⁵ but unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.

⁶ And Jehovah said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?

⁷ If thou doest well, shall it not be lifted up? and if thou doest not well, sin coucheth at the door: and unto thee shall be its desire, but do thou rule over it.

³⁸ Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: abide ye here, and watch with me.

¹⁰ For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, `a repentance' which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

⁶ And in those days men shall seek death, and shall in no wise find it; and they shall desire to die, and death fleeth from them.
