13. I am putting my bow in the clouds. It will be the sign of my covenant with the world.
14. Whenever I cover the sky with clouds and the rainbow appears,
15. I will remember my promise to you and to all the animals that a flood will never again destroy all living beings.
16. When the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between me and all living beings on earth.
17. That is the sign of the promise which I am making to all living beings.”
18. The sons of Noah who went out of the boat were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.)
