Genesis 9:1-29 NASB

[1] Then God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth. [2] The fear of you and the terror of you will be on every animal of the earth and on every bird of the sky; on everything that crawls on the ground, and on all the fish of the sea. They are handed over to you. [3] Every moving thing that is alive shall be food for you; I have given everything to you, as I gave the green plant. [4] But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. [5] I certainly will require your lifeblood; from every animal I will require it. And from every person, from every man as his brother I will require the life of a person. [6] “Whoever sheds human blood, By man his blood shall be shed, For in the image of God He made mankind. [7] “As for you, be fruitful and multiply; Populate the earth abundantly and multiply in it.” [8] Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying, [9] “Now behold, I Myself am establishing My covenant with you, and with your descendants after you; [10] and with every living creature that is with you: the birds, the livestock, and every animal of the earth with you; of all that comes out of the ark, every animal of the earth. [11] I establish My covenant with you; and all flesh shall never again be eliminated by the waters of a flood, nor shall there again be a flood to destroy the earth.” [12] God said, “This is the sign of the covenant which I am making between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations; [13] I have set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall serve as a sign of a covenant between Me and the earth. [14] It shall come about, when I make a cloud appear over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud, [15] and I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and never again shall the water become a flood to destroy all flesh. [16] When the rainbow is in the cloud, then I will look at it, to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” [17] And God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.” [18] Now the sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and Ham was the father of Canaan. [19] These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated. [20] Then Noah began farming and planted a vineyard. [21] He drank some of the wine and became drunk, and uncovered himself inside his tent. [22] Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. [23] But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it on both their shoulders and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were turned away, so that they did not see their father’s nakedness. [24] When Noah awoke from his wine, he knew what his youngest son had done to him. [25] So he said, “Cursed be Canaan; A servant of servants He shall be to his brothers.” [26] He also said, “Blessed be the Lord, The God of Shem; And may Canaan be his servant. [27] “May God enlarge Japheth, And may he live in the tents of Shem; And may Canaan be his servant.” [28] Noah lived 350 years after the flood. [29] So all the days of Noah were 950 years, and he died.
