Biblical References to Vampyres and Cain

Jude

10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they

know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.

11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily

after the error of Ba'laam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of

Co're.

12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you,

feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried

about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead,

plucked up by the roots;

13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars,

to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.

Genesis, chapter 4

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 Caine said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear.

14 Behond, 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 Caine knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare E'noch: and he

builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son,

E'noch.

18 And unto E'noch was born I'rad: and I'rad begat Me-hu'ja-el; and

Me'hu'ja-el begat Methu'sa-el: and Me-thu'sa-el begat La'mech.

19 And La'mech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and

the name of the other Zil'lah.
