Genesis 9:6

God's Covenant With Noah

⁵ For surely your blood which is your souls I will require; at the hand of every animal I will require it and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother I will require the soul (or life) of man. ⁶ “Whoever sheds man’s blood,
By man his blood shall be shed,
For in the image of God
He made man.
⁷ And you, be ye fruitful and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth and multiply therein.
