Genesis 9:2-5
2The fear of you and the terror of you will be on every animal of the earth and on every bird of the sky; on everything that crawls on the ground, and on all the fish of the sea. They are handed over to you.
3Every moving thing that is alive shall be food for you; I have given everything to you, 1as I gave the green plant.
4But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, 2its blood.
5I certainly will require 34your lifeblood; 56from every animal I will require it. And 7from every person, 8from every man as his brother I will require the life of a person.
