Genesis 4:2-11
2And she further boreH3205 his brotherH251 AbelH1893. And AbelH1893 wasH1961 a shepherdH7462, but CainH7014 wasH1961 a husbandman.
3And in process of time it cameH935 to pass that CainH7014 broughtH935 of the fruitH6529 of the groundH127 an offeringH4503 to Jehovah.
4And AbelH1893, he alsoH1571 broughtH935 of the firstlings of his flockH6629, and of their fatH2459. And Jehovah lookedH8159 upon AbelH1893, and on his offeringH4503;
5and upon CainH7014, and on his offeringH4503, he did not lookH8159. And CainH7014 was veryH3966 angryH2734, and his countenance fellH5307.
6And Jehovah saidH559 to CainH7014, WhyH4100 art thou angryH2734, and whyH4100 is thy countenance fallenH5307?
7If thou doest wellH3190, will not [thy countenance] look up [with confidence]? and if thou doest not wellH3190, sinH2403 lieth at the doorH6607; and unto thee [shall be] his desireH8669, and thou shalt ruleH4910 over him.
8And CainH7014 spoke to AbelH1893 his brotherH251, and it came to pass when they wereH1961 in the fieldH7704, that CainH7014 roseH6965 up against AbelH1893 his brotherH251, and slewH2026 him.
9And Jehovah saidH559 to CainH7014, WhereH335 is AbelH1893 thy brotherH251? And he saidH559, I knowH3045 not: am I my brother's keeperH8104?
10And he saidH559, What hast thou done? the voiceH6963 of thy brother's bloodH1818 is cryingH6817 to me from the groundH127.
11And nowH6258 be thou cursedH779 from the groundH127, which hath openedH6475 its mouthH6310 to receiveH3947 thy brother's bloodH1818 from thy handH3027.
