the Where-is-Abel exchange at both ends -- Moses 'Where is Abel, thy brother' (comma), Genesis 'Where is Abel thy brother' (none), then 'I know not' and 'Am I my brother's keeper' in each Near-verbatim; divergences are the comma after 'Abel' (Moses) and 'the Lord'/'the LORD' (Genesis prints the divine name in capitals, the LORD).
