Genesis 4:7-9

7 If you do what is right, won’t you be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must rule over it.”(A)
8 Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let’s go out to the field.”[a] And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.(B)
9 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?”
“I don’t know,” he replied. “Am I my brother’s guardian?”
