Genesis 9:3-7
3Every moving thing that is alive shall be food for you; I give all to you, 1as I gave the green plant. 4Only you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, 2its blood. 5Surely I will require 34your lifeblood; 56from every beast I will require it. And 7from every man, 8from every man’s brother I will require the life of man.69Whoever sheds man’s blood, By man his blood shall be shed, For 10in the image of God He made man.7As for you, 11be fruitful and multiply; 12Populate the earth abundantly and multiply in it.”
