After God's discovery of Cain's murder of his brother Abel, we find God punishment of Cain included a mark to protect him.
Genesis 4:13-15 (New International Version)
13 Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is more than I can bear. 14 Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me."
15 But the LORD said to him, "Not so ; if anyone kills Cain, he will suffer vengeance seven times over." Then the LORD put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him.
What was this mark?
