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)

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.

Божият Завет с Ной
9 (A)В това време Бог благослови Ной и синовете му, като каза: Плодете се, размножавайте се и напълнете земята.
2 (B)От вас ще се страхуват и ще треперят всички земни животни и всички въздушни птици; те са всичко, което пълзи по земята, и всички морски риби са предадени в ръцете ви.
3 (C)Всичко живо, което се движи, ще ви бъде за храна; давам ви всичко, също както дадох зелената трева.
4 (D)Да не ядете обаче месо с живота му, т. е. с кръвта му.
5 (E)А вашата кръв, кръвта на живота ви, непременно ще изискам; от всяко животно ще я изискам; и от човека, да! От брата на всеки човек ще изискам живота на човека.
6 (F)Който пролее човешка кръв и неговата кръв от човек ще се пролее; защото Бог направи човека по Своя образ.
7 (G)А вие, плодете се и се размножавайте, разплодете се по земята и се умножавайте по нея.
8 После Бог говорѝ на Ной и на синовете му с него:
9 (H)Вижте, Аз поставям завета Си с вас и с потомството ви след вас;
10 (I)и с всичко живо, което е с вас – птиците, добитъка и всички земни животни, които са с вас, да, с всяко земно животно от всичко, което е излязло от ковчега.
11 Поставям завета Си с вас, – че няма да бъде изтребена вече никоя твар от водите на потопа, нито ще настане вече потоп да опустоши земята.
12 (J)Бог каза още: Ето белега на завета, който Аз поставям до всички поколения между Мен и вас и всичко живо, което е с вас;
13 поставям дъгата Си в облака и тя ще бъде белег на завет между Мен и земята.
14 Когато докарам облак на земята, дъгата ще се яви в облака;
15 (K)и ще си спомня завета Си, който е между Мен и вас и всичко живо от всяка твар; и водата няма вече да стане потоп за изтреблението на всяка твар.
16 (L)Дъгата ще бъде в облака; и ще я гледам, за да си напомням вечния завет между Бога и всичко живо от всяка твар, което е на земята.
17 Бог каза на Ной: Това е белегът на завета, който установих между Мен и всяка твар, която е на земята.
Синовете на Ной
18 (M)А излезлите от ковчега Ноеви синове бяха Сим, Хам и Яфет; а Хам беше баща на Ханаан.
19 (N)Тези трима бяха Ноеви синове; и от тях бе населена цялата земя.
20 (O)В това време Ной започна да работи земята и насади лозе.
21 (P)И като пи от виното, опи се и се разголи в шатрата си.
22 Хам, Ханаановият баща, видя голотата на баща си и каза на двамата си братя отвън.
23 (Q)А Сим и Яфет взеха една дреха и като я сложиха двамата на раменете си, пристъпиха заднишком и покриха голотата на баща си; лицата им гледаха назад и не видяха бащината си голота.
24 Когато Ной изтрезня от виното си и научи за онова, което му беше направил по-младият му син, каза:
25 (R)Проклет да е Ханаан;
слуга на слуги ще бъде на братята си.
26 (S)Каза още:
Благословен Господ, Симовият Бог;
и Ханаан да му бъде слуга.
27 (T)Бог да разшири Яфет.
Да се засели в шатрите на Сим;
и Ханаан да им бъде слуга.
28 След потопа Ной живя триста и петдесет години.
29 И всички дни на Ной станаха деветстотин и петдесет години; и умря.
