- Kapitel 9 -

1
And God blesses Noah and his sons, and says to them, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth;
2
and your fear and your dread is on every beast of the earth, and on every bird of the heavens, on all that creeps on the ground, and on all fishes of the seainto your hand they have been given.
3
Every creeping thing that is alive, to you it is for food; as the green herb I have given to you the whole;
4
only flesh in its lifeits bloodyou do not eat.
5
And only your blood for your lives do I require; from the hand of every living thing I require it, and from the hand of man, from the hand of every man’s brother I require the life of man;
6
whoever sheds man’s blood, by man is his blood shed: for in the image of God has He made man.
7
And you, be fruitful and multiply, teem in the earth, and multiply in it.”
8
And God speaks to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
9
And I, behold, I am establishing My covenant with you, and with your seed after you,
10
and with every living creature which [is] with you, among bird, among livestock, and among every beast of the earth with you, from all who are going out of the Arkto every beast of the earth.
11
And I have established My covenant with you, and all flesh is not cut off anymore by waters of a flood, and there is not a flood to destroy the earth anymore.”
12
And God says, “This is a token of the covenant which I am giving between Me and you, and every living creature that [is] with you, to continuous generations;
13
My bow I have given in the cloud, and it has been for a token of a covenant between Me and the earth;
14
and it has come to pass (in My sending a cloud over the earth) that the bow has been seen in the cloud,
15
and I have remembered My covenant which is between Me and you, and every living creature among all flesh, and the waters no longer become a flood to destroy all flesh;
16
and the bow has been in the cloud, and I have seen itto remember the perpetual covenant between God and every living creature among all flesh which [is] on the earth.”
17
And God says to Noah, “This [is] a token of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that [is] on the earth.”

Noah’s Shame and Canaan’s Curse

18
And the sons of Noah who are going out of the Ark are Shem, and Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is father of Canaan.
19
These three [are] sons of Noah, and from these has all the earth been overspread.
20
And Noah remains a man of the ground, and plants a vineyard,
21
and drinks of the wine, and is drunken, and uncovers himself in the midst of the tent.
22
And Ham, father of Canaan, sees the nakedness of his father, and declares to his two brothers outside.
23
And Shem takesJapheth also—the garment, and they place on the shoulder of them both, and go backward, and cover the nakedness of their father; and their faces [are] backward, and their father’s nakedness they have not seen.
24
And Noah awakens from his wine, and knows that which his young son has done to him,
25
and says: “Cursed [is] Canaan, || Servant of servants he is to his brothers.”

Shem’s Blessing and Noah’s Death

26
And he says: “Blessed of my God YHWH [is] Shem, || And Canaan is servant to him.
27
God gives beauty to Japheth, || And he dwells in tents of Shem, || And Canaan is servant to him.”
28
And Noah lives after the flood three hundred and fifty years;
29
and all the days of Noah are nine hundred and fifty years, and he dies.
1
God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the earth.
2
The fear of you and the dread of you will be on every animal of the earth, and on every bird of the sky. Everything that moves along the ground, and all the fish of the sea, are delivered into your hand.
3
Every moving thing that lives will be food for you. As I gave you the green herb, I have given everything to you.
4
But flesh with its life, that is, its blood, you shall not eat.
5
I will surely require accounting for your life’s blood. At the hand of every animal I will require it. At the hand of man, even at the hand of every man’s brother, I will require the life of man.
6
Whoever sheds man’s blood, his blood will be shed by man, for God made man in his own image.
7
Be fruitful and multiply. Increase abundantly in the earth, and multiply in it.”
8
God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
9
As for me, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
10
and with every living creature that is with you: the birds, the livestock, and every animal of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ship, even every animal of the earth.
11
I will establish my covenant with you: All flesh will not be cut off any more by the waters of the flood. There will never again be a flood to destroy the earth.”
12
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
I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be a sign of a covenant between me and the earth.
14
When I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,
15
I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters will no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
16
The rainbow will be in the cloud. I will look at it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”
17
God said to Noah, “This is the token of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.”

Noah’s Shame and Canaan’s Curse

18
The sons of Noah who went out from the ship were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham is the father of Canaan.
19
These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.
20
Noah began to be a farmer, and planted a vineyard.
21
He drank of the wine and got drunk. He was uncovered within his tent.
22
Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
23
Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it on both their shoulders, went in backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were backwards, and they didn’t see their father’s nakedness.
24
Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him.
25
He said,Canaan is cursed. He will be a servant of servants to his brothers.”

Shem’s Blessing and Noah’s Death

26
He said,Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.
27
May God enlarge Japheth. Let him dwell in the tents of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.”
28
Noah lived three hundred fifty years after the flood.
29
All the days of Noah were nine hundred fifty years, and then he died.
