1: Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and
bore Cain, saying, "I have gotten a man with the help of the Yahweh."
2: And again, she bore his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, and
Cain a tiller of the ground.
3: In the course of time Cain brought to the Yahweh an offering of the fruit of
the ground,
4: and Abel brought of the firstlings of his flock and of their fat portions.
And the Yahweh had regard for Abel and his offering,
5: but for Cain and his offering he had no regard. So Cain was very angry, and
his countenance fell.
6: The Yahweh said to Cain, "Why are you angry, and why has your
countenance fallen?
7: If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is
couching at the door; its desire is for you, but you must master it."
8: Cain said to Abel his brother, "Let us go out to the field." And
when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and killed
him.
9: Then the Yahweh said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?" He
said, "I do not know; am I my brother's keeper?"
10: And the Yahweh said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's
blood is crying to me from the ground.
11: And now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to
receive your brother's blood from your hand.
12: When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield to you its strength; you
shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth."
13: Cain said to the Yahweh, "My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14: Behold, thou hast driven me this day away from the ground; and from thy face
I shall be hidden; and I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and
whoever finds me will slay me."
15: Then the Yahweh said to him, "Not so! If any one slays Cain, vengeance
shall be taken on him sevenfold." And the Yahweh put a mark on Cain, lest
any who came upon him should kill him.
16: Then Cain went away from the presence of the Yahweh, and dwelt in the land
of Nod, east of Eden.
17: Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch; and he built a city,
and called the name of the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
18: To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad was the father of Me-hu'ja-el, and Me-hu'ja-el
the father of Me-thu'sha-el, and Me-thu'sha-el the father of Lamech.
19: And Lamech took two wives; the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the
other Zillah.
20: Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and have
cattle.
21: His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all those who play the
lyre and pipe.
22: Zillah bore Tubal-cain; he was the forger of all instruments of bronze and
iron. The sister of Tubal-cain was Na'amah.
23: Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice;
you wives of Lamech, hearken to what I say:
I have slain a man for wounding me,
a young man for striking me.
24: If Cain is avenged sevenfold,
truly Lamech seventy-sevenfold."
25: And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and called his name Seth,
for she said, "God has appointed for me another child instead of Abel, for
Cain slew him."
26: To Seth also a son was born, and he called his name Enosh. At that time men
began to call upon the name of the Yahweh.
