And Noahbegan to be an husbandman , and he planted a vineyard:21
And he drank of the wine, and was drunken ; and he was uncoveredwithin his tent.22
And Ham, the father of Canaan,saw the nakedness of his father, and told his twobrethrenwithout.23
And Shem and Japhethtook a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and wentbackward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father'snakedness.24
