Genesis 4:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had no [a]regard: wherefore Cain was exceedingly wroth and his countenance fell down.
6 Then the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance cast down?
7 If thou do well, shalt thou not be [b]accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the [c]door: also unto thee his [d]desire shall be subject, and thou shalt rule over him.
