After God had cast Adam and Eve out of the garden, Eve became pregnant, and she gave birth to a son. They named the boy Cain. Later, Eve gave birth to another son named Abel.
Cain grew up and became a farmer. Abel grew up and became a shepherd. One day they both brought sacrifices to God. Cain brought an offering from his garden, some fruits and vegetables. Abel brought fat portions from the first born from his sheep. He sacrificed them and the blood poured out.
God accepted the sacrifice of Abel but he did not accept the sacrifice of Cain. And Cain became very angry. God said to Cain, “Why are you angry? If you do the right thing, I will accept you. But if you do the wrong thing, sin is crouching at your door. It wants to attack you but you must defeat it.”
Later Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let’s go into the fields.” While they were walking in the fields, Cain killed Abel and left.
After that, God said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?”
Cain said, “I do not know. Am I the one who takes care of him?”
Then God said, “The blood of your brother cries out to me from the ground! You are cursed! The ground will not produce for you. You must leave this place and wander over the earth.”
Cain said, “Oh, this is too hard for me! You have cast me away from the land. You have cast me away from your presence and if anyone sees me, he will kill me!”
Then God put a mark on Cain and said, “If anyone hurts you, I will repay to him seven times.”
Then Cain went out and wandered from place to place.
And Adam and Eve had another son named Seth to replace Abel who was dead.
Cain had children; they were wicked, and did not worship God. Seth’s family did worship God.
And that is the end of the story.
