3. And it came to be, in the course of time, that Qayin brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to יהוה.
4. And Heḇel also brought of the first-born of his flock and of their fat. And יהוה looked to Heḇel and his offering,
5. but He did not look to Qayin and his offering. And Qayin was very wroth, and his face fell.
6. And יהוה said to Qayin, “Why are you wroth? And why is your face fallen?
7. “If you do well, is there not acceptance? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should master it.”
8. And Qayin told Heḇel his brother. And it came to be when they were in the field, that Qayin rose up against Heḇel his brother and killed him.
9. And יהוה said to Qayin, “Where is Heḇel your brother?” And he said, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s guard?”
10. And He said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground.
11. “And now you are cursed from the earth, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
12. “If you till the ground, it shall no longer yield its strength to you. You shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth.”
13. And Qayin said to יהוה, “My punishment is too great to bear!
14. “See, You have driven me from the face of the ground today, and I am hidden from Your face. I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and it shall be that anyone who finds me kills me.”
15. And יהוה said to him, “Well, if anyone kills Qayin, vengeance is taken on him sevenfold.” And יהוה set up a sign for Qayin, lest anyone finding him kills him.
16. So Qayin went out from the presence of יהוה and dwelt in the land of Noḏ on the east of Ěḏen.
17. And Qayin knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Ḥanoḵ. And he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son, Ḥanoḵ.
