Genesis 4:4-8
4 and Abel also brought of a the firstborn of his flock and of their fat portions. And the Lord b had regard for Abel and his offering, 5 but c for Cain and his offering he had no regard. So Cain was very angry, and his face fell. 6 The Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry, and why has your face fallen? 7 d If you do well, will you not be accepted? ▼
▼
Hebrew will there not be a lifting up [of your face]?
And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. f Its desire is for
▼
▼
Or against
you, but you must rule over it.” 8 Cain spoke to Abel his brother.
