11. So now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive the blood of your brother from your hand.
12. When you till the ground it shall no longer yield its strength to you. You shall be a wanderer and a fugitive on the earth.”
13. And Cain said to Yahweh, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14. Look, you have driven me out today from the face of the ground, and from your face I must hide. I will be a wanderer and a fugitive on the earth, and it will happen that whoever finds me will kill me.”
15. Then Yahweh said to him, “Therefore, whoever kills Cain will be avenged sevenfold.” Then Yahweh put a sign on Cain so that whoever found him would not kill him.
16. And Cain went out from the presence of Yahweh, and he settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17. And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch. And when he built a city he named the city after his son, Enoch.
18. And to Enoch was born Irad, and Irad fathered Mehujael, and Mehujael fathered Methushael, and Methushael fathered Lamech.
19. And Lamech took to himself two wives. The name of the first was Adah, and the name of the second was Zillah.
