Ge 9:25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.

 26 And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.

 27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.

In short the descendants of Ham, or later known as Canaan, were removed from the Land so that God’s promise Would be carried out. The descendants of Shem, the Children of Israel, would rule the land, and the children of Ham (Canaan)  would be their servants.

 

 Le 25:38 I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.

Ge 9:27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
