Genesis 4:8-13
8Cain 1talked to his brother Abel; and it happened that when they were in the field Cain rose up against his brother Abel and 2killed him.
9Then the Lord said to Cain, “3Where is Abel your brother?” And he said, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s keeper?” 10Then He said, “What have you done? 4The voice of your brother’s blood is crying out to Me from the ground. 11Now 5you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand. 126When you cultivate the ground, it will no longer yield its strength to you; 7you will be a wanderer and a drifter on the earth.” 13Cain said to the Lord, “My punishment is too great to endure!
