20 And Noah began to farm and cultivate the ground and he planted a vineyard.
21 He drank some of the wine and became drunk, and he was uncovered and lay exposed inside his tent.
22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw [by accident] the nakedness of his father, and [to his father’s shame] told his two brothers outside.
23 So Shem and Japheth took a robe and put it on both their shoulders, and walked backwards and covered the nakedness of their father; their faces were turned away so that they did not see their father’s nakedness.
24 When Noah awoke from his wine [induced stupor], he knew what his younger son [Ham] had done to him.
25 So he said, “Cursed be Canaan [the son of Ham]; A servant of servants He shall be to his brothers.” [Deut 27:16]
26 He also said, “Blessed be the Lord, The God of Shem; And let Canaan be his servant.
27 “May God enlarge [the land of] Japheth, And let him dwell in the tents of Shem; And let Canaan be his servant.”
Le premier signe d'alliance L'arc-en-ciel apparaît pour la première fois dans la Bible comme un signe d'alliance : Dieu le place dans le ciel après le déluge pour promettre qu'il ne détruira plus jamais la terre par les eaux (Genèse 9:13-15).
