Genesis 9:10-29 ▼

10 And with euery liuing creature that is with you, in foule, in cattell, in euery beast of the earth whiche is with you, of all that go out of the arke, whatsoeuer liuing thyng of the earth it be.

11 And my couenaunt I make with you, that from hencefoorth euery fleshe be not rooted out with the waters of a fludde, neither shall there be a fludde to destroy the earth any more.

12 And God sayde: this is the token of the couenaut which I make betweene me and you, and euery lyuyng creature that is with you, for euer.

13 I do set my bowe in the cloude, and it shall be for a token betweene me and the earth.

14 And it shall come to passe, that when I bryng a cloude vpon the earth, the bowe also shalbe seene in ye same cloude.

15 And I wyll thinke vpon my couenaunt whiche is betweene me and you, and euery liuing creature in all fleshe: and it shall no more come to passe, that waters make a fludde to destroy all fleshe.

16 And the bowe shalbe in the cloude, and I wyll loke vpon it, that I may thinke vpon the euerlasting couenaunt, betweene god and euery liuing creature in all fleshe that is vpon the earth.

17 And God sayd vnto Noah, This is the token of the couenaunt which I haue made betweene me and all fleshe that is vpon earth.

18 The sonnes of Noah goyng foorth of the arke, were Sem, Ham, & Iapheth: and Ham is the father of Chanaan.

19 These are the three sonnes of Noah, & of them was the whole earth ouerspread.

20 Noah also began to be an husbandman, and planted a vineyarde.

21 And he drynkyng of the wyne, was dronken, and vncouered within his tent.

22 And Ham the father of Chanaan, seeyng the nakednesse of his father, tolde his two brethren without.

23 And Sem and Iapheth takyng a garment, layde it vpon their shoulders, and commyng backwarde, couered the nakednesse of their father, namely their faces beyng turned away, lest they should see their fathers nakednesse.

24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knewe what his younger sonne had done vnto him.

25 And he sayde: cursed be Chanaan, a seruaunt of seruauntes shall he be vnto his brethren.

26 He sayde moreouer: blessed be the Lord God of Sem, and Chanaan shalbe his seruaunt.

27 God shall enlarge Iapheth: and he shall dwell in the tentes of Sem, and Chanaan shalbe his seruaunt.

28 Noah liued after the fludde three hundred and fiftie yeres.

29 And all the dayes of Noah, were nine hundred and fiftie yeres, and he dyed.
