9. Afterwards the Lord asked Cain, “Where is Abel?”“How should I know?” he answered. “Am I supposed to look after my brother?”
10. Then the Lord said:Why have you done this terrible thing? You killed your own brother, and his blood flowed on to the ground. Now his blood is calling out for me to punish you.
11. And so, I'll put you under a curse. Because you killed Abel and made his blood run out on the ground, you will never be able to farm the land again.
