And AdamH120 knewH3045+H853 EveH2332 his wifeH802; and she conceivedH2029, and bareH3205+H853 CainH7014, and saidH559, I have gottenH7069 a manH376 fromH854 the LORDH3068. {Cain: that is, Gotten, or, Acquired}
And she againH3254 bareH3205 his brotherH251 AbelH1893. And AbelH1893 was a keeperH7462 of sheepH6629, but CainH7014 was a tillerH5647 of the groundH127. {Abel: Heb. Hebel} {a keeper: Heb. a feeder}
And in processH7093 of timeH3117 it came to pass, that CainH7014 broughtH935 of the fruitH6529 of the groundH127 an offeringH4503 unto the LORDH3068. {in process…: Heb. at the end of days}
And AbelH1893, heH1931 also broughtH935 of the firstlingsH1062 of his flockH6629 and of the fatH2459 thereof. And the LORDH3068 had respectH8159 unto AbelH1893 and to his offeringH4503: {flock: Heb. sheep, or, goats}
But unto CainH7014 and to his offeringH4503 he had not respectH8159. And CainH7014 was veryH3966 wrothH2734, and his countenanceH6440 fellH5307.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto CainH7014, Why art thou wrothH2734? and why is thy countenanceH6440 fallenH5307?
IfH518 thou doest wellH3190, shalt thou not be acceptedH7613? and if thou doest not wellH3190, sinH2403 liethH7257 at the doorH6607. And unto thee shall be his desireH8669, and thou shalt ruleH4910 over him. {be accepted: or, have the excellency} {unto…: or, subject unto thee}
And CainH7014 talkedH559 withH413 AbelH1893 his brotherH251: and it came to pass, when they were in the fieldH7704, that CainH7014 rose upH6965 againstH413 AbelH1893 his brotherH251, and slew himH2026.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto CainH7014, WhereH335 is AbelH1893 thy brotherH251? And he saidH559, I knowH3045 not: Am I my brother'sH251 keeperH8104?
And he saidH559, WhatH4100 hast thou doneH6213? the voiceH6963 of thy brother'sH251 bloodH1818 criethH6817 unto me from the groundH127. {blood: Heb. bloods}
And now art thou cursedH779 from the earthH127, which hath openedH6475 her mouthH6310 to receiveH3947 thy brother'sH251 bloodH1818 from thy handH3027;
WhenH3588 thou tillestH5647 the groundH127, it shall not henceforthH3254 yieldH5414 unto thee her strengthH3581; a fugitiveH5128 and a vagabondH5110 shalt thou be in the earthH776.
And CainH7014 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, My punishmentH5771 is greaterH1419 than I can bearH5375. {My…: or, Mine iniquity is greater than that it may be forgiven}
Behold, thou hast driven me outH1644 this dayH3117 from the faceH6440 of the earthH127; and fromH5921 thy faceH6440 shall I be hidH5641; and I shall be a fugitiveH5128 and a vagabondH5110 in the earthH776; and it shall come to passH1961, that every one that findeth meH4672 shall slay meH2026.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, ThereforeH3651 whosoever slayethH2026 CainH7014, vengeance shall be takenH5358 on him sevenfoldH7659. And the LORDH3068 setH7760 a markH226 upon CainH7014, lestH1115 any findingH4672 him should killH5221 him.
And CainH7014 went outH3318 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, and dweltH3427 in the landH776 of NodH5113, on the eastH6926 of EdenH5731.
And CainH7014 knewH3045 his wifeH802; and she conceivedH2029, and bareH3205 EnochH2585: and he buildedH1129 a cityH5892, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the cityH5892, after the nameH8034 of his sonH1121, EnochH2585. {Enoch: Heb. Chanoch}
And unto EnochH2585 was bornH3205 IradH5897: and IradH5897 begatH3205 MehujaelH4232: and MehujaelH4232 begatH3205 MethusaelH4967: and MethusaelH4967 begatH3205 LamechH3929. {Lamech: Heb. Lemech}
And LamechH3929 tookH3947 unto him twoH8147 wivesH802: the nameH8034 of the oneH259 was AdahH5711, and the nameH8034 of the otherH8145 ZillahH6741.
And AdahH5711 bareH3205 JabalH2989: he was the fatherH1 of such as dwellH3427 in tentsH168, and of such as have cattleH4735.
And his brother'sH251 nameH8034 was JubalH3106: he was the fatherH1 of all such as handleH8610 the harpH3658 and organH5748.
And ZillahH6741, she also bareH3205 TubalcainH8423, an instructerH3913 of every artificerH2794 in brassH5178 and ironH1270: and the sisterH269 of TubalcainH8423 was NaamahH5279. {instructer: Heb. whetter}
And LamechH3929 saidH559 unto his wivesH802, AdahH5711 and ZillahH6741, HearH8085 my voiceH6963; ye wivesH802 of LamechH3929, hearkenH238 unto my speechH565: for I have slainH2026 a manH376 to my woundingH6482, and a young manH3206 to my hurtH2250. {I have…: or, I would slay a man in my wound, etc} {to my hurt: or, in my hurt}
IfH3588 CainH7014 shall be avengedH5358 sevenfoldH7659, truly LamechH3929 seventyH7657 and sevenfoldH7651.
And AdamH120 knewH3045 his wifeH802 againH5750; and she bareH3205 a sonH1121, and calledH7121 his nameH8034 SethH8352: For GodH430, said she, hath appointedH7896 me anotherH312 seedH2233 insteadH8478 of AbelH1893, whomH3588 CainH7014 slewH2026. {Seth: Heb. Sheth: that is Appointed, or, Put}
And to SethH8352, to himH1931 also there was bornH3205 a sonH1121; and he calledH7121 his nameH8034 EnosH583: then began menH2490 to callH7121 upon the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068. {Enos: Heb. Enosh} {to call…: or, to call themselves by the name of the Lord}

And JaredH3382 livedH2421 an hundredH3967 sixtyH8346+H8141 and twoH8147 yearsH8141, and he begatH3205 EnochH2585:
And they saidH559, Go toH3051, let us buildH1129 us a cityH5892 and a towerH4026, whose topH7218 may reach unto heavenH8064; and let us makeH6213 us a nameH8034, lest we be scattered abroadH6327 upon the faceH6440 of the whole earthH776.
Now AbsalomH53 in his lifetimeH2416 had takenH3947 and reared upH5324 for himself a pillarH4678, which is in the king'sH4428 daleH6010: for he saidH559, I have no sonH1121 to keep my nameH8034 in remembranceH2142: and he calledH7121 the pillarH4678 after his own nameH8034: and it is calledH7121 unto this dayH3117, Absalom'sH53 placeH3027.
And EnochH2585 walkedH1980 withH854 GodH430 afterH310 he begatH3205+H853 MethuselahH4968 threeH7969 hundredH3967 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323:
I made me greatH1431 worksH4639; I buildedH1129 me housesH1004; I plantedH5193 me vineyardsH3754:
I madeH6213 me gardensH1593 and orchardsH6508, and I plantedH5193 treesH6086 in them of all kind of fruitsH6529:
I madeH6213 me poolsH1295 of waterH4325, to waterH8248 therewith the woodH3293 that bringeth forthH6779 treesH6086:
I gotH7069 me servantsH5650 and maidensH8198, and had servants bornH1121 in my houseH1004; also I had greatH7235 possessionsH4735 of greatH1241 and small cattleH6629 above all that were in JerusalemH3389 beforeH6440 me: {servants born…: Heb. sons of my house}
I gatheredH3664 me also silverH3701 and goldH2091, and the peculiar treasureH5459 of kingsH4428 and of the provincesH4082: I gatH6213 me men singersH7891 and women singersH7891, and the delightsH8588 of the sonsH1121 of menH120, as musical instrumentsH7705+H7705, and that of all sorts. {musical…: Heb. musical instrument and instruments}
So I was greatH1431, and increasedH3254 more than all that were beforeH6440 me in JerusalemH3389: also my wisdomH2451 remainedH5975 with me.
And whatsoever mine eyesH5869 desiredH7592 I keptH680 not from them, I withheldH4513 not my heartH3820 from any joyH8057; for my heartH3820 rejoicedH8056 in all my labourH5999: and this was my portionH2506 of all my labourH5999.
Then I lookedH6437 on all the worksH4639 that my handsH3027 had wroughtH6213, and on the labourH5999 that I had labouredH5998 to doH6213: and, behold, all was vanityH1892 and vexationH7469 of spiritH7307, and there was no profitH3504 under the sunH8121.
Their inwardH7130 thought is, that their housesH1004 shall continue for everH5769, and their dwellingH4908 places to allH1755 generationsH1755; they callH7121 their landsH127 after their own namesH8034. {all…: Heb. generation and generation}
