Genesis 9
Legacy Standard Bible
9 And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “(A)Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth. 2 And the fear of you and the terror of you will be on every beast of the earth and on every bird of the [a]sky; with everything that creeps on the ground, and all the fish of the sea, into your hand they are given. 3 Every moving thing that is alive shall be food for you; (B)as with the green plant, I give all to you. 4 However, flesh with its life, that is, (C)its blood, you shall not eat. 5 Surely I will require [b](D)your lifeblood; [c](E)from every living thing I will require it. And [d]from every man, [e]from each man’s brother I will require the life of man.
6 (F)Whoever sheds man’s blood,
By man his blood shall be shed,
For (G)in the image of God
He made man.
7 As for you, (H)be fruitful and multiply;
[f]Swarm on the earth and multiply in it.”
8 Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying, 9 “As for Me, behold, (I)I establish My covenant with you and with your seed after you; 10 and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you; of all that comes out of the ark, even every beast of the earth. 11 Indeed I establish My covenant with you; and all flesh shall (J)never again be cut off by the water of the flood, (K)and there shall never again be a flood to destroy the earth.” 12 Then God said, “This is (L)the sign of the covenant which I am giving to be between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for [g]all successive generations; 13 I put My (M)bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between Me and the earth. 14 And it will be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow will be seen in the cloud, 15 and (N)I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and (O)never again shall the water become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16 So the bow shall be in the cloud, and I will look upon it, to remember the (P)everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” 17 And God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.”
Noah’s Three Sons
18 Now the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem and Ham and Japheth; and (Q)Ham was the father of Canaan. 19 These three were the sons of Noah, and (R)from these the whole earth was scattered abroad.
20 Then Noah began to be [h]a man of the land and planted a vineyard. 21 And he drank of the wine and (S)became drunk and uncovered himself inside his tent. 22 Then Ham, the father of Canaan, (T)saw the nakedness of his father and told his two brothers outside. 23 But Shem and Japheth took the garment and laid it upon both their shoulders and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were turned backward, so that they did not see their father’s nakedness. 24 Then Noah awoke from his wine, and he knew what his youngest son had done to him. 25 So he said,
26 And he said,
“(W)Blessed be Yahweh,
The God of Shem;
And let Canaan be [j]his servant.
27 (X)May God enlarge Japheth,
And let him dwell in the tents of Shem;
And let Canaan be [k]his servant.”
28 And Noah lived 350 years after the flood. 29 So all the days of Noah were 950 years, and he died.

Pacto de Dios con Noé
9 Y Dios bendijo a Noé y a sus hijos, y les dijo: «Sean fecundos y multiplíquense, y llenen la tierra(A). 2 El temor y el terror de ustedes estarán sobre todos los animales de la tierra, sobre todas las aves del cielo, en todo lo que se arrastra sobre el suelo, y en todos los peces del mar. En su mano son todos entregados. 3 Todo lo que se mueve y tiene vida les será para alimento. Todo lo doy a ustedes como les di la hierba verde(B). 4 Pero carne con su vida, es decir, con su sangre(C), no comerán.
5 »De la sangre de ustedes, de la vida de ustedes(D), ciertamente pediré cuenta(E): a cualquier animal, y a cualquier hombre[a], pediré cuenta; de cada hombre pediré cuenta de la vida de un ser humano.
6 -»El que derrame sangre de hombre,
Por el hombre su sangre será derramada(F),
Porque a imagen de Dios
Hizo Él al hombre(G).
7 -»En cuanto a ustedes, sean fecundos y multiplíquense.
Pueblen en abundancia[b] la tierra y multiplíquense en ella(H)».
8 Entonces Dios habló a Noé y a sus hijos que estaban con él y les dijo: 9 «Miren, Yo establezco Mi pacto con ustedes(I), y con su descendencia[c] después de ustedes, 10 y con todo ser viviente que está con ustedes: aves, ganados y todos los animales de la tierra que están con ustedes, todos los que han salido del arca, todos los animales de la tierra. 11 Yo establezco Mi pacto con ustedes, y nunca más volverá a ser exterminada[d] toda carne[e](J) por las aguas del diluvio, ni habrá más diluvio para destruir la tierra(K)».
12 También dijo Dios: «Esta es la señal del pacto que Yo hago con ustedes y todo ser viviente(L) que está con ustedes, por todas las generaciones[f]: 13 Pongo Mi arco en las nubes[g](M) y será por señal de[h] Mi pacto con la tierra.
14 »Y acontecerá que cuando haga venir nubes[i] sobre la tierra, se verá el arco en las nubes[j], 15 y me acordaré de Mi pacto(N), con ustedes y con todo ser viviente de toda carne. Nunca más se convertirán las aguas en diluvio para destruir toda carne(O). 16 Cuando el arco esté en las nubes[k], lo miraré para acordarme del pacto eterno(P) entre Dios y todo ser viviente de toda carne que está sobre la tierra». 17 Y dijo Dios a Noé: «Esta es la señal del pacto que Yo he establecido con toda carne que está sobre la tierra».
Noé y sus hijos
18 Los hijos de Noé que salieron del arca fueron Sem, Cam y Jafet. Cam fue el padre de Canaán(Q). 19 Estos tres fueron los hijos de Noé, y de ellos se pobló[l] toda la tierra(R).
20 Noé comenzó a labrar la tierra[m], y plantó una viña. 21 Bebió el vino y se embriagó(S), y se desnudó en medio de su tienda. 22 Cam, padre de Canaán, vio la desnudez(T) de su padre y se lo contó a sus dos hermanos que estaban afuera. 23 Entonces Sem y Jafet tomaron un manto, lo pusieron sobre sus hombros, y caminando hacia atrás cubrieron la desnudez de su padre. Como sus rostros estaban vueltos, no vieron la desnudez de su padre.
24 Cuando Noé despertó de su embriaguez[n], y supo lo que su hijo menor le había hecho, 25 dijo:
26 Dijo también:
«Bendito sea el Señor(W),
El Dios de Sem;
Y sea Canaán su siervo.
27 -»Engrandezca Dios a Jafet(X),
Y habite en las tiendas de Sem;
Y sea Canaán su siervo».
28 Noé vivió 350 años después del diluvio. 29 El total de los días de Noé fue de 950 años, y murió.

King James Version
9 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.
6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.
8 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
10 And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.
11 And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
12 And 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 do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
17 And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
18 And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan.
19 These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.
20 And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.
24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
26 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
Genesis 9
New International Version
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)
