Genesis 4:14
v. 14: Cain continues, saying he will be hidden from God’s face, forced to wander as a fugitive, and in danger from anyone who finds him. He feels cut off from God, from his home, and from his family. He is also afraid that others will hate him or try to kill him because of what he did. Even though there were only a few people on earth, Cain is still filled with fear and guilt (Isa. 1:13, 15; Prov. 28:1; Job 15:20-21; Ps. 53:5 a). Some think Cain even wishes for death, but it does not come (Job 3:20-22; Rev. 9:5-6 b).
