Genesis 4:8 in Context — Genesis 4
6 Então o SENHOR disse a Caim: Por que te irritaste, e por que o teu semblante descaiu?
7 Se bem fizeres, não serás aceito? E se não fizeres bem, o pecado está à porta; contra ti será o seu desejo, porém tu deves dominá-lo.
8 Depois Caim falou a seu irmão Abel; e aconteceu que, estando eles no campo, Caim se levantou contra seu irmão Abel, e o matou.
9 E o SENHOR disse a Caim: Onde está teu irmão Abel? E ele respondeu: Não sei; sou eu guarda do meu irmão?
10 E ele lhe disse: Que fizeste? A voz do sangue do teu irmão clama a mim desde a terra.
