Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Genesis 9
¹⁵ and I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and never again shall the water become a flood to destroy all flesh.
¹⁶ When the bow is in the cloud, then I will look upon it, to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth."
¹⁷ And God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth."
¹⁸ Now the sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem and Ham and Japheth; and Ham was the father of Canaan.
¹⁹ These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.
²⁰ Then Noah began farming and planted a vineyard.
²¹ He drank of the wine and became drunk, and uncovered himself inside his tent.
²² Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
²³ But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it upon both their shoulders and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were turned away, so that they did not see their father’s nakedness.
²⁴ When Noah awoke from his wine, he knew what his youngest son had done to him.
²⁵ So he said, "Cursed be Canaan; A servant of servants He shall be to his brothers."
