Genesis 4:5-12

5but he did not have regard for Cain and his offering. Cain was furious, and he looked despondent.

6Then the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you furious? And why do you look despondent?

7If you do what is right, won’t you be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must rule over it.”

8Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let’s go out to the field.” And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.

9Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I don’t know,” he replied. “Am I my brother’s guardian?”

10Then he said, “What have you done? Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground!

11So now you are cursed, alienated from the ground that opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood you have shed.

12If you work the ground, it will never again give you its yield. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth.”
