Génesis 9
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
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.

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.

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)
