The Lord asked Cain, "Why are you angry? Why do you look so unhappy?
And now you will be cursed in your work with the ground, the same ground where your brother's blood fell and where your hands killed him.
You will work the ground, but it will not grow good crops for you anymore, and you will wander around on the earth."
Then Cain said to the Lord , "This punishment is more than I can stand!
Today you have forced me to stop working the ground, and now I must hide from you. I must wander around on the earth, and anyone who meets me can kill me."
The Lord said to Cain, "No! If anyone kills you, I will punish that person seven times more." Then the Lord put a mark on Cain warning anyone who met him not to kill him.
So Cain went away from the Lord and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
Adah gave birth to Jabal, who became the first person to live in tents and raise cattle.
If Cain's killer is punished seven times, then Lamech's killer will be punished seventy-seven times."
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the Lord commanded me at that time,.... When the ten commandments were delivered on Mount Sinai, and Moses was ordered to come up to God in the mount:
to teach you statutes and judgments; laws ceremonial and judicial, besides the ten commands given them:
that ye may do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it; the land of Canaan, which was on the other side of Jordan, and over which they must go in order to possess it; and when they came there, they were to hold the possession of it by attending to those laws which forbad the sins for which the old inhabitants of it were expelled out of it; and besides these, there were also several laws, both ceremonial and judicial, which were to be peculiarly observed in the land, as well as others they were obliged to do while without it.
