The sons of Noah who came out of the boat with
their father were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Ham
is the father of Canaan.) 19 From these three sons
of Noah came all the people who now populate
the earth.
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 Ca naan, 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:
18
“May Canaan be cursed!
May he be the lowest of servants to his
relatives.”

28 Noah lived another 350 years after the great
flood. 29 He lived 950 years, and then he died.
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.

who was the first heroic warrior on earth.

world,* his name became proverbial. People
would say, “This man is like Nimrod, the
greatest hunter in the world.” 10 He built his
kingdom in the land of Babylonia,* with the
cities of Babylon, Erech, Akkad, and Calneh.
11 From there he expanded his territory to
Assyria,* building the cities of Nineveh,
Rehoboth-ir, Calah, 12 and Resen (the great
city located between Nineveh and Calah).
13 Mizraim was the ancestor of the Ludites,
Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites,

hands. For God made human beings* in his own
image. 7Now be fruitful and multiply, and repopulate the earth.”
8 Then God told Noah and his sons, 9 “I hereby
confirm my covenant with you and your descendants, 10 and with all the animals that were
on the boat with you—the birds, the livestock,
and all the wild animals—every living creature
on earth. 11 Yes, I am confirming my covenant
with you. Never again will floodwaters kill all
living creatures; never again will a flood destroy
the earth.”
12 Then God said, “I am giving you a sign of my
covenant with you and with all living creatures,
for all generations to come. 13 I have placed my
rainbow in the clouds. It is the sign of my covenant with you and with all the earth. 14 When
I send clouds over the earth, the rainbow will
appear in the clouds, 15 and I will remember my
covenant with you and with all living creatures.
Never again will the floodwaters destroy all life.
16 When I see the rainbow in the clouds, I will remember the eternal covenant between God and
every living creature on earth.” 17 Then God said
to Noah, “Yes, this rainbow is the sign of the covenant I am confirming with all the creatures on
earth.”
