"And Cain said to the Lord: “My iniquity is too great to deserve kindness. "
— Genesis 4:13, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear.”
“And Cain said unto Jehovah, My punishment is greater than I can bear. ”
“Cain said to Yahweh, "My punishment is greater than I can bear.”
“Then Cain said to the LORD,“My punishment is too great to endure!”
“And Cain said to the Lord: My iniquity is greater than that I may deserve pardon.”
“And Cain said, My punishment is greater than my strength.”
“And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear.”
And he said to him: “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to me from the land.
Now, therefore, you will be cursed upon the land, which opened its mouth and received the blood of your brother at your hand.
When you work it, it will not give you its fruit; a vagrant and a fugitive shall you be upon the land.”
And Cain said to the Lord: “My iniquity is too great to deserve kindness.
Behold, you have cast me out this day before the face of the earth, and from your face I will be hidden; and I will be a vagrant and a fugitive on the earth. Therefore, anyone who finds me will kill me.”
And the Lord said to him: “By no means will it be so; rather, whoever would kill Cain, will be punished sevenfold.” And the Lord placed a seal upon Cain, so that anyone who found him would not put him to death.
And so Cain, departing from the face of the Lord, lived as a fugitive on the earth, toward the eastern region of Eden.
