12 And God said: ^a“This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:  ‡

13 I set ^aMy rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.  ‡

15 and ^aI will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.  ‡

16 The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember ^athe everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”  ‡
