Genesis 4:13-15

13But CainH7014 saidH559 toH413 the LORDH3068, “My punishmentH57711 is greaterH1419 than I can bearH5375. 14BeholdH2005, thisH853 dayH3117 You have driven meH1644 from the faceH6440 of the earthH127, and fromH5921 Your faceH6440 I will be hiddenH5641; I will beH1961 a fugitiveH5128 and a wandererH5110 on the earthH776, andH1961 whoeverH3605 finds meH4672 will kill meH2026.”

15“Not soH3651!”2 repliedH559 the LORDH3068. “If anyoneH3605 slaysH2026 CainH7014, then Cain will be avengedH5358 sevenfoldH7659.” And the LORDH3068 placedH7760 a markH226 on CainH7014, so that no oneH1115H3605 who found himH4672 would killH5221 himH853.
