4And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord.
²And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
³And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord.
⁴And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering:
⁵But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
⁶And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
⁷If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
⁸And Cain talked with 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.
⁹And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother’s keeper?
¹⁰And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground.
¹¹And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand;
¹²When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.
¹³And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
¹⁴Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
¹⁵And the Lord said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
²⁵And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.

²⁰Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother’s son.
²¹These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.
²²Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
²³Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I shew the salvation of God.

¹¹And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
¹²And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.
¹³And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side.
