Genesis 4:5-7

5but 1for CainH7014 and for his offeringH4503 He hadH8159 noH3808 regardH8159. So 2CainH7014 becameH2734 veryH3966 angryH2734 and his countenanceH6440 fellH5307.

6Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to CainH7014, “3WhyH4100 are you angryH2734? And whyH4100 has your countenanceH6440 fallenH5307?

74IfH518 you doH3190 wellH3190, 5will not your countenance be liftedH7613 up? 6And ifH518 you do not doH3190 wellH3190, sinH2403 is crouchingH7257 at the doorH6607; and its desireH8669 is for you, 7but you must masterH4910 it.”
