I do well to be angry

but for Cain and for his offering He had no regard. So Cain became very angry and his countenance fell.

“O you who tear yourself in your anger—
For your sake is the earth to be abandoned,
Or the rock to be moved from its place?

“Behold, I am insignificant; what can I reply to You?
I lay my hand on my mouth.

Even

It came about when she pressed him daily with her words and urged him, that his soul was annoyed to death.

“For anger slays the foolish man,
And jealousy kills the simple.

Then He *said to them, “My soul is deeply grieved, to the point of death; remain here and keep watch with Me.”

For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death.

And in those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, and death flees from them.
