Genesis 9:4-6
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

4 But you shall not eat flesh with the life of it, which is its blood.

5 And surely for your lifeblood I will require an accounting; from every beast I will require it; and from man, from every man [who spills another’s lifeblood] I will require a reckoning.

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