1 त्यसपछि परमेश्‍वरले नोआ र तिनका छोराहरूलाई आशिष् दिनुभयो र भन्‍नुभयो, “फल्‍दै-फुल्दै, वृद्धि हुँदै र पृथ्वीमा भरिँदै जाओ ।
And God blessed Noah and his sons. And he said to them: “Increase, and multiply, and fill the earth.
2 जमिनमा चलहल गर्ने हरेक जीवित प्राणी, आकाशका हरेक पक्षी, जमिनमा घस्रने हरेक जन्तु र समुद्रका सबै माछामाथि तिमीहरूको डर र त्रास रहनेछ । ती तिमीहरूका हातमा सुम्पिएका छन् ।
And let the fear and trembling of you be upon all the animals of the earth, and upon all the birds of the air, along with all that moves across the earth. All the fish of the sea have been delivered into your hand.
3 हरेक चलहल गर्ने प्राणी तिमीहरूका निम्ति भोजन हुनेछन् । मैले तिमीहरूलाई हरिया वनस्पतिहरू दिएजस्तै अब म तिमीहरूलाई सबै थोक दिन्छु ।
And everything that moves and lives will be food for you. Just as with the edible plants, I have delivered them all to you,
4 तर तिमीहरूले मासु त्यसको प्राण दिने रगतसमेत नखाओ ।
except that flesh with blood you shall not eat.
5 तर तिमीहरूको प्राण दिने रगतको साटो म लेखा लिनेछु । हरेक पशुबाट म प्राणको साटो लिनेछु । आफ्नो भाइको हत्या गर्ने हरेक मानिसको हातबाट म त्यस मानिसको प्राणको साटो लिनेछु ।
For I will examine the blood of your lives at the hand of every beast. So also, at the hand of mankind, at the hand of each man and his brother, I will examine the life of mankind.
6 जसले मानिसको रगत बगाउँछ मानिसद्वारा नै त्यसको रगत बगाइनेछ, किनकि परमेश्‍वरले मानिसलाई आफ्नै स्वरूपमा बनाउनुभयो ।
Whoever will shed human blood, his blood will be poured out. For man was indeed made to the image of God.
7 तिमीहरूचाहिँ पृथ्वीमा फल्दै-फुल्दै, वृद्धि हुँदै, फैलँदै जाओ ।”
But as for you: increase and multiply, and go forth upon the earth and fulfill it.”
8 त्यसपछि परमेश्‍वरले नोआ र तिनका छोराहरूलाई यसो भन्‍नुभयो,
To Noah and to his sons with him, God also said this:
9 “मेरो कुरा सुन! तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूपछि आउने तिमीहरूका सन्तानहरू, तिमीहरूसँगै भएका हरेक जीवित प्राणी अर्थात्
“Behold, I will establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
10 पक्षीहरू, पालिने पशुहरू र जहाजबाट बाहिर आउनेदेखि पृथ्वीमा भएका हरेक जीवित प्राणीसित म मेरो करार स्थापित गर्दै छु ।
and with every living soul that is with you: as much with the birds as with the cattle and all the animals of the earth that have gone forth from the ark, and with all the wild beasts of the earth.
11 जलप्रलयको पानीद्वारा फेरि सबै प्राणी नष्‍ट गरिनेछैनन् भनी म मेरो करार तिमीहरूसित स्थापित गर्दछु । पृथ्वीलाई सर्वनाश गर्ने जलप्रलय फेरि कहिल्यै आउनेछैन ।
I will establish my covenant with you, and no longer will all that is flesh be put to death by the waters of a great flood, and, henceforth, there will not be a great flood to utterly destroy the earth.”
12 परमेश्‍वरले भन्‍नुभयो, “पुस्तौँको निम्ति मेरो र तिमीहरूसाथै हरेक जीवित प्राणीसित मैले जुन करार बाँध्दै छु, त्यसको चिन्ह यही हुन्छ
And God said: “This is the sign of the pact that I grant between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations.
13 कि मैले बादलमा इन्द्रेणी राखेको छु, र यो मेरो र पृथ्वीको बिचमा करारको चिन्ह हुनेछ ।
I will place my arc in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the pact between myself and the earth.
14 मैले पृथ्वीमाथि बादल फिँजाउँदा जब इन्द्रेणी देखा पर्छ
And when I obscure the sky with clouds, my arc will appear in the clouds.
15 तब म मेरो करारलाई सम्झनेछु जुन करार मेरो र तिमीहरूसाथै हरेक जीवित प्राणीको बिचमा बाँधिएको छ । जलप्रलयले फेरि कहिल्यै सबै प्राणीलाई सर्वनाश गर्नेछैन ।
And I will remember my covenant with you, and with every living soul that enlivens flesh. And there will no longer be waters from a great flood to wipe away all that is flesh.
16 परमेश्‍वर र पृथ्वीमा रहेका सबै जीवित प्राणीबिच बाँधिएको नित्य रहिरहने कराको सम्झना गर्नलाई म बादलमा देखा पर्ने इन्द्रेणीलाई हेर्नेछु ।”
And the arc will be in the clouds, and I will see it, and I will remember the everlasting covenant that was enacted between God and every living soul of all that is flesh upon the earth.”
17 तब परमेश्‍वरले नोआलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “मेरो र पृथ्वीमा भएका सबै जीवित प्राणीको बिचमा मैले स्थापित गरेको करारको चिन्ह यही हो ।”
And God said to Noah, “This will be the sign of the covenant that I have established between myself and all that is flesh upon the earth.”
18 जहाजबाट बाहिर निस्केर आएका नोआका छोराहरू शेम, हाम र येपेत थिए । हाम कनानका पिता थिए ।
And so the sons of Noah, who came out of the ark, were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Now Ham himself is the father of Canaan.
19 यी तिन जना नोआका छोराहरू थिए, र यिनीहरूबाट नै समस्त पृथ्वी भरियो ।
These three are the sons of Noah. And from these all the family of mankind was spread over the whole earth.
20 नोआ किसान हुन लागे, र तिनले दाखबारी लगाए ।
And Noah, a good farmer, began to cultivate the land, and he planted a vineyard.
21 दाखमद्य पिएर तिनी मात्तिए । तिनी आफ्नो पालमा नाङ्गै पल्टिरहेका थिए ।
And by drinking its wine, he became inebriated and was naked in his tent.
22 तब कनानका पिता हामले आफ्ना पिताको नाङ्गोपन देखे र बाहिर आएर दुवै दाजुलाई बताइदिए ।
Because of this, when Ham, the father of Canaan, had indeed seen the privates of his father to be naked, he reported it to his two brothers outside.
23 त्यसैले, शेम र येपेतले एउटा लबेदा लिएर त्यसलाई काँधमा हाले अनि पछिल्तिर सर्दै गएर तिनीहरूका पिताको नाङ्गोपन ढाकिदिए । तिनीहरूको अनुहार अर्कोपट्टि फर्केकाले तिनीहरूले आफ्ना पिताको नाङ्गोपन देखेनन् ।
And truly, Shem and Japheth put a cloak upon their arms, and, advancing backwards, covered the privates of their father. And their faces were turned away, so that they did not see their father’s manhood.
24 नोआ आफ्नो मद्यको लतबाट उठेपछि तिनका कान्छा छोराले तिनलाई के गरेका थिए भनी तिनलाई थाहा भयो ।
Then Noah, awaking from the wine, when he had learned what his younger son had done to him,
25 त्यसैले तिनले भने, “श्रापित होस् कनान । त्यो आफ्ना दाजुहरूका कमाराहरूका पनि कमारा होस् ।”
he said, “Cursed be Canaan, a servant of servants will he be to his brothers.”
26 तिनले यसो पनि भने, “शेमका परमेश्‍वर यहोवे धन्यका होऊन्, र कनान त्यसको कमारो होस् ।
And he said: “Blessed be the Lord God of Shem, let Canaan be his servant.
27 परमेश्‍वरले येपेतको क्षेत्र वृद्धि गर्नुभएको होस् र त्यसले शेमका पालहरूमा बास गरून् । कनान त्यसका कमारा होस् ।”
May God enlarge Japheth, and may he live in the tents of Shem, and let Canaan be his servant.”
28 जलप्रलयपछि नोआ तिन सय पचास वर्ष बाँचे ।
And after the great flood, Noah lived for three hundred and fifty years.
29 नोआको जम्मा उमेर नौ सय पचास वर्ष भयो, अनि तिनी मरे
And all his days were completed in nine hundred and fifty years, and then he died.
