01:004:008 And Cain talked with Abel his brother:  and it came to pass,
           when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel
           his brother, and slew him.

01:004:009 And the lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother?  And he
           said, I know not:  Am I my brother’s keeper?

01:004:010 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s
           blood crieth unto me from the ground.

01:004:011 And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her
           mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand;

01:004:012 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.

01:004:013 And Cain said unto the lord, My punishment is greater than I
           can bear.

01:004:014 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.

01:004:015 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.

01:004:016 And Cain went out from the presence of the lord, and dwelt in
           the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.

01:004:017 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch:  and
           he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the
           name of his son, Enoch.

01:004:018 And unto Enoch was born Irad:  and Irad begat Mehujael:  and
           Mehujael begat Methusael:  and Methusael begat Lamech.

01:004:019 And Lamech took unto him two wives:  the name of the one was
           Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.

01:004:020 And Adah bare Jabal:  he was the father of such as dwell in
           tents, and of such as have cattle.

01:004:021 And his brother’s name was Jubal:  he was the father of all
           such as handle the harp and organ.

01:004:022 And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructor of every
           artificer in brass and iron:  and the sister of Tubalcain was
           Naamah.

01:004:023 And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my
           voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech:  for I have
           slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.

01:004:024 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and
           sevenfold.

01:004:025 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called
           his name Seth:  For God, said she, hath appointed me another
           seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
