7: will notH3808 ifH0518 you do well,H3190 you be accepted?H7613 and ifH0518 notH3808 you do well,H3190 at the doorH6607 sinH2403 lies,H7257 and for youH0413 its desire [is]H8669 but youH0859 should ruleH4910

8: And talkedH0559 CainH7014 withH0413 AbelH1893 his brother-H0251 and it came to pass,H1961 when they wereH1961 in the field,H7704 that rose upH6965 CainH7014 againstH0413 AbelH1893 his brother,H0251 and killed him.H2026

9: And saidH0559 YahwehH3068 toH0413 Cain,H7014 where [is]H0335 AbelH1893 your brother?H0251 and He said,H0559 notH3808 I do know?H3045 KeeperH8104 of my brotherH0251 [am] I?H0595

10: and He said,H0559 whatH4100 have you done?H6213 the voiceH6963 of the bloodH1818 of your brotherH0251 cries outH6817 to MeH0413 fromH4480 the ground!H0127

11: so nowH6258 [are] cursedH0779 youH0859 fromH4480 the earth,H0127 whichH0834 has openedH6475 -H0853 its mouthH6310 to receiveH3947 -H0853 the bloodH1818 of your brotherH0251 from your hand.H3027

12: WhenH3588 you tillH5647 -,H0853 the groundH0127 noH3808 it shall longerH3254 yieldH5414 its strengthH3581 a fugitiveH5128 and a wandererH5110 you shall beH1961 on the earth.H0776

13: And saidH0559 CainH7014 toH0413 Yahweh,H3068 greater [is]H1419 my punishmentH5771 than I can bear!H5375

14: surely,H2005 You have driven outH1644 meH0853 today,H3117 fromH5921 the faceH6440 of the ground-H0127 and from Your faceH6440 I shall be hidden-H5641 and I shall beH1961 a fugitiveH5128 and a wandererH5110 on the earth-H0776 and it will come to pass [that],H1961 anyoneH3605 who finds meH4672 will kill me.H2026

15: And saidH0559 Yahweh,H3068 thereforeH3651 whoeverH3605 killsH2026 Cain,H7014 sevenfoldH7659 vengeance shall be taken on him.H5358 And setH7760 YahwehH3068 on CainH7014 a mark,H0226 lestH1115 should killH5221 himH0853 anyoneH3605 finding him.H4672
