Seeker Overlay ON
*
And Adam knew Eve his wife ;
and she conceived ,
and bare Cain ,
and said ,
I have gotten a man from the LORD .
*
And she again bare his brother Abel .
And Abel was a keeper of sheep tso #
n #,
but Cain was a tiller of the ground .
*
And in process of time it came to pass ,
that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD .
*
And Abel ,
he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof .
And the LORD had respect sha #

unto Abel and to his offering :
*
But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect .
And Cain was very wroth ,
and his countenance fell .
*
And the LORD said unto Cain ,
Why art thou wroth ?
and why is thy countenance fallen ?
*
If thou doest well ,
shalt thou not be accepted s @#
eth #?
and if thou doest not well ,
sin lieth at the door .
And unto thee shall be his desire ,
and thou shalt rule over him .
*
And Cain talked with Abel his brother :
and it came to pass ,
when they were in the field ,
that Cain rose up against Abel his brother ,
and slew him .
*
And the LORD said unto Cain ,
Where is Abel thy brother ?
And he said ,
I know not :
Am I my brothers keeper ?
*
And he said ,
What hast thou done ?
the voice of thy brothers blood crieth unto me from the ground .
*
And now art thou cursed from the earth ,
which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brothers blood from thy hand ;
*
When thou tillest the ground ,
it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength ;
a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth .
*
And Cain said unto the LORD ,
My punishment is greater than I can bear .
*
Behold ,
thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth ;
and from thy face shall I be hid ;
and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth ;
and it shall come to pass ,
that every one that findeth me shall slay me .
*
And the LORD said unto him ,
Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain ,
vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold shib #
athayim #.
And the LORD set a mark upon Cain ,
lest any finding him should kill him .
*
And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD ,
and dwelt in the land of Nod ,
on the east of Eden .

And Lamech said unto his wives ,
Adah and Zillah ,
Hear my voice ;
ye wives of Lamech ,
hearken unto my speech :
for I have slain a man to my wounding ,
and a young man to my hurt .

If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold shib #
