19 Estos tres son los hijos de Noé; y de ellos fué llena toda la tierra.

20 Y comenzó Noé á labrar la tierra, y plantó una viña:

21 Y bebió del vino, y se embriagó, y estaba descubierto en medio de su tienda.

22 Y Châm, padre de Canaán, vió la desnudez de su padre, y díjolo á sus dos hermanos á la parte de afuera.

23 Entonces Sem y Japhet tomaron la ropa, y la pusieron sobre sus propios hombros, y andando hacia atrás, cubrieron la desnudez de su padre, teniendo vueltos sus rostros, y así no vieron la desnudez de su padre.
