And surely your blood of your lives will I require. At the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man’s brother will I require the life of man.

Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God made He man.

And you, be ye fruitful and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.”

(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.”
