Genesis 4
1 And Adam knew Eve his wife: who conceived and brought forth Cain, saying: I have gotten a man through God.
Adam ni a yu Evi a panue teh, camo a vawn. Capa a khe teh, BAWIPA ni na kabawp dawk ca tongpa ka khe ati teh, Kain telah min a phung.
2 And again she brought forth his brother Abel. And Abel was a shepherd, and Cain a husbandman.
Hahoi, a nawngha Abel bout a khe. Abel teh tu kakhoumkung lah ao teh, Kain teh law kasakkung lah ao.
3 And it came to pass after many days, that Cain offered, of the fruits of the earth, gifts to the Lord.
Atueng akuep torei teh, Kain ni amae law thung e a pawhiknaw hah BAWIPA koe a sin.
4 Abel also offered of the firstlings of his flock, and of their fat: and the Lord had respect to Abel, and to his offerings.
Abel ni hai tu pasuek ka khe e hoi, kathâwnaw a sin. Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni Abel hoi a sin e hno teh a dâw pouh.
5 But to Cain and his offerings he had no respect: and Cain was exceedingly angry, and his countenance fell.
Hatei Kain hoi a sin e hno teh dâw pouh hoeh. Hatdawkvah, Kain teh a lung puenghoi a khuek dawkvah minhmai a mathoe.
6 And the Lord said to him: Why art thou angry? and why is thy countenance fallen?
BAWIPA ni Kain koevah, Bangkongmaw na lungkhuek teh minhmai a mathoe.
7 If thou do well, shalt thou not receive? but if ill, shall not sin forthwith be present at the door? but the lust thereof shall be under thee, and thou shalt have dominion over it.
Kahawicalah na sak pawiteh ka dâw mahoeh maw. Kahawicalah na sak hoehpawiteh yon thuengnae sathei teh longkha koe a tabo. Ahnie a ngainae teh nange doeh. Hatei nang ni ahni na uk telah atipouh.
8 And Cain said to Abel his brother: Let us go forth abroad. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and slew him.
Kain ni a nawngha Abel koevah law lah cet sei atipouh. Law a pha roi torei teh Kain ni a nawngha a taran teh a thei.
9 And the Lord said to Cain: Where is thy brother Abel? And he answered, I know not: am I my brother’s keeper?
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni Kain koe, na maw na nawngha Abel te, telah a pacei navah, ahni ni ka panuek hoeh, ka nawngha ka khoum e nahoeh telah atipouh.
10 And he said to him: What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth to me from the earth.
Hahoi, BAWIPA ni bangmaw na sak na nawngha e thi ni talai dawk hoi kai koe a hram toe.
11 Now, therefore, cursed shalt thou be upon the earth, which hath opened her mouth and received the blood of thy brother at thy hand.
Na kut hoi na palawng e na nawngha thi, dâw hanelah apâhni ka ang e talai dawk hoi nang teh atu thoebo lah na o toe.
12 When thou shalt till it, it shall not yield to thee its fruit: a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be upon the earth.
Talai dawk thaw na tawk navah a thaonae nang koe tâcawt mahoeh toe. Nang teh talai vah, ka yawng e tami hoi ka kâva a e tami lah na o han telah atipouh.
13 And Cain said to the Lord: My iniquity is greater than that I may deserve pardon.
Kain ni BAWIPA koevah, reknae ka hmu e heh ka phu thai e hlak a lenhnawn.
14 Behold thou dost cast me out this day from the face of the earth, and I shall be hidden from thy face, and I shall be a vagabond and a fugitive on the earth: every one, therefore, that findeth me, shall kill me.
Sahnin teh talai hoi na pâlei toe ti ka panue. Na hmaitung hoi hro lah ka o toe. Talai van vah ka yawng e hoi yuengyoe kâva e tami lah kaawm vaiteh, ka hmawt e pueng ni na thei han doeh telah atipouh.
15 And the Lord said to him: No, it shall not be so: but whosoever shall kill Cain, shall be punished sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, that whosoever found him should not kill him.
Hatei, BAWIPA ni Kain koe nang ka thet e pueng teh let sari touh hoi a moi ka pathung han atipouh. Hahoi, BAWIPA ni Kain ka hmawt e tami, buet touh ni hai a thei hoeh nahanlah ahni dawk noutnae a ta pouh.
16 And Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and dwelt as a fugitive on the earth, at the east side of Eden.
Hathnukkhu, Kain teh BAWIPA e hmaitung hoi a tâco teh, Eden kanîtholah, Nod ram dawk kho a sak.
17 And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and brought forth Henoch: and he built a city, and called the name thereof by the name of his son Henoch.
Kain ni a yu a panue teh, camo a vawn teh Enok a khe. Kho a thawng teh a capa min lah Enok kho telah min a poe.
18 And Henoch begot Irad, and Irad begot Maviael, and Maviael begot Mathusael, and Mathusael begot Lamech:
Hahoi Enok ni Irad a khe. Irad ni Mehujael a khe. Mehujael ni Methushael a khe. Methushael ni Lamek a khe.
19 Who took two wives: the name of the one was Ada, and the name of the other Sella.
Hathnukkhu, Lamek ni a yu kahni touh a la teh, apasueke min teh Adah, apâhni e min teh Zillah doeh.
20 And Ada brought forth Jabel: who was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of herdsmen.
Adah ni Jabal a khe. Ahni teh rimnaw dawk kho ka sak e lah ao teh saringnaw kapacakung e na pa lah ao.
21 And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of them that play upon the harp and the organs.
A nawngha e min teh Jubal. Ahni teh ratoung hoi vovitnaw ka pâtu e na pa lah ao.
22 Sella also brought forth Tubalcain, who was a hammerer and artificer in every work of brass and iron. And the sister of Tubalcain was Noema.
Zillah ni hai Tubal-kain a khe. Ahni teh rahum hoi sum ka dei pueng e na pa lah ao. Naamah teh Tubal-kain e tawncanu lah ao.
23 And Lamech said to his wives Ada and Sella: Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, hearken to my speech: for I have slain a man to the wounding of myself, and a stripling to my own bruising.
Hahoi, Lamek ni a yu roi Adah hoi Zillah koevah, ka lawk thai roi haw, patawnae na poe dawkvah tongpa buet touh ka thei. Na pacekpahlek dawkvah, thoundoun buet touh ka thei toe.
24 Sevenfold vengeance shall be taken for Cain: but for Lamech seventy times sevenfold.
Kain ni let sari touh e moipathungnae khang pawiteh, Lamek ni teh a let 70 touh hoi a khang han.
25 Adam also knew his wife again: and she brought forth a son, and called his name Seth, saying: God hath given me another seed, for Abel whom Cain slew.
Hahoi, Adam ni a yu bout a panue teh, ca tongpa a khe. Seth telah min a phung. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Kain ni Abel a thei dawkvah Cathut ni alouke cati bout na poe telah ati.
26 But to Seth also was born a son, whom he called Enos; this man began to call upon the name of the Lord.
Seth ni hai capa a khe teh Enosh telah min a phung. Hahoi tami ni Jehovah min kaw han a kamtawng awh.
