English Standard Version
Genesis 9:1-7
1And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.
2The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth and upon every bird of the heavens, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea. Into your hand they are delivered.
3Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.
4But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.
5And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: from every beast I will require it and from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man.
6"Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image.
7And you, be fruitful and multiply, increase greatly on the earth and multiply in it."
