Liber Genesis

Benedixitque Deus Noë et filiis ejus. Et dixit ad eos: Crescite, et multiplicamini, et replete terram.

And God blessed Noe and his sons. And he said to them: Increase, and multiply, and fill the earth.

Et Deo benedic Noë et ad filios de illo. Et crescite ad illos: dic, et multiplica, et reple terra.

Et terror vester ac tremor sit super cuncta animalia terræ, et super omnes volucres cæli, cum universis quæ moventur super terram: omnes pisces maris manui vestræ traditi sunt.

And let the fear and dread of you be upon all the beasts of the earth, and upon all the fowls of the air, and all that move upon the earth: all the fishes of the sea are delivered into your hand.

Et terrore vestro et tremore es super cuncta animales de terra, et super omni volucres de caelo, cum universa que move super terra: omni pisces de mari ad manu vestro trade es.

Et omne, quod movetur et vivit, erit vobis in cibum: quasi olera virentia tradidi vobis omnia.

And every thing that moveth, and liveth shall be meat for you: even as the green herbs have I delivered them all to you:

Et omni, quod move et vive, es ad vos in cibo: quasi holeres virentias trade ad vos omni.

Excepto, quod carnem cum sanguine non comedetis.

Saving that flesh with blood you shall not eat.

Excipe, quod carne cum sanguine non comede.

Sanguinem enim animarum vestrarum requiram de manu cunctarum bestiarum: et de manu hominis, de manu viri, et fratris ejus requiram animam hominis.

For I will require the blood of your lives at the hand of every beast, and at the hand of man, at the hand of every man, and of his brother, will I require the life of man.

Sanguine nam de animas vestro require de manu cuncta de bestias: et de manu de homine, de manu de viro, et de fratre de illo require anima de homine.

Quicumque effuderit humanum sanguinem, fundetur sanguis illius: ad imaginem quippe Dei factus est homo.

Whosoever shall shed man's blood, his blood shall be shed: for man was made to the image of God.

Omni effunde humano sanguine, sanguine de illo funde: ad imagine quippe de Deo facto es homine.

Vos autem crescite et multiplicamini, et ingredimini super terram, et implete eam.

But increase you and multiply, and go upon the earth and fill it.

Vos autem cresce et multiplica, et ingredior super terra, et imple illa.

Hæc quoque dixit Deus ad Noë, et ad filios ejus cum eo:

Thus also said God to Noe, and to his sons with him:

Deo etiam dic hoc ad Noë, et ad filios de illo cum eo:

Ecce ego statuam pactum meum vobiscum, et cum semine vestro post vos:

Behold I will establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you:

Ecce me statue pacto meo vobisca, et cum semine vestro post vos:

et ad omnem animam viventem, quæ est vobiscum, tam in volucribus quam in jumentis et pecudibus terræ cunctis, quæ egressa sunt de arca, et universis bestiis terræ.

And with every living soul that is with you, as well in all birds, as in cattle and beasts of the earth, that are come forth out of the ark, and in all the beasts of the earth.

Et ad omni anima vive, que es vos, tam in volucres quam in iumentos et pecores de terra cuncta, que egredior es de arca, et universa bestias de terra.

Statuam pactum meum vobiscum, et nequaquam ultra interficietur omnis caro aquis diluvii, neque erit deinceps diluvium dissipans terram.

I will establish my covenant with you, and all flesh shall be no more destroyed with the waters of a flood, neither shall there be from henceforth a flood to waste the earth.

Statua paciscor meo vobisca, et nequaquam ultra omni carne interfice aquas de diluvio, neque diluvio deinceps es dissipa terra.

Dixitque Deus: Hoc signum fœderis quod do inter me et vos, et ad omnem animam viventem, quæ est vobiscum in generationes sempiternas:

And God said: This is the sign of the covenant which I give between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations.

Et dic Deo: hoc signo de foedro quod da inter me et vos, et ad omni anima vive, que es vos in generationes sempiterno:

arcum meum ponam in nubibus, et erit signum fœderis inter me et inter terram.

I will set my bow in the clouds, and it shall be the sign of a covenant between me and between the earth.

Arcu meo pone in nubes, et signo de foedro inter me es et inter terra.

Cumque obduxero nubibus cælum, apparebit arcus meus in nubibus:

And when I shall cover the sky with clouds, my bow shall appear in the clouds:

Cumque obduce ad nubes caelo, arcu meo appare in nubes:

et recordabor fœderis mei vobiscum, et cum omni anima vivente quæ carnem vegetat: et non erunt ultra aquæ diluvii ad delendum universam carnem.

And I will remember my covenant with you, and with every living soul that beareth flesh: and there shall no more be waters of a flood to destroy all flesh.

Et recordor de foedro meo vos, et cum omni anima vive que vegeta carne: et non es ultra aqua de diluvio ad dele universa carne.

Eritque arcus in nubibus, et videbo illum, et recordabor fœderis sempiterni quod pactum est inter Deum et omnem animam viventem universæ carnis quæ est super terram.

And the bow shall be in the clouds, and I shall see it, and shall remember the everlasting covenant, that was made between God and every living soul of all flesh which is upon the earth.

Et es arcu in nubes, et vide illo, et recordor de foedro sempiterno quod paciscor es inter Deo et omni anima vive universa de carne que es super terra.

Dixitque Deus ad Noë: Hoc erit signum fœderis, quod constitui inter me et omnem carnem super terram.

And God said to Noe: This shall be the sign of the covenant, which I have established, between me and all flesh upon the earth.

Et Deo dic ad Noë: hoc es signo de foedro, quod constitue inter me et omni carne super terra.

Erant ergo filii Noë, qui egressi sunt de arca, Sem, Cham et Japheth: porro Cham ipse est pater Chanaan.

And the sons of Noe, who came out of the ark, were Sem, Cham, and Japheth: and Cham is the father of Chanaan.

Es ergo filios Noë, qui egredior es de arca, Seme, Chama et Iapheth: porro Chama ipso es patre Chanaane.

Tres isti filii sunt Noë: et ab his disseminatum est omne genus hominum super universam terram.

These three are the sons of Noe: and from these was all mankind spread over the whole earth.

Tre isto filios es Noë: et ab hoc dissemina es omni genere de homines super universa terra.

Cœpitque Noë vir agricola exercere terram, et plantavit vineam.

And Noe a husbandman began to till the ground, and planted a vineyard.

Et Noë viro agricola incipe exerce terra, et planta vinea.

Bibensque vinum inebriatus est, et nudatus in tabernaculo suo.

And drinking of the wine was made drunk, and was uncovered in his tent.

Et bibente vino inebria es, et nuda in tabernaculo suo.

Quod cum vidisset Cham, pater Chanaan, verenda scilicet patris sui esse nudata, nuntiavit duobus fratribus suis foras.

Which when Cham the father of Chanaan had seen, to wit, that his father's nakedness was uncovered, he told it to his two brethren without.

Quod cum vide Chama, patre Chanaane, vereor id es de patre suo es nuda, nuntia duo fratre suo foras.

At vero Sem et Japheth pallium imposuerunt humeris suis, et incedentes retrorsum, operuerunt verenda patris sui: faciesque eorum aversæ erant, et patris virilia non viderunt.

But Sem and Japheth put a cloak upon their shoulders, and going backward, covered the nakedness of their father: and their faces were turned away, and they saw not their father's nakedness.

Sed vero Seme et Iapheth impone palle ad humpras suo, et incede retrorsus, operi vereor de patre suo: et facies de illos averte es, et de patre virilias non vide.

Evigilans autem Noë ex vino, cum didicisset quæ fecerat ei filius suus minor,

And Noe awaking from the wine, when he had learned what his younger son had done to him,

Evigila autem Noë ex vino, cum disce filio suo ad illo fac que minimo,

ait: Maledictus Chanaan, servus servorum erit fratribus suis.

He said: Cursed be Chanaan, a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.

Dic: maledice Chanaane, servo de servos es ad fratres suo.

Dixitque: Benedictus Dominus Deus Sem, sit Chanaan servus ejus.

And he said: Blessed be the Lord God of Sem, be Chanaan his servant.

Et benedicto: Domino Deo Seme dic, es Chanaane servo de illo.

Dilatet Deus Japheth, et habitet in tabernaculis Sem, sitque Chanaan servus ejus.

May God enlarge Japheth, and may he dwell in the tents of Sem, and Chanaan be his servant.

Deo dilate Iapheth, et habita in tabernaculos Seme, et es Chanaane servo de illo.

Vixit autem Noë post diluvium trecentis quinquaginta annis.

And Noe lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.

Noë autem vive post diluvio trecenti quinquaginta annos.

Et impleti sunt omnes dies ejus nongentorum quinquaginta annorum: et mortuus est.

And all his days were in the whole nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.

Et imple es omni dies de illo de nongentos quinquaginta de annos: et morto es.
