Genesis 9:9–16

⁹“And as for Me, ^mbehold, I establish ⁿMy covenant with you and with your ¹descendants after you, ^10oand with every living creature that is with you: the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ark, every beast of the earth. ¹¹Thus ^pI establish My covenant with you: Never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood; never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth.”

¹²And God said: ^q“This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: ¹³I set ^rMy rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. ¹⁴It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; ¹⁵and ^sI will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. ¹⁶The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember ^tthe everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”
