< Genesisy 9 >

1 Nitatan’Añahare t’i Nòake naho o ana-dahi’eo ami’ty hoe: Mitomboa naho mangetse­ke­tse­ha vaho liforo ty tane toy.
God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth.
2 Le amy ze kila biby ambone’ ty tane toy naho amy ze voron-tioke naho amy ze mpisi­tsitse an-tane atoy, vaho amy ze fiañe an-driak’ ao ty fihembañañe naho ty firevendreveñañe ama’ nahareo, fa natolotse am-pità’ areo.
And the fear of you and the dread of you will be on every wild animal of the earth, and on every tame animal of the earth, and on every flying creature of the sky, and on everything that crawls on the ground, and on all the fish of the sea; into your power they are given.
3 Ho fikama’ areo ze hene raha veloñe; manahake ty nanolo­rako anahareo o ahetse maindoñindoñeo ty anolorako ze satan’ Añahare.
Every moving thing that lives will be food for you. As I gave the green plants, I now give you everything.
4 Fe tsy ho kamae’ areo ze nofotse reketse ty havelo’e—i lio’ey.
But flesh with its life, its blood, you shall not eat.
5 Toe ho paiaeko an-taña’ ze fonga biby naho am-pità’ondaty naho am-pitàn-drahalahi’ ondaty ty lio’areo, ty havelo’areo. Ho paiako ty fiai’indatiy.
And surely I will require a reckoning for your lifeblood; from every animal I will require it, and from humans. From every human being I will require it for the life of his fellow human being.
6 Ze mampiori-dio ondaty, Le hampiorihe’ondaty ka ty lio’e. Fa ami’ty vintan’Añahare ty nitseneañe ondatio.
Whoever takes a human life, by a human will his life be taken, for God made humankind in his own image.
7 Aa le mahavokara vaho mangetse­ketseha, miraoraòa an-tane atoy vaho mihamaroa ama’e.
And as for you, be fruitful and multiply, and increase abundantly on the earth, and subdue it."
8 Le hoe t’i Andrianañahare amy Nòake naho amo ana-dahi’e nindre ama’eo:
God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
9 Ingo te mañori-pañina ama’areo naho amo tarira’areo hanonjohio iraho,
"And as for me, look, I establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
10 naho amy ze kila raha veloñe mindre ama’areo, o voroñeo, o hareo, naho ze fonga bibi’ ty tane toy, ze niakatse i lakam-poloaiy, ze kila’ bibi’ ty tane toy.
and with every living creature that is with you: the flying creatures, and the tame animals, and every wild animal of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ship.
11 Horizako ama’areo ty fañinako te tsy hampaitoeñe an-drano fiempoempoañe ka ze kila nofotse, vaho tsy ho rots­ahe’ ty fiempoempoan-drano ka ty tane toy.
I will establish my covenant with you; and all flesh will never again be cut off by the waters of the flood, neither will there ever again be a flood to destroy the earth."
12 Hoe t’i Andrianañahare, Zao ty vilo’ ty fañina ifañinàko ama’areo naho amo kila raha veloñe mindre ama’ areoo pak’amy ze hene tariratse añe:
God said, "This is the sign of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
13 Ho reketeko amo rahoñeo ty àvako ho vilo’ ty fañinako ami’ty tane toy.
I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
14 Ie ampandrahoñeko ty ambone’ ty tane toy, le hiboak’ amo rahoñeo i avañey
It will happen, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,
15 le ho tiahiko i fañinako ama’ areo naho amo raha veloñe ama’ ­nofotse iabioy; vaho tsy ho empoempoe’ o ranoo ka ze hene nofotse handrotsake aze.
and 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.
16 Ie amo rahoñeo i avañey, le ho treako vaho ho tiahiko i fañina tsy ho modo añivon’ Añahare naho ze hene raha veloñe ama’ nofotse an-tane atoiy.
The rainbow will be in the cloud. I will look at it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between me and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth."
17 Hoe t’i Andrianañahare amy Nòake, izay ty ho vilo’ i fañina norizeko añivo’ Ahy naho ze kila nofotse an-tane atoiy.
God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth."
18 O ana’ i Nòake niakatse i lakam-poloaio, le i Seme naho i Kame vaho Ièfete. Rae’ i Kanàne t’i Kame.
The sons of Noah who came out of the ship were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham is the father of Canaan.
19 I telo rey ro ana-dahi’ i Nòake; le boak’ am’ iereo ty nanitsihañe ty tane toy.
These were the three sons of Noah, and from them the whole earth was populated.
20 Niorotse niava tane t’i Nòake vaho nambole valoboke.
Noah, a farmer, was the first to plant a vineyard.
21 Ie nikama ty divai’e le nimamo vaho tsy aman-tsaroñe t’ie an-kiboho’e ao.
He drank of the wine and got drunk. He was uncovered within his tent.
22 Nizoe’ i Kame, rae’ i Kanàne, ty fiha­lon-drae’e le vinola’e ty rahalahi’e roe alafe ao.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked and told his two brothers outside.
23 Aa le rinambe’ i Seme naho Ièfete ty lamba, le nasampe an-tsoro’ iareo roe le nidisa-voly nanaroñe ty fihalon-drae’e; nitolike ty lahara’iareo tsy nahatrea i fihaloa’ey.
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 turned the other way, and they did not see their father's nakedness.
24 Ie nivañoñe amy divai’ey t’i Nòake naho nahafohiñe i nanoa’ i ana-tsitso’ey,
Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him.
25 le hoe re, Afàtse t’i Kanàne fa ho mpitorom-pitoroñe amo roahalahi’eo. Hoe ka re,
He said, "Canaan is cursed. He will be servant of servants to his brothers."
26 Rengèñe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ i Seme, fa ho mpitoro’e t’i Kanàne.
He said, "Blessed be the God of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.
27 Hampientaren’Añahare t’Ièfete, ie himoneñe an-kiboho’ i Seme, vaho ho mpitoro’e t’i Kanàne.
May God enlarge Japheth. Let him dwell in the tents of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant."
28 Niveloñe telon-jato tsy limampolo taoñe tafara’ i fiempoempoañey t’i Nòake.
Noah lived three hundred fifty years after the flood.
29 Nañeneke sivan-jato-tsi-limampolo taoñe ty hene andro’ i Nòake, vaho nihomake. Izay ty fanoñona’ o ana’ i Nòakeo
All the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years, then he died.
