Zani Odam obistar shudu Qobilu khoharashro zoyid. Dar dafai duyum niz, ki obistan shud, Hobil va khoharashro zoyid. In chahor farzand dar panohi padaru modari mehrubon va dilsuz kam-kam buzurg shudand. Qobil ba ziroat mashgul shudu Hobil chuponi mekard. Dukhtarho ham zeri nazari modar korhoi khonadori meomukhtand., to in ki bachaho buzurg shudand. Dar in hangom Hudovand ba Odam farmud, ki vasiyati khudro ba Hobil bisuporad. Zero Hobil bo on ki kuchaktar az Qobil bud, az barodarash oqiltaru boimontar bud.
Hobil farzande bud harfshunav, ki ehtiromi padaru modarro doshtu farmoni khudovand va onhro qabul mekard, zero medonist, ki parvardigor mehrubonu dilsuzi insonhost va dasturhoi u baroi khushbakhtii mardum ast. Az in ru guft: «Mann baroi itoati farmoni khudo omadaam». Ammo Qobil, ki pisare bud badakhloq, farmoni padaru modarro itoat namekard, dar in hangom ham az farmoni khudo niz sar boz zadu guft:
«Agar in korro anjom bidihed, Hobili barodaramro mekusham». Odam az Hudovand khost, to uro dar halli in mushkil rohnamoi bikunad va naguzorad, ki du barodar dushmani ham bishavand. Hudovand amr farmud, ki har yak pisaron qurboni peshgohi ilohi taqdim bikunand. Pas quurbonii har kas qabul shud, haq bo ust. Hobil shuture az behtarin shuturoni khudro intikhob kardu Qobil mushte gandum, ki khele ham khub nabud, intikhob namud va baroi qurboni omoda shudand.
Qurbonii Hobil qabul shudu qurbonii Qobil qabuli ilohi nashud, zero Hobil farmonbardori khudovand bud, vale Qobil bo dasturoti parvardigor amal namekard. Qobil farzandi hasudu kinaju, dushmanii barodarro dar dil girift va muntaziri fursate bud to uro bikushad.
Hobil ba u guft: «Ey Qobil, barodari azizam! Agar qurbonii tu qabul nashuda, taqsiri mann nest. Gunoh az akhloqi khudat ast. Tu agar farmonbardori khudovu padaru modar boshi, khudo niz turo dust khohad dosht va khohishhoyatro qabul khohad kard». Vale Qobil oqibat barodari khudro kusht va khudro dar dunyovu okhiratbadbakht kard.
Qobil pas az kushtani Hobil namedonist, ki uro dar kujo pinhon kunad, to in ki khudovand du zogro firistod, ki nazdi Qobil mashguli zadukhurd shudand va pas az jangi mufassale yake az onho digarero kusht. Sipas, bo nulash khoki zaminro kandu on zogro zeri khok pinhod namud. Qobil niz yod girift, ki inson pas murdan yo kushta shudan boyad dar khok dafn bishavad.
Hobil avvalin kasse bud, ki dar rui zamin kushta shud.
