19 aThese three were the sons of Noah, band from these the whole earth was populated.  
20 And Noah began to be aa farmer, and he planted a vineyard.  
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.  
24 So Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done to him.
25 Then he said:

A bservant of servants
He shall be to his brethren.”

a“Blessed be the Lord,
The God of Shem,
And may Canaan be his servant.
