  1. Some Python distributions may not come with pip installed. Try

    python3.9 -m ensurepip
    

    to install pip for your interpreter first.

  2. Adding on @Selcuk ‘s answer, you can define which python version runs pip:

    For example:

    /path/to/python3.9/python -m pip install mypackage
    

    This would install mypackage for the python version you referenced to.

    Another suggestion is to use Conda, which handles different python versions pretty effectively.
