21 Then he drank of the wine aand was drunk, and became uncovered in his tent.  
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
23 aBut Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and went backward and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were1 turned away, and they did not see their father’s nakedness.

a“Cursed be Canaan;
A bservant of servants
He shall be to his brethren.”  
26 And he said:
a“Blessed be the Lord,
The God of Shem,
And may Canaan be his servant. 
27 May God aenlarge Japheth,
bAnd may he dwell in the tents of Shem;
And may 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.
