Answer
The answer to the Whom God asked "Why art thou wroth? And why is thy countenance fallen?" NYT crossword clue is "CAIN."
In the Bible, God asks Cain, "Why art thou wroth? And why is thy countenance fallen?" in Genesis 4:6, after Cain becomes angry and dejected because God favored his brother Abel's offering over his own. This question highlights God's attempt to counsel Cain and encourage self-reflection before sin takes hold.
God warns Cain that if he does well, he will be accepted, but if not, sin is "crouching at the door" and desires to dominate him, though he must rule over it. Despite this warning, Cain allows his anger and jealousy to lead him to commit the first murder by killing Abel. The passage serves as a lesson on managing emotions, personal accountability, and resisting sinful impulses.
