Bereshis 9:7-15 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

7. And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly on ha'aretz, and multiply therein.

8. And Elohim spoke unto Noach, and to his banim with him, saying,

9. And I, hineni, I establish My brit (covenant) with you, and with your zera after you;

10. And with kol nefesh that is with you, of the bird, of the behemah, and of every animal of ha'aretz with you; from kol yotzei hatevah (all that go out of the ark), to every creature of ha'aretz.

11. And I will establish My brit (covenant) with you, neither shall kol basar yikaret (be cut off, violently killed) any more by the waters of the mabbul; neither shall there be any more mabbul l'shachat (to destroy) ha'aretz.

12. And Elohim said, This is the ot (sign) of the brit (covenant) which I make between Me and you and every nefesh chayyah (living creature) that is with you, for dorot olam (perpetual generations);

13. I do set My keshet (bow) in the anan (cloud), and it shall be for an ot brit between Me and ha'aretz.

14. And it shall come to pass, when I bring an anan over ha'aretz, that the keshet be'anan (rainbow) shall be seen;

15. And I will remember My brit, which is between Me and you and kol nefesh chayyah of kol basar; and the waters shall no more become a mabbul (flood) l'shachat (to destroy) kol basar.
