Genesis 9:4-6
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
4 Only, you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. 5 For your own lifeblood I will surely require a reckoning: from every animal I will require it and from human beings, each one for the blood of another, I will require a reckoning for human life.
6 Whoever sheds the blood of a human,
by a human shall that person’s blood be shed;
for in his own image
God made humankind.
Genesis 9:4-6
New International Version
4 “But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it.(A) 5 And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting.(B) I will demand an accounting from every animal.(C) And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being.(D)
Genesis 9:4-6
King James Version
4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.
6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
