Genesis 9:12-17 ▼

12 And God {Elohim} said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between Me and you⁺ and every living creature with you⁺, a covenant for all generations to come:

13 I have set My rainbow in the clouds, and it will be a sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.

14 Whenever I form clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,

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

16 And whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God {Elohim} and every living creature of every kind that is on the earth.”

17 So God {Elohim} said to Noah (comfort), “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between Me and every creature on the earth.”
