< Genesis 9 >

1 And God blessed Noah and his sons. And he said to them: “Increase, and multiply, and fill the earth.
Bog je blagoslovil Noeta in njegove sinove ter jim rekel: »Bodite rodovitni in se množite ter na novo napolnite zemljo.
2 And let the fear and trembling of you be upon all the animals of the earth, and upon all the birds of the air, along with all that moves across the earth. All the fish of the sea have been delivered into your hand.
Strah pred vami in groza pred vami bo na vsaki zemeljski živali in na vsaki zračni perjadi, na vsem, kar se giba na zemlji in na vseh ribah morja; izročene so v vašo roko.
3 And everything that moves and lives will be food for you. Just as with the edible plants, I have delivered them all to you,
Vsaka gibajoča stvar, ki živi, naj bo hrana za vas; celó kakor zelena zelišča, sem vam izročil vse stvari.
4 except that flesh with blood you shall not eat.
Toda mesa z njegovim življenjem, ki je njegova kri, ne boste jedli.
5 For I will examine the blood of your lives at the hand of every beast. So also, at the hand of mankind, at the hand of each man and his brother, I will examine the life of mankind.
Zagotovo bom terjal vašo kri vaših življenj. Terjal jo bom iz roke vsake živali in iz človeške roke. Iz roke vsakega človekovega brata bom terjal človeško življenje.
6 Whoever will shed human blood, his blood will be poured out. For man was indeed made to the image of God.
Kdorkoli prelije človeško kri, bo po človeku prelita njegova kri, kajti človeka je naredil po Božji podobi.
7 But as for you: increase and multiply, and go forth upon the earth and fulfill it.”
Vi pa bodite rodovitni in se množite, na zemlji obilno obrodite in se množite na njej.«
8 To Noah and to his sons with him, God also said this:
Bog je spregovoril Noetu ter z njim njegovim sinovom, rekoč:
9 “Behold, I will establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
»Jaz, glejte, jaz vzpostavljam svojo zavezo z vami in z vašim zarodom za vami
10 and with every living soul that is with you: as much with the birds as with the cattle and all the animals of the earth that have gone forth from the ark, and with all the wild beasts of the earth.
in z vsakim živim ustvarjenim bitjem, ki je z vami, od perjadi, od živine in od vsake zemeljske živali z vami; od vsega, kar prihaja iz ladje, do vsake zemeljske živali.
11 I will establish my covenant with you, and no longer will all that is flesh be put to death by the waters of a great flood, and, henceforth, there will not be a great flood to utterly destroy the earth.”
In z vami bom vzpostavil svojo zavezo; niti vse meso ne bo več iztrebljeno s poplavnimi vodami niti ne bo več poplave, da uniči zemljo.«
12 And God said: “This is the sign of the pact that I grant between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations.
Bog je rekel: »To je simbol zaveze, ki jo sklepam med seboj in vami in vsakim živim ustvarjenim bitjem, ki je z vami, za neprestane rodove.
13 I will place my arc in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the pact between myself and the earth.
Svojo mavrico postavim v oblak in ta bo za simbol zaveze med menoj in zemljo.
14 And when I obscure the sky with clouds, my arc will appear in the clouds.
In zgodilo se bo, ko nad zemljo privedem oblak, da bo mavrica vidna v oblaku
15 And I will remember my covenant with you, and with every living soul that enlivens flesh. And there will no longer be waters from a great flood to wipe away all that is flesh.
in spomnil se bom svoje zaveze, ki je med menoj in vami in vsakim živim ustvarjenim bitjem od vsega mesa in vode ne bodo več postale poplava, da uničijo vse meso.
16 And the arc will be in the clouds, and I will see it, and I will remember the everlasting covenant that was enacted between God and every living soul of all that is flesh upon the earth.”
In v oblaku bo mavrica in pogledal bom nanjo, da se bom lahko spomnil večne zaveze med Bogom in vsakim živim ustvarjenim bitjem od vsega mesa, ki je na zemlji.«
17 And God said to Noah, “This will be the sign of the covenant that I have established between myself and all that is flesh upon the earth.”
Bog je rekel Noetu: »To je simbol zaveze, ki sem jo utrdil med seboj in vsem mesom, ki je na zemlji.«
18 And so the sons of Noah, who came out of the ark, were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Now Ham himself is the father of Canaan.
Noetovi sinovi, ki so se izkrcali iz ladje, so bili Sem, Ham in Jafet. Ham pa je Kánaanov oče.
19 These three are the sons of Noah. And from these all the family of mankind was spread over the whole earth.
To so trije Noetovi sinovi, in od njih je bila prekrita vsa zemlja.
20 And Noah, a good farmer, began to cultivate the land, and he planted a vineyard.
In Noe je začel biti poljedelec ter zasadil vinograd
21 And by drinking its wine, he became inebriated and was naked in his tent.
in pil od vina in se napil in bil je nag v svojem šotoru.
22 Because of this, when Ham, the father of Canaan, had indeed seen the privates of his father to be naked, he reported it to his two brothers outside.
Ham, Kánaanov oče, pa je videl nagoto svojega očeta in zunaj povedal svojima dvema bratoma.
23 And truly, Shem and Japheth put a cloak upon their arms, and, advancing backwards, covered the privates of their father. And their faces were turned away, so that they did not see their father’s manhood.
Sem in Jafet sta vzela obleko in si jo položila na obe njuni rami in šla, obrnjena nazaj in pokrila nagoto njunega očeta. In njuna obraza sta bila obrnjena nazaj in nista videla očetove nagote.
24 Then Noah, awaking from the wine, when he had learned what his younger son had done to him,
Noe se je prebudil iz svojega vina ter spoznal, kaj mu je storil njegov mlajši sin.
25 he said, “Cursed be Canaan, a servant of servants will he be to his brothers.”
Rekel je: »Preklet bodi, Kánaan. Svojim bratom bo služabnik služabnikov.«
26 And he said: “Blessed be the Lord God of Shem, let Canaan be his servant.
Rekel je: »Blagoslovljen bodi Semov Gospod Bog, Kánaan pa bo njegov služabnik.
27 May God enlarge Japheth, and may he live in the tents of Shem, and let Canaan be his servant.”
Bog bo povečal Jafeta in prebival bo v Semovih šotorih, Kánaan pa bo njegov služabnik.«
28 And after the great flood, Noah lived for three hundred and fifty years.
Noe je po poplavi živel tristo petdeset let.
29 And all his days were completed in nine hundred and fifty years, and then he died.
Vseh Noetovih dni je bilo devetsto petdeset let, in je umrl.
