And God said unto Noe: This is the sign of
the testament which I have made between me and all flesh that is
on the earth. The sons of Noe that came out of the ark were: Sem,
Ham, and Iapheth. And Ham he is the father of Canaan. These are
the three sons of Noe, and of these was all the world overspread.
And Noe being an husbandman, went forth and planted a vineyard,
and drank of the wine and was drunk, and lay uncovered in the
middest of his tent. And Ham the father of Canaan saw his father's
privates, {prevytees} and told his two brethren that were without.
And Sem and Iapheth took a mantle, and put it on both their
shoulders and went backward, and covered their father's secrets,
but their faces were backward, so that they saw not their father's
nakedness. As soon as Noe was awaked from his wine and wist what
his youngest son had done unto him, he said: Cursed be Canaan, and
a servant, of all servants be he to his brethren. And he said:
Blessed be the LORD God of Sem, and Canaan be his servant. God
increase Iapheth that he may dwell in the tents of Sem. And Canaan
be their servant. And Noe lived after the flood three hundred and
fifty years: So that all the days of Noe were nine hundred and
fifty years, and then he died.
