Genesis 4




ylt@Genesis:4:1 @And the man knew Eve his wife, and she conceiveth and beareth Cain, and saith, 'I have gotten a man by Jehovah;'

ylt@Genesis:4:2 @and she addeth to bear his brother, even Abel. And Abel is feeding a flock, and Cain hath been servant of the ground.

ylt@Genesis:4:3 @And it cometh to pass at the end of days that Cain bringeth from the fruit of the ground a present to Jehovah;

ylt@Genesis:4:4 @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,

ylt@Genesis:4:5 @and unto Cain and unto his present He hath not looked; and it is very displeasing to Cain, and his countenance is fallen.

ylt@Genesis:4:6 @And Jehovah saith unto Cain, 'Why hast thou displeasure? and why hath thy countenance fallen?

ylt@Genesis:4:7 @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.'

ylt@Genesis:4:8 @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.

ylt@Genesis:4:9 @And Jehovah saith unto Cain, 'Where [is] Abel thy brother?' and he saith, 'I have not known; my brother's keeper -- I?'

ylt@Genesis:4:10 @And He saith, 'What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood is crying unto Me from the ground;

ylt@Genesis:4:11 @and now, cursed [art] thou from the ground, which hath opened her mouth to receive the blood of thy brother from thy hand;

ylt@Genesis:4:12 @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.'

ylt@Genesis:4:13 @And Cain saith unto Jehovah, 'Greater is my punishment than to be borne;

ylt@Genesis:4:14 @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.'

ylt@Genesis:4:15 @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.

ylt@Genesis:4:16 @And Cain goeth out from before Jehovah, and dwelleth in the land, moving about east of Eden;

ylt@Genesis:4:17 @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.

ylt@Genesis:4:18 @And born to Enoch is Irad; and Irad hath begotten Mehujael; and Mehujael hath begotten Methusael; and Methusael hath begotten Lamech.

ylt@Genesis:4:19 @And Lamech taketh to himself two wives, the name of the one Adah, and the name of the second Zillah.

ylt@Genesis:4:20 @And Adah beareth Jabal, he hath been father of those inhabiting tents and purchased possessions;

ylt@Genesis:4:21 @and the name of his brother [is] Jubal, he hath been father of every one handling harp and organ.

ylt@Genesis:4:22 @And Zillah she also bare Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron; and a sister of Tubal-Cain [is] Naamah.

ylt@Genesis:4:23 @And Lamech saith to his wives: -- 'Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; Wives of Lamech, give ear [to] my saying: For a man I have slain for my wound, Even a young man for my hurt;

ylt@Genesis:4:24 @For sevenfold is required for Cain, And for Lamech seventy and sevenfold.'

ylt@Genesis:4:25 @And Adam again knoweth his wife, and she beareth a son, and calleth his name Seth, 'for God hath appointed for me another seed instead of Abel:' for Cain had slain him.

ylt@Genesis:4:26 @And to Seth, to him also a son hath been born, and he calleth his name Enos; then a beginning was made of preaching in the name of Jehovah.
