rainbow

¹²And God said: “This is the sign of the pact that I grant between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations. ¹³I will place my arc in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the pact between myself and the earth.

¹And I saw another strong Angel, descending from heaven, clothed with a cloud. And a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was like the sun, and his feet were like columns of fire.

²⁸There was the appearance of the rainbow, as when it is in a cloud on a rainy day. This was the appearance of the splendor on every side.

³And the One who was sitting there was similar in appearance to a stone of jasper and sardius. And there was an iridescence surrounding the throne, in aspect similar to an emerald.

⁸To Noah and to his sons with him, God also said this: ⁹“Behold, I will establish my covenant with you, and with your offspring after you, ¹⁰and with every living soul that is with you: as much with the birds as with the cattle and all the animals of the earth that have gone forth from the ark, and with all the wild beasts of the earth. ¹¹I will establish my covenant with you, and no longer will all that is flesh be put to death by the waters of a great flood, and, henceforth, there will not be a great flood to utterly destroy the earth.” ¹²And God said: “This is the sign of the pact that I grant between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations. ¹³I will place my arc in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the pact between myself and the earth.

¹⁶And the arc will be in the clouds, and I will see it, and I will remember the everlasting covenant that was enacted between God and every living soul of all that is flesh upon the earth.”

¹³I will place my arc in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the pact between myself and the earth.

⁸In a moment of indignation, I have hidden my face from you, for a little while. But with everlasting mercy, I have taken pity on you, said your Redeemer, the Lord. ⁹For me, it is just as in the days of Noah, to whom I swore that I would no longer bring in the waters of Noah over the earth. Thus have I sworn not to be angry with you, and not to rebuke you. ¹⁰For the mountains will be moved, and the hills will tremble. But my mercy will not depart from you, and the covenant of my peace will not be shaken, said the Lord, who has compassion on you.

⁹And you shall know that the Lord your God himself is a strong and faithful God, preserving his covenant and his mercy for those who love him and those who keep his precepts for a thousand generations,

¹⁸For I consider that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with that future glory which shall be revealed in us.

¹³I will place my arc in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the pact between myself and the earth. ¹⁴And when I obscure the sky with clouds, my arc will appear in the clouds. ¹⁵And I will remember my covenant with you, and with every living soul that enlivens flesh. And there will no longer be waters from a great flood to wipe away all that is flesh. ¹⁶And the arc will be in the clouds, and I will see it, and I will remember the everlasting covenant that was enacted between God and every living soul of all that is flesh upon the earth.”

¹³I will place my arc in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the pact between myself and the earth. ¹⁴And when I obscure the sky with clouds, my arc will appear in the clouds.
