KJV - Genesis 9:5

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.

I will require your blood for your life; from every animal, and from people, I will take the life of a person at the hands of their fellow person.
