Genesis 4:15-17

Good News Translation

¹⁵ But the Lord answered, “No. If anyone kills you, seven lives will be taken in revenge.” So the Lord put a mark on Cain to warn anyone who met him not to kill him. ¹⁶ And Cain went away from the Lord's presence and lived in a land called “Wandering,” which is east of Eden.
