  1. 8:20

    Then Noah built an altar to the LORD. And taking from every kind of clean animal and clean bird, he offered burnt offerings on the altar.

  2. 8:21

    When the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.

  3. 8:22

    As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall never cease.”

  4. 9:1

    And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.

  5. 9:2

    The fear and dread of you will fall on every living creature on the earth, every bird of the air, every creature that crawls on the ground, and all the fish of the sea. They are delivered into your hand.

  6. 9:3

    Everything that lives and moves will be food for you; just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you all things.

  7. 9:4

    But you must not eat meat with its lifeblood still in it.

  8. 9:5

    And surely I will require the life of any man or beast by whose hand your lifeblood is shed. I will demand an accounting from anyone who takes the life of his fellow man:

  9. 9:6

    Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man his blood will be shed; for in His own image God has made mankind.

  10. 9:7

    But as for you, be fruitful and multiply; spread out across the earth and multiply upon it.”

  11. 9:8

    Then God said to Noah and his sons with him,

  12. 9:9

    “Behold, I now establish My covenant with you and your descendants after you,

  13. 9:10

    and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock, and every beast of the earth—every living thing that came out of the ark.

  14. 9:11

    And I establish My covenant with you: Never again will all life be cut off by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth.”

  15. 9:12

    And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between Me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come:

  16. 9:13

    I have set My rainbow in the clouds, and it will be a sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.

  17. 9:14

    Whenever I form clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,

  18. 9:15

    I will remember My covenant between Me and you and every living creature of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.

  19. 9:16

    And whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of every kind that is on the earth.”

  20. 9:17

    So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between Me and every creature on the earth.”
