4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. |
5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man. |
6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man. |
7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein. |
8 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying, |
9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you; |
10 And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth. |
11 And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth. |
12 And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: |
13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. |
14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: |
15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. |
16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth. |
