1 Later, Adam had sexual relations with his wife Eve. She became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, |I have given birth to a male child—the LORD.| 2 And she did it again, giving birth to his brother Abel. Abel shepherded flocks and Cain became a farmer. 3 Later, after a while, Cain brought an offering to the LORD from the fruit that he had harvested, 4 while Abel brought the best parts of some of the firstborn from his flock. The LORD looked favorably upon Abel and his offering, 5 but he did not look favorably upon Cain and his offering. When Cain became very upset and depressed, 6 the LORD asked Cain, |Why are you so upset? Why are you depressed? Genesis 4:1-6, Intl. Standard Version. Copyright © 1995-2014 by ISV Foundation.
