Genesis 9

1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
Compare verse
2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be on every beast of the earth, and on every fowl of the air, on all that moves on the earth, and on all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
Compare verse
3 Every moving thing that lives shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
Compare verse
4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall you not eat.
Compare verse
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.
Compare verse
6 Whoever sheds man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
Compare verse
7 And you, be you fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.
Compare verse
8 And God spoke to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
Compare verse
9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
Compare verse
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.
Compare verse
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.
Compare verse
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:
Compare verse
13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
Compare verse
14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
Compare verse
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.
Compare verse
16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look on it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.
Compare verse
17 And God said to Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.
Compare verse
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.
Compare verse
19 These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth covered.
Compare verse
20 And Noah began to be an farmer, and he planted a vineyard:
Compare verse
21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
Compare verse
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers without.
Compare verse
23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it on 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.
Compare verse
24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done to him.
Compare verse
25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be to his brothers.
Compare verse
26 And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
Compare verse
27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
Compare verse
28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
Compare verse
29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
