My note: Note Cain driven from earth to earth??? Ref. Scripture Gen. 4:14

Scripture Genesis 4:8  And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
9  And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?
10  And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.
11  And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand;
12  When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.
13  And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14  Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth;and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.

15  And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
16  And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.
17  And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.

Comment:Noah's Flood happened only in the land where he lived; it was not universal like Lucifer's flood. When the translators called it earth in Genesis chapter 6 verse 7 rather then land they really confused the issue; same as here in verse 14 of chapter 4

H127
àãîä
'a?da?ma?h
ad-aw-maw'
From H119; soil (from its general redness): - country, earth, ground, husband [-man] (-ry),

H776
àøõ
'erets
eh'-rets
From an unused root probably meaning to be firm; the earth (at large, or partitively a land): -  X common, country, earth, field, ground, land, X nations, way, + wilderness, world.

Gen 4:14  would then read Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the country;and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.

Now the verse makes sense Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the country or ground and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth
