Chapter 9 [9:1] God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth. [9:2] The fear and dread of you shall rest on every animal of the earth, and on every bird of the air, on everything that creeps on the ground, and on all the fish of the sea; into your hand they are delivered. [9:3] Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you; and just as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything. [9:4] Only, you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. [9:5] For your own lifeblood I will surely require a reckoning: from every animal I will require it and from human beings, each one for the blood of another, I will require a reckoning for human life. [9:6] Whoever sheds the blood of a human, by a human shall that person's blood be shed; for in his own image God made humankind. [9:7] And you, be fruitful and multiply, abound on the earth and multiply in it." [9:8] Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him, [9:9] "As for me, I am establishing my covenant with you and your descendants after you, [9:10] and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the domestic animals, and every animal of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark. [9:11] I establish my covenant with you, that never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of a flood, and never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth." [9:12] God said, "This is the sign of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations: [9:13] I have set my bow in the clouds, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. [9:14] When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds, [9:15] I will remember my covenant that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. [9:16] When the bow is in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth." [9:17] God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth." [9:18] The sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham was the father of Canaan. [9:19] These three were the sons of Noah; and from these the whole earth was peopled. [9:20] Noah, a man of the soil, was the first to plant a vineyard. [9:21] He drank some of the wine and became drunk, and he lay uncovered in his tent. [9:22] And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. [9:23] Then Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father; their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father's nakedness. [9:24] When Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his youngest son had done to him, [9:25] he said, "Cursed be Canaan; lowest of slaves shall he be to his brothers." [9:26] He also said, "Blessed by the LORD my God be Shem; and let Canaan be his slave. [9:27] May God make space for Japheth, and let him live in the tents of Shem; and let Canaan be his slave." [9:28] After the flood Noah lived three hundred fifty years. [9:29] All the days of Noah were nine hundred fifty years; and he died.

Chapter 2 [2:1] Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all their multitude. [2:2] And on the seventh day God finished the work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all the work that he had done. [2:3] So God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it God rested from all the work that he had done in creation. [2:4] These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created. In the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, [2:5] when no plant of the field was yet in the earth and no herb of the field had yet sprung up - for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no one to till the ground; [2:6] but a stream would rise from the earth, and water the whole face of the ground - [2:7] then the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being. [2:8] And the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east; and there he put the man whom he had formed. [2:9] Out of the ground the LORD God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food, the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. [2:10] A river flows out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it divides and becomes four branches. [2:11] The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one that flows around the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; [2:12] and the gold of that land is good; bdellium and onyx stone are there. [2:13] The name of the second river is Gihon; it is the one that flows around the whole land of Cush. [2:14] The name of the third river is Tigris, which flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates. [2:15] The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it. [2:16] And the LORD God commanded the man, "You may freely eat of every tree of the garden; [2:17] but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall die." [2:18] Then the LORD God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper as his partner." [2:19] So out of the ground the LORD God formed every animal of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name. [2:20] The man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the air, and to every animal of the field; but for the man there was not found a helper as his partner. [2:21] So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then he took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. [2:22] And the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. [2:23] Then the man said, "This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; this one shall be called Woman, for out of Man this one was taken." [2:24] Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife, and they become one flesh. [2:25] And the man and his wife were both naked, and were not ashamed.

Chapter 5 [5:1] This is the list of the descendants of Adam. When God created humankind, he made them in the likeness of God. [5:2] Male and female he created them, and he blessed them and named them "Humankind" when they were created. [5:3] When Adam had lived one hundred thirty years, he became the father of a son in his likeness, according to his image, and named him Seth. [5:4] The days of Adam after he became the father of Seth were eight hundred years; and he had other sons and daughters. [5:5] Thus all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred thirty years; and he died. [5:6] When Seth had lived one hundred five years, he became the father of Enosh. [5:7] Seth lived after the birth of Enosh eight hundred seven years, and had other sons and daughters. [5:8] Thus all the days of Seth were nine hundred twelve years; and he died. [5:9] When Enosh had lived ninety years, he became the father of Kenan. [5:10] Enosh lived after the birth of Kenan eight hundred fifteen years, and had other sons and daughters. [5:11] Thus all the days of Enosh were nine hundred five years; and he died. [5:12] When Kenan had lived seventy years, he became the father of Mahalalel. [5:13] Kenan lived after the birth of Mahalalel eight hundred and forty years, and had other sons and daughters. [5:14] Thus all the days of Kenan were nine hundred and ten years; and he died. [5:15] When Mahalalel had lived sixty-five years, he became the father of Jared. [5:16] Mahalalel lived after the birth of Jared eight hundred thirty years, and had other sons and daughters. [5:17] Thus all the days of Mahalalel were eight hundred ninety-five years; and he died. [5:18] When Jared had lived one hundred sixty-two years he became the father of Enoch. [5:19] Jared lived after the birth of Enoch eight hundred years, and had other sons and daughters. [5:20] Thus all the days of Jared were nine hundred sixty-two years; and he died. [5:21] When Enoch had lived sixty-five years, he became the father of Methuselah. [5:22] Enoch walked with God after the birth of Methuselah three hundred years, and had other sons and daughters. [5:23] Thus all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty-five years. [5:24] Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him. [5:25] When Methuselah had lived one hundred eighty-seven years, he became the father of Lamech. [5:26] Methuselah lived after the birth of Lamech seven hundred eighty- two years, and had other sons and daughters. [5:27] Thus all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty-nine years; and he died. [5:28] When Lamech had lived one hundred eighty-two years, he became the father of a son; [5:29] he named him Noah, saying, "Out of the ground that the LORD has cursed this one shall bring us relief from our work and from the toil of our hands." [5:30] Lamech lived after the birth of Noah five hundred ninety-five years, and had other sons and daughters. [5:31] Thus all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy-seven years; and he died. [5:32] After Noah was five hundred years old, Noah became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

Chapter 6 [6:1] When people began to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters were born to them, [6:2] the sons of God saw that they were fair; and they took wives for themselves of all that they chose. [6:3] Then the LORD said, "My spirit shall not abide in mortals forever, for they are flesh; their days shall be one hundred twenty years." [6:4] The Nephilim were on the earth in those days - and also afterward - when the sons of God went in to the daughters of humans, who bore children to them. These were the heroes that were of old, warriors of renown. [6:5] The LORD saw that the wickedness of humankind was great in the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of their hearts was only evil continually. [6:6] And the LORD was sorry that he had made humankind on the earth, and it grieved him to his heart. [6:7] So the LORD said, "I will blot out from the earth the human beings I have created - people together with animals and creeping things and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them." [6:8] But Noah found favor in the sight of the LORD. [6:9] These are the descendants of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God. [6:10] And Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. [6:11] Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight, and the earth was filled with violence. [6:12] And God saw that the earth was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted its ways upon the earth. [6:13] And God said to Noah, "I have determined to make an end of all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence because of them; now I am going to destroy them along with the earth. [6:14] Make yourself an ark of cypress wood; make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and out with pitch. [6:15] This is how you are to make it: the length of the ark three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits. [6:16] Make a roof for the ark, and finish it to a cubit above; and put the door of the ark in its side; make it with lower, second, and third decks. [6:17] For my part, I am going to bring a flood of waters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything that is on the earth shall die. [6:18] But I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall come into the ark, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you. [6:19] And of every living thing, of all flesh, you shall bring two of every kind into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female. [6:20] Of the birds according to their kinds, and of the animals according to their kinds, of every creeping thing of the ground according to its kind, two of every kind shall come in to you, to keep them alive. [6:21] Also take with you every kind of food that is eaten, and store it up; and it shall serve as food for you and for them." [6:22] Noah did this; he did all that God commanded him.

Chapter 3 [3:1] Now the serpent was more crafty than any other wild animal that the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God say, 'You shall not eat from any tree in the garden'?" [3:2] The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden; [3:3] but God said, 'You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, nor shall you touch it, or you shall die. '" [3:4] But the serpent said to the woman, "You will not die; [3:5] for God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." [3:6] So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate. [3:7] Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made loincloths for themselves. [3:8] They heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden at the time of the evening breeze, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden. [3:9] But the LORD God called to the man, and said to him, "Where are you?" [3:10] He said, "I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself." [3:11] He said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?" [3:12] The man said, "The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate." [3:13] Then the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this that you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent tricked me, and I ate." [3:14] The LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, cursed are you among all animals and among all wild creatures; upon your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life. [3:15] I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will strike your head, and you will strike his heel." [3:16] To the woman he said, "I will greatly increase your pangs in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children, yet your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you." [3:17] And to the man he said, "Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree about which I commanded you, 'You shall not eat of it, ' cursed is the ground because of you; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life; [3:18] thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you; and you shall eat the plants of the field. [3:19] By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; you are dust, and to dust you shall return." [3:20] The man named his wife Eve, because she was the mother of all living. [3:21] And the LORD God made garments of skins for the man and for his wife, and clothed them. [3:22] Then the LORD God said, "See, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever"-- [3:23] therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken. [3:24] He drove out the man; and at the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim, and a sword flaming and turning to guard the way to the tree of life.

Chapter 8

[8:1] But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and all the domestic animals that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind blow over the earth, and the waters subsided;
[8:2] the fountains of the deep and the windows of the heavens were closed, the rain from the heavens was restrained,
[8:3] and the waters gradually receded from the earth. At the end of one hundred fifty days the waters had abated;
[8:4] and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
[8:5] The waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains appeared.
[8:6] At the end of forty days Noah opened the window of the ark that he had made
[8:7] and sent out the raven; and it went to and fro until the waters were dried up from the earth.
[8:8] Then he sent out the dove from him, to see if the waters had subsided from the face of the ground;
[8:9] but the dove found no place to set its foot, and it returned to him to the ark, for the waters were still on the face of the whole earth. So he put out his hand and took it and brought it into the ark with him.
[8:10] He waited another seven days, and again he sent out the dove from the ark;
[8:11] and the dove came back to him in the evening, and there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf; so Noah knew that the waters had subsided from the earth.
[8:12] Then he waited another seven days, and sent out the dove; and it did not return to him any more.
[8:13] In the six hundred first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and saw that the face of the ground was drying.
[8:14] In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
[8:15] Then God said to Noah,
[8:16] "Go out of the ark, you and your wife, and your sons and your sons' wives with you.
[8:17] Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh - birds and animals and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth - so that they may abound on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth."
[8:18] So Noah went out with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives.
[8:19] And every animal, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves on the earth, went out of the ark by families.
[8:20] Then Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
[8:21] And when the LORD smelled the pleasing odor, the LORD said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground because of humankind, for the inclination of the human heart is evil from youth; nor will I ever again destroy every living creature as I have done.
[8:22] As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease."
