1
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."
2
Again,
she gave birth
to his brother
Abel.
And Abel
was a keeper
of flocks,
but Cain
was a tiller
of the ground.
3
So it came
about in the course
of time
that Cain
brought
an offering
to the LORD
of the fruit
of the ground.
4
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;
5
but for Cain
and for his offering
He had
no
regard.
So Cain
became
very
angry
and his countenance
fell.
6
Then the LORD
said
to Cain,
"Why
are you angry?
And why
has your countenance
fallen?
7
"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."
8
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.
9
Then the LORD
said
to Cain,
"Where
is Abel
your brother?"
And he
said
,
"I do not know.
Am I my brother's
keeper?"
10
He said,
"What
have you done?
The voice
of your brother's
blood
is crying
to Me from the ground.
11
"Now
you are cursed
from the ground,
which
has opened
its mouth
to receive
your brother's
blood
from your hand.
12
"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."
13
Cain
said
to the LORD,
"My punishment
is too
great
to bear!
14
"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."
15
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.
16
Then Cain
went
out from the presence
of the LORD,
and settled
in the land
of Nod,
east
of Eden.
17
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.
18
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.
19
Lamech
took
to himself two
wives:
the name
of the one
was Adah,
and
the name
of the other,
Zillah.
20
Adah
gave birth
to Jabal;
he was the father
of those who dwell
in tents
and have livestock.
21
His brother's
name
was Jubal;
he was the father
of all
those who play
the lyre
and pipe.
22
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.
23
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;
24
If
Cain
is avenged
sevenfold,
Then Lamech
seventy-sevenfold."
25
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."
26
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.
