Genesis 4:5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 but to Cain and to his offering he did not look with favor. And Cain became very angry, and his face fell. 6 And Yahweh said to Cain, “Why are you angry, and why is your face fallen? 7 If you do well will I not accept you?[a] But if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. And its desire is for you, but you must rule over it.”
