- "And Cainª talkedª° withª Abelª his brother:ª and it came to pass,¹ when they were¹ in the field,ª that Cainª rose upª° againstª Abelª his brother,ª and slew¹ him.²° ... And now¹ [art] thou¹ cursedª° from¹ the earth,ª which¹ hath openedª°¹ her mouthª to receiveª° thy brother'sª¹ bloodª from thy hand;ª¹" {Gen 4:8-11} + "And surelyª¹ your bloodª of your livesª will I require;ª° at the handª¹ of every¹ beastª will I require¹ it,²° and at the handª¹ of man;ª at the handª¹ of every man'sª brotherª will I requireª°¹ the lifeª of man.ª ...
