And Cain said to his brother, Let us go into the field: and when they were in the field, Cain made an attack on his brother Abel and put him to death.

And said, If Esau, meeting one group, makes an attack on them, the others will get away safely.

Be my saviour from the hand of Esau, my brother: for my fear is that he will make an attack on me, putting to death mother and child.

So they went on their journey: and the fear of God was on the towns round about, so that they made no attack on the sons of Jacob.
