bwa kitaabwe.
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.
24 Omwenge bwe gwamwamukako, Nuuwa n’azuukuka n’ategeera mutabani we omuto ky’amukoze.
And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done to him.
25 N’akolimira ezzadde lya Kaamu n’agamba nti, “Kanani akolimirwe, abeere muddu wa baddu eri baganda be.”
And he said, Cursed [be] Canaan, a servant of servants shall he be to his brethren.
26 Era n’agamba nti, “Mukama Katonda wange, awe Seemu omukisa, Kanani abeere muddu we.”
And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
27 Katonda yaza Yafeesi, abeere mu weema za Seemu, Kanani abeere muddu we.
God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
28 Oluvannyuma lw’amataba Nuuwa yawangaala emyaka emirala ebikumi bisatu mu ataano.
And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
29 Emyaka gyonna Nuuwa, gye yamala ku nsi ne giba lwenda mu amakumi ataano, n’afa.
And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
