| Ge 4:1 | C D S T R K | Now the man had relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain, and she said, "I have gotten a manchild with the help of the LORD." |
| Ge 4:2 | C D S T R K | Again, she gave birth to his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of flocks, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. |
| Ge 4:3 | C D S T R K | So it came about in the course of time that Cain brought an offering to the LORD of the fruit of the ground. |
| Ge 4:4 | C D S T R K | Abel, on his part also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of their fat portions. And the LORD had regard for Abel and for his offering; |
| Ge 4:5 | C D S T R | but for Cain and for his offering He had no regard. So Cain became very angry and his countenance fell. |
| Ge 4:6 | C D S T R | Then the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? |
| Ge 4:7 | C D S T R K | "If you do well, will not your countenance be lifted up? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door; and its desire is for you, but you must master it." |
| Ge 4:8 | C D S T R K | Cain told Abel his brother. And it came about when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him. |
| Ge 4:9 | C D S T R | Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?" And he said, "I do not know. Am I my brother's keeper?" |
| Ge 4:10 | C D S T R | He said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to Me from the ground. |
| Ge 4:11 | C D S T R | "Now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. |
| Ge 4:12 | C D S T R | "When you cultivate the ground, it will no longer yield its strength to you; you will be a vagrant and a wanderer on the earth." |
| Ge 4:13 | C D S T R | Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is too great to bear! |
| Ge 4:14 | C D S T R | "Behold, You have driven me this day from the face of the ground; and from Your face I will be hidden, and I will be a vagrant and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me." |
| Ge 4:15 | C D S T R K | So the LORD said to him, "Therefore whoever kills Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold." And the LORD appointed a sign for Cain, so that no one finding him would slay him. |
| Ge 4:16 | C D S T R K | Then Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden. |
| Ge 4:17 | C D S T R K | Cain had relations with his wife and she conceived, and gave birth to Enoch; and he built a city, and called the name of the city Enoch, after the name of his son. |
| Ge 4:18 | C D S T R | Now to Enoch was born Irad, and Irad became the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael became the father of Methushael, and Methushael became the father of Lamech. |
| Ge 4:19 | C D S T R | Lamech took to himself two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other, Zillah. |
| Ge 4:20 | C D S T R | Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock. |
| Ge 4:21 | C D S T R | His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe. |
| Ge 4:22 | C D S T R | As for Zillah, she also gave birth to Tubal-cain, the forger of all implements of bronze and iron; and the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah. |
| Ge 4:23 | C D S T R | Lamech said to his wives, "Adah and Zillah, Listen to my voice, You wives of Lamech, Give heed to my speech, For I have killed a man for wounding me; And a boy for striking me; |
| Ge 4:24 | C D S T R | If Cain is avenged sevenfold, Then Lamech seventy-sevenfold." |
| Ge 4:25 | C D S T R K | Adam had relations with his wife again; and she gave birth to a son, and named him Seth, for, she said, "God has appointed me another offspring in place of Abel, for Cain killed him." |
| Ge 4:26 | C D S T R K | To Seth, to him also a son was born; and he called his name Enosh. Then men began to call upon the name of the LORD. |
