2. The fear and terror of you will be in every living creature on the earth, every bird of the sky, every creature that crawls on the ground, and all the fish of the sea. They are placed under your authority.
3. Every living creature will be food for you; as I gave the green plants, I have given you everything.
4. However, you must not eat meat with its lifeblood in it.
5. I will require the life of every animal and every man for your life and your blood. I will require the life of each man’s brother for a man’s life.
