Genesis 9:20-25

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁰ And Noe, a husbandman, began to till the ground, and planted a vineyard.

²¹ And drinking of the wine was made drunk, and was uncovered in his tent.

²² Which when Cham the father of Chanaan had seen, to wit, that his father's nakedness was uncovered, he told it to his two brethren without.

²³ But Sem and Japheth put a cloak upon their shoulders, and going backward, covered the nakedness of their father: and their faces were turned away, and they saw not their father's nakedness.

²⁴ And Noe awaking from the wine, when he had learned what his younger son had done to him,

²⁵ He said: Cursed be Chanaan, a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
