Genesis 4:8–18

⁸And Cain said to Abel his brother: Let us go forth abroad. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and slew him.

⁹And the Lord said to Cain: Where is thy brother Abel? And he answered: I know not: am I my brother’s keeper?

¹⁰And he said to him: What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth to me from the earth.

¹¹Now therefore cursed shalt thou be upon the earth, which hath opened her mouth and received the blood of thy brother at thy hand.

¹²When thou shalt till it, it shall not yield to thee its fruit: a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be upon the earth.

¹³And Cain said to the Lord: My iniquity is greater than that I may deserve pardon.

¹⁴Behold thou dost cast me out this day from the face of the earth, and from thy face I shall be hid, and I shall be a vagabond and a fugitive on the earth: every one therefore that findeth me, shall kill me.

¹⁵And the Lord said to him: No, it shall not so be: but whosoever shall kill Cain, shall be punished sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, that whosoever found him should not kill him.

¹⁶And Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and dwelt as a fugitive on the earth at the east side of Eden.

¹⁷And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and brought forth Henoch: and he built a city, and called the name thereof by the name of his son Henoch.

¹⁸And Henoch begot Irad, and Irad begot Maviael, and Maviael begot Mathusael, and Mathusael begot Lamech,
