8 Cain said to Abel, his brother, "Let`s go into the field." It happened, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel, his brother, and killed him.
9 Yahweh said to Cain, "Where is Abel, your brother?" He said, "I don`t know. Am I my brother`s keeper?"
10 Yahweh said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother`s blood cries to me from the ground.
11 Now you are cursed because of the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother`s blood from your hand.
12 From now on, when you till the ground, it won`t yield its strength to you. You shall be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth."
13 Cain said to Yahweh, "My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14 Behold, you have driven me out this day from the surface of the ground. I will be hidden from your face, and I will be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth. It will happen that whoever finds me will kill me."
