Genesis 4:1-3

1And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from Yhwh.1

2And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.23

3And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto Yhwh.4
