Bible: 1 Corinthians 7:9; 9:24-27

7:9 But if they do not have self-control, let them get married. For it is better to marry than to burn with sexual desire. 1 

9:24 When Noah awoke from his drunken stupor 1  he learned 2  what his youngest son had done 3  to him. 9:25 So he said,

Cursed 4  be Canaan! 5 

The lowest of slaves 6 

he will be to his brothers.”

9:26 He also said,

Worthy of praise is 7  the Lord, the God of Shem!

May Canaan be the slave of Shem! 8 

9:27 May God enlarge Japheth’s territory and numbers! 9 

May he live 10  in the tents of Shem

and may Canaan be his slave!
