Genesis 9:19 in context

The verses around it, from Genesis 9.

15 I will remember My covenant between Me and you and every living creature of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.

16 And whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of every kind that is on the earth.”

17 So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between Me and every creature on the earth.”

18 The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.

19 These three were the sons of Noah, and from them the whole earth was populated.

20 Now Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard.

21 But when he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and uncovered himself inside his tent.

22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father’s nakedness and told his two brothers outside.

23 Then Shem and Japheth took a garment and placed it across their shoulders, and walking backward, they covered their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned away so that they did not see their father’s nakedness.
