Ang Kasabotan sa Dios ug ni Noe

Unya, gipanalanginan sa Dios si Noe ug ang iyang mga anak ug giingnan, “Panganak kamo aron mosanay ug malukop ang tibuok kalibotan. Mahadlok kaninyo ang tanang mga mananap: ang nagalakaw, ang nagalupad, ang nagakamang, ug ang nagapuyo sa tubig. Gitugyan ko sila kaninyo. Gihatag ko kaninyo ang mga mananap ingon nga inyong pagkaon, maingon nga gihatag ko kaninyo ang lunhawng mga tanom ingon nga pagkaon. Apan ayaw gayod ninyo kan-a ang karne sa mananap nga wala nakagawas ang dugo, tungod kay ang dugo simbolo sa kinabuhi. Paninglan ko gayod si bisan kinsa nga mopatay kaninyo, tawo man o mananap. Paninglan ko si bisan kinsa nga mopatay sa iyang isigka-tawo. Si bisan kinsa nga mopatay sa iyang isigka-tawo kinahanglan patyon usab sa iyang isigka-tawo. Kay ang tawo gibuhat sa Dios nga sama kaniya. Panganak kamo aron mosanay ug malukop ninyo ang tibuok kalibotan.”

Miingon pa gayod ang Dios kang Noe ug sa iyang mga anak, 9-11 “Mao kini ang akong kasabotan kaninyo ug sa inyong mga kaliwat, ingon man sa tanang mga mananap nga migawas uban kaninyo gikan sa arka: Dili ko na gayod laglagon pag-usab ang tanang mga buhing binuhat pinaagi sa lunop. Ug wala na gayoy lunop nga mahitabo aron sa paglaglag sa kalibotan. 12-13 Ug ingon nga ilhanan sa akong kasabotan kaninyo ug sa tanang matang sa mga mananap, ug sa tanan ninyong umaabot nga mga kaliwat, ibutang ko ang akong bangaw sa mga panganod. 14 Kon padag-omon ko ug magpakita ang bangaw diha sa kalangitan, 15 hinumdoman ko dayon ang akong kasabotan kaninyo ug sa tanang matang sa mga mananap, nga dili na gayod mahitabo pag-usab ang lunop nga molaglag sa tanang buhing binuhat. 16 Kon magpakita ang bangaw diha sa mga panganod, hinumdoman ko dayon ang akong walay kataposan nga kasabotan sa tanan nga may kinabuhi sa kalibotan. 17 Ang bangaw mao ang ilhanan sa akong kasabotan sa tanan nga nagakinabuhi sa kalibotan.”

Ang mga Anak ni Noe

18 Mao kini ang mga anak ni Noe nga kauban niya sa arka: si Shem, si Ham, ug si Jafet. (Si Ham mao ang amahan ni Canaan.) 19 Kanila naggikan ang tanang mga tawo sa kalibotan.

20 Si Noe usa ka mag-uuma ug siya mao ang una nga nagatanom ug ubas. 21 Usa ka higayon niana, miinom siya ug bino, nahubog, ug natulog nga hubo sulod sa iyang tolda. 22 Unya, si Ham nga amahan ni Canaan misulod sa tolda, ug nakita niya nga hubo ang iyang amahan. Busa migawas siya ug gisuginlan niya ang duha niya ka igsoon. 23 Mikuha si Shem ug si Jafet ug panapton ug gibutang nila kini sa ilang abaga, unya milakaw sila nga paatras pasulod sa tolda ug gitabonan nila ang ilang amahan. Wala sila milingi ug wala nila makita ang pagkahubo sa ilang amahan. 24 Sa dihang nahuwasan na si Noe sa iyang kahubog, ug sa pagkahibalo niya sa gibuhat sa iyang kamanghoran nga anak, 25 miingon siya,

“Tinunglo ka Canaan! Mahimo kang labing ubos nga ulipon sa imong mga igsoon.”

26 Ug miingon usab siya,

“Dalaygon ang Ginoo, ang Dios ni Shem.
Hinaut pa nga mahimong ulipon ni Shem si Canaan.
27 Hinaut nga padaghanon sa Dios ang kayutaan ni Jafet,
ug mahimong maayo ang panag-uban sa iyang mga kaliwat ug sa mga kaliwat ni Shem.
Hinaut nga mahimo usab niyang ulipon si Canaan.”

28 Nabuhi pa ug laing 350 ka tuig si Noe human sa lunop. 29 Namatay siya sa edad nga 950.

And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.

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.

Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.

But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.

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.

Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.

And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.

And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,

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.

God’s Promise to Noah

So God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them: (A)“Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth. (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. (C)Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have given you (D)all things, even as the (E)green herbs. (F)But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. 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.

“Whoever (J)sheds man’s blood,
By man his blood shall be shed;
(K)For in the image of God
He made man.
And as for you, (L)be fruitful and multiply;
Bring forth abundantly in the earth
And multiply in it.”

Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying: “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:

(AA)“Cursed be Canaan;
A (AB)servant of servants
He shall be to his brethren.”

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.

And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, (A)“Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth. (B)The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth and upon every bird of the heavens, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea. Into your hand they are delivered. (C)Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And (D)as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything. But you shall not eat flesh with its (E)life, that is, its blood. And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: (F)from every beast I will require it and (G)from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man.

(H)“Whoever sheds the blood of man,
    by man shall his blood be shed,
(I)for God made man in his own image.

And you,[a] be fruitful and multiply, increase greatly on the earth and multiply in it.”

Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him, “Behold, (J)I establish my covenant with you and your offspring after you, 10 and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the livestock, and every beast of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark; it is for every beast of the earth. 11 (K)I establish my covenant with you, that never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood, and never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth.” 12 And God said, (L)“This is the sign of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations: 13 I have set (M)my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds, 15 (N)I will remember my covenant that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. And the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16 When the bow is in the clouds, I will see it and remember (O)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 sign of the covenant that I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.”

Noah's Descendants

18 The sons of Noah who went forth from the ark were (P)Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.) 19 These three were the sons of Noah, and (Q)from these the people of the whole earth were dispersed.[b]

20 Noah began to be a man of the soil, and he planted a vineyard.[c] 21 He drank of the wine and became drunk and lay uncovered in his tent. 22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father and told his two brothers outside. 23 Then Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned backward, and they did not see their father's nakedness. 24 When Noah awoke from his wine (R)and knew what his youngest son had done to him, 25 he said,

(S)“Cursed be Canaan;
    (T)a servant of servants shall he be to his brothers.”

26 He also said,

“Blessed be the Lord, the God of Shem;
    and let Canaan be his servant.
27 May God enlarge Japheth,[d]
    and let him dwell in the tents of Shem,
    and let Canaan be his servant.”

28 After the flood Noah lived 350 years. 29 All the days of Noah were 950 years, and he died.
