Genesis 4:3-7

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

3 In the course of time Kayin brought an offering to ADONAI from the produce of the soil;

4 and Hevel too brought from the firstborn of his sheep, including their fat. ADONAI accepted Hevel and his offering

5 but did not accept Kayin and his offering. Kayin was very angry, and his face fell.

6 ADONAI said to Kayin, "Why are you angry? Why so downcast?

7 If you are doing what is good, shouldn't you hold your head high? And if you don't do what is good, sin is crouching at the door - it wants you, but you can rule over it."

New International Version NIV

3 In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the LORD.

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 but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.

6 Then the LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast?

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.”
