Genesis 4:3-7

New King James Version

³ And ^[a]in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit ^(A)of the ground to the Lord. ⁴ Abel also brought of ^(B)the firstborn of his flock and of ^(C)their fat. And the Lord ^(D)respected Abel and his offering, ⁵ but He did not respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell.

⁶ So the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? ⁷ If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is ^[b]for you, but you should rule over it.”
