And God blessed
Noah
and his sons
, and said
unto them, Be fruitful
, and multiply
, and replenish
the earth
.
And the fear of you and the dread of you
shall be upon every beast
of the earth
, and upon every fowl
of the air
, upon all that moveth
upon the earth
, and upon all the fishes
of the sea
; into your hand
are they delivered
.
Every moving thing that liveth
shall be meat
for you; even as the green
herb
have I given
you all things.
But flesh
with the life
thereof, which is the blood
thereof, shall ye not eat
.
And surely your blood
of your lives
will I require
; at the hand
of every beast
will I require it
, and at the hand
of man
; at the hand
of every man's
brother
will I require
the life
of man
.
Whoso sheddeth man's
blood
, by man
shall his blood
be shed
: for in the image
of God
made
he man
.
And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply
; bring forth abundantly
in the earth
, and multiply
therein.
And God spake
unto Noah
, and to his sons
with him, saying
,
And I, behold, I establish my covenant
with you, and with your seed
after you
;
And with every living creature
that is with you, of the fowl
, of the cattle
, and of every beast
of the earth
with you; from all that go out
of the ark
, to every beast
of the earth
.
And I will establish my covenant
with you; neither shall all flesh
be cut off
any more by the waters
of a flood
; neither shall there any more be a flood
to destroy
the earth
.
And God said
, This is the token
of the covenant
which I
make
between me and you and every living
creature
that is with you, for perpetual
generations
:
I do set my bow
in the cloud
, and it shall be for a token
of a covenant
between me and the earth
.
And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud
over the earth
, that the bow
shall be seen
in the cloud
:
And I will remember my covenant
, which is between me and you and every living
creature
of all flesh
; and the waters
shall no more
become a flood
to destroy
all flesh
.
And the bow shall be in the cloud
; and I will look upon it
, that I may remember
the everlasting
covenant
between
God
and
every living
creature
of all flesh
that is upon the earth
.
And God said
unto Noah
, This is the token
of the covenant
, which I have established
between me and all flesh
that is upon the earth
.
And the sons of Noah
, that went forth
of the ark
, were Shem
, and Ham
, and Japheth
: and Ham
is the father
of Canaan
.
These are the three sons
of Noah
: and of them was the whole earth
overspread
.
And Noah began
to be an husbandman
, and he planted
a vineyard
:
And he drank of the wine
, and was drunken
; and he was uncovered
within
his tent
.
And Ham, the father
of Canaan
, saw
the nakedness
of his father
, and told
his two
brethren
without
.
And Shem and Japheth
took
a garment
, and laid
it upon both
their shoulders
, and went
backward
, and covered
the nakedness
of their father
; and their faces
were backward
, and they saw
not their father's
nakedness
.
And Noah awoke
from his wine
, and knew
what his younger
son
had done
unto him.
And he said, Cursed
be Canaan
; a servant
of servants
shall he be unto his brethren
.
And he said, Blessed
be the LORD
God
of Shem
; and Canaan
shall be
his servant
.
God shall enlarge
Japheth
, and he shall dwell
in the tents
of Shem
; and Canaan
shall be his servant
.
And Noah lived
after
the flood
three
hundred
and fifty
years
.
And all the days of Noah
were nine
hundred
and fifty
years
: and he died
.
