11 And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand; |
12 When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth. |
13 And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear. |
14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me. |
15 And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him. |
16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. |
