¹ And Adam lay with Eve his wife, which conceived and bare Cain, and said, "I have gotten a man of the LORD." ² And she proceeded forth and bare his brother Abel: And Abel became a shepherd, and Cain became a plowman. ³ And it fortuned, in process of time, that Cain brought of the fruit of the earth an offering unto the LORD. ⁴ And Abel, he brought also of the firstlings of his sheep and of the fat of them. And the LORD looked unto Abel and to his offering: ⁵ but unto Cain and unto his offering, looked he not. And Cain was wroth exceedingly, and lowered. ⁶ And the LORD said unto Cain, "Why art thou angry, and why lowerest thou? Knowest thou not, if thou dost well thou shalt receive it? ⁷ But and if thou dost evil, by and by thy sin lieth open in the door. Notwithstanding, let it be subdued unto thee, and see thou rule it." ⁸ And Cain talked with Abel his brother. And as soon as they were in the fields, Cain fell upon Abel his brother and slew him. ⁹ And the LORD said unto Cain, "Where is Abel thy brother?" And he said, "I can not tell, am I my brother's keeper?" ¹⁰ And he said, "What hast thou done? The voice of thy brother's blood cryeth unto me out of the earth. ¹¹ And now cursed be thou as pertaining to the earth, which opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood of thine hand. ¹² For when thou tillest the ground she shall henceforth not give her power unto thee. A vagabond and a renegade shalt thou be upon the earth." ¹³ And Cain said unto the LORD, "My sin is greater, than that it may be forgiven. ¹⁴ Behold, thou castest me out this day from off the face of the earth, and from thy sight must I hide myself, and I must be a vagabond and a renegade upon the earth: Moreover whosoever findeth me, will kill me." ¹⁵ And the LORD said unto him, "Not so, but whosoever slayeth Cain shall be punished sevenfold." And the LORD put a mark upon Cain that no man that found him should kill him. ¹⁶ And Cain went out from the face of the LORD, and dwelt in the land Nod, on the east side of Eden. ¹⁷ And Cain lay with his wife, which conceived and bare Enoch. And he was building a city and called the name of it after the name of his son, Enoch. ¹⁸ And Enoch begat Irad. And Irad begat Mehujael. And Mehujael begat Methusael. And Methusael begat Lamech. ¹⁹ And Lamech took him two wives: the one was called Adah, and the other Zillah. ²⁰ And Ada bare Jabal; of whom came they that dwell in tents and possess cattle. ²¹ And his brother's name was Jubal; of him came all that exercise themselves on the harp and on the organs. ²² And Zillah she also bare Tubalcain; a worker in metal and a father of all that grave in brass and iron. And Tubalcain's sister was called Naamah. ²³ Then said Lamech unto his wives Adah and Zillah, "Hear my voice ye wives of Lamech, and hearken unto my words, for I have slain a man and wounded myself, and have slain a young man, and got myself stripes. ²⁴ For Cain shall be avenged sevenfold: but Lamech seventy times sevenfold." ²⁵ Adam also lay with his wife yet again, and she bare a son and called his name Seth: "For God," said she, "hath given me another son for Abel whom Cain slew." ²⁶ And Seth begat a son and called his name Enos. And in that time began men to call on the name of the LORD.

Thou shalt build a house and another shall dwell therein. Thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not make it common. ³¹ Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof. Thine ass shall be violently taken away even before thy face, and shall not be restored thee again. Thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and no man shall help thee. ³² Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another nation, and thine eyes shall see and daze upon them all day long, but shalt have no might in thine hand. ³³ The fruit of thy land and all thy labours shall a nation eat, which thou knowest not; and thou shalt but suffer violence only and be oppressed always, ³⁴ that thou shalt be clean beside thyself for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see. ³⁵ "The LORD shall smite thee with a mischievous botch in the knees and legs, so that thou canst not be healed: even from the sole of the foot unto the top of the head. ³⁶ The LORD shall bring both thee and thy king which thou hast set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, and there thou shalt serve strange gods: even wood and stone. ³⁷ And thou shalt go to waste and be made an example and a jestingstock unto all nations whither the LORD shall carry thee. ³⁸ Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather but little in: for the grasshoppers shall destroy it. ³⁹ Thou shalt plant a vineyard and dress it, but shalt neither drink of the wine neither gather of the grapes: for the worms shall eat it. ⁴⁰ Thou shalt have olive trees in all thy coasts, but shalt not be anointed with the oil: for thine olive trees shall be rooted out. ⁴¹ Thou shalt get sons and daughters, but shalt not have them: for they shall be carried away captive. ⁴² All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall be marred with blasting. ⁴³ The strangers that are among you shall climb above thee up on high, and thou shalt come down beneath a-low. ⁴⁴ He shall lend thee and thou shalt not lend him, he shall be before and thou behind. ⁴⁵ "Moreover, all these curses shall come upon thee and shall follow thee and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed: because thou hearkenedest not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and ordinances which he commanded thee; ⁴⁶ and they shall be upon thee as miracles and wonders and upon thy seed for ever. ⁴⁷ And because thou servedest not the LORD thy God with joyfulness and with a good heart for the abundance of all things, ⁴⁸ therefore thou shalt serve thine enemy which the LORD shall send upon thee: in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and in need of all things. And he shall put a yoke of iron upon thine neck, until he have brought thee to nought. ⁴⁹ "And the LORD shall bring a nation upon thee from afar, even from the end of the world, as swift as an eagle flyeth: a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand; ⁵⁰ a hard-favoured nation which shall not regard the person of the old nor have compassion on the young. ⁵¹ And he shall eat the fruit of thy land and the fruit of thy cattle until he have destroyed thee: so that he shall leave thee neither corn, wine, nor oil, neither the increase of thine oxen nor the flocks of thy sheep: until he have brought thee to nought. ⁵² And he shall keep thee in all thy cities, until thy high and strong walls be come down wherein thou trustedest, through all thy land.
