Genesis 4
New International Version (1984) Help
4Adam lay with his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, "With the help of the LORD I have brought forth a man."H120H3045H853H2332H802H2029H3205H853H7014H559H7069H376H854H3068
2Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil.H3254H3205H251H1893H1893H7462H6629H7014H5647H127
3In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the LORD.H7093H3117H7014H935H6529H127H4503H3068
4But Abel brought fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering,H1893H1931H935H1062H6629H2459H3068H8159H1893H4503
5but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.H7014H4503H8159H7014H3966H2734H6440H5307
6Then the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast?H3068H559H7014H2734H6440H5307
7If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it."H518H3190H7613H3190H2403H7257H6607H8669H4910
8Now Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.H7014H559H413H1893H251H7704H7014H6965H413H1893H251H2026
9Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is your brother Abel?" "I don't know," he replied. "Am I my brother's keeper?"H3068H559H7014H335H1893H251H559H3045H251H8104
10The LORD said, "What have you done? Listen! Your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground.H559H4100H6213H6963H251H1818H6817H127
11Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.H779H127H6475H6310H3947H251H1818H3027
12When you work the ground, it will no longer yield its crops for you. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth."H3588H5647H127H3254H5414H3581H5128H5110H776
13Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is more than I can bear.H7014H559H3068H5771H1419H5375
14Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me."H1644H3117H6440H127H5921H6440H5641H5128H5110H776H1961H4672H2026
15But the LORD said to him, "Not so; if anyone kills Cain, he will suffer vengeance seven times over." Then the LORD put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him.H3068H559H3651H2026H7014H5358H7659H3068H7760H226H7014H1115H4672H5221
16So Cain went out from the LORD'S presence and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.H7014H3318H6440H3068H3427H776H5113H6926H5731
17Cain lay with his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch. Cain was then building a city, and he named it after his son Enoch.H7014H3045H802H2029H3205H2585H1129H5892H7121H8034H5892H8034H1121H2585
18To Enoch was born Irad, and Irad was the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael was the father of Methushael, and Methushael was the father of Lamech.H2585H3205H5897H5897H3205H4232H4232H3205H4967H4967H3205H3929
19Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah.H3929H3947H8147H802H8034H259H5711H8034H8145H6741
20Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who live in tents and raise livestock.H5711H3205H2989H1H3427H168H4735
21His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play the harp and flute.H251H8034H3106H1H8610H3658H5748
22Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who forged all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron. Tubal-Cain's sister was Naamah.H6741H3205H8423H3913H2794H5178H1270H269H8423H5279
23Lamech said to his wives, "Adah and Zillah, listen to me; wives of Lamech, hear my words. I have killed a man for wounding me, a young man for injuring me.H3929H559H802H5711H6741H8085H6963H802H3929H238H565H2026H376H6482H3206H2250
24If Cain is avenged seven times, then Lamech seventy-seven times."H3588H7014H5358H7659H3929H7657H7651
25Adam lay with his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, "God has granted me another child in place of Abel, since Cain killed him."H120H3045H802H5750H3205H1121H7121H8034H8352H430H7896H312H2233H8478H1893H3588H7014H2026
26Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time men began to call on the name of the LORD.H8352H1931H3205H1121H7121H8034H583H2490H7121H8034H3068
