1 The man knew Havah his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, “I have gotten a man with the Lord’s help.”
2 Again she gave birth, to Cain’s brother Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
3 As time passed, Cain brought an offering to the Lord from the fruit of the ground.
4 Abel also brought some of the firstborn of his flock and of its fat. The Lord respected Abel and his offering,
5 but he didn’t respect Cain and his offering. Cain was very angry, and the expression on his face fell.
