1And GodH430 blessedH1288 NoahH5146 and his sonsH1121 and saidH559 to them, “1Be fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235, and fillH4390 the earthH776. 2The fearH4172 of you and the terrorH2844 of you will be on everyH3605 beastH2421 of the earthH776 and on everyH3605 birdH5775 of the 2skyH8064; with everythingH3605 that creepsH7430 on the groundH127, and allH3605 the fishH1709 of the seaH3220, into your handH3027 they are givenH5414. 3EveryH3605 movingH7431 thingH7431 that is aliveH2416 shall be foodH402 for you; I giveH5414 allH3605 to you, 3as I gave the greenH3418 plantH6212. 4OnlyH389 you shall not eatH398 fleshH1320 with its lifeH5315, that is, 4its bloodH1818. 5SurelyH389 I will requireH1875 5 6your lifebloodH1818 H5315; 7 8from everyH3605 beastH2421 I will requireH1875 it. And 9from every manH120, 10from everyH376 man’sH376 brotherH251 I will requireH1875 the lifeH5315 of manH120.6 11Whoever shedsH8210 man’sH120 bloodH1818, By manH120 his bloodH1818 shall be shedH8210, For 12in the imageH6754 of GodH430 He madeH6213 manH120.7As for you, 13be fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235; 14PopulateH8317 the earthH776 abundantlyH8317 and multiplyH7235 in it.”
