Kenehi 9
1 Na ka manaakitia a Noa ratou ko ana tama e te Atua. I mea ia ki a ratou, Kia hua, kia tini koutou, kia kapi ano hoki te whenua i a koutou.
And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
2 A ko to koutou wehi, ko to koutou whakamataku, ka tau ki runga ki nga kirehe katoa o te whenua, ki nga manu katoa o te rangi, ki nga mea katoa e ngahue ana i runga i te whenua, ki nga ika katoa ano hoki o te moana; kua hoatu ena mea ki to koutou ringa.
And the fear of you, and the dread of you, shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the heaven; whatever is that moveth upon the earth, and all the fishes of the sea, are delivered into your hand.
3 Hei kai ma koutou nga mea korikori katoa, nga mea ora; rite tonu ki taku hoatutanga i nga otaota matomato taku hoatutanga i nga mea katoa ki a koutou.
Every moving thing that liveth shall be yours for food; even as the green herbs have I given you all things.
4 Otiia kaua e kainga e koutou te kikokiko me tona ora, ara ko ona toto.
But flesh in which its life is, which is its blood, shall ye not eat.
5 Na ko o koutou toto, ko te toto e ora nei koutou, he pono ka rapua e ahau he utu; ka rapua e ahau he utu i nga kirehe katoa; i te tangata ano hoki, ka rapua e ahau he utu mo te matenga o te tangata i te teina o ia tangata, o ia tangata.
Your blood, however, on which your lives depend, 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 Ko ia e whakaheke i nga toto o te tangata, ma te tangata ano ona toto e whakaheke: no te Atua hoki te ahua i hanga ai e ia te tangata.
Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God made he man.
7 A ko koutou, kia hua, kia tini; kia nui to koutou uri ki runga kite whenua, kia tini hoki ki reira.
And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly on the earth, and multiply thereon.
8 A i korero te Atua ki a Noa ratou ko ana tama, i mea,
And God spoke unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
9 Ko ahau nei, nana, ka whakapumau ahau i taku kawenata ki a koutou, ki to koutou uri i muri i a koutou;
And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
10 Ki nga mea ora katoa hoki i a koutou, ki te manu, ki te kararehe, ki nga kirehe katoa hoki o te whenua e noho ana i a koutou; ki nga mea katoa i puta mai i roto i te aaka, puta noa ki nga kirehe katoa o te whenua.
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 those that go out of the ark, for every beast of the earth.
11 A ka whakapumautia e ahau taku kawenata ki a koutou; e kore e hatepea atu nga kikokiko katoa a muri ake nei e nga wai o te waipuke; e kore ano e puta mai he waipuke a muri ake nei hei whakangaro mo te whenua.
And I will establish my covenant with you; and all flesh shall not be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there be any more a flood to destroy the earth.
12 Ka mea te Atua, Ko te tohu tenei o te kawenata, e whakatakotoria nei e ahau ki waenganui oku, o koutou tae atu ki nga mea ora katoa i a koutou, mo nga whakatupuranga mutungakore:
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 Ka whakatakotoria e ahau taku kopere ki te kapua, a ka waiho hei tohu mo te kawenata i waenganui oku, o te whenua.
My bow I do set in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of the covenant between me and the earth.
14 Tenei ake ano, i te wa e whakaputa ai ahau i te kapua ki runga ki te whenua, ka kitea te kopere i te kapua:
And it shall come to pass, that, when I bring a cloud over the earth, and the bow shall be seen in the cloud,
15 A ka mahara ahau ki taku kawenata i waenganui oku, o koutou me nga mea ora katoa, ara nga kikokiko katoa; e kore nga wai e pupuke a muri ake nei hei whakangaro i nga kikokiko katoa.
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 A ka piri te kopere ki te kapua; a ka titiro atu ahau ki taua mea, kia mahara ai ahau ki te kawenata mau tonu i waenganui o te Atua, o nga wairua ora katoa o nga kikokiko katoa i runga i te whenua.
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 Na ka mea te Atua ki a Noa, Ko te tohu tenei o te kawenata e whakapumautia nei e ahau ki waenganui oku, o nga kikokiko katoa i runga i te whenua.
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.
18 Na ko nga tama a Noa, i puta mai nei i roto i te aaka, ko Hema, ko Hama, ko Iapeta: a ko Hama te matua o Kanaana.
And the sons of Noah that went forth from the ark, were Shem, Ham and Japheth; and Ham was the father of Canaan.
19 Ko nga tama tokotoru enei a Noa: a na enei i kapi ai te whenua katoa.
These three were the sons of Noah, and of them was the whole earth overspread.
20 Na ka timata a Noa te ngaki whenua, a whakatokia ana e ia he mara waina:
And Noah, who was a husbandman, began his work, and he planted a vineyard.
21 A ka inumia e ia te waina, ka haurangi; na ka takoto tahanga i roto i tona teneti.
And he drank of the wine, and became drunken; and he uncovered himself within his tent.
22 A, i te kitenga o Hama, o te matua o Kanaana, i tona matua e takoto tahanga ana, ka korerotia e ia ki ona tuakana tokorua i waho.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told it his two brothers without.
23 Na ka tango a Hema raua ko Iapeta i tetahi kakahu, maka iho e raua ki runga ki o raua pokohiwi, na ka haere whakatuara atu raua, a hipokina ana te wahi takoto kau o to raua papa; me te ahu ano o raua kanohi ki muri, a kihai raua i kite i te wahi takoto kau o to raua papa.
And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon the shoulders of both of them, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were turned backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.
24 Na ka maranga ake a Noa i tana waina, ka mohio ki ta tana potiki i mea ai ki a ia.
And Noah awoke from his wine, and discovered what his younger son had done unto him.
25 Na ka mea ia, Ka kanga a Kanaana, ka waiho ia hei tino pononga ma ona tuakana.
And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
26 I mea ano ia, Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, te Atua o Hema; a ka waiho a Kanaana hei pononga mana.
And he said, Blessed be the Lord, the God of Shem; and Canaan shall be a servant unto them.
27 Ka meinga a Iapeta e te Atua kia tohatoha noa atu, kia noho hoki ia ki nga teneti o Hema; a hei pononga a Kanaana mana.
May God enlarge the boundaries of Japheth, and may he dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be a servant unto them.
28 A e toru rau e rima tekau nga tau i ora ai a Noa i muri i te waipuke.
And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
29 A ko nga ra katoa o Noa e iwa rau e rima tekau tau: a ka mate ia.
And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.
