Genesis 9:3-5

The Voice

³ Every living thing that moves will be available to you as food. Just as I once gave you the green plants to eat, I now give you everything. ⁴ But listen carefully: Do not eat any meat with its life-blood still in it. ⁵ More than that, do not spill the blood of any human. If anyone spills your blood, I will hold him responsible. It makes no difference whether it is a man or an animal, both will be accountable to Me! If someone murders a fellow human being, then I will require his life in return.
