1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruit­ful, and mul­ti­ply, and re­plen­ish the earth. 2 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. 3 Ev­ery mov­ing thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I giv­en you all things. 4 But flesh with the life there­of, which is the blood there­of, shall ye not eat. 5 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. 6 Whoso shed­deth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the im­age of God made he man. 7 And you, be ye fruit­ful, and mul­ti­ply; bring forth abun­dant­ly in the earth, and mul­ti­ply there­in. 8 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, say­ing, 9 And I, be­hold, I es­tab­lish my covenant with you, and with your seed af­ter you; 10 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. 11 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. 12 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: 13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a to­ken of a covenant be­tween me and the earth. 14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: 15 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. 16 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. 17 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. 18 And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the fa­ther of Canaan. 19 These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth over­spread. 20 And Noah be­gan ­to be an hus­band­man, and he plant­ed a vine­yard: 21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunk­en; and he was un­cov­ered with­in his tent. 22 And Ham, the fa­ther of Canaan, saw the naked­ness of his fa­ther, and told his two brethren with­out. 23 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. 24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him. 25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a ser­vant of ser­vants shall he be unto his brethren. 26 And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his ser­vant. 27 God shall en­large Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his ser­vant. 28 And Noah lived af­ter the flood three hun­dred and fifty years. 29 And all the days of Noah were nine hun­dred and fifty years: and he died.
