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 he said to them: “Increase, 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.
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 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.
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 “Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ ẹran tòun-tẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀.
except that flesh with blood you shall not eat.
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.
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 “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 will shed human blood, his blood will be poured out. For man was indeed made to the image of God.
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: increase and multiply, and go forth upon the earth and fulfill it.”
8 Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Noa àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé,
To Noah and to his sons with him, God also said this:
9 “Mo dá májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú yín àti pẹ̀lú àwọn ìran yín tí ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn.
“Behold, I will establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring 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 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 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.”
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 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 pact that I grant between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations.
13 Mo ti fi òṣùmàrè sí àwọsánmọ̀, yóò sì jẹ́ àmì májẹ̀mú láàrín èmi àti ayé.
I will place my arc in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the pact between myself and the earth.
14 Nígbàkígbà tí mo bá mú kí òjò ṣú, tí òṣùmàrè bá farahàn ní àwọsánmọ̀.
And when I obscure the sky with clouds, my arc will appear 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.
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 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 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 Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Noa pé, “Èyí ni àmì májẹ̀mú tí mo ti fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ láàrín èmi àti gbogbo alààyè ní ayé.”
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 Àwọn ọmọ Noa tí ó jáde nínú ọkọ̀ ni Ṣemu, Hamu àti Jafeti. (Hamu ni baba Kenaani.)
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 Láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ Noa mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta yìí ni gbogbo ènìyàn ti tàn ká gbogbo ilẹ̀ ayé.
These three are the sons of Noah. And from these all the family of mankind was spread over the whole earth.
20 Noa bẹ̀rẹ̀ iṣẹ́ àgbẹ̀, ó sì gbin ọgbà àjàrà.
And Noah, a good farmer, began to cultivate the land, and he planted a vineyard.
21 Ó mu àmupara nínú ọtí wáìnì àjàrà rẹ̀, ó sì tú ara rẹ̀ sí ìhòhò, ó sì sùn nínú àgọ́ rẹ̀.
And by drinking its wine, he became inebriated and was naked in 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.
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 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.
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 Nígbà tí Noa kúrò ní ojú ọtí, tí ó sì mọ ohun tí ọmọ rẹ̀ kékeré ṣe sí i.
Then Noah, awaking from the wine, when he had learned what his younger 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 will he be to his brothers.”
26 Ó sì tún wí pé, “Olùbùkún ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Ṣemu Kenaani yóò máa ṣe ẹrú fún Ṣemu.
And he said: “Blessed be the Lord God of Shem, let Canaan be his servant.
27 Ọlọ́run yóò mú Jafeti gbilẹ̀, Jafeti yóò máa gbé ní àgọ́ Ṣemu Kenaani yóò sì jẹ́ ẹrú fún un.”
May God enlarge Japheth, and may he live in the tents of Shem, and let Canaan be his servant.”
28 Noa wà láààyè fún irinwó ọdún dín àádọ́ta lẹ́yìn ìkún omi.
And after the great flood, Noah lived for three hundred and fifty years.
29 Àpapọ̀ ọjọ́ ayé Noa jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún ọdún dín làádọ́ta, ó sì kú.
And all his days were completed in nine hundred and fifty years, and then he died.
