Genesis 9:17

God (Elohim) said to Noah, "This is the sign [the rainbow, which was probably visible to Noah just as God spoke these words] of the covenant that I establish between me and all life on earth."
[The rainbow has seven main colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. These colors appear when white sunlight is refracted by water droplets, which act as tiny prisms. Red (which has the longest wavelength) is always on the outside, and violet (which has the shortest wavelength) is always on the inside. The number seven represents perfection and completeness, see also Gen. 21:29–31; Rev 4:3.]
