Suencuek 4
1 Te phoeiah Adam loh a yuu Eve te a ming. A yuu khaw vawn tih Kain te a cun hatah, “BOEIPA taengkah hlang ka dang coeng,” a ti.
And the man had connection with Eve his wife, and she became with child and gave birth to Cain, and said, I have got a man from the Lord.
2 Te phoeiah Kain kah a mana Abel te pahoi a cun. Te vaengah Abel tah boiva aka dawn la om tih Kain tah lo tawn la om.
Then again she became with child and gave birth to Abel, his brother. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a farmer.
3 A bawtnah khohnin ah BOEIPA taengah khosaa la diklai kah a thaih te Kain loh a khuen.
And after a time, Cain gave to the Lord an offering of the fruits of the earth.
4 Tedae Abel long tah amah kah boiva cacuek neh aka tha te a Khuen van. Te dongah BOEIPA loh Abel so neh anih kah khosaa te a uem pah.
And Abel gave an offering of the young lambs of his flock and of their fat. And the Lord was pleased with Abel's offering;
5 Tedae Kain neh anih kah khosaa te a uem pah pawt dongah Kain te mat sai tih a maelhmai khaw tal.
But in Cain and his offering he had no pleasure. And Cain was angry and his face became sad.
6 Te dongah BOEIPA loh Kain taengah “Nang te balae tih na sai? Te phoeiah balae tih na maelhmai a tal?
And the Lord said to Cain, Why are you angry? and why is your face sad?
7 Doe hamla a then mai moenih a? Na then pawt dongah ni thohka ah tholhnah a kol mai. Tedae a lungdueknah te nang ham om mai cakhaw namah loh a soah taemrhai saw,” a ti nah.
If you do well, will you not have honour? and if you do wrong, sin is waiting at the door, desiring to have you, but do not let it be your master.
8 Tedae Kain loh a mana Abel te kohong la a khue tih a om rhoi vaengah Kain loh a mana Abel te a hnueih tih a ngawn.
And Cain said to his brother, Let us go into the field: and when they were in the field, Cain made an attack on his brother Abel and put him to death.
9 Te dongah BOEIPA loh Kain taengah, “Na mana Abel ta?” a ti nah hatah Kain loh, “Ka ming pawh. Kai loh ka mana ka dawn a?” a ti nah.
And the Lord said to Cain, Where is your brother Abel? And he said, I have no idea: am I my brother's keeper?
10 Te vaengah BOEIPA loh, “Balae na saii? na mana thii ol loh diklai lamkah kai taengla ha pang coeng.
And he said, What have you done? the voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the earth.
11 Te dongah nang kut lamkah na manuca kah thii aka duen ham a ka aka ang diklai lamloh nang tah thae m'phoei thil coeng.
And now you are cursed from the earth, whose mouth is open to take your brother's blood from your hand;
12 Khohmuen te na tawn vaengah nang taengah a thadueng paek ham koei mahpawh. Diklai ah aka hinghuen tih aka rhaehba la na om ni,” a ti nah.
No longer will the earth give you her fruit as the reward of your work; you will be a wanderer in flight over the earth.
13 Tedae Kain loh BOEIPA taengah, “Kai kathaesainah te phueih ham lakah len aih.
And Cain said, My punishment is greater than my strength.
14 Tihnin ah kai he diklai hman neh namah hmuh lamkah nan haek dongah ka thuh uh ni. Tedae aka poeng aka doe ka om phoeiah diklai ah ka pamdah cakhaw kai aka hmu boeih loh kai n'ngawn pawn ni he,” a ti nah.
You have sent me out this day from the face of the earth and from before your face; I will be a wanderer in flight over the earth, and whoever sees me will put me to death.
15 Tedae BOEIPA loh anih taengah, “Kain aka ngawn boeih te tah voei rhih due phulo saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih aka hmu boeih loh anih te ngawn pawt ham Kain soah BOEIPA loh miknoek a paek.
And the Lord said, Truly, if Cain is put to death, seven lives will be taken for his. And the Lord put a mark on Cain so that no one might put him to death.
16 Te dongah Kain tah BOEIPA mikhmuh lamkah cet tih Eden kah khothoeng ben Nodi khohmuen ah kho a sak.
And Cain went away from before the face of the Lord, and made his living-place in the land of Nod on the east of Eden.
17 Te vaengah Kain loh a yuu te a ming. Te dongah pumrhih tih Enok te a cun. Te vaengkah khopuei a thoong tih khopuei ming te a capa ming Enok kho la a khue.
And Cain had connection with his wife and she became with child and gave birth to Enoch: and he made a town, and gave the town the name of Enoch after his son.
18 Te phoeiah Enok loh Irad a sak tih Irad loh Mahujael a sak. Mahujael loh Methusael te a sak. Methusael loh Lamek te a sak.
And Enoch had a son Irad: and Irad became the father of Mehujael: and Mehujael became the father of Methushael: and Methushael became the father of Lamech.
19 Te phoeiah Lamek loh amah ham yuu panit a loh tih pakhat kah a ming tah Adah tih a pabae kah a ming tah Zillah ni.
And Lamech had two wives; the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
20 Te vaengah Adah loh Jabal te a cun tih anih te dap ah kho aka sa tih boiva aka toi rhoek kah pa la om.
And Adah gave birth to Jabal: he was the father of such as are living in tents and keep cattle.
21 Tedae a mana, a ming tah Jubal tih anih te rhotoeng neh phavi aka tum boeih kah a napa la om.
And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all players on instruments of music.
22 Zillah long khaw rhohum neh thi tubael boeih aka hnaa Tubalkain neh Tubalkain kah a ngannu Naamah te khaw a cun.
And Zillah gave birth to Tubal-cain, who is the father of every maker of cutting instruments of brass and iron: and the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.
23 Te vaengah Lamek loh a yuu rhoi Adah neh Zillah taengah, “Lamek yuu rhoi, kai ol he ya rhoi lamtah kai kah olthui he hnakaeng rhoi lah. Kai tloh kong neh ka boengha kongah camoe, hlang pakhat ka ngawn coeng.
And Lamech said to his wives, Adah and Zillah, give ear to my voice; you wives of Lamech, give attention to my words, for I would put a man to death for a wound, and a young man for a blow;
24 Kain ham voei rhih la phu a loh atah Lamek ham khaw voei sawmrhih neh parhih la phuloh pah saeh,” a ti nah.
If seven lives are to be taken as punishment for Cain's death, seventy-seven will be taken for Lamech's.
25 Te phoeiah Adam loh a yuu te koep a ming tih, capa a cun hatah Abel te Kain loh a ngawn coeng dae a yueng la Pathen loh tiingan a tloe kai ham a khueh coeng' a ti dongah anih ming te Seth la a khue.
And Adam had connection with his wife again, and she gave birth to a son to whom she gave the name of Seth: for she said, God has given me another seed in place of Abel, whom Cain put to death.
26 Te phoeiah Seth long khaw capa a sak tih a ming te Enosh a sui. Te vaengah Yahweh ming te phoei ham a tong.
And Seth had a son, and he gave him the name of Enosh: at this time men first made use of the name of the Lord in worship.
