Genesis 9:4-6

4But you shall not eat flesh with its alife, that is, its blood. 5And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: bfrom every beast I will require it and cfrom man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man.

6 d“Whoever sheds the blood of man,
by man shall his blood be shed,
efor God made man in his own image.
