Genesis 9
Het Boek
Gods eeuwige belofte aan Noach
9 God zegende Noach en zijn zonen en zei hun dat zij veel kinderen zouden voortbrengen, zodat de aarde weer werd bevolkt.
2,3 ‘Alle wilde dieren, de vogels en de vissen zullen bang voor u zijn,’ vertelde God Noach, ‘want Ik heb ze in uw macht gegeven. Voortaan zullen zij een deel van uw voedsel zijn, net zoals het koren en de groenten. 4 Maar één ding mag u nooit doen: vlees eten waar het bloed nog in zit, want het bloed bevat de levenskracht. 5 En ook moord is verboden. Dieren die mensen doden, moeten worden gedood, net zoals mensen die het bloed van andere mensen vergieten. 6 Want als u het bloed van een mens vergiet, zal uw bloed door mensen vergoten worden, want God heeft de mens als zijn evenbeeld gemaakt. 7 Ja, zorg dat u veel kinderen krijgt en bevolk de aarde.’
8 Toen zei God tegen Noach en zijn zonen: 9-11 ‘Met u sluit Ik een verbond en met uw kinderen en met alle dieren die bij u in het schip waren—de vogels, het vee en de wilde dieren: Ik beloof dat Ik de aarde nooit meer zal verwoesten met een grote watervloed. 12,13 Als teken van dat verbond tussen Mij en alle levende wezens die na u op aarde zullen wonen, plaats Ik de regenboog in de wolken. 14,15 Als Ik de wolken langs de hemel laat glijden, zal de regenboog verschijnen en Mij aan mijn belofte herinneren: nooit meer een watervloed die alle leven vernietigt. 16,17 Als de regenboog aan de hemel staat, zal Ik hem zien en denken aan het eeuwigdurende verbond tussen Mij en alle levende wezens op aarde.’
18 De drie zonen van Noach heetten Sem, Cham en Jafet (Cham is de voorvader van de Kanaänieten). 19 Uit deze drie zonen van Noach zijn alle volken op aarde ontstaan.
20,21 Noach werd boer, plantte een wijngaard en maakte wijn. Op een dag was hij dronken en lag naakt in zijn tent. 22 Cham, de voorvader van de Kanaänieten, bemerkte dat en vertelde het zijn broers. 23 Toen zij dat hoorden, pakten Sem en Jafet een mantel, liepen achteruit hun vaders tent in en bedekten zijn naakte lichaam met de mantel. Zij keken de andere kant op terwijl zij dat deden.
24,25 Toen Noach uit zijn roes ontwaakte en hoorde wat er was gebeurd en wat Cham had verteld, vervloekte hij alle nakomelingen van Cham: ‘Er zal voortaan een vloek op de Kanaänieten rusten, zij zullen de slaven zijn van de nakomelingen van Sem en Jafet!’ 26,27 Hij vervolgde: ‘Gezegend zij de Here, de God van Sem. De Kanaänieten zullen de slaven van Sem zijn. God zegent Jafet en laat hem bij zijn broer Sem inwonen. De Kanaänieten zullen ook zijn slaven zijn.’ 28 Na de grote watervloed leefde Noach nog driehonderdvijftig jaar. 29 Hij werd negenhonderdvijftig jaar oud en toen stierf hij.

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.

New King James Version
God’s Promise to Noah
9 So God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them: (A)“Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth. 2 (B)And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be on every beast of the earth, on every bird of the air, on all that move on the earth, and on all the fish of the sea. They are given into your hand. 3 (C)Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have given you (D)all things, even as the (E)green herbs. 4 (F)But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. 5 Surely for your lifeblood I will demand a reckoning; (G)from the hand of every beast I will require it, and (H)from the hand of man. From the hand of every (I)man’s brother I will require the life of man.
6 “Whoever (J)sheds man’s blood,
By man his blood shall be shed;
(K)For in the image of God
He made man.
7 And as for you, (L)be fruitful and multiply;
Bring forth abundantly in the earth
And multiply in it.”
8 Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying: 9 “And as for Me, (M)behold, I establish (N)My covenant with you and with your [a]descendants after you, 10 (O)and with every living creature that is with you: the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ark, every beast of the earth. 11 Thus (P)I establish My covenant with you: Never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood; never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth.”
12 And God said: (Q)“This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: 13 I set (R)My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. 14 It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; 15 and (S)I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16 The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember (T)the 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 and His Sons
18 Now the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (U)And Ham was the father of Canaan. 19 (V)These three were the sons of Noah, (W)and from these the whole earth was populated.
20 And Noah began to be (X)a farmer, and he planted a vineyard. 21 Then he drank of the wine (Y)and was drunk, and became uncovered in his tent. 22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. 23 (Z)But Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and went backward and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were [b]turned away, and they did not see their father’s nakedness.
24 So Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done to him. 25 Then he said:
26 And he said:
(AC)“Blessed be the Lord,
The God of Shem,
And may Canaan be his servant.
27 May God (AD)enlarge Japheth,
(AE)And may he dwell in the tents of Shem;
And may Canaan be his servant.”
28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years. 29 So all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.

Pacto de Dios con Noé
9 Y bendijo Dios a Noé y a sus hijos, y les dijo: Sed fecundos y multiplicaos, y llenad la tierra(A). 2 Y el temor y el terror de vosotros estarán sobre todos los animales de la tierra, y sobre todas las aves del cielo, y en todo lo que se arrastra sobre el suelo, y en todos los peces del mar; en vuestra mano son entregados. 3 Todo lo que se mueve y tiene vida os será para alimento: todo os lo doy como os di la hierba verde(B). 4 Pero carne con su vida, es decir, con su sangre(C), no comeréis. 5 Y ciertamente pediré cuenta de la sangre de vuestras vidas(D); de[a] todo animal la demandaré(E). Y de[b] todo hombre, del[c] hermano de todo hombre demandaré la vida del hombre.
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 vosotros, sed fecundos y multiplicaos;
poblad en abundancia[d] la tierra y multiplicaos en ella(H).
8 Entonces habló Dios a Noé y a sus hijos que estaban con él, diciendo: 9 He aquí, yo establezco mi pacto con vosotros(I), y con vuestra descendencia[e] después de vosotros, 10 y con todo ser viviente que está con vosotros: aves, ganados y todos los animales de la tierra que están con vosotros; todos los que han salido del arca, todos los animales de la tierra. 11 Yo establezco mi pacto con vosotros, y nunca más volverá a ser exterminada[f] toda carne(J) por las aguas del diluvio, ni habrá más diluvio para destruir la tierra(K). 12 Y dijo Dios: Esta es la señal del pacto que hago entre yo y vosotros y todo ser viviente(L) que está con vosotros, por todas las generaciones[g]: 13 pongo mi arco en las nubes[h](M) y será por señal del[i] pacto entre yo y la tierra. 14 Y acontecerá que cuando haga venir nubes[j] sobre la tierra, se verá el arco en las nubes[k], 15 y me acordaré de mi pacto(N) que hay entre yo y vosotros y entre todo ser viviente de toda carne; y nunca más se convertirán las aguas en diluvio para destruir toda carne(O). 16 Cuando el arco esté en las nubes[l], 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 he establecido entre yo y toda carne que está sobre la tierra.
Noé y sus hijos
18 Y los hijos de Noé que salieron del arca fueron Sem, Cam y Jafet; y Cam fue el padre de Canaán(Q). 19 Estos tres fueron los hijos de Noé, y de ellos se pobló[m] toda la tierra(R).
20 Entonces Noé comenzó a labrar la tierra[n], y plantó una viña. 21 Y bebió el vino y se embriagó(S), y se desnudó en medio de su tienda. 22 Y Cam, padre[o] 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; y sus rostros estaban vueltos, y no vieron la desnudez de su padre. 24 Cuando Noé despertó de su embriaguez[p], 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 Y vivió Noé trescientos cincuenta años después del diluvio. 29 El total de los días de Noé fue de novecientos cincuenta años, y murió.
