So the Lord said to Cain, \u201cWhy are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.\u201d Now Cain talked with Abel his brother; and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him. Then the Lord said to Cain, \u201cWhere is Abel your brother?\u201d He said, \u201cI do not know. Am I my brother\u2019s keeper?\u201d And He said, \u201cWhat have you done? The voice of your brother\u2019s blood cries out to Me from the ground. So now you are cursed from the earth, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother\u2019s blood from your hand. When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield its strength to you. A fugitive and a vagabond you shall be on the earth.\u201d And Cain said to the Lord, \u201cMy punishment is greater than I can bear! Surely You have driven me out this day from the face of the ground; I shall be hidden from Your face; I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, and it will happen that anyone who finds me will kill me.\u201d And the Lord said to him, \u201cTherefore, whoever kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold.\u201d And the Lord set a mark on Cain, lest anyone finding him should kill him.\nGenesis 4:6\u202d-\u202c15 NKJV\n\n\n--- \n\nSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pastor-lucy-paynter/support
