But he did not 7 curse Ham, but only his son, for God had blessed the sons of Noah. And in the tents of Shem he may dwell. He gave the land to Abraham, his beloved... Hebrew text (Ham's and Canaan's name are in bold): תםיםה ויקץ ןוח םייןו וידע את אשר עשה(6) לו בנו הכתו ויומר ארור כנעו עבד עודים יהייה לוחיו ולוא(7) קלל את חם כי אם בני כי ברד אל את בני נוח ובאהלי שם ישכיו (5)
