And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand;
Y ahora tú eres maldito y desterrado de la tierra, que ha abierto su boca para recibir la sangre de tu hermano que derramaste.
Caín es maldecido y expulsado de la tierra por haber derramado la sangre de su hermano Abel.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the biblical narrative of Genesis, this verse occurs immediately after Cain murdered his brother Abel out of jealousy because God favored Abel's offering, marking one of the earliest accounts of human sin and its consequences. God is directly addressing Cain and pronouncing a curse, emphasizing that the earth itself has been affected by the bloodshed, as it "opened its mouth" to receive Abel's blood. This reflects the ancient view that violent acts defile the land, a concept rooted in the cultural understanding of the time where the earth was seen as a witness to human actions.
