< Genesis 9 >

1 At binasbasan ng Dios si Noe at ang kaniyang mga anak, at sa kanila'y sinabi, Kayo'y magpalaanakin, at magpakarami at inyong kalatan ang lupa.
Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, “I want you to have many children who will live all over the earth.
2 At ang takot sa inyo at sindak sa inyo ay mapapasa bawa't hayop sa lupa, at sa bawa't ibon sa himpapawid; lahat ng umuusad sa lupa, at lahat ng isda sa dagat, ay ibinibigay sa inyong kamay.
All the wild animals on the earth and all the birds, all the creatures that scurry across the ground, and all the fish, will be very afraid [DOU] of you. I have put them under your control.
3 Bawa't gumagalaw na nabubuhay ay magiging pagkain ninyo; gaya ng mga sariwang pananim na lahat ay ibinibigay ko sa inyo.
Just as I previously said you could eat green plants for food, now I am saying you can eat everything that lives and moves.
4 Nguni't ang lamang may buhay, na siya niyang dugo, ay huwag ninyong kakanin.
[It is blood that causes creatures to be alive], therefore you must not eat meat that still has blood in it after the animal is killed. [After you have drained the blood out, you may cook it and eat it].
5 At tunay na hihingan ko ng sulit ang inyong dugo, ang dugo ng inyong mga buhay: sa kamay ng bawa't ganid ay hihingan ko ng sulit; at sa kamay ng tao, sa kamay ng bawa't kapatid ng tao ay hihingan ko ng sulit ang buhay ng tao.
I insist that murderers must be executed. Animals that kill people must also be executed. The reason that everyone who murders someone else must be executed is that
6 Ang magbubo ng dugo ng tao, sa pamamagitan ng tao ay mabububo ang kaniyang dugo: sapagka't sa larawan ng Dios nilalang ang tao.
I made people to be like myself [in many ways]. So someone who murders another human being must be executed by others, [because he killed someone who is like me].
7 At kayo'y magpalaanakin at magpakarami; magsilago kayo ng sagana sa lupa, at kayo'y magsidami riyan.
As for you, I want you to produce many children, in order that they and their descendants may live all over the earth.”
8 At nagsalita ang Dios kay Noe, at sa kaniyang mga anak na kasama niya, na sinasabi,
God also said to Noah and his sons,
9 At ako, narito, aking pinagtitibay ang aking tipan sa inyo, at sa inyong binhi na susunod sa inyo;
“Listen carefully. I am now making a solemn promise to you and with your descendants,
10 At sa bawa't nilikhang may buhay na kasama ninyo, ang mga ibon, ang hayop at bawa't ganid sa lupa na kasama ninyo; sa lahat ng lumunsad sa sasakyan pati sa bawa't ganid sa lupa.
and with all the living creatures that are with you—including the birds, the livestock, and the wild animals—every living creature on the earth that came out of the boat with you.
11 At aking pagtitibayin ang aking tipan sa inyo; ni hindi ko na lilipulin ang lahat ng laman sa pamamagitan ng tubig ng baha; ni hindi na magkakaroon pa ng bahang gigiba ng lupa.
This is the promise that I am making to you: I will never again destroy all living creatures by a flood, or destroy everything else on the earth by a flood.”
12 At sinabi ng Dios, Ito ang tanda ng tipang ginawa ko sa inyo, at sa bawa't kinapal na may buhay na kasama ninyo sa buong panahon:
Then God said to him, “This is the sign to guarantee that I will keep the promise that I am making to you and to all living creatures, a promise that I will keep forever:
13 Ang aking bahaghari ay inilalagay ko sa alapaap, at siyang magiging tanda ng tipan ko at ng lupa.
[From time to time] I will put a rainbow in the sky. It will remind me of my promise that I have made to you and everything on the earth.
14 At mangyayari, pagka ako'y magbababa ng isang alapaap sa ibabaw ng lupa, na makikita ang bahaghari sa alapaap.
When I cause rain to fall from the clouds, and a rainbow appears in the sky,
15 At aalalahanin ko ang aking tipan, na inilagda ko sa akin at sa inyo, at sa bawa't kinapal na may buhay sa lahat ng laman; at ang tubig ay hindi na magiging bahang lilipol ng lahat ng laman.
it will remind me about the promise that I have made to you and all living creatures, my promise that there will never again be a flood that will destroy all living creatures.
16 At ang bahaghari ay pasa sa alapaap, at aking mamasdan, upang aking maalaala, ang walang hanggang tipan ng Dios at ng bawa't kinapal na may buhay sa lahat ng lamang nasa ibabaw ng lupa.
Whenever there is a rainbow in the sky, I will see it, and I will think about the promise that I have made to every living creature that is upon the earth, a promise that I will keep forever.”
17 At sinabi ng Dios kay Noe, Ito ang tanda ng tipang inilagda ko sa akin at sa lahat ng laman na nasa ibabaw ng lupa.
Then God said to Noah, “The rainbow will be the sign of the promise that I have made to all the creatures that live on the earth.”
18 At ang mga anak ni Noe na nagsilunsad sa sasakyan ay si Sem, at si Cham at si Japhet: at si Cham ay siyang ama ni Canaan.
The sons of Noah who came out of the boat were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham later became the father of Canaan.
19 Ang tatlong ito ay mga anak ni Noe: at sa mga ito'y nakalatan ang buong lupa.
All the people on the earth are descended from those three sons of Noah.
20 At nagpasimula si Noe na maging mangbubukid, at naglagay ng isang ubasan.
Noah was a farmer. He planted grapevines.
21 At uminom ng alak at nalango; at siya'y nahubaran sa loob ng kaniyang tolda.
[When they later produced grapes, he made wine from the grapes]. One day, when he drank too much of the wine, he became drunk, and he lay naked in his tent.
22 At si Cham na ama ni Canaan ay nakakita ng kahubaran ng kaniyang ama, at isinaysay sa kaniyang dalawang kapatid na nangasa labas.
Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father lying naked in the tent. So he went outside and told his two older brothers what he had seen.
23 At kumuha si Sem at si Japhet ng isang balabal, at isinabalikat nilang dalawa, at lumakad ng paurong, at tinakpan ang kahubaran ng kanilang ama; at ang mukha nila ay patalikod, at hindi nila nakita ang kahubaran ng kanilang ama.
Then Shem and Japheth took a large cloth and placed it across their backs, and walked backwards into the tent. They covered their father’s naked body with the cloth. Their faces were turned away from their father, so they did not see him naked.
24 At nagising si Noe sa kaniyang pagkalango sa alak, at naalaman ang ginawa sa kaniya ng kaniyang bunsong anak.
When Noah woke up [and was sober again], he found out how wrongfully Ham, his youngest son, had behaved toward him.
25 At sinabi, Sumpain si Canaan! Siya'y magiging alipin ng mga alipin sa kaniyang mga kapatid.
He said, “I am cursing Ham’s youngest son, Canaan, and his descendants. They will be like slaves to their uncles.
26 At sinabi niya, Purihin ang Panginoon, ang Dios ni Sem! At si Canaan ay maging alipin niya.
I will ask God to enlarge the territory that belongs to Japheth, and allow his descendants to live peacefully among the descendants of Shem [MTY].
27 Pakapalin ng Dios si Japhet. At matira siya sa mga tolda ni Sem; At si Canaan ay maging alipin niya.
And I desire that Canaan’s descendants will be like slaves of Japheth’s descendants.”
28 At nabuhay si Noe pagkaraan ng bahang gumunaw, ng tatlong daan at limang pung taon.
Noah lived 350 more years after the flood.
29 At ang lahat ng naging araw ni Noe ay siyam na raan at limang pung taon: at namatay.
He died when he was 950 years old.
