Genesis 9
Peshitta Holy Bible Translated Par ▾ 
1And God blessed Noah and his children and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the Earth. 2And the fear of you and the trembling of you will be on every animal of the Earth, and upon every bird of Heaven, and upon everything that crawls the Earth and all fish of the sea; they are given up into your hands. 3And every creeping thing that lives shall be yours for food; as the green grass I have given everything to you. 4Only the flesh whose blood is in itself you shall not eat. 5And however, your blood of your lives I shall require from the agency of every animal; it will be required from the agency of a man and I shall require the life of a man from the agency of a man and his brother.

6Whoever will shed the blood of man, by man his blood shall be shed, because Adam was made in the image of God.

7And you, be fruitful and multiply and reproduce in the earth and multiply in it.”

8And God said to Noah and to his sons with him: 9“Behold, I am establishing my covenant with you and with your seed after you; 10And with every living soul that is with you, and with bird and with beast, and with every animal of the Earth that is with you, of all leaving the ark and with every animal of the Earth. 11And I shall establish my covenant with you, and all flesh shall not end again by the waters of a flood, and there shall not be a flood again to destroy the Earth.” 12And God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I am giving between me and you and between every soul living that is with you, for the generations of the world: 13My rainbow I have given in the clouds, and it shall be the sign of my covenant between me and the Earth. 14And it will be, when I bring out a cloud over the Earth, and the bow will be seen in the clouds: 15I shall remember my covenant that is between me and you and between every living soul that is with you, and between all flesh, and there shall not be again the waters of a flood to destroy all flesh; 16And there will be a bow in the clouds and I shall see it for a memorial of the eternal covenant between God and between every soul living of all flesh that is upon earth.” 17And God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between myself and between all flesh that is upon Earth.”

18And the sons of Noah that came out from the ark were Shym and Kham and Yaphet; Kham was the father of Canaan. 19These three are the sons of Noah and from these they were scattered in all the Earth.

20And Noah began working in the earth and he planted a vineyard: 21And he drank from its wine and he was drunk and he was exposed within the tent. 22And Kham the father of Canaan saw the nakedness of his father and he showed his two brothers. 23And Sheem and Yaphet took a cloak and they threw it over both their shoulders and they walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father and their faces were toward their back and they did not the nakedness of their father. 24And Noah was awakened from his wine and knew everything that his youngest son had done to him.

25And he said, “Canaan is cursed, he shall be a Servant of Servants to his brothers.”

26And he said, “LORD JEHOVAH the God of Sheem is blessed and Canaan will be a Servant to them.

27God will enlarge Yapheth and he will dwell in the tabernacle of Sheem and Canaan will be a Servant to them.”

28And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years. 29And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years, and he died.
