Genesis 4
1 And Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and brought forth Cain and said, I have gained a man through God.
And Man knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bore Cain, and said, I have acquired a man with Jehovah.
2 And she again bore his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
And she further bore his brother Abel. And Abel was a shepherd, but Cain was a husbandman.
3 And it was so after some time that Cain brought of the fruits of the earth a sacrifice to the Lord.
And in process of time it came to pass that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering to Jehovah.
4 And Abel also brought of the first born of his sheep and of his fatlings, and God looked upon Abel and his gifts,
And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock, and of their fat. And Jehovah looked upon Abel, and on his offering;
5 but Cain and his sacrifices he regarded not, and Cain was exceedingly sorrowful and his countenance fell.
and upon Cain, and on his offering, he did not look. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell.
6 And the Lord God said to Cain, Why are you become very sorrowful and why is your countenance fallen?
And Jehovah said to Cain, Why art thou angry, and why is thy countenance fallen?
7 Hast you not sinned if you have brought it rightly, but not rightly divided it? be still, to you shall be his submission, and you shall rule over him.
If thou doest well, will not [thy countenance] look up [with confidence]? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door; and unto thee [shall be] his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
8 And Cain said to Abel his brother, Let us go out into the plain; and it came to pass that when they were in the plain Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and killed him.
And Cain spoke to Abel his brother, and it came to pass when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
9 And the Lord God said to Cain, Where is Abel your brother? and he said, I know not, am I my brother's keeper?
And Jehovah said to Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: am I my brother's keeper?
10 And the Lord said, What have you done? the voice of your brother's blood cries to me out of the ground.
And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood is crying to me from the ground.
11 And now you [are] cursed from the earth which has opened her mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.
And now be thou cursed from the ground, which hath opened its mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand.
12 When you till the earth, then it shall not continue to give its strength to you: you shall be groaning and trembling on the earth.
When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield thee its strength; a wanderer and fugitive shalt thou be on the earth.
13 And Cain said to the Lord God, My crime [is] too great for me to be forgiven.
And Cain said to Jehovah, My punishment is too great to be borne.
14 If you cast me out this day from the face of the earth, and I shall be hidden from your presence, and I shall be groaning and trembling upon the earth, then it will be that any one that finds me shall kill me.
Behold, thou hast driven me this day from the face of the ground, and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a wanderer and fugitive on the earth; and it will come to pass, [that] every one who finds me will slay me.
15 And the Lord God said to him, Not so, any one that slays Cain shall suffer sevenfold vengeance; and the Lord God set a mark upon Cain that no one that found him might kill him.
And Jehovah said to him, Therefore, whoever slayeth Cain, it shall be revenged sevenfold. And Jehovah set a mark on Cain, lest any finding him should smite him.
16 So Cain went forth from the presence of God and lived in the land of Nod over against Edem.
And Cain went out from the presence of Jehovah, and dwelt in the land of Nod, toward the east of Eden.
17 And Cain knew his wife, and having conceived she bore Enoch; and he built a city; and he named the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city; and he called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch.
18 And to Enoch was born Gaidad; and Gaidad begot Maleleel; and Maleleel begot Mathusala; and Mathusala begot Lamech.
And to Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael; and Mehujael begot Methushael; and Methushael begot Lemech.
19 And Lamech took to himself two wives; the name of the one was Ada, and the name of the second Sella.
And Lemech took two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the second, Zillah.
20 And Ada bore Jobel; he was the father of those that dwell in tents, feeding cattle.
And Adah bore Jabal: he was the father of those who dwell in tents, and [breed] cattle.
21 And the name of his brother was Jubal; he it was who invented the lute and harp.
And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of those who handle the harp and pipe.
22 And Sella also bore Thobel; he was a smith, a manufacturer both of brass and iron; and the sister of Thobel was Noema.
And Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, the forger of every kind of tool of brass and iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah.
23 And Lamech said to his wives, Ada and Sella, Hear my voice, you wives of Lamech, consider my words, because I have slain a man to my sorrow and a youth to my grief.
And Lemech said to his wives: Adah and Zillah, hear my voice, Ye wives of Lemech, listen to my speech. For I have slain a man for my wound, and a youth for my bruise.
24 Because vengeance has been exacted seven times on Cain's behalf, on Lamech's [it shall be] seventy times seven.
If Cain shall be avenged seven-fold; Lemech seventy and seven fold.
25 And Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore a son, and called his name Seth, saying, For God has raised up to me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain killed.
And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son, and called his name Seth: ...For God has appointed me another seed instead of Abel, because Cain has slain him.
26 And Seth had a son, and he called his name Enos: he hoped to call on the name of the Lord God.
And to Seth, to him also was born a son; and he called his name Enosh. Then people began to call on the name of Jehovah.
