Genesis 9:12-17 ▼

12 And God said, |This is the guarantee of the covenant I am making with you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all subsequent generations:

13 I will place my rainbow in the clouds, and it will become a guarantee of the covenant between me and the earth.

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

15 then I will remember my covenant with you and with all living creatures of all kinds. Never again will the waters become a flood and destroy all living things.

16 When the rainbow is in the clouds, I will notice it and remember the perpetual covenant between God and all living creatures of all kinds that are on the earth.|

17 So God said to Noah, |This is the guarantee of the covenant that I am confirming between me and all living things that are on the earth.|
