Genesis 9:12-16

12Then God said, ‘I will show you clearly that I have made this covenant with you, and with every living animal. I will keep this promise for ever, for as long as people live on the earth.

13I have put my rainbow among the clouds in the sky. It will show you clearly that I have made this covenant with everything on the earth.

14When I bring clouds over the earth, a rainbow will sometimes appear.

15Then I will remember the covenant that I have made with you and with all the different kinds of living things. Never again will the water become so deep that it destroys everything that lives.

16When I see the rainbow in the clouds, I will remember my covenant. It is a promise that I have made with every kind of living thing on the earth.’
