New Living Translation (NLT)
Genesis 9
20 After the flood, Noah began to cultivate the ground, and he planted a vineyard.
21 One day he drank some wine he had made, and he became drunk and lay naked inside his tent.
22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw that his father was naked and went outside and told his brothers.
23 Then Shem and Japheth took a robe, held it over their shoulders, and backed into the tent to cover their father. As they did this, they looked the other way so they would not see him naked.
24 When Noah woke up from his stupor, he learned what Ham, his youngest son, had done.
25 Then he cursed Canaan, the son of Ham: “May Canaan be cursed! May he be the lowest of servants to his relatives.”
26 Then Noah said, “May the LORD, the God of Shem, be blessed, and may Canaan be his servant!
27 May God expand the territory of Japheth! May Japheth share the prosperity of Shem, and may Canaan be his servant.”
28 Noah lived another 350 years after the great flood.
29 He lived 950 years, and then he died.
Genesis 10
1 This is the account of the families of Shem, Ham, and Japheth, the three sons of Noah. Many children were born to them after the great flood.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
