Genesis 4:13-15

Expanded Bible

¹³ Then Cain said to the Lord, “This punishment is more than I can ·stand [bear]! ¹⁴ Today you have forced me ·to stop working [^Lfrom] the ground, and now I ·must hide from you [or will be hidden from your face]. I ·must wander around [^Lwill be a fugitive and wanderer/homeless wanderer] on the earth, and anyone who ·meets [finds] me can kill me.”

¹⁵ The Lord said to Cain, “No! If anyone kills you, I will ·punish [avenge] that person seven times more.” Then the Lord put a mark [^Cthe nature of the mark is uncertain] on Cain warning anyone who ·met [finds] him not to kill him.
