Genesis 4:2-8

And she again
<03254> (8686)
bare
<03205> (8800)
his brother
<0251>
Abel
<01893>_.
And Abel
<01893>
was a keeper
<07462> (8802)
of sheep
<06629>_,
but Cain
<07014>
was a tiller
<05647> (8802)
of the ground
<0127>_.
{Abel: Heb. Hebel} {a keeper: Heb. a feeder}
And in process
<07093>
of time
<03117>
it came to pass, that Cain
<07014>
brought
<0935> (8686)
of the fruit
<06529>
of the ground
<0127>
an offering
<04503>
unto the LORD
<03068>_.
{in process...: Heb. at the end of days}
And Abel
<01893>_,
he
<01931>
also brought
<0935> (8689)
of the firstlings
<01062>
of his flock
<06629>
and of the fat
<02459>
thereof. And the LORD
<03068>
had respect
<08159> (8799)
unto Abel
<01893>
and to his offering
<04503>_:
{flock: Heb. sheep, or, goats}
But unto Cain
<07014>
and to his offering
<04503>
he had not respect
<08159> (8804)_.
And Cain
<07014>
was very
<03966>
wroth
<02734> (8799)_,
and his countenance
<06440>
fell
<05307> (8799)_.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Cain
<07014>_,
Why art thou wroth
<02734> (8804)_?
and why is thy countenance
<06440>
fallen
<05307> (8804)_?
If
<0518>
thou doest well
<03190> (8686)_,
shalt thou not be accepted
<07613>_?
and if thou doest not well
<03190> (8686)_,
sin
<02403>
lieth
<07257> (8802)
at the door
<06607>_.
And unto thee [shall be] his desire
<08669>_,
and thou shalt rule
<04910> (8799)
over him. {be accepted: or, have the excellency} {unto...: or, subject unto thee}
And Cain
<07014>
talked
<0559> (8799)
with
<0413>
Abel
<01893>
his brother
<0251>_:
and it came to pass, when they were in the field
<07704>_,
that Cain
<07014>
rose up
<06965> (8799)
against
<0413>
Abel
<01893>
his brother
<0251>_,
and slew him
<02026> (8799)_.
