Genesis 4:6-8

Good News Translation

⁶ Then the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why that scowl on your face? ⁷ If you had done the right thing, you would be smiling;^[a] but because you have done evil, sin is crouching at your door. It wants to rule you, but you must overcome it.”

^8 (A)Then Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let's go out in the fields.”^[b] When they were out in the fields, Cain turned on his brother and killed him.
