And unto°
thee [shall be] his desire,°
and thou°
shalt rule°°
over him. |

4:12
When°
thou tillest°°°
the ground,°
it shall not°
henceforth°°

[is] greater°
than I can bear.°°° |
|
4:14
If thou castest me out this day from the face of the earth, and I shall be hidden from thy presence, and I shall be groaning and trembling upon the earth, then it will be that any one that finds me shall slay me. |

thou hast driven me out°°°
this day°
from°°
the face°
of the earth;°
and from°
thy face°°

that findeth°
me°°
shall slay°
me.°° |

unto him, Therefore°
whosoever°
slayeth°°

lest°
any°
finding°°
him should kill°°
