THE HOLY BIBLE Authorized King James

Genesis (Author Moses)

9:20And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:

9:21And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.

9:22And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.

9:23And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.

9:24And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.

9:25And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.

9:26And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.

9:27God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
