9:20 Noah, a man of the soil, ¹  began to plant a vineyard. ²  9:21 When he drank some of the wine, he got drunk and uncovered himself ³  inside his tent. 9:22 Ham, the father of Canaan, ⁴  saw his father’s nakedness ⁵  and told his two brothers who were outside. 9:23 Shem and Japheth took the garment ⁶  and placed it on their shoulders. Then they walked in backwards and covered up their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned ⁷  the other way so they did not see their father’s nakedness.
