Genesis 9
1 Ọlọ́run sì súre fún Noa àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ wí pé, “Ẹ máa bí sí i, kí ẹ sì pọ̀ ní iye, kí ẹ sì kún ayé.
And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.
2 Ẹ̀rù yín yóò mú ojo wà lára gbogbo ẹranko àti gbogbo ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run, àti gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀dá tí ń rìn nílẹ̀; àti gbogbo ẹja òkun; a fi wọ́n lé e yín lọ́wọ́.
The fear and dread of you will fall on every living creature on the earth, every bird of the air, every creature that crawls on the ground, and all the fish of the sea. They are delivered into your hand.
3 Gbogbo ohun tó wà láààyè tí ó sì ń rìn, ni yóò jẹ́ oúnjẹ fún un yín, bí mo ṣe fi ewéko fún un yín náà ni mo fi ohun gbogbo fún un yín.
Everything that lives and moves will be food for you; just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you all things.
4 “Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ ẹran tòun-tẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀.
But you must not eat meat with its lifeblood still in it.
5 Nítòótọ́ ẹ̀jẹ̀ yín, àní ẹ̀mí yín, ni èmi yóò sì béèrè; lọ́wọ́ gbogbo ẹranko ni èmí yóò béèrè rẹ̀, àti lọ́wọ́ ènìyàn, lọ́wọ́ arákùnrin olúkúlùkù ènìyàn ni èmi yóò béèrè ẹ̀mí ènìyàn.
And surely I will require the life of any man or beast by whose hand your lifeblood is shed. I will demand an accounting from anyone who takes the life of his fellow man:
6 “Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ ènìyàn sílẹ̀, láti ọwọ́ ènìyàn ni a ó gbà ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀. Nítorí ní àwòrán Ọlọ́run ni Ọlọ́run dá ènìyàn.
Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man his blood will be shed; for in His own image God has made mankind.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n ní tiyín, ẹ máa bí sí i, kí ẹ sì máa pọ̀ sí i, ẹ máa gbá yìn lórí ilẹ̀, kí ẹ sì pọ̀ sí i lórí rẹ̀.”
But as for you, be fruitful and multiply; spread out across the earth and multiply upon it.”
8 Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Noa àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé,
Then God said to Noah and his sons with him,
9 “Mo dá májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú yín àti pẹ̀lú àwọn ìran yín tí ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn.
“Behold, I now establish My covenant with you and your descendants after you,
10 Àti pẹ̀lú gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè tí ó wà pẹ̀lú yín, ìbá à ṣe ẹyẹ, ẹja, ẹran ọ̀sìn, ẹranko igbó, gbogbo ohun tí ó jáde kúrò nínú ọkọ̀ pẹ̀lú yín, àní gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè ní ayé.
and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock, and every beast of the earth—every living thing that came out of the ark.
11 Mo dá májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú yín láéláé, Èmi kì yóò fi ìkún omi pa ayé run kúrò mọ láéláé, a kì yóò fi omi pa ayé run.”
And I establish My covenant with you: Never again will all life be cut off by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth.”
12 Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Èyí ni àmì májẹ̀mú tí mo ń dá yìí láàrín èmi àti ẹ̀yin àti ẹ̀dá alààyè tí ó wà pẹ̀lú yín, májẹ̀mú àtìrandíran tó ń bọ̀:
And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between Me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come:
13 Mo ti fi òṣùmàrè sí àwọsánmọ̀, yóò sì jẹ́ àmì májẹ̀mú láàrín èmi àti ayé.
I have set My rainbow in the clouds, and it will be a sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.
14 Nígbàkígbà tí mo bá mú kí òjò ṣú, tí òṣùmàrè bá farahàn ní àwọsánmọ̀.
Whenever I form clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,
15 Èmi yóò rántí májẹ̀mú mi, tí ó wà láàrín èmi àti ẹ̀yin àti gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè, kì yóò sì tún sí ìkún omi mọ́ láti pa gbogbo ẹ̀dá run.
I will remember My covenant between Me and you and every living creature of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.
16 Nígbàkígbà tí òṣùmàrè bá yọ ní àwọsánmọ̀, èmi yóò rí i, èmi yóò sì rántí májẹ̀mú ayérayé tí ń bẹ láàrín Ọlọ́run àti gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè tí ń bẹ ní ayé.”
And whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of every kind that is on the earth.”
17 Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Noa pé, “Èyí ni àmì májẹ̀mú tí mo ti fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ láàrín èmi àti gbogbo alààyè ní ayé.”
So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between Me and every creature on the earth.”
18 Àwọn ọmọ Noa tí ó jáde nínú ọkọ̀ ni Ṣemu, Hamu àti Jafeti. (Hamu ni baba Kenaani.)
The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.
19 Láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ Noa mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta yìí ni gbogbo ènìyàn ti tàn ká gbogbo ilẹ̀ ayé.
These three were the sons of Noah, and from them the whole earth was populated.
20 Noa bẹ̀rẹ̀ iṣẹ́ àgbẹ̀, ó sì gbin ọgbà àjàrà.
Now Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard.
21 Ó mu àmupara nínú ọtí wáìnì àjàrà rẹ̀, ó sì tú ara rẹ̀ sí ìhòhò, ó sì sùn nínú àgọ́ rẹ̀.
But when he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and uncovered himself inside his tent.
22 Hamu tí í ṣe baba Kenaani sì rí baba rẹ̀ ní ìhòhò bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì lọ sọ fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ méjèèjì ní ìta.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father’s nakedness and told his two brothers outside.
23 Ṣùgbọ́n Ṣemu àti Jafeti mú aṣọ lé èjìká wọn, wọ́n sì fi ẹ̀yìn rìn, wọ́n sì bo ìhòhò baba wọn. Wọ́n kọjú sẹ́yìn kí wọn kí ó má ba à rí ìhòhò baba wọn.
Then Shem and Japheth took a garment and placed it across their shoulders, and walking backward, they covered their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned away so that they did not see their father’s nakedness.
24 Nígbà tí Noa kúrò ní ojú ọtí, tí ó sì mọ ohun tí ọmọ rẹ̀ kékeré ṣe sí i.
When Noah awoke from his drunkenness and learned what his youngest son had done to him,
25 Ó wí pé, “Ègún ni fún Kenaani. Ìránṣẹ́ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ni yóò máa ṣe fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀.”
he said, “Cursed be Canaan! A servant of servants shall he be to his brothers.”
26 Ó sì tún wí pé, “Olùbùkún ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Ṣemu Kenaani yóò máa ṣe ẹrú fún Ṣemu.
He also declared: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the servant of Shem.
27 Ọlọ́run yóò mú Jafeti gbilẹ̀, Jafeti yóò máa gbé ní àgọ́ Ṣemu Kenaani yóò sì jẹ́ ẹrú fún un.”
May God expand the territory of Japheth; may he dwell in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be his servant.”
28 Noa wà láààyè fún irinwó ọdún dín àádọ́ta lẹ́yìn ìkún omi.
After the flood, Noah lived 350 years.
29 Àpapọ̀ ọjọ́ ayé Noa jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún ọdún dín làádọ́ta, ó sì kú.
So Noah lived a total of 950 years, and then he died.
