Genesis 4:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Adam had sexual relations with his wife Eve. She became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She named him Cain. Eve said, "With the Lord's help, I have made a man!"
2 Eve gave birth again to Cain's brother Abel. Abel became a shepherd, and Cain became a farmer.
3 At harvest time, Cain brought a gift to the Lord. He brought some of the food that he grew from the ground, but Abel brought some animals from his flock. He chose some of his best sheep and brought the best parts from them. The Lord accepted Abel and his gift.
4 vnumber="4">
5 But he did not accept Cain and his offering. Cain was sad because of this, and he became very angry.
6 The Lord asked Cain, "Why are you angry? Why does your face look sad?
7 You know that if you do what is right, I will accept you. But if you don't, sin is ready to attack you. That sin will want to control you, but you must control it."
8 Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." So they went to the field. Then Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
9 Later, the Lord said to Cain, "Where is your brother Abel?" Cain answered, "I don't know. Is it my job to watch over my brother?"
10 Then the Lord said, "What have you done? You killed your brother and the ground opened up to take his blood from your hands. Now his blood is shouting to me from the ground. So you will be cursed from this ground.
11 vnumber="11">
12 Now when you work the soil, the ground will not help your plants grow. You will not have a home in this land. You will wander from place to place."
13 Then Cain said, "This punishment is more than I can bear!
14 You are forcing me to leave the land, and I will not be able to be near you or have a home! Now I must wander from place to place, and anyone I meet could kill me."
15 Then the Lord said to Cain, "No, if anyone kills you, I will punish that person much, much more." Then the Lord put a mark on Cain to show that no one should kill him.
16 Cain went away from the Lord and lived in the land of Nod.
17 Cain had sexual relations with his wife. She became pregnant and gave birth to a son named Enoch. Cain built a city and gave the city the same name as his son Enoch.
18 Enoch had a son named Irad. Irad had a son named Mehujael. Mehujael had a son named Methushael. And Methushael had a son named Lamech.
19 Lamech married two women. One wife was named Adah, and the other wife was named Zillah.
20 Adah gave birth to Jabal. Jabal was the father of people who live in tents and earn their living by keeping cattle.
21 Jabal was Jubal's brother. Jubal was the father of people who play the harp and flute.
22 Zillah gave birth to Tubal-Cain. Tubal-Cain was the father of people who work with bronze and iron. The sister of Tubal-Cain was named Naamah.
23 Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice! You wives of Lamech, listen to me. A man hurt me, so I killed him. I even killed a child for hitting me.
24 The punishment for killing Cain was very bad. But the punishment for killing me will be many times worse!"
25 Adam again had sexual relations with his wife, and she gave birth to another son. She named him Seth. Eve said, "God has given me another son. Cain killed Abel, but now I have Seth."
26 Seth also had a son. He named him Enosh. At that time the people began to pray to the Lord.
1 And Adam H121 knew H3045 H853 Eve H2332 his wife; H802 and she conceived, H2029 and bore H3205 H853 Cain, H7014 and said, H559 I have gotten H7069 a man H376 from H854 the LORD. H3068
2 And she again H3254 bore H3205 H853 his brother H251 H853 Abel. H1893 And Abel H1893 was H1961 a keeper H7462 of sheep, H6629 but Cain H7014 was H1961 a tiller H5647 of the ground. H127
3 And in process H4480 H7093 of time H3117 it came to pass, H1961 that Cain H7014 brought H935 of the fruit H4480 H6529 of the ground H127 an offering H4503 unto the LORD. H3068
4 And Abel, H1893 he H1931 also H1571 brought H935 of the firstlings H4480 H1062 of his flock H6629 and of the fat H4480 H2459 thereof . And the LORD H3068 had respect H8159 unto H413 Abel H1893 and to H413 his offering: H4503
5 But unto H413 Cain H7014 and to H413 his offering H4503 he had not respect H8159 H3808 . And Cain H7014 was very H3966 wroth, H2734 and his countenance H6440 fell. H5307
6 And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Cain, H7014 Why H4100 art thou wroth H2734 ? and why H4100 is thy countenance H6440 fallen H5307 ?
7 If H518 thou doest well, H3190 shalt thou not H3808 be accepted H7613 ? and if H518 thou doest not H3808 well, H3190 sin H2403 lieth H7257 at the door. H6607 And unto H413 thee shall be his desire, H8669 and thou H859 shalt rule H4910 over him.
8 And Cain H7014 talked H559 with H413 Abel H1893 his brother: H251 and it came to pass, H1961 when they were H1961 in the field, H7704 that Cain H7014 rose up H6965 against H413 Abel H1893 his brother, H251 and slew H2026 him.
9 And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Cain, H7014 Where H335 is Abel H1893 thy brother H251 ? And he said, H559 I know H3045 not: H3808 Am I H595 my brother's H251 keeper H8104 ?
10 And he said, H559 What H4100 hast thou done H6213 ? the voice H6963 of thy brother's H251 blood H1818 crieth H6817 unto H413 me from H4480 the ground. H127
11 And now H6258 art thou H859 cursed H779 from H4480 the earth, H127 which H834 hath opened H6475 H853 her mouth H6310 to receive H3947 thy brother's H251 H853 blood H1818 from thy hand H4480 H3027 ;
12 When H3588 thou tillest H5647 H853 the ground, H127 it shall not H3808 henceforth H3254 yield H5414 unto thee her strength; H3581 a fugitive H5128 and a vagabond H5110 shalt thou be H1961 in the earth. H776
13 And Cain H7014 said H559 unto H413 the LORD, H3068 My punishment H5771 is greater H1419 than I can bear H4480 H5375 .
14 Behold H2005 , thou hast driven me out H1644 H853 this day H3117 from H4480 H5921 the face H6440 of the earth; H127 and from thy face H4480 H6440 shall I be hid; H5641 and I shall be H1961 a fugitive H5128 and a vagabond H5110 in the earth; H776 and it shall come to pass, H1961 that every one H3605 that findeth H4672 me shall slay H2026 me.
15 And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto him, Therefore H3651 whosoever H3605 slayeth H2026 Cain, H7014 vengeance shall be taken H5358 on him sevenfold. H7659 And the LORD H3068 set H7760 a mark H226 upon Cain, H7014 lest H1115 any H3605 finding H4672 him should kill H5221 him.
16 And Cain H7014 went out H3318 from the presence H4480 H6440 of the LORD, H3068 and dwelt H3427 in the land H776 of Nod, H5113 on the east H6926 of Eden. H5731
17 And Cain H7014 knew H3045 H853 his wife; H802 and she conceived, H2029 and bore H3205 H853 Enoch: H2585 and he built H1961 H1129 a city, H5892 and called H7121 the name H8034 of the city, H5892 after the name H8034 of his son, H1121 Enoch. H2585
18 And unto Enoch H2585 was born H3205 H853 Irad: H5897 and Irad H5897 begot H3205 H853 Mehujael: H4232 and Mehujael H4232 begot H3205 H853 Methusael: H4967 and Methusael H4967 begot H3205 H853 Lamech. H3929
19 And Lamech H3929 took H3947 unto him two H8147 wives: H802 the name H8034 of the one H259 was Adah, H5711 and the name H8034 of the other H8145 Zillah. H6741
20 And Adah H5711 bore H3205 H853 Jabal: H2989 he H1931 was H1961 the father H1 of such as dwell H3427 in tents, H168 and of such as have cattle. H4735
21 And his brother's H251 name H8034 was Jubal: H3106 he H1931 was H1961 the father H1 of all H3605 such as handle H8610 the harp H3658 and organ. H5748
22 And Zillah, H6741 she H1931 also H1571 bore H3205 H853 Tubal- H8423 cain , an instructor H3913 of every H3605 artificer H2794 in brass H5178 and iron: H1270 and the sister H269 of Tubal- H8423 cain was Naamah. H5279
23 And Lamech H3929 said H559 unto his wives, H802 Adah H5711 and Zillah, H6741 Hear H8085 my voice; H6963 ye wives H802 of Lamech, H3929 hearken H238 unto my speech: H565 for H3588 I have slain H2026 a man H376 to my wounding, H6482 and a young man H3206 to my hurt. H2250
24 If H3588 Cain H7014 shall be avenged H5358 sevenfold, H7659 truly Lamech H3929 seventy H7657 and sevenfold. H7651
25 And Adam H121 knew H3045 H853 his wife H802 again; H5750 and she bore H3205 a son, H1121 and called H7121 his H853 name H8034 Seth: H8352 For H3588 God, H430 said she , hath appointed H7896 me another H312 seed H2233 instead of H8478 Abel, H1893 whom Cain H7014 slew. H2026
26 And to Seth, H8352 to him H1931 also H1571 there was born H3205 a son; H1121 and he called H7121 H853 his name H8034 Enos: H583 then H227 began H2490 men to call H7121 upon the name H8034 of the LORD. H3068
