| Genesis 4:3 | And it came to pass after many days, that Cain offered, of the fruits of the earth, gifts to the Lord. | As time passed, it happened that Cain brought an offering to Yahweh from the fruit of the ground. | And it cometh to pass at the end of days that Cain bringeth from the fruit of the ground a present to Jehovah; |
| Genesis 4:4 | Abel also offered of the firstlings of his flock, and of their fat: and the Lord had respect to Abel, and to his offerings. | Abel also brought some of the firstborn of his flock and of the fat of it.

| Genesis 4:5 | But to Cain and his offerings he had no respect: and Cain was exceedingly angry, and his countenance fell. | but he didn't respect Cain and his offering.

| Genesis 4:6 | And the Lord said to him: Why art thou angry? and why is thy countenance fallen? | Yahweh said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why has the expression of your face fallen? | And Jehovah saith unto Cain, `Why hast thou displeasure? and why hath thy countenance fallen? |
| Genesis 4:7 | If thou do well, shalt thou not receive? but if ill, shall not sin forthwith be present at the door? but the lust thereof shall be under thee, and thou shalt have dominion over it. | If you do well, will it not be lifted up? If you don't do well, sin crouches at the door. Its desire is for you, but you are to rule over it." | 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.` |
| Genesis 4:8 | And Cain said to Abel his brother: Let us go forth abroad.

The voice of your brother's blood cries to me from the ground. | And He saith, `What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother`s blood is crying unto Me from the ground; |
| Genesis 4:11 | Now, therefore, cursed shalt thou be upon the earth, which hath opened her mouth and received the blood of thy brother at thy hand, | Now you are cursed because of the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. | and now, cursed [art] thou from the ground, which hath opened her mouth to receive the blood of thy brother from thy hand; |
| Genesis 4:12 | When thou shalt till it, it shall not yield to thee its fruit: a fugitive and vagabond shalt thou be upon the earth. | From now on, when you till the ground, it won't yield its strength to you.

I will be hidden from your face, and I will be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth. It will happen that whoever finds me will kill me." | 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.` |
