创世记 9
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
上帝与挪亚立约
9 上帝赐福给挪亚和他的儿子们，对他们说：“你们要生养众多，遍布地面。 2 你们要管理所有地上的走兽、空中的飞鸟、地上的爬虫和海里的鱼，它们都必惧怕你们。 3 凡是活着的动物都可作你们的食物，就像菜蔬和谷物一样。 4 只是你们不可吃带血的肉，因为血就是生命。 5 凡是杀人害命的，无论人或兽，我必向他们追讨血债。凡杀人的，我必追讨他的血债。 6 凡杀害人的，也必被人杀害，因为人是上帝照着自己的形象造的。 7 你们要生养众多，使地上人口兴旺。”
8 上帝又对挪亚和他的儿子们说： 9 “我要跟你们和你们的后代， 10 以及所有和你们在一起、从方舟出来的飞禽走兽和牲畜等各种动物立约。 11 我与你们立约，不再叫洪水淹没一切生灵，也不再让洪水毁灭大地。” 12 上帝说：“我与你们及各种生灵立世代永存的约，我要给这个约一个记号。 13 我把彩虹放在云中，作为我跟大地立约的记号。 14 我使云彩覆盖大地的时候，会有彩虹在云中出现。 15 这样我会记得我与你们及一切生灵所立的约，水就不会再泛滥淹灭所有生灵。 16 当我看见彩虹在云中出现的时候，就会记得我与地上一切生灵立的永约。” 17 上帝对挪亚说：“彩虹是我与地上一切生灵立约的记号。”
挪亚和他的儿子
18 与挪亚一起出方舟的有他的儿子闪、含、雅弗。含是迦南的父亲。 19 挪亚这三个儿子的后代遍布天下。
20 挪亚做了农夫，他是第一个栽种葡萄园的人。 21 一天，他喝葡萄酒喝醉了，赤裸着身体躺在帐篷里。 22 迦南的父亲含看见他父亲赤身露体，便去告诉外面的两个弟兄。 23 于是，闪和雅弗拿了一件衣服搭在肩上，倒退着走进帐篷，把衣服盖在父亲身上，他们背着脸不看父亲赤裸的身体。
24 挪亚酒醒后，知道了小儿子做的事， 25 就说：
“迦南该受咒诅，
必做他弟兄的仆人的仆人。”
26 又说：
“闪的上帝耶和华当受称颂！
迦南要做闪的仆人。
27 愿上帝扩张雅弗的疆界，
愿他住在闪的帐篷里，
让迦南做他的仆人。”
28 洪水以后，挪亚又活了三百五十年。 29 挪亚一生共活了九百五十岁。

The Covenant with Noah
9 God blessed Noah and his sons and ordered them, “Be productive, multiply, and fill the earth. 2 All the living creatures of the earth will be filled with fear and terror of you from now on, including all the creatures that fly in the sky, everything that crawls on the ground, and all the fish of the ocean. They’ve been assigned to live under your dominion.[a]
3 “Every living, moving creature will be food for you. Just as I gave you green plants before, so now you have everything. 4 However, you are not to eat meat with its life—that is, its blood—in it! 5 Also, I will certainly demand an accounting regarding bloodshed, from every animal and from every human being. I’ll demand an accounting from every human being for the life of another human being.
6 “Whoever sheds human blood,
by a human his own blood is to be shed;
because God made human beings
in his own image.
7 Now as for you, be productive
and multiply;
spread out over the land
and multiply throughout it.”
8 Later, God told Noah and his sons, 9 “Pay attention! I’m establishing my covenant with you and with your descendants after you, 10 and with every living creature that is with you—the flying creatures, the livestock, and all the wildlife of the earth that are with you—all the earth’s animals that came out of the ark. 11 I will establish my covenant with you: No living beings will ever be cut off again by flood waters, and there will never again be a flood that destroys the earth.”
The Sign of God’s Covenant
12 God also said, “Here’s the symbol that represents the covenant that I’m making between me and you and every living being with you, for all future generations: 13 I’ve set my rainbow in the sky[b] to symbolize the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow becomes visible in the clouds, 15 I’ll remember my covenant between me and you and every living creature, so that water will never again become a flood to destroy all living beings. 16 When the rainbow is in the clouds, I will observe it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living beings on the earth.”
17 God also told Noah, “This is the symbol of the covenant that I’ve established between me and everything[c] that lives on the earth.”
Noah and His Family
18 Noah’s sons who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Ham later fathered Canaan.) 19 These three were Noah’s sons, and from these men the whole earth was repopulated.
20 Noah, a man of the soil, was the first to plant and farm a vineyard. 21 He drank some of the wine, got drunk, and lay down naked[d] right in the middle of his tent. 22 Ham, who fathered Canaan, saw his father’s genitals and told his two brothers outside. 23 Then Shem and Japheth took their father’s[e] cloak, laid it across both their shoulders, and walking backwards, they both covered their father’s genitals. Their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father’s genitals. 24 When Noah sobered up and learned what his youngest son had done to him, 25 he said,
“Canaan is cursed!
He will be the lowest of slaves to his relatives.”
26 He also said,
“Blessed be the Lord God of Shem,
and may Canaan be his slave.
27 May God make room for[f] Japheth;
may God[g] live in Shem’s tents,
and may Canaan serve him.”
28 Noah lived 350 years after the flood. 29 After Noah had lived a total of 950 years, he died.

God’s Covenant with Noah
9 God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.(A) 2 The fear and terror of you will be in every living creature on the earth, every bird of the sky, every creature that crawls on the ground, and all the fish of the sea. They are placed under your authority. 3 Every creature that lives and moves will be food for you;(B) as I gave the green plants, I have given you everything.(C) 4 However, you must not eat meat with its lifeblood in it.(D) 5 And I will require a penalty for your lifeblood;[a] I will require it from any animal(E) and from any human; if someone murders a fellow human, I will require that person’s life.(F)
6 Whoever sheds human blood,
by humans his blood will be shed,(G)
for God made humans in his image.(H)
7 But you, be fruitful and multiply; spread out over the earth and multiply on it.’(I)
8 Then God said to Noah and his sons with him, 9 ‘Understand that I am establishing my covenant(J) with you and your descendants after you, 10 and with every living creature that is with you – birds, livestock, and all wildlife of the earth that are with you – all the animals of the earth that came out of the ark. 11 I establish my covenant with you that never again will every creature be wiped out by floodwaters; there will never again be a flood to destroy the earth.’(K)
12 And God said, ‘This is the sign of the covenant(L) I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all future generations: 13 I have placed my bow in the clouds,(M) and it will be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I form clouds over the earth and the bow appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant(N) between me and you and all the living creatures: water will never again become a flood to destroy every creature. 16 The bow will be in the clouds, and I will look at it and remember the permanent covenant(O) between God and all the living creatures on earth.’ 17 God said to Noah, ‘This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between me and every creature on earth.’
Prophecies about Noah’s Family
18 Noah’s sons who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham was the father of Canaan. 19 These three were Noah’s sons, and from them the whole earth was populated.(P)
20 Noah, as a man of the soil, began by planting[b] a vineyard. 21 He drank some of the wine, became drunk, and uncovered himself inside his tent. 22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked and told his two brothers outside.(Q) 23 Then Shem and Japheth took a cloak and placed it over both their shoulders, and walking backwards, they covered their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father naked.
24 When Noah awoke from his drinking and learned what his youngest son had done to him, 25 he said:
26 He also said:
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Shem;
Let Canaan be[c] Shem’s slave.
27 Let God extend Japheth;[d]
let Japheth dwell in the tents of Shem;
let Canaan be Shem’s slave.
28 Now Noah lived for 350 years after the flood. 29 So Noah’s life lasted for 950 years; then he died.

God’s Covenant With Noah
9 Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth.(A) 2 The fear and dread of you will fall on all the beasts of the earth, and on all the birds in the sky, on every creature that moves along the ground, and on all the fish in the sea; they are given into your hands.(B) 3 Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you.(C) Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.(D)
4 “But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it.(E) 5 And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting.(F) I will demand an accounting from every animal.(G) And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being.(H)
6 “Whoever sheds human blood,
by humans shall their blood be shed;(I)
for in the image of God(J)
has God made mankind.
7 As for you, be fruitful and increase in number; multiply on the earth and increase upon it.”(K)
8 Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him: 9 “I now establish my covenant with you(L) and with your descendants after you 10 and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature on earth. 11 I establish my covenant(M) with you:(N) Never again will all life be destroyed by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth.(O)”
12 And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant(P) I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come:(Q) 13 I have set my rainbow(R) in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow(S) appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant(T) between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.(U) 16 Whenever the rainbow(V) appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant(W) between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”
17 So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant(X) I have established between me and all life on the earth.”
The Sons of Noah
18 The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth.(Y) (Ham was the father of Canaan.)(Z) 19 These were the three sons of Noah,(AA) and from them came the people who were scattered over the whole earth.(AB)
20 Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded[a] to plant a vineyard. 21 When he drank some of its wine,(AC) he became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent. 22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked(AD) and told his two brothers outside. 23 But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it across their shoulders; then they walked in backward and covered their father’s naked body. Their faces were turned the other way so that they would not see their father naked.
24 When Noah awoke from his wine and found out what his youngest son had done to him, 25 he said,
26 He also said,
“Praise be to the Lord, the God of Shem!(AH)
May Canaan be the slave(AI) of Shem.
27 May God extend Japheth’s[b] territory;(AJ)
may Japheth live in the tents of Shem,(AK)
and may Canaan be the slave of Japheth.”
28 After the flood Noah lived 350 years. 29 Noah lived a total of 950 years, and then he died.(AL)
