Genesis 4:10-12

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁰ And [the Lord] said, What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood is crying to Me from the ground.

¹¹ And now you are cursed by reason of the earth, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s [shed] blood from your hand.

¹² When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield to you its strength; you shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth [in perpetual exile, a degraded outcast].
