创9:1 神赐福给挪亚和他的儿子，对他们说：“你们要繁殖增多，充满大地。
创9:1 And God gave his blessing to Noah and his sons, and said, Be fertile, and have increase, and make the earth full.
创9:2 地上各样的走兽，空中各样的飞鸟，甚至地上各样爬行的动物，和海里各样的鱼类，都要对你们惊恐惧怕；这一切都已经交在你们手里了。
创9:2 And the fear of you will be strong in every beast of the earth and every bird of the air; everything which goes on the land, and all the fishes of the sea, are given into your hands.
创9:3 所有活着的动物都可以作你们的食物，我把这一切都赐给你们，好像我把青菜赐给了你们一样。
创9:3 Every living and moving thing will be food for you; I give them all to you as before I gave you all green things.
创9:4 唯独带着生命的肉，就是带着血的肉，你们却不可吃。
创9:4 But flesh with the life-blood in it you may not take for food.
创9:5 流你们的血、害你们生命的，我必向他们追偿；无论是走兽或人类，甚至各人自己的兄弟，我必要他偿命。
创9:5 And for your blood, which is your life, will I take payment; from every beast I will take it, and from every man will I take payment for the blood of his brother-man.
创9:6 流人血的，人也必流他的血；因为 神造人，是按着他自己的形象。
创9:6 Whoever takes a man's life, by man will his life be taken; because God made man in his image.
创9:7 你们要繁殖增多；要在地上滋生、增多。”
创9:7 And now, be fertile and have increase; have offspring on the earth and become great in number.
创9:8 神告诉挪亚和与他在一起的儿子说：
创9:8 And God said to Noah and to his sons,
创9:9 “看哪，我现在与你们和你们的后裔立约，
创9:9 Truly, I will make my agreement with you and with your seed after you,
创9:10 并且与所有跟你们在一起有生命的活物立约，包括飞鸟、牲畜和所有地上的走兽，就是与从方舟里出来的立约。
创9:10 And with every living thing with you, all birds and cattle and every beast of the earth which comes out of the ark with you.
创9:11 我要与你们立约：凡有生命的必不再被洪水除灭，再没有洪水来毁灭大地了。”
创9:11 And I will make my agreement with you; never again will all flesh be cut off by the waters; never again will the waters come over all the earth for its destruction.
创9:12 神说：“这就是我与你们，与一切跟你们同在有生命的活物所立之约的记号，直到万代；
创9:12 And God said, This is the sign of the agreement which I make between me and you and every living thing with you, for all future generations:
创9:13 我把天虹放在云彩中，作我与大地立约的记号。
创9:13 I will put my bow in the cloud and it will be for a sign of the agreement between me and the earth.
创9:14 我使云彩遮盖大地时，天虹出现云彩中，
创9:14 And whenever I make a cloud come over the earth, the bow will be seen in the cloud,
创9:15 我就记念我与你们和一切有生命的活物所立的约：水不再成为洪水，来毁灭凡有生命的。
创9:15 And I will keep in mind the agreement between me and you and every living thing; and never again will there be a great flow of waters causing destruction to all flesh.
创9:16 天虹在云彩中出现，我看见了就记念我与地上一切有生命的活物，所立的永约。”
创9:16 And the bow will be in the cloud, and looking on it, I will keep in mind the eternal agreement between God and every living thing on the earth.
创9:17 神对挪亚说：“这就是我与地上凡有生命的立约的记号。”
创9:17 And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the agreement which I have made between me and all flesh on the earth.
创9:18 挪亚的儿子，从方舟里出来的，就是闪、含、雅弗；含是迦南的父亲。
创9:18 And the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is the father of Canaan.
创9:19 这三个人是挪亚的儿子，全地的人都是从这些人播散开来的。
创9:19 These three were the sons of Noah and from them all the earth was peopled.
创9:20 挪亚作起农夫来，栽种葡萄园。
创9:20 In those days Noah became a farmer, and he made a vine-garden.
创9:21 他喝酒，喝醉了，就在帐棚里光着身子。
创9:21 And he took of the wine of it and was overcome by drink; and he was uncovered in his tent.
创9:22 迦南的父亲含看见了自己父亲的下体，就去告诉在外面的两个兄弟。
创9:22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father unclothed, and gave news of it to his two brothers outside.
创9:23 于是，闪和雅弗二人拿了件外衣，搭在自己的肩膀上，倒退着进去，盖上他们父亲的下体；因为他们背着脸，所以没有看见他们父亲的下体。
创9:23 And Shem and Japheth took a robe, and putting it on their backs went in with their faces turned away, and put it over their father so that they might not see him unclothed.
创9:24 挪亚酒醒以后，知道小儿子对他所作的事，
创9:24 And, awaking from his wine, Noah saw what his youngest son had done to him, and he said,
创9:25 就说：“迦南应当受咒诅，他必给自己的兄弟，作奴仆的奴仆。”
创9:25 Cursed be Canaan; let him be a servant of servants to his brothers.
创9:26 又说：“耶和华，闪的 神，是应当称颂的；愿迦南作他的奴仆。
创9:26 And he said, Praise to the Lord, the God of Shem; let Canaan be his servant.
创9:27 愿 神使雅弗扩展，使雅弗住在闪的帐棚里；愿迦南作他的奴仆。”
创9:27 May God make Japheth great, and let his living-place be in the tents of Shem, and let Canaan be his servant.
创9:28 洪水以后，挪亚又活了三百五十年。
创9:28 And Noah went on living three hundred and fifty years after the great flow of waters;
创9:29 挪亚共活了九百五十岁，就死了。
创9:29 all the years of his life were nine hundred and fifty: and he came to his end.
