14 Whenever I form clouds over the earth and the bow appears in the clouds,
15 I will remember My covenant between Me and you and all the living creatures: water will never again become a flood to destroy every creature.
16 The bow will be in the clouds, and I will look at it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all the living creatures on earth.”
17 God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have confirmed between Me and every creature on earth.”
18 Noah’s sons who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham was the father of Canaan.
19 These three were Noah’s sons, and from them the whole earth was populated.
20 Noah, a man of the soil, was the first to plant a vineyard.
