I mean the son of Adam - the one who killed his
brother Abel. Here's what the bible says:
3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain
brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat
thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:
5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very
wroth, and his countenance fell.
6 And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance
fallen?
7 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.
8 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.
9 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know
not: Am I my brother's keeper?
10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth
unto me from the ground.
11 And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to
receive thy brother's blood from thy hand;
12 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. Genesis: 4
