18 The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.

19 And these three were the sons of Noah, and of them the whole earth was inhabited.

20 And Noah began to cultivate the land, and planted a vineyard;

21 And he drank wine, and became drunk, and lay naked in his tent.

22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father's nakedness, and went out and told his two brethren.

23 And Shem and Japheth took the garment, and laid it on their shoulders, and went backwards, and covered their father's nakedness. their faces were turned back, and they did not see the nakedness of their father.

24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him,

25 And he said, 'Cursed is Canaan; he shall be the servant of his brethren.

26 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; And Canaan shall be his servant;

27 Let God spread Japheth, and let him dwell in the tents of Shem; And Canaan shall be his servant.

28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.

29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years, and he died.
