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, 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 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?
