Genesis 9:1-7
1Then GodH430 blessedH1288 NoahH5146 and his sonsH1121, and saidH559 to them, “1BeH6509 fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235, and fillH4390 the earthH776. 2The fearH4172 of you and the terrorH2844 of you will be on everyH3605 animalH2421 of the earthH776 and on everyH3605 birdH5775 of the skyH8064; on everythingH3605 that crawlsH7430 on the groundH127, and on allH3605 the fishH1709 of the seaH3220. They are handedH5414H3027 overH5414 to you. 3EveryH3605 movingH7431 thingH7431 that is aliveH2416 shall be foodH402 for you; I have givenH5414 everythingH3605 to you, 2as I gave the greenH3418 plantH6212. 4ButH389 you shall not eatH398 fleshH1320 with its lifeH5315, that is, 3its bloodH1818. 5I certainlyH389 will requireH1875 45your lifebloodH1818H5315; 67from everyH3605 animalH2421 I will requireH1875 it. And 8from every personH120, 9from everyH376 manH376 as his brotherH251 I will requireH1875 the lifeH5315 of a personH120.610Whoever shedsH8210 humanH120 bloodH1818, By manH120 his bloodH1818 shall be shedH8210, For 11in the imageH6754 of GodH430 He madeH6213 mankindH120.7As for you, 12beH6509 fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235; 13PopulateH8317 the earthH776 abundantlyH8317 and multiplyH7235 in it.”
