# General Information:

In verses 25-27 Noah pronounced a curse on Ham's son and blessings on Ham's brothers. What Noah said about them also applied to their descendants, as shown in the UDB. Some translations set each line of poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to make it easier to read. The ULB does this with the poetry in Noah's curse and blessings in verses 25-27.
