Genesis 4:4-7
41AbelH1893, on his partH1571 alsoH1571 broughtH935 an offering, from the firstbornH1060 of his flockH6629 and from their fatH2459 portionsH2459. And 2the LordH3068 hadH8159 regardH8159 for AbelH1893 and his offeringH4503;
5but 3for CainH7014 and his offeringH4503 He hadH8159 noH3808 regardH8159. So 4CainH7014 becameH2734 veryH3966 angryH2734 and his faceH6440 5wasH5307 gloomyH5307.
6Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to CainH7014, “6WhyH4100 areH2734 you angryH2734? And whyH4100 isH5307 your faceH6440 7gloomyH5307?
78IfH518 you doH3190 wellH3190, 9will your face not be 10cheerfulH7613? 11And ifH518 you do not doH3190 wellH3190, sinH2403 is lurkingH7257 at the doorH6607; and its desireH8669 is for you, 12but you must masterH4910 it.”
