5. Surely your lifeblood will I avenge. From every animal and from every person will I avenge it. From every person’s brother will I avenge that person’s life.
6. The one who sheds human blood, by a human will his blood be shed, for in God’s image He made humanity.
7. But as for you, be fruitful and multiply! Flourish in the land and multiply in it.”
8. Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
9. “Now I, behold, I am about to establish My covenant with you, and with your seed after you,
10. and with every living creature that is with you, including the flying creatures, the livestock, and every wild animal with you, of all that is coming out of the ark—every animal of the earth.
11. I will confirm My covenant with you—never again will all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood, and never again will there be a flood to ruin the land.”
12. Then God said, “This is the sign of the covenant that I am making between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you for all future generations.
13. My rainbow do I place in the cloud, and it will be a sign of the covenant between Me and the land.
