Genesis 4:14 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 4:14

12 When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield its strength to you. A fugitive and a vagabond you shall be on the earth.”

13 And Cain said to the Lord, “My¹ punishment is greater than I can bear!

14 Surely You have driven me out this day from the face of the ground; ^aI shall be ^bhidden from Your face; I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, and it will happen that ^canyone who finds me will kill me.”

15 And the Lord said to him,¹ “Therefore, whoever kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him ^asevenfold.” And the Lord set a ^bmark on Cain, lest anyone finding him should kill him.

16 Then Cain ^awent out from the ^bpresence of the Lord and dwelt in the land of¹ Nod on the east of Eden.
