Genesis 4:15-17

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ But the Lord said to him, “No. Anyone who kills you will be paid back seven times.” The Lord put a mark on Cain. Then anyone who found him wouldn’t kill him. ¹⁶ So Cain went away from the Lord. He lived in the land of Nod. It was east of Eden.

¹⁷ Cain loved his wife and slept with her. She became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch. At that time Cain was building a city. He named it after his son Enoch.
