1 And God blessed Noah and his sons and said unto them, Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.
2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every animal of the earth and upon every fowl of the heavens, upon all that moves upon the earth and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand they are delivered.
3 Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you; even as the green grass I have given you all things.
4 But flesh with the soul (or life) thereof, which is its blood, ye shall not eat.
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 in man, his blood shall be shed; for in the image of God is man made.
7 And you, be ye fruitful and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth and multiply therein.
