Genesis 9:3-7
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.69Whoever sheds human blood, By man his blood shall be shed, For 10in the image of God He made mankind.7As for you, 11be fruitful and multiply; 12Populate the earth abundantly and multiply in it.”
