katapi HOME Genesis 9:18-29 - Noah and his sons.  Gn.9.18-29

9 18 The sons of Noah who went forth from 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 was the first tiller of the soil. He planted a vineyard; 9 21 and he drank of the wine, and became drunk, and 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 upon 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;
a slave of slaves shall he be to his brothers."
9 26 He also said,
"Blessed by Yahweh my God be Shem;
and let Canaan be his slave."
9 27 God enlarge Japheth,
and let him dwell in the tents of Shem;
and let Canaan be his slave."

9 28 After the flood Noah lived three hundred and fifty years. 9 29 All the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.
