And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: (A)from every beast I will require it and (B)from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man.

(C)“Whoever sheds the blood of man,
    by man shall his blood be shed,
(D)for God made man in his own image.

And you,[a] be fruitful and multiply, increase greatly on the earth and multiply in it.”
