1 Enlil blessed Noah and his sons:
Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. 2 Every beast of the earth will fear you and dread you. Every bird, creature, and fish of the earth will be delivered to your hand.
3 Every moving thing that lives shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. 4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, you shall not eat.
5 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. 6 Whoever sheds man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for man was made in the image of the Anunnaki [God].
7 Be fruitful and multiply. Bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.
8 Enlil spoke to Noah and to his sons:
9 I establish my covenant:
- with you, and with your seed after you
- 10 with every living creature that is with you: fowl, cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, from all that went out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.
11 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.
12 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:
13 I set my rainbow in the cloud as a token of a covenant between me and the earth. 14 When I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud.
15 I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. There will be no more flood to destroy all flesh.
16 The rainbow shall be in the cloud. I will look at it so that I may remember the everlasting covenant between me and every living creature of all flesh on the earth.*
Superphysics Note
17 [To Noah:] This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh on the earth.
18-19The sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth.
Ham is the father of Canaan.
20 Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard. 21 He drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his 2 brothers outside.
23 Shem and Japheth took a garment, and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces [were] backward, and they saw not their father’s nakedness.
24 Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him:
25 Cursed be Canaan. It will be a servant of servants for his brethren.
26 Blessed be Enlil of Shem. Canaan shall be his servant. 27 Enlil shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem. Canaan shall be his servant.
28 Noah lived after the flood 350 years. 29 All the days of Noah were 950 years until he died.
