Genesis 9
Magandang Balita Biblia
Nakipagtipan ang Diyos kay Noe
9 Si(A) Noe at ang kanyang mga anak ay binasbasan ng Diyos: “Magkaroon kayo ng maraming anak at punuin ninyo ng inyong supling ang buong daigdig. 2 Matatakot sa inyo ang lahat ng hayop, pati mga ibon, ang lahat ng gumagapang sa lupa at ang mga isda. Ang lahat ng ito ay inilalagay ko sa ilalim ng inyong kapangyarihan. 3 Gaya ng mga halamang luntian na inyong kinakain, lahat ng mga ito'y maaari na ninyong kainin. 4 Huwag(B) lamang ninyong kakainin ang karneng hindi inalisan ng dugo sapagkat nasa dugo ang buhay. 5 Mananagot ang sinumang papatay sa inyo, maging ito'y isang hayop. Pagbabayarin ko ang sinumang taong papatay ng kanyang kapwa.
6 Sinumang(C) pumatay ng kanyang kapwa,
buhay ang kabayaran sa kanyang ginawa,
sapagkat sa larawan ng Diyos ang tao'y nilikha.
7 “Magkaroon(D) nga kayo ng maraming anak upang manirahan sila sa buong daigdig.”
8 Sinabi ng Diyos kay Noe at sa kanyang mga anak, 9 “Ako'y nakikipagtipan sa inyo ngayon, pati na sa inyong magiging mga anak, 10 gayon din sa lahat ng mga bagay na may buhay sa paligid ninyo—sa mga ibon, pati sa maaamo't maiilap na hayop na kasama ninyo sa barko. 11 Ito ang aking pakikipagtipan sa inyo: Kailanma'y hindi ko na lilipulin sa pamamagitan ng baha ang lahat ng may buhay. Wala nang baha na gugunaw sa daigdig.” 12 Sinabi pa ng Diyos, “Ito ang magiging palatandaan ng walang hanggang tipan na ginagawa ko sa inyo at sa lahat ng hayop: 13 Palilitawin ko sa mga ulap ang aking bahaghari, at iyan ang magiging tanda ng aking pakikipagtipan sa inyo. 14 Tuwing magkakaroon ng ulap at lilitaw ang bahaghari, 15 aalalahanin ko ang aking pangako sa inyo at sa lahat ng hayop. Hindi ko na lilipulin sa baha ang lahat ng may buhay. 16 Tuwing lilitaw ang bahaghari, maaalala ko ang walang hanggang tipan na ginawa ko sa inyo at sa lahat ng may buhay sa balat ng lupa.”
17 At sinabi ng Diyos kay Noe, “Ito ang tanda ng aking pangako sa lahat ng nabubuhay sa lupa.”
Si Noe at ang Kanyang mga Anak
18 Ang mga anak ni Noe na kasama niyang lumabas sa barko ay sina Shem, Jafet at Ham na ama ni Canaan. 19 Ang tatlong ito ang pinagmulan ng lahat ng tao sa daigdig.
20 Si Noe ay isang magsasaka at siya ang kauna-unahang nagbukid ng ubasan. 21 Minsan, uminom siya ng alak at nalasing. Nakatulog siyang hubad na hubad sa loob ng kanyang tolda. 22 Sa gayong ayos, nakita siya ni Ham ang ama ni Canaan at ibinalita ito sa kanyang mga kapatid. 23 Kaya't kumuha sina Shem at Jafet ng balabal, iniladlad sa likuran nila at magkatuwang na lumakad nang patalikod patungo sa tolda. Tinakpan nila ang katawan ng kanilang ama. Ayaw nilang makita ang kahubaran ng kanilang ama. 24 Nang mawala na ang kalasingan ni Noe, at malaman ang ginawa ng bunsong anak, 25 sinabi niya:
“O ikaw, Canaan, ngayo'y susumpain,
sa mga kapatid mo ika'y paaalipin.”
26 Sinabi rin niya,
“Purihin si Yahweh, ang Diyos ni Shem,
itong si Canaa'y maglilingkod kay Shem.
27 Palawakin nawa ng Diyos ang lupain ni Jafet.[a]
Sa lahi ni Shem, sila'y mapipisan,
at paglilingkuran si Jafet nitong si Canaan.”
28 Si Noe ay nabuhay pa nang 350 taon pagkatapos ng baha, 29 kaya't umabot siya sa gulang na 950 taon bago namatay.

Names of God Bible
God Blesses Noah and His Sons
9 Elohim blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “Be fertile, increase in number, and fill the earth. 2 All the wild animals and all the birds will fear you and be terrified of you. Every creature that crawls on the ground and all the fish in the sea have been put under your control. 3 Everything that lives and moves will be your food. I gave you green plants as food; I now give you everything else.
4 “But you are not to eat meat with blood in it. (Blood is life.) 5 In addition, I will demand your blood for your life. I will demand it from any animal or from any person. I will demand the life of any person who kills another person.
6 Whoever sheds human blood,
by humans his blood will be shed,
because in his image, Elohim made humans.
7 Be fertile, and increase in number. Spread over the earth, and increase.”
God’s Promise—The Sign of the Rainbow
8 Elohim also said to Noah and his sons, 9 “I am going to make my promise[a] to you, your descendants, 10 and every living being that is with you—birds, domestic animals, and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ship—every living thing on earth. 11 I am making my promise to you. Never again will all life be killed by floodwaters. Never again will there be a flood that destroys the earth.”
12 Elohim said, “This is the sign of the promise I am giving to you and every living being that is with you for generations to come. 13 I will put my rainbow in the clouds to be a sign of my promise to the earth. 14 Whenever I form clouds over the earth, a rainbow will appear in the clouds. 15 Then I will remember my promise to you and every living animal. Never again will water become a flood to destroy all life. 16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember my everlasting promise to every living animal on earth.”
17 So Elohim said to Noah, “This is the sign of the promise I am making to all life on earth.”
Noah Curses Canaan but Blesses Shem and Japheth
18 Noah’s sons, who came out of the ship, were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. 19 These were Noah’s three sons. From them the whole earth was populated. Ham was the father of Canaan.[b]
20 Noah, a farmer, was the first person to plant a vineyard. 21 He drank some wine, got drunk, and lay naked inside his tent. 22 Ham, father of Canaan, saw his father naked. So he went outside and told his two brothers.
23 Shem and Japheth took a blanket and laid it over their shoulders. Then they walked in backwards and covered their father’s naked body. They turned their faces away so that they didn’t see their father naked.
24 When Noah sobered up, he found out what his youngest son had done to him. 25 So he said,
“Canaan is cursed!
He will be the lowest slave to his brothers.
26 Praise Yahweh, the Elohim of Shem!
Canaan will be his slave.
27 May Elohim expand the territory of Japheth.[c]
May he live in the tents of Shem.
Canaan will be his slave.”
28 Noah lived 350 years after the flood. 29 Noah lived a total of 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)
