English Standard Version (ESV)
4 Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, saying, “I have gottena]">[a] a man with the help of the Lord.” 2 And again, she bore his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain a worker of the ground. 3 In the course of time Cain brought to the Lord an offering of the fruit of the ground, 4 and Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat portions. And the Lord had regard for Abel and his offering, 5 but for Cain and his offering he had no regard. So Cain was very angry, and his face fell. 6 The Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry, and why has your face fallen? 7 If you do well, will you not be accepted?b]">[b] And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is forc]">[c] you, but you must rule over it.”
