Genesis 9:8-17

8Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,

9“Now I, behold, I am about to establish My covenant with you, and with your seed after you,

10and with every living creature that is with you, including the flying creatures, the livestock, and every wild animal with you, of all that is coming out of the ark—every animal of the earth.

11I will confirm My covenant with you—never again will all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood, and never again will there be a flood to ruin the land.”

12Then God said, “This is the sign of the covenant that I am making between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you for all future generations.

13My rainbow do I place in the cloud, and it will be a sign of the covenant between Me and the land.

14Whenever I bring clouds over the land and the rainbow appears in the clouds,

15I will remember My covenant that is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all flesh.

16When the rainbow is in the cloud, I will look at it, to remember the perpetual covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the land.”

17Then God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have confirmed between Me and all flesh that is on the land.”
