Genesis 4
1 And Adam had relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain. “With the help of the LORD I have brought forth a man,” she said.
Iza toga Adam pozna Jevu ženu svoju, a ona zatrudnje i rodi Kajina, i reèe: dobih èovjeka od Gospoda.
2 Later she gave birth to Cain’s brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, while Cain was a tiller of the soil.
I rodi opet brata njegova Avelja. I Avelj posta pastir a Kajin ratar.
3 So in the course of time, Cain brought some of the fruit of the soil as an offering to the LORD,
A poslije nekoga vremena dogodi se, te Kajin prinese Gospodu prinos od roda zemaljskoga;
4 while Abel brought the best portions of the firstborn of his flock. And the LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering,
A i Avelj prinese od prvina stada svojega i od njihove pretiline. I Gospod pogleda na Avelja i na njegov prinos,
5 but He had no regard for Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his countenance fell.
A na Kajina i na njegov prinos ne pogleda. Zato se Kajin rasrdi veoma, i lice mu se promijeni.
6 “Why are you angry,” said the LORD to Cain, “and why has your countenance fallen?
Tada reèe Gospod Kajinu: što se srdiš? što li ti se lice promijeni?
7 If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you refuse to do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires you, but you must master it.”
Neæeš li biti mio, kad dobro èiniš? a kad ne èiniš dobro, grijeh je na vratima. A volja je njegova pod tvojom vlašæu, i ti si mu stariji.
8 Then Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let us go out to the field.” And while they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel and killed him.
Poslije govoraše Kajin s Aveljem bratom svojim. Ali kad bijahu u polju, skoèi Kajin na Avelja brata svojega, i ubi ga.
9 And the LORD said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I do not know!” he answered. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
Tada reèe Gospod Kajinu: gdje ti je brat Avelj? A on odgovori: ne znam; zar sam ja èuvar brata svojega?
10 “What have you done?” replied the LORD. “The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground.
A Bog reèe: šta uèini! glas krvi brata tvojega vièe sa zemlje k meni.
11 Now you are cursed and banished from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
I sada, da si proklet na zemlji, koja je otvorila usta svoja da primi krv brata tvojega iz ruke tvoje.
12 When you till the ground, it will no longer yield its produce to you. You will be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth.”
Kad zemlju uzradiš, neæe ti više davati blaga svojega. Biæeš potukaè i bjegunac na zemlji.
13 But Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.
A Kajin reèe Gospodu: krivica je moja velika da mi se ne može oprostiti.
14 Behold, this day You have driven me from the face of the earth, and from Your face I will be hidden; I will be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.”
Evo me tjeraš danas iz ove zemlje da se krijem ispred tebe, i da se skitam i potucam po zemlji, pa æe me ubiti ko me udesi.
15 “Not so!” replied the LORD. “If anyone slays Cain, then Cain will be avenged sevenfold.” And the LORD placed a mark on Cain, so that no one who found him would kill him.
A Gospod mu reèe: zato ko ubije Kajina, sedam æe se puta to pokajati. I naèini Gospod znak na Kajinu da ga ne ubije ko ga udesi.
16 So Cain went out from the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
I otide Kajin ispred Gospoda, i naseli se u zemlji Naidskoj na istoku prema Edemu.
17 And Cain had relations with his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch. Then Cain built a city and named it after his son Enoch.
I pozna Kajin ženu svoju, a ona zatrudnje i rodi Enoha. I sazida grad i prozva ga po imenu sina svojega Enoh.
18 Now to Enoch was born Irad, and Irad was the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael was the father of Methusael, and Methusael was the father of Lamech.
A Enohu rodi se Gaidad; a Gaidad rodi Maleleila; a Maleleilo rodi Matusala; a Matusal rodi Lameha.
19 And Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah.
I uze Lameh dvije žene: jednoj bješe ime Ada a drugoj Sela.
20 Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and raise livestock.
I Ada rodi Jovila; od njega se narodiše koji žive pod šatorima i stoku pasu.
21 And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play the harp and flute.
A bratu njegovu bješe ime Juval; od njega se narodiše gudaèi i sviraèi.
22 And Zillah gave birth to Tubal-cain, a forger of every implement of bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.
A i Sela rodi Tovela, koji bješe vješt kovati svašta od mjedi i od gvožða; a sestra Tovelu bješe Noema.
23 Then Lamech said to his wives: “Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; wives of Lamech, listen to my speech. For I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.
I reèe Lameh svojima ženama, Adi i Seli: èujte glas moj, žene Lamehove, poslušajte rijeèi moje: ubiæu èovjeka za ranu svoju i mladiæa za masnicu svoju.
24 If Cain is avenged sevenfold, then Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”
Kad æe se Kajin osvetiti sedam puta, Lameh æe sedamdeset i sedam puta.
25 And Adam again had relations with his wife, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, “God has granted me another seed in place of Abel, since Cain killed him.”
A Adam opet pozna ženu svoju, i ona rodi sina, i nadje mu ime Sit, jer mi, reèe, Bog dade drugoga sina za Avelja, kojega ubi Kajin.
26 And to Seth also a son was born, and he called him Enosh. At that time men began to call upon the name of the LORD.
I Situ se rodi sin, kojemu nadjede ime Enos. Tada se poèe prizivati ime Gospodnje.
