Genesis 9:8-17 - God's Promise - The Sign Of The Rainbow
8 And God said to Noah and to his sons with him, 9 "As for me, behold, I am establishing my covenant with you and with your seed after you, 10 and with every living creature that [is] with you--the birds, the animals, and every animal of the earth with you, from all [that] came out of the ark to all the animals of the earth. 11 I am establishing my covenant with you, that never again will all flesh be cut off by the waters of a flood, nor will there ever be a flood that destroys the earth."
12 And God said, "This [is] the sign of the covenant that I am making between me and you, and between every living creature that [is] with you for future generations. 13 My bow I have set in the clouds, and it shall be for a sign of [the] covenant between me and between the earth. 14 And when I make clouds appear over the earth the bow shall be seen in the clouds. 15 Then I will remember my covenant that [is] between me and you, and between every living creature, with all flesh. And the waters of a flood will never again {cause the destruction} of all flesh. 16 The bow shall be in the clouds, and I will see it, so as to remember [the] everlasting covenant between God and between every living creature, with all flesh that [is] upon the earth." 17 And God said to Noah, "This [is] the sign of the covenant which I am establishing between me and all flesh that [is] upon the earth.
