< Genesisy 9 >

1 Ary Andriamanitra nitso-drano an’ i Noa sy ny zanany hoe; Maroa fara sy mihabetsaha ary mamenoa ny tany.
God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth.
2 Ary ny tahotra sy horohoro anareo hahazo ny bibi-dia rehetra sy ny voro-manidina rehetra; ireny mbamin’ izay rehetra mandady na mikisaka amin’ ny tany sy ny hazandrano rehetra ao amin’ ny ranomasina dia efa natolotra eo an-tananareo.
And the fear of you and the dread of you will be on every wild animal of the earth, and on every tame animal of the earth, and on every flying creature of the sky, and on everything that crawls on the ground, and on all the fish of the sea; into your power they are given.
3 Ny biby mihetsiketsika rehetra izay miaina dia ho fihinana ho anareo; dia efa nomeko anareo toy ny zava-maitso izy rehetra.
Every moving thing that lives will be food for you. As I gave the green plants, I now give you everything.
4 Kanefa ny nofo izay mbola misy aina dia ny ràny no aza haninareo.
But flesh with its life, its blood, you shall not eat.
5 Fa ny ranareo kosa dia hadiniko, satria ainareo izany; eo amin’ ny tanan’ ny manan’ aina rehetra no hanadinako azy; ary eo amin’ ny tanan’ ny olona, dia eo amin’ ny tanan’ ny olona avy, no hanadinako ny ain’ ny olona.
And surely I will require a reckoning for your lifeblood; from every animal I will require it, and from humans. From every human being I will require it for the life of his fellow human being.
6 Izay mandatsaka ny ran’ olona, dia mba halatsak’ olona kosa ny ràny, satria tahaka ny endrik’ Andriamanitra no nanaovany ny olona.
Whoever takes a human life, by a human will his life be taken, for God made humankind in his own image.
7 Koa ny aminareo, dia maroa fara sy mihabetsaha; miteraha be eny ambonin’ ny tany sy mihabetsaha eny.
And as for you, be fruitful and multiply, and increase abundantly on the earth, and subdue it."
8 Ary Andriamanitra niteny tamin’ i Noa sy tamin’ ny zanany, izay niaraka taminy, ka nanao hoe:
God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
9 Indro, Izaho efa manorina ny fanekeko aminareo sy amin’ ny taranakareo mandimby anareo
"And as for me, look, I establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you,
10 sy amin’ ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra eo aminareo, na ny vorona, na ny biby fiompy, na ny bibi-dia rehetra eo aminareo: izay rehetra nivoaka avy tao anatin’ ny sambo-fiara, dia ny biby samy hafa rehetra.
and with every living creature that is with you: the flying creatures, and the tame animals, and every wild animal of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ship.
11 Dia aoriko ny fanekeko aminareo, ka tsy haringako amin’ ny safo-drano intsony ny nofo rehetra, ary tsy hisy safo-drano hanimba ny tany intsony.
I will establish my covenant with you; and all flesh will never again be cut off by the waters of the flood, neither will there ever again be a flood to destroy the earth."
12 Ary hoy Andriamanitra: Izao no famantarana ny fanekena izay ataoko ho amiko sy ho aminareo mbamin’ ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra eo aminareo hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby:
God said, "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 Ny avako efa napetrako eo amin’ ny rahona ho famantarana ny fanekena ho amiko sy ho amin’ ny tany.
I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
14 Ary raha mampiangona rahona eo ambonin’ ny tany Aho, ka hita eo amin’ ny rahona ny avana,
It will happen, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,
15 dia hotsarovako ny fanekeko izay ho amiko sy ho aminareo mbamin’ ny zava-manan’ aina, dia ny nofo rehetra; ary tsy hisy safo-drano, handringana ny nofo rehetra intsony.
and I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters will no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
16 Ary ho eo amin’ ny rahona ny avana; ary hitsinjo azy Aho hahatsiarovako ny fanekena mandrakizay izay ho amin’ Andriamanitra sy ho amin’ ny zava-manan’ aina rehetra, dia ny nofo rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
The rainbow will be in the cloud. I will look at it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between me and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth."
17 Ary hoy Andriamanitra tamin’ i Noa: Izany no famantarana ny fanekena izay naoriko ho amiko sy ho amin’ ny nofo rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
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."
18 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Noa izay izay nivoaka avy tamin’ ny sambo-fiara dia Sema sy Hama ary Jafeta; ary i Hama no rain’ i Kanana.
The sons of Noah who came out of the ship were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham is the father of Canaan.
19 Ireo telo lahy ireo no zanak’ i Noa; ary avy tamin’ ireo no nielezan’ ny olona tambonin’ ny tany rehetra.
These were the three sons of Noah, and from them the whole earth was populated.
20 Ary vao tonga mpiasa tany Noa ka nanao tanim-boaloboka.
Noah, a farmer, was the first to plant a vineyard.
21 Ary nisotro tamin’ ny divay izy ka mamo; dia nanary lamba izy ka nitanjaka tao anatin’ ny lainy.
He drank of the wine and got drunk. He was uncovered within his tent.
22 Ary hitan’ i Hama, rain’ i Kanana ny fitanjahan’ ny rainy, dia nambarany tamin’ ny rahalahiny roa lahy teo ivelany.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked and told his two brothers outside.
23 Ary nalain’ i Sema sy Jafeta ny lamba ka nentin’ izy mirahalahy teo an-tsorony, dia nanao dia mianotra izy ka nandrakotra ny fitanjahan’ ny rainy; ary ny tavany tsy nanatrika, ka dia tsy hitany ny fitanjahan’ ny rainy.
Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it on both their shoulders, went in backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned the other way, and they did not see their father's nakedness.
24 Dia nahatsiaro Noa, rehefa afaka ny hamamoany, ka nahafantatra izay efa nataon’ ny zanany faralahy taminy.
Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him.
25 Dia hoy izy: Ho voaozona anie Kanana; Ho tena andevon’ ny rahalahiny izy.
He said, "Canaan is cursed. He will be servant of servants to his brothers."
26 Ary hoy koa izy: Isaorana anie Jehovah, Andriamanitr’ i Sema; Ary aoka Kanana ho andevony.
He said, "Blessed be the God of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.
27 Hataon’ Andriamanitra malalaka anie Jafeta; Ary aoka honina ao an-dain’ i Sema izy; Ary aoka Kanana ho andevony.
May God enlarge Japheth. Let him dwell in the tents of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant."
28 Ary ny andro niainan’ i Noa taorian’ ny safo-drano dia dimam-polo amby telon-jato taona.
Noah lived three hundred fifty years after the flood.
29 Ary ny andro rehetra niainan’ i Noa dia dimam-polo amby sivin-jato taona; dia maty izy.
All the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years, then he died.
