1 Adam made love to his wife Eve. She became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, |I have gotten the man that the LORD promised.| 2 Then she gave birth to another child, Abel, Cain's brother. Abel was a shepherd, and Cain was a farmer. 3 Later Cain brought some crops from the land as an offering to the LORD. 4 Abel also brought some choice parts of the firstborn animals from his flock. The LORD approved of Abel and his offering, 5 but he didn't approve of Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry and was disappointed. 6 Then the LORD asked Cain, |Why are you angry, and why do you look disappointed? Genesis 4:1-6, God's Word Translation.
