¹ And God blessed Noe and his sons, and said to them, Increase and multiply, and fill the earth and have dominion over it. ² And the dread and the fear of you shall be upon all the wild beasts of the earth, on all the birds of the sky, and on all things moving upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea, I have placed them under you power. ³ And every reptile which is living shall be to you for meat, I have given all things to you as the green herbs. ⁴ But flesh with blood of life ye shall not eat. ⁵ For your blood of your lives will I require at the hand of all wild beasts, and I will require the life of man at the hand of his brother man. ⁶ He that sheds man's blood, instead of that blood shall his own be shed, for in the image of God I made man. ⁷ But do ye increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and have dominion over it. ⁸ And God spoke to Noe, and to his sons with him, saying, ⁹ And behold I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you, ¹⁰ and with every living creature with you, of birds and of beasts, and with all the wild beasts of the earth, as many as are with you, of all that come out of the ark. ¹¹ And I will establish my covenant with you and all flesh shall not any more die by the water of the flood, and there shall no more be a flood of water to destroy all the earth. ¹² And the Lord God said to Noe, This is the sign of the covenant which I set between me and you, and between every living creature which is with you for perpetual generations. ¹³ I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of covenant between me and the earth. ¹⁴ And it shall be when I gather clouds upon the earth, that my bow shall be seen in the cloud. ¹⁵ And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you, and between every living soul in all flesh, and there shall no longer be water for a deluge, so as to blot out all flesh. ¹⁶ And my bow shall be in the cloud, and I will look to remember the everlasting covenant between me and the earth, and between every living soul in all flesh, which is upon the earth. ¹⁷ And God said to Noe, This is the sign of the covenant, which I have made between me and all flesh, which is upon the earth. ¹⁸ Now the sons of Noe which came out of the ark, were Sem, Cham, Japheth. And Cham was father of Chanaan. ¹⁹ These three are the sons of Noe, of these were men scattered over all the earth. ²⁰ And Noe began to be a husbandman, and he planted a vineyard. ²¹ And he drank of the wine, and was drunk, and was naked in his house. ²² And Cham the father of Chanaan saw the nakedness of his father, and he went out and told his two brothers without. ²³ And Sem and Japheth having taken a garment, put it on both their backs and went backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their face was backward, and they saw not the nakedness of their father. ²⁴ And Noe recovered from the wine, and knew all that his younger son had done to him. ²⁵ And he said, Cursed be the servant Chanaan, a slave shall he be to his brethren. ²⁶ And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Sem, and Chanaan shall be his bond-servant. ²⁷ May God make room for Japheth, and let him dwell in the habitations of Sem, and let Chanaan be his servant. ²⁸ And Noe lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years. ²⁹ And all the days of Noe were nine hundred and fifty years, and he died.

⁶ and I said, O Lord, I am ashamed and confounded, O my God, to lift up my face to thee: for our transgressions have abounded over our head, and our trespasses have increased even to heaven. ⁷ From the days of our fathers we have been in a great trespass until this day: and because of our iniquities we, and our kings, and our children, have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the Gentiles by the sword, and by captivity, and by spoil, and with shame of our face, as at this day. ⁸ And now our God has dealt mercifully with us, so as to leave us to escape, and to give us an establishment in the place of his sanctuary, to enlighten our eyes, and to give a little quickening in our servitude. ⁹ For we are slaves, yet in our servitude the Lord our God has not deserted us; and he has extended favour to us in the sight of the kings of the Persians, to give us a quickening, that they should raise up the house of our God, and restore the desolate places of it, and to give us a fence in Juda and Jerusalem. ¹⁰ What shall we say, our God, after this? for we have forsaken thy commandments, ¹¹ which thou hast given us by the hand of thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, into which ye go to inherit it, is a land subject to disturbance by the removal of the people of the nations for their abominations, wherewith they have filled it from one end to the other by their uncleanness. ¹² And now give not your daughters to their sons, and take not of their daughters for your sons, neither shall ye seek their peace or their good for ever: that ye may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and transmit it as an inheritance to your children for ever. ¹³ And after all that is come upon us because of our evil deeds, and our great trespass, it is clear that there is none such as our God, for thou has lightly visited our iniquities, and given us deliverance; ¹⁴ whereas we have repeatedly broken thy commandments, and intermarried with the people of the lands: be not very angry with us to our utter destruction, so that there should be no remnant or escaping one. ¹⁵ O Lord God of Israel, thou art righteous; for we remain yet escaped, as at this day: behold, we are before thee in our trespasses: for we cannot stand before thee on this account.

⁸ In a little wrath I turned away my face from thee; but with everlasting mercy will I have compassion upon thee, saith the Lord that delivers thee. ⁹ From the time of the water of Noe this is my purpose: as I sware to him at that time, saying of the earth, I will no more be wroth with thee, neither when thou art threatened, ¹⁰ shall the mountains depart, nor shall thy hills be removed: so neither shall my mercy fail thee, nor shall the covenant of thy peace be at all removed: for the Lord who is gracious to thee has spoken it.

¹³ I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of covenant between me and the earth.

¹⁶ And my bow shall be in the cloud, and I will look to remember the everlasting covenant between me and the earth, and between every living soul in all flesh, which is upon the earth.

²⁸ As the appearance of the bow when it is in the cloud in days of rain, so was the form of brightness round about.

⁸ And God spoke to Noe, and to his sons with him, saying, ⁹ And behold I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you, ¹⁰ and with every living creature with you, of birds and of beasts, and with all the wild beasts of the earth, as many as are with you, of all that come out of the ark. ¹¹ And I will establish my covenant with you and all flesh shall not any more die by the water of the flood, and there shall no more be a flood of water to destroy all the earth. ¹² And the Lord God said to Noe, This is the sign of the covenant which I set between me and you, and between every living creature which is with you for perpetual generations. ¹³ I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of covenant between me and the earth. ¹⁴ And it shall be when I gather clouds upon the earth, that my bow shall be seen in the cloud. ¹⁵ And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you, and between every living soul in all flesh, and there shall no longer be water for a deluge, so as to blot out all flesh. ¹⁶ And my bow shall be in the cloud, and I will look to remember the everlasting covenant between me and the earth, and between every living soul in all flesh, which is upon the earth.

¹² And the Lord God said to Noe, This is the sign of the covenant which I set between me and you, and between every living creature which is with you for perpetual generations. ¹³ I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of covenant between me and the earth.
