Genesis 9:20-27

[20] And Noah  began  and he planted  a vineyard:  [21] And he drank  of the wine,  and was drunken;  and he was uncovered  within  his tent.  [22] And Ham,  the father  of Canaan,  saw  the nakedness  of his father,  and told  his two  brethren  without.  [23] And Shem  and Japheth  took  a garment,  and laid  it upon both  their shoulders,  backward,  and covered  the nakedness  of their father;  and their faces  were backward,  and they saw  not their father's  nakedness.  [24] And Noah  awoke  from his wine,  and knew  what his younger  son  had done  unto him. [25] And he said,  Cursed  be Canaan;  a servant  shall he be unto his brethren.  [26] And he said,  Blessed  be the LORD  God  of Shem;  and Canaan  shall be  his servant.  [27] God  shall enlarge  Japheth,  and he shall dwell  in the tents  of Shem;  and Canaan  shall be his servant.
