And she conceived and bore Cain, and said, I have gotten a man with the help of Jehovah.<br \/>\nGen 4:2  And she continued to bear his brother, Abel. And Abel became a shepherd of flocks. And Cain became a tiller of the ground.<br \/>\nGen 4:3  And in the end of days, it happened that Cain brought an offering to Jehovah from the fruit of the ground.<br \/>\nGen 4:4  And Abel brought, he also, from the firstlings of his flocks, even from their fat. And Jehovah looked to Abel and to his offering.<br \/>\nGen 4:5  And He did not look to Cain and to his offering. And Cain glowed greatly with anger, and his face fell.<br \/>\nGen 4:6  And Jehovah said to Cain, Why have you angrily glowed, and why has your face fallen?<br \/>\nGen 4:7  If you do well, is there not exaltation? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door; and its desire is toward you; but you should rule over it.<br \/>\nGen 4:8  And Cain talked with his brother Abel. And it happened as they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and killed him.<br \/>\nGen 4:9  And Jehovah said to Cain, Where is your brother Abel? And he said, I do not know. Am I my brother&#8217;s keeper?<br \/>\nGen 4:10  And He said, What have you done? The voice of the blood of your brother cries to Me from the ground.<br \/>\nGen 4:11  And now you are cursed more than the ground which opened its mouth to receive your brother&#8217;s blood from your hand.<br \/>\nGen 4:12  When you till the ground, it will not again give its strength to you. You shall be a vagabond and a fugitive on the earth.<br \/>\nGen 4:13  And Cain said to Jehovah, My punishment is greater than I can bear.<br \/>\nGen 4:14  Behold! You have driven me out from the face of the earth today. And I shall be hidden from Your face. And I shall be a vagabond and a fugitive on the earth. And it will be that anyone who finds me shall kill me.<br \/>\nGen 4:15  And Jehovah said to him, If anyone kills Cain, he shall be avenged sevenfold. And Jehovah set a mark on Cain, so that anyone who found him should not kill him.<br \/>\nGen 4:16  And Cain went out from the presence of Jehovah. And he lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.<br \/>\nGen 4:17  And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and he called the name of the city according to the name of his son, Enoch.<br \/>\nGen 4:18  And Irad was born to Enoch; and Irad fathered Mehujael And Mehujael fathered Methusael; and Methusael fathered Lamech.<br \/>\nGen 4:19  And Lamech took two wives to himself: the name of the first was Adah; and the name of the second was Zillah.<br \/>\nGen 4:20  And Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of those living in tents, and with cattle.<br \/>\nGen 4:21  And the name of his brother was Jubal; he was the father of all those playing the harp and the organ.<br \/>\nGen 4:22  And Zillah also bore Tubalcain, the hammerer of every engraving tool of bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah.<br \/>\nGen 4:23  And Lamech said to his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice, you wives of Lamech; listen to my words; for I have killed a man because of my wound, and a young man because of my hurt.<br \/>\nGen 4:24  For Cain is avenged sevenfold, and Lamech seventy seven.<br \/>\nGen 4:25  And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son. And she called his name, Seth, for God has appointed to me another seed in place of Abel because Cain killed him.<br \/>\nGen 4:26  And a son was also born to Seth, and he called his name, Enos. Then it was begun to call on the name of Jehovah.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gen 4:1 And the man knew his wife Eve.
