I Believe that God, when talking about the hands of the beast and the hand of the man He's talking about the seed of beast of the serpent, like Cain was and the generation that followed him. Those that God called into the ark with Noah; two of the unclean the male and his female, and seven of the beast that were called clean the male and female of the seed of Cain.

I will avenge the blood of the murdered upon the murderer. When God requires the life of a man at the hand of him that took it away unjustly, he cannot render that, and therefore must render his own in lieu of it, which is the only way left of making restitution.
