Genesis 9:1-17

ECB(i) 1
THE BOW COVENANT OF ELOHIM
And Elohim blesses Noach and his sons and says to them, Bear fruit and abound and fill the earth. 2 And the awesomeness of you and the terror of you becomes on every live being of the earth and on every flyer of the heavens, on all who creep on the soil and on all the fishes of the sea; into your hand they are given. 3 Every living creeper is for you; even as the green herb, I give you all. 4 Only flesh with the soul, which is the blood, eat not. 5 And surely I require the blood of your souls; at the hand of every live being I require and at the hand of humanity; at the hand of the brother of every man I require the soul of humanity. 6 Whoever pours human blood, thus be his blood poured by humanity: for he worked humanity in the image of Elohim. 7 And you, bear fruit and abound; teem in the earth and abound. 8 And Elohim says to Noach and to his sons with him, saying, 9 And I, behold, I raise my covenant with you and with your seed after you; 10 and with every living soul with you - of the flyers, of the animals and of every live being of the earth with you; from all who go from the ark to every live being of the earth: 11 and I raise my covenant with you; neither is all flesh cut off any more by the waters of a flood; nor is there any more a flood to ruin the earth. 12 And Elohim says, This is the sign of the covenant I set between me and between you and every living soul with you for eternal generations: 13 I give my bow in the cloud - a sign of a covenant between me and between the earth: 14 and so be it, when I overcloud a cloud over the earth, that the bow be seen in the cloud: 15 and I remember my covenant between me and between you and every living soul of all flesh; and the waters never again become a flood to ruin all flesh. 16 And the bow becomes in the cloud; and I see it: to remember the eternal covenant between Elohim and between every living soul of all flesh on the earth. 17 And Elohim says to Noach, This is the sign of the covenant, I raise between me and between all flesh on the earth.
