God’s Covenant with Noah
Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him, “As for me,
I am establishing my covenant with you and your
descendants after you, and with every living creature that is
with you, the birds, the domestic animals, and every animal
of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark. I
establish my covenant with you, that never again shall all
flesh be cut off by the waters of a flood, and never again
shall there be a flood to destroy the earth.”
