1The man knew Eve his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, “I have gotten a man with Yahweh’s help.”

2Again she gave birth, to Cain’s brother Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.

3As time passed, Cain brought an offering to Yahweh from the fruit of the ground.

4Abel also brought some of the firstborn of his flock and of its fat. Yahweh respected Abel and his offering,

5but he didn’t respect Cain and his offering. Cain was very angry, and the expression on his face fell.
