Genesisi 9
1 Ipapo Mwari akaropafadza Noa navanakomana vake, akati kwavari, “Berekanai muwande uye muzadze nyika.
And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
2 Mhuka dzose dzenyika neshiri dzose dzedenga dzichakutyai uye dzichakuvhundukai; zvisikwa zvose zvinokambaira panyika, nehove dzose dzegungwa, zvakapiwa mumaoko enyu.
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 Zvinhu zvose zvinorarama nezvinokambaira zvichava zvokudya zvenyu. Sezvandakakupai muriwo munyoro, ndiri kukupai zvino zvinhu zvose.
Every moving thing that liveth shall be yours for food; even as the green herbs have I given you all things.
4 “Asi hamufaniri kudya nyama, ropa rayo roupenyu richiri mairi.
But flesh in which its life is, which is its blood, shall ye not eat.
5 Uye zvirokwazvo ndichatsvaka kuti muzvidavirire nokuda kweropa roupenyu hwenyu. Ndichatsvaka kuti muzvidavirire pamhuka dzose. Uye kubvawo pamunhu mumwe nomumwe, ndichatsvaka kuti azvidavirire nokuda kwoupenyu hwomunhu wokwake.
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 “Ani naani anoteura ropa romunhu, ropa rake richateurwawo nomunhu; nokuti nomufananidzo waMwari, Mwari akaita munhu.
Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God made he man.
7 Kana murimi, berekanai muwande; muwande panyika uye muwande kwazvo pamusoro payo.”
And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly on the earth, and multiply thereon.
8 Ipapo Mwari akati kuna Noa navanakomana vaaiva navo,
And God spoke unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
9 “Zvino ndava kusimbisa sungano yangu newe uye nezvizvarwa zvako zvinotevera,
And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
10 uye nezvisikwa zvipenyu zvose zvakanga zvinewe, shiri, zvipfuwo nemhuka dzose dzesango, dzose dziya dzakabuda newe muareka, zvisikwa zvipenyu zvose zviri panyika.
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 Ndiri kusimbisa sungano yangu newe: Zvipenyu zvose hazvichatongoparadzwizve nemvura yamafashamu; hakuchatongovizve namafashamu okuti aparadze nyika.”
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 Uye Mwari akati, “Ichi ndicho chiratidzo chesungano yandiri kuita pakati pangu nemi nezvisikwa zvose zvipenyu zvinemi, sungano yamarudzi ose ari kuzouya:
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 Ndaisa muraravungu wangu mumakore, uye uchava chiratidzo chesungano pakati pangu nenyika.
My bow I do set in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of the covenant between me and the earth.
14 Pose pandinouyisa makore pamusoro penyika, uye muraravungu ukaonekwa mumakore,
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 ndicharangarira sungano yangu pakati pangu nemi nezvisikwa zvipenyu zvose zvamarudzi ose. Mvura haingatongoitizve mafashamu kuti iparadze zvipenyu zvose.
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 Pose panoonekwa muraravungu mumakore, ndichaona ndigorangarira sungano yangu isingaperi pakati paMwari nezvisikwa zvipenyu zvose zvemhando dzose panyika.”
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 Saka Mwari akati kuna Noa, “Ichi ndicho chiratidzo chesungano yandakasimbisa pakati pangu nezvipenyu zvose zviri panyika.”
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 Vanakomana vaNoa vakabuda muareka vaiva Shemu, Hamu naJafeti. (Hamu akanga ari baba vaKenani.)
And the sons of Noah that went forth from the ark, were Shem, Ham and Japheth; and Ham was the father of Canaan.
19 Ava ndivo vakanga vari vanakomana vatatu vaNoa, uye kwavari ndiko kwakabva vanhu vakapararira pamusoro penyika.
These three were the sons of Noah, and of them was the whole earth overspread.
20 Noa akava murimi, akarima munda wamazambiringa.
And Noah, who was a husbandman, began his work, and he planted a vineyard.
21 Akati anwa imwe yewaini yawo, akadhakwa uye akavata akashama mutende rake.
And he drank of the wine, and became drunken; and he uncovered himself within his tent.
22 Hamu, baba vaKenani, akaona kusasimira kwababa vake akaudza mukoma wake nomununʼuna vake vaiva panze.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told it his two brothers without.
23 Asi Shemu naJafeti vakatora nguo vakayiisa pamapfudzi avo; ipapo vakafamba nenhendashure vakafukidza baba vavo pakusasimira kwavo. Zviso zvavo zvakanga zvakatarisa parutivi kuitira kuti varege kuona kusasimira kwababa vavo.
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 Noa akati amuka kubva pawaini yake uye akaziva zvakanga zvaitwa kwaari nomwanakomana wake muduku,
And Noah awoke from his wine, and discovered what his younger son had done unto him.
25 akati, “Kenani ngaatukwe! Achava muranda wavaranda kuvakuru vake.”
And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
26 Akatiwo, “Ngaakudzwe Jehovha, Mwari waShemu! Kenani ngaave muranda waShemu.
And he said, Blessed be the Lord, the God of Shem; and Canaan shall be a servant unto them.
27 Mwari ngaakurise nyika yaJafeti; Jafeti ngaagare mumatende aShemu, uye Kenani ngaave muranda wake.”
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 Shure kwamafashamu, Noa akararama kwamakore mazana matatu namakumi mashanu.
And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
29 Pamwe chete, Noa akararama kwamakore mazana mapfumbamwe namakumi mashanu, uye akafa.
And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.
