1 Adam vero cognovit Havam uxorem suam quae concepit et peperit Cain dicens possedi hominem per Dominum
1 Adam made love to his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, “With the help of the LORD I have brought forth a man.”
2 rursusque peperit fratrem eius Abel fuit autem Abel pastor ovium et Cain agricola
2 Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil.
3 factum est autem post multos dies ut offerret Cain de fructibus terrae munera Domino
3 In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the LORD.
4 Abel quoque obtulit de primogenitis gregis sui et de adipibus eorum et respexit Dominus ad Abel et ad munera eius
4 And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering,
5 ad Cain vero et ad munera illius non respexit iratusque est Cain vehementer et concidit vultus eius
5 but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.
6 dixitque Dominus ad eum quare maestus es et cur concidit facies tua
6 Then the LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast?
7 nonne si bene egeris recipies sin autem male statim in foribus peccatum aderit sed sub te erit appetitus eius et tu dominaberis illius
7 If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it.”

11 Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
