26He also said,"Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the slave of Shem. 27May God extend the territory of Japheth; may Japheth live in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be his slave."
28 After the flood Noah lived 350 years. Altogether, Noah lived 950 years, and then he died.Originally posted 1/11/2006 @ 5:19 am
