Genesis 4:11-14

11NowH6258 1you are cursedH779 from the groundH127, whichH834 has openedH6475 its mouthH6310 to receiveH3947 your brother’sH251 bloodH1818 from your handH3027.

122WhenH3588 you cultivateH5647 the groundH127, it will noH3808 longerH3254 yieldH5414 its strengthH3581 to you; 3you will be a wandererH5128 and a drifterH5110 on the earthH776.”

13CainH7014 saidH559 to the LordH3068, “My punishmentH5771 is tooH4480 greatH1419 to endureH5375!

14BeholdH2005, You have 4drivenH1644 me this dayH3117 from the faceH6440 of the groundH127; and I will be hiddenH5641 from Your faceH6440, and 5I will be a wandererH5128 and a drifterH5110 on the earthH776, and 6whoeverH3605 findsH4672 me will killH2026 me.”
