Genesis 9:17

But I will establish my covenant with you. You shall come into the ship, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives with you.

You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you.

I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”
