Genesisy 9
1 Ary Andriamanitra nitso-drano an’ i Noa sy ny zanany hoe; Maroa fara sy mihabetsaha ary mamenoa ny tany.
Then God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth.
2 Ary ny tahotra sy horohoro anareo hahazo ny bibi-dia rehetra sy ny voro-manidina rehetra; ireny mbamin’ izay rehetra mandady na mikisaka amin’ ny tany sy ny hazandrano rehetra ao amin’ ny ranomasina dia efa natolotra eo an-tananareo.
The fear of you and the dread of you will be upon every living animal on the earth, upon every bird of the sky, upon everything that goes low on the ground, and upon all the fish of the sea. They are given into your hand.
3 Ny biby mihetsiketsika rehetra izay miaina dia ho fihinana ho anareo; dia efa nomeko anareo toy ny zava-maitso izy rehetra.
Every moving thing that lives will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.
4 Kanefa ny nofo izay mbola misy aina dia ny ràny no aza haninareo.
But you must not eat meat with its life—that is its blood—in it.
5 Fa ny ranareo kosa dia hadiniko, satria ainareo izany; eo amin’ ny tanan’ ny manan’ aina rehetra no hanadinako azy; ary eo amin’ ny tanan’ ny olona, dia eo amin’ ny tanan’ ny olona avy, no hanadinako ny ain’ ny olona.
But for your blood, the life that is in your blood, I will require payment. From the hand of every animal I will require it. From the hand of any man, that is, from the hand of one who has murdered his brother, I will require an accounting for the life of that man.
6 Izay mandatsaka ny ran’ olona, dia mba halatsak’ olona kosa ny ràny, satria tahaka ny endrik’ Andriamanitra no nanaovany ny olona.
Whoever sheds man's blood, by man will his blood be shed, for it was in the image of God that he made man.
7 Koa ny aminareo, dia maroa fara sy mihabetsaha; miteraha be eny ambonin’ ny tany sy mihabetsaha eny.
As for you, be fruitful and multiply, spread throughout the earth and multiply on it.”
8 Ary Andriamanitra niteny tamin’ i Noa sy tamin’ ny zanany, izay niaraka taminy, ka nanao hoe:
Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
9 Indro, Izaho efa manorina ny fanekeko aminareo sy amin’ ny taranakareo mandimby anareo
“As for me, listen! I am going to confirm my covenant with you and with your descendants after you,
10 sy amin’ ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra eo aminareo, na ny vorona, na ny biby fiompy, na ny bibi-dia rehetra eo aminareo: izay rehetra nivoaka avy tao anatin’ ny sambo-fiara, dia ny biby samy hafa rehetra.
and with every living creature that is with you, with the birds, the livestock, and every creature of the earth with you, from all that came out of the ark, to every living creature on the earth.
11 Dia aoriko ny fanekeko aminareo, ka tsy haringako amin’ ny safo-drano intsony ny nofo rehetra, ary tsy hisy safo-drano hanimba ny tany intsony.
I hereby confirm my covenant with you, that never again will all flesh be destroyed by the waters of a flood. Never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth.”
12 Ary hoy Andriamanitra: Izao no famantarana ny fanekena izay ataoko ho amiko sy ho aminareo mbamin’ ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra eo aminareo hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby:
God said, “This is the sign of the covenant which I am making between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations:
13 Ny avako efa napetrako eo amin’ ny rahona ho famantarana ny fanekena ho amiko sy ho amin’ ny tany.
I have set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
14 Ary raha mampiangona rahona eo ambonin’ ny tany Aho, ka hita eo amin’ ny rahona ny avana,
It will come about when I bring a cloud over the earth and the rainbow is seen in the cloud,
15 dia hotsarovako ny fanekeko izay ho amiko sy ho aminareo mbamin’ ny zava-manan’ aina, dia ny nofo rehetra; ary tsy hisy safo-drano, handringana ny nofo rehetra intsony.
then I will call to mind my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. The waters will never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.
16 Ary ho eo amin’ ny rahona ny avana; ary hitsinjo azy Aho hahatsiarovako ny fanekena mandrakizay izay ho amin’ Andriamanitra sy ho amin’ ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra, dia ny nofo rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
The rainbow will be in the clouds and I will see it, in order to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”
17 Ary hoy Andriamanitra tamin’ i Noa: Izany no famantarana ny fanekena izay naoriko ho amiko sy ho amin’ ny nofo rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
Then God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have confirmed between me and all flesh that is on the earth.”
18 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Noa izay izay nivoaka avy tamin’ ny sambo-fiara dia Sema sy Hama ary Jafeta; ary i Hama no rain’ i Kanana.
The sons of Noah that came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham was the father of Canaan.
19 Ireo telo lahy ireo no zanak’ i Noa; ary avy tamin’ ireo no nielezan’ ny olona tambonin’ ny tany rehetra.
These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.
20 Ary vao tonga mpiasa tany Noa ka nanao tanim-boaloboka.
Noah began to be a farmer, and he planted a vineyard.
21 Ary nisotro tamin’ ny divay izy ka mamo; dia nanary lamba izy ka nitanjaka tao anatin’ ny lainy.
He drank some of the wine and became drunk. He was lying uncovered in his tent.
22 Ary hitan’ i Hama, rain’ i Kanana ny fitanjahan’ ny rainy, dia nambarany tamin’ ny rahalahiny roa lahy teo ivelany.
Then Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father and told his two brothers outside.
23 Ary nalain’ i Sema sy Jafeta ny lamba ka nentin’ izy mirahalahy teo an-tsorony, dia nanao dia mianotra izy ka nandrakotra ny fitanjahan’ ny rainy; ary ny tavany tsy nanatrika, ka dia tsy hitany ny fitanjahan’ ny rainy.
So Shem and Japheth took a robe and laid it upon both their shoulders, and walked backwards and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned the other way, so they did not see their father's nakedness.
24 Dia nahatsiaro Noa, rehefa afaka ny hamamoany, ka nahafantatra izay efa nataon’ ny zanany faralahy taminy.
When Noah awoke from his wine, he learned what his youngest son had done to him.
25 Dia hoy izy: Ho voaozona anie Kanana; Ho tena andevon’ ny rahalahiny izy.
So he said, “Cursed be Canaan. May he be a servant to his brothers' servants.”
26 Ary hoy koa izy: Isaorana anie Jehovah, Andriamanitr’ i Sema; Ary aoka Kanana ho andevony.
He also said, “May Yahweh, the God of Shem, be blessed, and may Canaan be his servant.
27 Hataon’ Andriamanitra malalaka anie Jafeta; Ary aoka honina ao an-dain’ i Sema izy; Ary aoka Kanana ho andevony.
May God extend the territory of Japheth, and let him make his home in the tents of Shem. May Canaan be his servant.”
28 Ary ny andro niainan’ i Noa taorian’ ny safo-drano dia dimam-polo amby telon-jato taona.
After the flood, Noah lived three hundred fifty years.
29 Ary ny andro rehetra niainan’ i Noa dia dimam-polo amby sivin-jato taona; dia maty izy.
All the days of Noah were nine hundred fifty years, and then he died.
