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.
16. The rainbow will appear in the cloud, and I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”
17. So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.”
18. The sons of Noah who went forth from the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham was the father of Canaan.
19. These were the three sons of Noah, and from them the whole earth was populated.
