Genesis 9:3-5
Lexham English Bible

3 Every moving thing that lives shall be for you as food. As I gave the green plants to you, I have now given you everything. 4 Only you shall not eat raw flesh with blood in it.[a] 5 And[b] your lifeblood[c] I will require; from every animal[d] I will require it. And from the hand of humankind, from the hand of each man to his brother I will require the life of humankind.
