00:00Genesis 4
00:02And Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bare Cain, and said,
00:09I have gotten a man from the Lord.
00:12And she again bare his brother Abel, and Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller
00:18of the ground.
00:20And in process of time it came to pass that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an
00:26offering unto the Lord.
00:27And Abel he also brought of the firstlings of his flock, and of the fat thereof.
00:33And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering.
00:37But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect.
00:41And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
00:46And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth, and why is thy countenance fallen?
00:52If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted.
00:58And if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door, and unto thee shall be his desire.
01:06And thou shalt rule over him.
01:09And Cain talked with Abel his brother, and it came to pass, when they were in the field,
01:16that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
01:21And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother?
01:25And he said, I know not.
01:29Am I my brother's keeper?
01:31And he said, What hast thou done?
01:36The voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.
01:40And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's
01:46blood from thy hand.
01:47When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength.
01:54A fugitive and a vagabond shall thou be in the earth.
01:59And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
02:05Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth, and from thy face shall
02:11I be hid.
02:12And I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth, and it shall come to pass that
02:18every one that findeth me shall slay me.
02:21And the Lord said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him
02:28sevenfold.
02:30And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
02:35And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the
02:42east of Eden.
02:44And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and bare Enoch.
02:49And he builded a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
02:55And unto Enoch was born Erad.
02:58And Erad begat Mahushael, and Mahushael begat Methusael, and Methusael begat Lamech.
03:06And Lamech took unto him two wives.
03:08The name of the one was Adar, and the name of the other Zillah.
03:13And Adar bare Jebal.
03:16He was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle.
03:21And his brother's name was Jubal.
03:23He was the father of all such as handle the harp, and organ.
03:29And Zillah, she also bare Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron.
03:36And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Nammah.
03:40And Lamech said unto his wives Adar and Zillah,
03:44Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech.
03:47Hearken unto my speech.
03:48For I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
03:55If Cain shall be avenged a sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
04:03And Adam knew his wife again, and she bare a son, and called his name Seth.
04:09For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
04:18And to Seth, to him also there was born a son.
04:23And he called his name Enos.
04:26Then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.
