Genesis 4:14-17
New International Version
14 Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence;(A) I will be a restless wanderer on the earth,(B) and whoever finds me will kill me.”(C)
15 But the Lord said to him, “Not so[a]; anyone who kills Cain(D) will suffer vengeance(E) seven times over.(F)” Then the Lord put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him. 16 So Cain went out from the Lord’s presence(G) and lived in the land of Nod,[b] east of Eden.(H)
17 Cain made love to his wife,(I) and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch. Cain was then building a city,(J) and he named it after his son(K) Enoch.
