10 This includes the birds and the animals that came out of the boat.
11 I promise every living creature that the earth and those living on it will never again be destroyed by a flood.
12-13 The rainbow that I have put in the sky will be my sign to you and to every living creature on earth. It will remind you that I will keep this promise forever.
14 When I send clouds over the earth, and a rainbow appears in the sky,
15 I will remember my promise to you and to all other living creatures. Never again will I let floodwaters destroy all life.
16 When I see the rainbow in the sky, I will always remember the promise that I have made to every living creature.
17 The rainbow will be the sign of that solemn promise.
