From the Bible:Genesis 9:8- says: And God went on to say to Noah and to his sons with him: 9 "And as for me, here I am establishing my covenant with YOU men and with YOUR offspring after YOU, 10 and with every living soul that is with YOU, among fowls, among beasts and among all living creatures of the earth with YOU, from all those going out of the ark to every living creature of the earth. 11 Yes, I do establish my covenant with YOU: No more will all flesh be cut off by waters of a deluge, and no more will there occur a deluge to bring the earth to ruin.

Answer:

God actually made two covenants with Noah. One (Genesis 6:18) was to preserve him during the Flood, and the other (Genesis ch.9) was to refrain from sending another worldwide flood.

Note also that these covenants differed from the Covenants with Abraham (Genesis ch.15 and 17) in that Abraham's covenants included spiritual elements - a relationship with God; while the covenants of Noah were promises of God concerning physical matters.

God made two covenants with Noah (Genesis 6:18 and 9:9-17), just as He later did with Abraham (Genesis 15:18 and 17:2).

God's covenants with Noah were:

1) Genesis 6:18 - That he would survive until the Flood (Rashi commentary) and through the Flood.

2) Genesis 9:9-17) - That God would not again destroy the Earth with a Flood.

After the Flood, God made a covenant with Noah (Genesis ch.9) that He would refrain from sending another worldwide flood.
Note that this covenant differed from the Covenants with Abraham (Genesis ch.15 and 17) in that Abraham's covenants included spiritual elements (a relationship with God), while the covenant of Noah was a promise concerning physical matters.

How is God's covenant with Noah different from his covenant with Abraham?

The story of Noah is a creation story and its purpose was to help explain where we came from and why things are the way they are. In this story, God made a great flood that covered the whole earth but, after the flood subsided, made a covenant with Noah that he would never again send a flood to destroy humanity. The sign of his covenant was the rainbow.The story of Abraham, in the form we have today, was a story of the Hebrew people. Its purpose was to help explain where the people came from and why they lived in the land of Israel. The covenant had two important parts: to make Abraham the father of many nations and to make him the father of a great nation. As an Israelite legend, this meant that the great nation would be Israel. Thus the Israelites learnt that they were descended from a great leader who had come from Ur of the Chaldees to live in the Promised Land, but not yet to settle and own it to the exclusion of others. The sign of God's covenant would be the circumcision of all Abraham's male descendants.
