Genesis 4:11-14
11And now art thou cursedH779 from the earthH127, which hath openedH6475 her mouthH6310 to receiveH3947 thy brother’sH251 bloodH1818 from thy handH3027;
12WhenH3588 thou tillestH5647 the groundH127, it shall not henceforthH3254 yieldH5414 unto thee her strengthH3581; a fugitiveH5128 and a vagabondH5110 shalt thou be in the earthH776.
13And CainH7014 saidH559 unto YhwhH3068, My punishmentH5771 is greaterH1419 than I can bearH5375.1
14Behold, thou hast driven me outH1644 this dayH3117 from the faceH6440 of the earthH127; and fromH5921 thy faceH6440 shall I be hidH5641; and I shall be a fugitiveH5128 and a vagabondH5110 in the earthH776; and it shall come to passH1961, that every one that findeth meH4672 shall slay meH2026.
