Genesis 9:18-29
1599 Geneva Bible
18 ¶ Now the sons of Noah going forth of the Ark, were Shem and Ham and Japheth. And Ham is the father of Canaan.
19 These are the three sons of Noah, and of them was the whole earth [a]overspread.
20 [b]Noah also began to be an husbandman, and planted a vineyard.
21 And he drunk of the wine, and was [c]drunken, and was uncovered in the midst of his tent.
22 And when Ham the father of [d]Canaan saw the nakedness of his father, [e]he told his two brethren without.
23 Then took Shem and Japheth a garment, and put it upon both their shoulders, and went backward and covered the nakedness of their father with their faces backward: so they saw not their father’s nakedness.
24 Then Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him,
25 And said, [f]Cursed be Canaan: a [g]servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
26 He said moreover, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem, and let Canaan be his [h]servant.
27 God [i][j]persuade Japheth, that he may dwell in the tents of Shem, and let Canaan be his servant.
28 ¶ And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
29 So all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
