4. and Abel, he hath brought, he also, from the female firstlings of his flock, even from their fat ones; and Jehovah looketh unto Abel and unto his present,
5. and unto Cain and unto his present He hath not looked; and it is very displeasing to Cain, and his countenance is fallen.
6. And Jehovah saith unto Cain, `Why hast thou displeasure? and why hath thy countenance fallen?
7. Is there not, if thou dost well, acceptance? and if thou dost not well, at the opening a sin-offering is crouching, and unto thee its desire, and thou rulest over it.'
8. And Cain saith unto Abel his brother, [`Let us go into the field;'] and it cometh to pass in their being in the field, that Cain riseth up against Abel his brother, and slayeth him.
9. And Jehovah saith unto Cain, `Where [is] Abel thy brother?' and he saith, `I have not known; my brother's keeper--I?'
10. And He saith, `What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood is crying unto Me from the ground;
11. and now, cursed [art] thou from the ground, which hath opened her mouth to receive the blood of thy brother from thy hand;
12. when thou tillest the ground, it doth not add to give its strength to thee--a wanderer, even a trembling one, thou art in the earth.'
13. And Cain saith unto Jehovah, `Greater is my punishment than to be borne;
14. lo, Thou hast driven me to-day from off the face of the ground, and from Thy face I am hid; and I have been a wanderer, even a trembling one, in the earth, and it hath been--every one finding me doth slay me.'
15. And Jehovah saith to him, `Therefore--of any slayer of Cain sevenfold it is required;' and Jehovah setteth to Cain a token that none finding him doth slay him.
16. And Cain goeth out from before Jehovah, and dwelleth in the land, moving about east of Eden;
17. and Cain knoweth his wife, and she conceiveth, and beareth Enoch; and he is building a city, and he calleth the name of the city, according to the name of his son--Enoch.
