Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

May God enlarge Japheth’s territory and numbers! May he live in the tents of Shem and may Canaan be his slave!”

This is the account of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.

The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

And sons were also born to Shem (the older brother of Japheth), the father of all the sons of Eber.

After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

On that very day Noah entered the ark, accompanied by his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, along with his wife and his sons’ three wives.

The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Now Ham was the father of Canaan.)

Shem and Japheth took the garment and placed it on their shoulders. Then they walked in backwards and covered up their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned the other way so they did not see their father’s nakedness.
