< Genesis 4 >

1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bore Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.
Lao esa, Adam sungguꞌ no sao na Hawa, de ana nairu. Ana bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa, ma nae, “Ana touꞌ esa dea nema ena, huu LAMATUALAIN tulu-fali au.” De babꞌae e, Kaen (sosoa na ‘dea nema’).
2 And she again bore his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
Basa ma, Hawa bꞌonggi seluꞌ ana touꞌ esa, de babꞌae e Habel. Ruꞌa se raꞌamoko ma, Habel dadꞌi manatadꞌa banda, ma Kaen tao osi.
3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering to the LORD.
Lao esa, Kaen nendi osi na mbule-bꞌoa na ruma, fee LAMATUALAIN.
4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect to Abel and to his offering:
Habel o nendi bibꞌi lombo nara, ana ulu nara. Ana mbau-hala se, ma nendi sisi maloleꞌ neu Lamatualain. Ma LAMATUALAIN rala Na namahoꞌo, huu Habel, ma tutunu-hohotu na.
5 But to Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
Te Ana nda hii Kaen tutunu-hohotu na sa. Naa de, Kaen namanasa, de mata na maꞌalasi.
6 And the LORD said to Cain, Why are you wroth? and why is your countenance fallen?
Boe ma LAMATUALAIN olaꞌ no Kaen nae, “Heh, Kaen! Taꞌo bee de mumunasa, losa mata ma maꞌalasi taꞌo naa?
7 If you do well, shall you not be accepted? and if you do not well, sin lies at the door. And to you shall be his desire, and you shall rule over him.
Mete ma ho tao maloleꞌ, naa, Au simbo nggo no maloleꞌ boe. Te besa-bꞌesa! Mete ma ho tao deꞌulakaꞌ, dei fo deꞌulakaꞌ a naa baliꞌ nggo, onaꞌ meo obꞌo lafo. Dadꞌi mete ma hii mae tao deꞌulakaꞌ, malole lenaꞌ nggari hendi leo!”
8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
Lao esa, Kaen kokoe Habel nae, “Odꞌiꞌ! Uma fo teu lao-laoꞌ sia osi.” Ara losa naa, aiboiꞌ ma, Kaen momoko nisa odꞌi na.
9 And the LORD said to Cain, Where is Abel your brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother’s keeper?
Basa ma LAMATUALAIN natane Kaen nae, “Heh, Kaen! Odꞌi ma saa bee?” Nataa nae, “Au nda bubꞌuluꞌ saꞌ! Mae au mana toꞌu ei na, do?”
10 And he said, What have you done? the voice of your brother’s blood cries to me from the ground.
Te Lamatualain olaꞌ nae, “Taꞌo bee de ho tao deꞌulaka taꞌo naa? Afiꞌ mae ho bisa funi odꞌi ma raa na sia rae a, te Au ita basa ena!
11 And now are you cursed from the earth, which has opened her mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand;
Ia naa huku-dokiꞌ sae nala nggo. Leleꞌ misa odꞌi ma, rae a musi nala raa na. De ia naa, rae a nda fee masodꞌaꞌ neu nggo sa ena.
12 When you till the ground, it shall not from now on yield to you her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shall you be in the earth.
Mete ma ho tao osi, rae a nda fee mbule-bꞌoaꞌ saa-saa saꞌ boe. Mia oras ia, ho koo-kale muu-uma onaꞌ atahori mana toꞌa-taaꞌ sangga masodꞌaꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia.”
13 And Cain said to the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
Te Kaen labꞌan LAMATUALAIN nae, “Awii! Lamatualain, e! Taꞌo bee de huku-doki au bera na seli, losa au nda lemba beꞌi sa!
14 Behold, you have driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from your face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that finds me shall slay me.
Huu Lamatualain oi hendi au sia mamanaꞌ ia, dei fo au uꞌudꞌoodꞌooꞌ mia Lamatualain. Au koo-kale sudꞌiꞌ a bee uu. Ma sudꞌiꞌ a se randaa ro au, naa, tati risa au.”
15 And the LORD said to him, Therefore whoever slays Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark on Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
Te LAMATUALAIN nataa nae, “Nda taꞌo naa sa! Seka tati nisa nggo, naa, Au huku-doki e bera na lenaꞌ lao hitu!” Dei de, LAMATUALAIN tao tatandaꞌ neu Kaen, fo atahori rahine, rae nda bole tao risa e sa.
16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelled in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.
Basa ma, Kaen lao hela mamanaꞌ naa, fo neu naꞌadꞌodꞌoꞌ no LAMATUALAIN. Ana lao losa mamanaꞌ esa sia osi Eden seriꞌ rulu, nara na Nod, sosoa na nae, ‘koo-kale’. Boe ma, ana leo sia naa.
17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bore Enoch: and he built a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.
Basa ma, Kaen sao, de sao na nairu. Ana bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa, de babꞌae e, Henok. Kaen o nafefela kamboꞌ esa, de babꞌae kamboꞌ a Henok, tungga ana na nara na.
18 And to Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech.
Henok ana na, Irad. Ma Irad ana na, Mehuyael. Mehuyael ana na, Metusael. Ma Metusael ana na, Lamek.
19 And Lamech took to him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
Lamek sao na rua. Esa naran Ada, ma esa naran Sila.
20 And Adah bore Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle.
Ada ana ulu na, naran Yabal. Yabal tititi-nonosi nara, dadꞌi manatadꞌa. Ara rasodꞌa lali-laliꞌ, ma leo sia lalaat.
21 And his brother’s name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ.
Yabal odꞌi na, naran Yubal. Yubal tititi-nonosi nara, mana maꞌaminaꞌ lii-liiꞌ mana pake sanar onaꞌ a sasando, ma fuu onaꞌ suling.
22 And Zillah, she also bore Tubalcain, an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah.
Ma Lamek sao na Sila bꞌonggi Tubal Kaen. Tubal Kaen tititi-nonosi nara mana tutu besi. Ara tao sudꞌiꞌ a saa mataꞌ-mataꞌ mia besi ma riti. Tubal Kaen feto na, Naꞌama.
23 And Lamech said to his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; you wives of Lamech, listen to my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
Lao esa, Lamek nananaru ao na mia sao nara ruꞌa se mata nara nae, “Rena, e! Faꞌ ra monetenaꞌ esa tutu au, te au tao isa e.
24 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
Atahori mana tao nisa Kaen, hambu huku-dokiꞌ lao hitu. Te mete ma hambu mana nae nambedꞌaꞌ ralaꞌ no au, ana hambu huku-dokiꞌ lao hitu nulu hitu.”
25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bore a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, has appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
Adam sao na Hawa bonggi ana touꞌ esa fai. De ara babꞌae e, Set, huu Hawa nae, “Lamatualain fee anaꞌ ia nggati Habel, fo Kaen tao nisaꞌ a.”
26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call on the name of the LORD.
Dꞌoo-dꞌoo ma, Set hambu ana touꞌ esa, naran Enos. Leleꞌ naa, atahori ra feꞌe rahine LAMATUALAIN ena, ma beꞌutee neu E.
