THE DORE BIBLE.

And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth ? and why
is thy countenance fallen ? If thou doest well, shalt thou not be
accepted ? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And
unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. And
Cain talked with Abel his brother : and it came to pass, when they
were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and
slew him. And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy
brother ? And he said, I know not : Am I my brother’s keeper ?
And he said, What hast thou done ? the voice of thy brother’s blood
crieth unto me from the ground. And now art thou cursed from the
earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood
from thy hand; when thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth
yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou
be in the earth.
Gen. iv. 6—12.
