Genesis 9:8-17

Revised Geneva Translation

⁸ Also, God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,

⁹ “Behold, I, even I, establish My Covenant with you, and with your seed after you,

¹⁰ “and with every living creature that is with you — with the fowl, with the cattle, and with every beast of the Earth with you — from all that go out of the Ark, to every beast of the Earth.

¹¹ “And I will establish My Covenant with you, so that from henceforth all flesh shall not be rooted out by the waters of the Flood; nor shall there be a Flood to destroy the Earth anymore.”

¹² Then God said, “This is the sign of the Covenant which I make between Me and you, and between every living thing that is with you, to perpetual generations.

¹³ “I have set My bow in the cloud; and it shall be for a sign of the Covenant between the Earth and Myself.

¹⁴ “And when I shall cover the Earth with a cloud, and the bow shall be seen in the cloud,

¹⁵ “then I will remember My Covenant which is between Me and you, and between every living thing in all flesh. And there shall be no more waters of a Flood to destroy all flesh.

¹⁶ “Therefore, the bow shall be in the cloud, so that I may see it and remember the everlasting Covenant between God and every living thing, in all flesh that is upon the Earth.”

¹⁷ God also said to Noah, “This is the sign of the Covenant which I have established between all flesh that is upon the Earth and Myself.”
