< تكوين 4 >
وَعَاشَرَ آدَمُ حَوَّاءَ زَوْجَتَهُ فَحَبِلَتْ، وَوَلَدَتْ ابْناً أَسْمَتْهُ قَايِينَ إِذْ قَالَتْ: «اقْتَنَيْتُ رَجُلاً مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ». | ١ 1 |
And Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and brought forth Cain and said, I have gained a man through God.
ثُمَّ عَادَتْ فَوَلَدَتْ أَخَاهُ هَابِيلَ، وَكَانَ هَابِيلُ رَاعِياً لِلْغَنَمِ. أَمَّا قَايِينُ فَقَدْ عَمِلَ فِي فِلَاحَةِ الأَرْضِ. | ٢ 2 |
And she again bore his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ مُرُورِ أَيَّامٍ أَنْ قَدَّمَ قَايِينُ مِنْ ثِمَارِ الأَرْضِ قُرْبَاناً لِلرَّبِّ، | ٣ 3 |
And it was so after some time that Cain brought of the fruits of the earth a sacrifice to the Lord.
وَقَدَّمَ هَابِيلُ أَيْضاً مِنْ خَيْرَةِ أَبْكَارِ غَنَمِهِ وَأَسْمَنِهَا. فَتَقَبَّلَ الرَّبُّ قُرْبَانَ هَابِيلَ وَرَضِيَ عَنْهُ. | ٤ 4 |
And Abel also brought of the firstborn of his sheep and of his fatlings, and God looked upon Abel and his gifts,
لَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَتَقَبَّلْ قُرْبَانَ قَايِينَ وَلَمْ يَرْضَ عَنْهُ. فَاغْتَاظَ قَايِينُ جِدّاً وَتَجَهَّمَ وَجْهُهُ كَمَداً. | ٥ 5 |
but Cain and his sacrifices he regarded not, and Cain was exceedingly sorrowful and his countenance fell.
فَسَأَلَ الرَّبُّ قَايِينَ: «لِمَاذَا اغْتَظْتَ؟ لِمَاذَا تَجَهَّمَ وَجْهُكَ؟ | ٦ 6 |
And the Lord God said to Cain, Why art thou become very sorrowful and why is thy countenance fallen?
لَوْ أَحْسَنْتَ فِي تَصَرُّفِكَ أَلَا يُشْرِقُ وَجْهُكَ فَرَحاً؟ وَإِنْ لَمْ تُحْسِنِ التَّصَرُّفَ، فَعِنْدَ الْبَابِ خَطِيئَةٌ تَنْتَظِرُكَ، تَتَشَوَّقُ أَنْ تَتَسَلَّطَ عَلَيْكَ، لَكِنْ يَجِبُ أَنْ تَتَحَكَّمَ فِيهَا». | ٧ 7 |
Hast thou not sinned if thou hast brought it rightly, but not rightly divided it? be still, to thee shall be his submission, and thou shalt rule over him.
وَعَادَ قَايِينُ يَتَظَاهَرُ بِالْوُدِّ لأَخِيهِ هَابِيلَ. وَحَدَثَ إِذْ كَانَا مَعاً فِي الْحَقْلِ أَنَّ قَايِينَ هَجَمَ عَلَى أَخِيهِ هَابِيلَ وَقَتَلَهُ. | ٨ 8 |
And Cain said to Abel his brother, Let us go out into the plain; and it came to pass that when they were in the plain Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
وَسَأَلَ الرَّبُّ قَايِينَ: «أَيْنَ أَخُوكَ هَابِيلُ؟» فَأَجَابَ: «لَا أَعْرِفُ. هَلْ أَنَا حَارِسٌ لأَخِي؟» | ٩ 9 |
And the Lord God said to Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? and he said, I know not, am I my brother's keeper?
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لَهُ: «مَاذَا فَعَلْتَ؟ إِنَّ صَوْتَ دَمِ أَخِيكَ يَصْرُخُ إِلَيَّ مِنَ الأَرْضِ. | ١٠ 10 |
And the Lord said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood cries to me out of the ground.
فَمُنْذُ الآنَ، تَحِلُّ عَلَيْكَ لَعْنَةُ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي فَتَحَتْ فَاهَا وَابْتَلَعَتْ دَمَ أَخِيكَ الَّذِي سَفَكَتْهُ يَدُكَ. | ١١ 11 |
And now thou [art] cursed from the earth which has opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand.
عِنْدَمَا تَفْلَحُهَا لَنْ تُعْطِيَكَ خَيْرَهَا، وَتَكُونُ شَرِيداً وَطَرِيداً فِي الأَرْضِ». | ١٢ 12 |
When thou tillest the earth, then it shall not continue to give its strength to thee: thou shalt be groaning and trembling on the earth.
فَقَالَ قَايِينُ لِلرَّبِّ: «عُقُوبَتِي أَعْظَمُ مِنْ أَنْ تُحْتَمَلَ. | ١٣ 13 |
And Cain said to the Lord God, My crime [is] too great for me to be forgiven.
هَا أَنْتَ الْيَوْمَ قَدْ طَرَدْتَنِي عَنْ وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ، وَمِنْ أَمَامِ حَضْرَتِكَ أَخْتَفِي، وَأَكُونُ شَرِيداً طَرِيداً فِي الأَرْضِ، وَيَقْتُلُنِي كُلُّ مَنْ يَجِدُنِي». | ١٤ 14 |
If thou castest me out this day from the face of the earth, and I shall be hidden from thy presence, and I shall be groaning and trembling upon the earth, then it will be that any one that finds me shall slay me.
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لَهُ: «سَأُعَاقِبُ كُلَّ مَنْ يَقْتُلُكَ بِسَبْعَةِ أَضْعَافِ الْعُقُوبَةِ الَّتِي عَاقَبْتُكَ بِها». وَوَسَمَ الرَّبُّ قَايِينَ بِعَلَامَةٍ تَحْظُرُ عَلَى مَنْ يَلْقَاهُ اغْتِيَالَهُ. | ١٥ 15 |
And the Lord God said to him, Not so, any one that slays Cain shall suffer seven-fold vengeance; and the Lord God set a mark upon Cain that no one that found him might slay him.
وَهَكَذَا خَرَجَ قَايِينُ مِنْ حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ وَسَكَنَ فِي أَرْضِ نُودٍ شَرْقِيَّ عَدْنٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
So Cain went forth from the presence of God and dwelt in the land of Nod over against Edem.
وَعَاشَرَ قَايِينُ زَوْجَتَهُ فَحَبِلَتْ وَأَنْجَبَتِ ابْناً دَعَاهُ «حَنُوكَ». وَكَانَ قَايِينُ آنَئِذٍ يَبْنِي مَدِينَةً فَسَمَّاهَا «حَنُوكَ» عَلَى اسْمِ ابْنِهِ. | ١٧ 17 |
And Cain knew his wife, and having conceived she bore Enoch; and he built a city; and he named the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
ثُمَّ وَلَدَ حَنُوكُ عِيرَادَ، وَوَلَدَ عِيرَادُ مَحُويَائِيلَ، وَوَلَدَ مَحُويَائِيلُ مَتُوشَائِيلَ، وَوَلَدَ مَتُوشَائِيلُ لَامَكَ. | ١٨ 18 |
And to Enoch was born Gaidad; and Gaidad begot Maleleel; and Maleleel begot Mathusala; and Mathusala begot Lamech.
وَتَزَوَّجَ لَامَكُ امْرَأَتَيْنِ: اسْمُ الْوَاحِدَةِ عَادَةُ، وَاسْمُ الأُخْرَى صِلَّةُ. | ١٩ 19 |
And Lamech took to himself two wives; the name of the one was Ada, and the name of the second Sella.
وَوَلَدَتْ عَادَةُ كُلًّا مِنْ «يَابَالَ» أَوَّلِ رُعَاةِ الْمَوَاشِي وَسَاكِنِي الْخِيَامِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And Ada bore Jobel; he was the father of those that dwell in tents, feeding cattle.
وَأَخِيهِ يُوبَالَ أَوَّلِ الْعَازِفِينَ بِالْعُودِ وَالْمِزْمَارِ. | ٢١ 21 |
And the name of his brother was Jubal; he it was who invented the psaltery and harp.
وَوَلَدَتْ صِلَّةُ «تُوبَالَ قَايِينَ» أَوَّلَ صَانِعِي آلَاتِ النُّحَاسِ وَالْحَدِيدِ. كَمَا وَلَدَتْ «نَعْمَةَ» أُخْتَ تُوبَالَ قَايِينَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And Sella also bore Thobel; he was a smith, a manufacturer both of brass and iron; and the sister of Thobel was Noëma.
وَقَالَ لَامَكُ لِزَوْجَتَيْهِ: «يَا عَادَةُ وَصِلَّةُ، اسْمَعَا قَوْلِي، يَا زَوْجَتَيْ لَامَكَ أَصْغِيَا لِكَلَامِي: إِنِّي قَتَلْتُ رَجُلاً جَرَحَنِي وَشَابّاً كَسَرَنِي. | ٢٣ 23 |
And Lamech said to his wives, Ada and Sella, Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, consider my words, because I have slain a man to my sorrow and a youth to my grief.
فَإِنْ كَانَ يُنْتَقَمُ لِقَايِينَ سَبْعَةَ أَضْعَافٍ، فَإِنَّهُ يُنْتَقَمُ لِلَامَكَ سَبْعَةً وَسَبْعِينَ ضِعْفاً». | ٢٤ 24 |
Because vengeance has been exacted seven times on Cain's behalf, on Lamech's [it shall be] seventy times seven.
وَعَاشَرَ آدَمُ زَوْجَتَهُ حَوَّاءَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى فَأَنْجَبَتْ لَهُ ابْناً أَسْمَتْهُ «شِيثاً» إِذْ قَالَتْ: «قَدْ عَوَّضَنِي اللهُ نَسْلاً آخَرَ عِوَضاً عَنْ هَابِيلَ الَّذِي قَتَلَهُ قَايِينُ». | ٢٥ 25 |
And Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore a son, and called his name Seth, saying, For God has raised up to me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
وَوُلِدَ لِشِيثٍ أَيْضاً ابْنٌ سَمَّاهُ أَنُوشَ وَعَنْدَئِذٍ ابْتَدَأَ النَّاسُ يَدْعُونَ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And Seth had a son, and he called his name Enos: he hoped to call on the name of the Lord God.
