Mwanzo 9
1 Ndipo Mungu akambariki Noa na wanawe, akiwaambia, “Zaeni mkaongezeke kwa idadi na mkaijaze tena dunia.
And God blessed Noe and his sonnes and sayd vnto them: Increase and multiplye and fyll the erth.
2 Wanyama wote wa duniani, ndege wote wa angani, kila kiumbe kitambaacho juu ya ardhi, na samaki wote wa baharini wamekabidhiwa mikononi mwenu, nao watawaogopa na kuwahofu.
The feare also and drede of yow be vppon all beastes of the erth and vppon all foules of the ayre ad vppon all that crepeth on the erth and vppon all fyshes of the see which are geven vnto youre handes
3 Kila kitu chenye uhai kiendacho kitakuwa chakula chenu. Kama vile nilivyowapa mimea mbalimbali, sasa nawapa kila kitu.
And all that moveth vppon the erth havynge lyfe shall be youre meate: Euen as ye grene herbes so geue I yow all thynge.
4 “Lakini kamwe msile nyama ambayo bado ina damu ya uhai wake, kwa maana damu ni uhai.
Only the flesh with his life which is his bloud se that ye eate not.
5 Hakika damu ya uhai wenu nitaidai. Nitaidai kutoka kwa kila mnyama. Kutoka kwa kila mwanadamu pia nitaidai kwa ajili ya uhai wa mtu mwenzake.
For verely the bloude of yow wherein youre lyves are wyll I requyre: Eue of the hande of all beastes wyll I requyre it And of the hande of man and of the hand off euery mannes brother wyll I requyre the lyfe of man:
6 “Yeyote amwagaye damu ya mwanadamu, damu yake itamwagwa na mwanadamu, kwa kuwa katika mfano wa Mungu, Mungu alimuumba mwanadamu.
so yt he which shedeth mannes bloude shall haue hys bloud shed by man agayne: for God made man after his awne lycknesse.
7 Kuhusu ninyi, zaeni mwongezeke kwa wingi, mzidi katika dunia na kuijaza.”
See that ye encrease and waxe and be occupyde vppon the erth and multiplye therein.
8 Ndipo Mungu akamwambia Noa na wanawe pamoja naye:
Farthermore God spake vnto Noe and to hys sonnes wyth hym saynge:
9 “Sasa mimi ninaweka Agano langu nanyi, pamoja na uzao wenu baada yenu,
see I make my bod wyth you and youre seed after you
10 pia na kila kiumbe hai kilichokuwa pamoja nanyi: Ndege, wanyama wa kufugwa na wanyama wote wa porini, wale wote waliotoka katika safina pamoja nanyi, kila kiumbe hai duniani.
and wyth all lyvynge thinge that is wyth you: both foule and catell and all maner beste of the erth that is wyth yow of all that commeth out of the arke what soeuer beste of the erth it be.
11 Ninaweka Agano nanyi: Kamwe uhai hautafutwa tena kwa gharika, kamwe haitakuwepo tena gharika ya kuangamiza dunia.”
I make my bonde wyth yow that hence forth all flesh shall not be destroyed wyth yt waters of any floud ad yt hence forth there shall not be a floud to destroy the erth.
12 Mungu akasema, “Hii ni ishara ya Agano ninalofanya kati yangu na ninyi na kila kiumbe hai kilicho pamoja nanyi, Agano kwa vizazi vyote vijavyo:
And God sayd. This is the token of my bode which I make betwene me and yow ad betwene all lyvynge thyng that is with yow for ever:
13 Nimeweka upinde wangu wa mvua mawinguni, nao utakuwa ishara ya Agano nifanyalo kati yangu na dunia.
I wyll sette my bowe in the cloudes and it shall be a sygne of the appoyntment made betwene me and the erth:
14 Wakati wowote ninapotanda mawingu juu ya dunia na upinde wa mvua ukijitokeza mawinguni,
So that when I brynge in cloudes vpo ye erth the bowe shall appere in ye cloudes.
15 nitakumbuka Agano langu kati yangu na ninyi na viumbe vyote vilivyo hai vya kila aina. Kamwe maji hayatakuwa tena gharika ya kuangamiza uhai wote.
And than wyll I thynke vppon my testament which I haue made betwene me and yow and all that lyveth what soeuer flesh it be. So that henceforth there shall be no more waters to make a floud to destroy all flesh.
16 Wakati wowote upinde wa mvua unapotokea mawinguni, nitauona na kukumbuka Agano la milele kati ya Mungu na viumbe vyote vilivyo hai vya kila aina duniani.”
The bowe shalbe in the cloudes and I wyll loke vpon it to remembre the euerlastynge testament betwene God and all that lyveth vppon the erth what soeuer flesh it be.
17 Hivyo Mungu akamwambia Noa, “Hii ndiyo ishara ya Agano ambalo nimelifanya kati yangu na viumbe vyote vilivyo hai duniani.”
And God sayd vnto Noe: This is the sygne of the testament which I have made betwene me and all flesh yt is on the erth.
18 Wana wa Noa waliotoka ndani ya safina ni: Shemu, Hamu na Yafethi. (Hamu ndiye alikuwa baba wa Kanaani.)
The sonnes of Noe that came out of the arke were: Sem Ham and Iapheth. And Ham he is the father of Canaa.
19 Hawa ndio waliokuwa wana watatu wa Noa, kutokana nao watu walienea katika dunia.
These are the. iij. sonnes of Noe and of these was all the world overspred.
20 Noa akawa mkulima, akawa mtu wa kwanza kupanda mizabibu.
And Noe beynge an husbad man went furth and planted a vyneyarde
21 Alipokunywa huo mvinyo wake akalewa na akalala uchi kwenye hema lake.
and drancke of the wyne and was droncke and laye vncouered in the myddest of his tet.
22 Hamu, baba wa Kanaani, akauona uchi wa baba yake na kuwaeleza ndugu zake wawili waliokuwa nje.
And Ham the father of Canaan sawe his fathers prevytees and tolde his ij. brethren that were wythout.
23 Lakini Shemu na Yafethi wakachukua nguo wakaitanda mabegani mwao wote wawili, kisha wakaenda kinyumenyume, wakaufunika uchi wa baba yao. Nyuso zao zilielekea upande mwingine ili wasiuone uchi wa baba yao.
And Sem and Iapheth toke a mantell and put it on both there shulders ad went backward ad covered there fathers secrets but there faces were backward So that they sawe not there fathers nakydnes.
24 Noa alipolevuka kutoka kwenye mvinyo wake na kujua lile ambalo mwanawe mdogo kuliko wote alilokuwa amemtendea,
As soone as Noe was awaked fro his wyne and wyst what his yongest sonne had done vnto hym
25 akasema, “Alaaniwe Kanaani! Atakuwa mtumwa wa chini sana kuliko watumwa wote kwa ndugu zake.”
he sayd: cursed be Canaan ad a seruante, of all seruantes be he to his brethren.
26 Pia akasema, “Abarikiwe Bwana, Mungu wa Shemu! Kanaani na awe mtumwa wa Shemu.
And he sayd: Blessed be the LORde God of Se and Canaan be his seruante.
27 Mungu na apanue mipaka ya Yafethi; Yafethi na aishi katika mahema ya Shemu, na Kanaani na awe mtumwa wake.”
God increase Iapheth that he may dwelle in the tentes of Sem. And Canaan be their seruante.
28 Baada ya gharika Noa aliishi miaka 350.
And Noe lyved after the floude. iij. hundred and. l. yere:
29 Noa alikuwa na jumla ya miaka 950, ndipo akafa.
So that all the dayes of Noe were ix. hundred and. l. yere ad than he dyed.
