6. Whoever sheds the blood of man,by man shall his blood be shed;for God made manin His own image.
7. And as for you, be fruitful and multiply; increase abundantly in the earth and multiply in it.”
8. Again God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
9. “As for Me, I establish My covenant with you, and with your descendants after you;
10. and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the livestock, and every beast of the earth with you; of all that comes out of the ark, every beast of the earth.
11. I establish My covenant with you. Never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of a flood. Never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth.”
12. Then God said, “This is the sign of the covenant which I am making between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations.
13. I have set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of a covenant between Me and the earth.
14. When I bring a cloud over the earth, the rainbow will be seen in the cloud;
15. then I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters will never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.
