Genesis 4
1 Afterward the man knew Heuah his wife, which conceiued and bare Kain, and said, I haue obteined a man by the Lord.
Ary Adama nahalala an’ i Eva vadiny; dia nanan’ anaka Eva ka niteraka an’ i Kaina, ary hoy izy: Efa nahazo zazalahy tamin’ i Jehovah aho.
2 And againe she brought foorth his brother Habel, and Habel was a keeper of sheepe, and Kain was a tiller of the ground.
Ary niteraka an’ i Abela rahalahiny koa izy. Ary Abela dia mpiandry ondry, fa Kaina kosa mpiasa tany.
3 And in processe of time it came to passe, that Kain brought an oblation vnto the Lord of the fruite of the ground.
Ary rehefa afaka elaela, dia nitondran’ i Kaina ny vokatry ny tany ho fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah;
4 And Habel also him selfe brought of the first fruites of his sheepe, and of the fat of them, and the Lord had respect vnto Habel, and to his offering,
fa nitondran’ i Abela kosa ny voalohan-terak’ ondriny, dia izay matavy. Ary Jehovah nankasitraka an’ i Abela mbamin’ ny fanatiny;
5 But vnto Kain and to his offering he had no regarde: wherefore Kain was exceeding wroth, and his countenance fell downe.
fa Kaina mbamin’ ny fanatiny kosa tsy mba nankasitrahany. Dia tezitra indrindra Kaina, sady nanjombona ny tarehiny.
6 Then ye Lord said vnto Kain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance cast downe?
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Kaina: Nahoana no tezitra ianao? Ary nahoana no manjombona ny tarehinao?
7 If thou do well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sinne lieth at the doore: also vnto thee his desire shalbe subiect, and thou shalt rule ouer him.
Raha tsara toetra ianao, moa tsy ho miramirana va? Fa raha tsy tsara toetra kosa ianao, dia mamitsaka eo am-baravarana ny ota; ary ianao no kendren’ ny faniriany, kanefa ianao no tokony hanapaka azy.
8 Then Kain spake to Habel his brother. And when they were in the fielde, Kain rose vp against Habel his brother, and slewe him.
Ary Kaina niteny tamin’ i Abela rahalahiny; ary nony tany an-tsaha izy mirahalahy, dia nitsangana Kaina nanatona an’ i Abela rahalahiny, ka namono azy.
9 Then the Lord said vnto Kain, Where is Habel thy brother? Who answered, I cannot tell. Am I my brothers keeper?
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Kaina: Aiza Abela rahalahinao? Fa hoy izy: Asa; moa mpitandrina ny rahalahiko va aho?
10 Againe he said, What hast thou done? the voyce of thy brothers blood cryeth vnto me from the earth.
Ary hoy Izy: Inona no nataonao? Ny feon’ ny ran’ ny rahalahinao mitaraina amiko avy amin’ ny tany.
11 Now therefore thou art cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receiue thy brothers blood from thine hand.
Ary ankehitriny dia voaozona ianao hiala amin’ ny tany onenana, izay nivava hitelina ny ran’ ny rahalahinao nalatsaky ny tananao.
12 When thou shalt till the grounde, it shall not henceforth yeelde vnto thee her strength: a vagabond and a runnagate shalt thou be in the earth.
Raha miasa ny tany ianao, tsy mba hahavokatra ho anao intsony izy; ho mpanjenjena sy mpirenireny eny ambonin’ ny tany ianao.
13 Then Kain said to the Lord, My punishment is greater, then I can beare.
Dia hoy Kaina tamin’ i Jehovah: Lehibe ny valin’ ny heloko mihoatra noho izay zakako.
14 Behold, thou hast cast me out this day from the earth, and from thy face shall I be hid, and shalbe a vagabond, and a runnagate in the earth, and whosoeuer findeth me, shall slay me.
Indro, efa noroahinao hiala amin’ ny tany onenana aho androany; dia hiery ny tavanao aho ary ho mpanjenjena sy mpirenireny eny ambonin’ ny tany; koa na iza na iza hahita ahy dia hamono ahy.
15 Then the Lord said vnto him, Doubtlesse whosoeuer slayeth Kain, he shalbe punished seue folde. And the Lord set a marke vpon Kain, lest any man finding him should kill him.
Ary hoy Jehovah taminy: Noho izany na iza na iza hamono an’ i Kaina, dia hovaliana fito eny izy. Ary Jehovah nanao famantarana ho an’ i Kaina; mba tsy hisy hamono azy izay rehetra hahita azy.
16 Then Kain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod towarde the Eastside of Eden.
Ary Kaina dia niala teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ka nonina tao amin’ ny tany Noda tandrifin’ i Edena.
17 Kain also knewe his wife, which conceiued and bare Henoch: and he built a citie, and called the name of the citie by ye name of his sonne, Henoch.
Ary Kaina nahalala ny vadiny, dia nanan’ anaka ravehivavy ka niteraka an’ i Enoka; ary nanorina vohitra Kaina, ka ny anaran’ ny vohitra dia nataony hoe Enoka, araka ny anaran’ ny zananilahy.
18 And to Henoch was borne Irad, and Irad begate Mehuiael, and Mehuiael begate Methushael, and Methushael begate Lamech.
Ary Enoka niteraka an’ Irada; ary Irada niteraka an’ i Mehojaela; ary Mehojaela niteraka an’ i Metosaela; ary Metosaela niteraka an’ i Lameka.
19 And Lamech tooke him two wiues: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
Ary Lameka nampirafy roa: ny anaran’ ny anankiray Ada, ary ny anaran’ ny anankiray Zila.
20 And Adah bare Iabal, who was the father of such as dwell in the tents, and of such as haue cattell.
Ary Ada niteraka an’ i Jabala; izy no rain’ ny mpitoetra an-day, mpiandry omby aman’ ondry.
21 And his brothers name was Iubal, who was the father of all that play on the harpe and organes.
Ary ny anaran’ ny rahalahiny dia Jobala; izy no rain’ ny mpitendry lokanga sy mpitsoka sodina rehetra.
22 And Zillah also bare Tubal-kain, who wrought cunningly euery craft of brasse and of yron: and the sister of Tubal-kain was Naamah.
Ary Zila kosa niteraka an’ i Tobala-kaina, mpanefy fiasana maranitra, na varahina na vy; ary ny anabavin’ i Tobala-kaina dia Nama.
23 Then Lamech saide vnto his wiues Adah and Zillah, Heare my voyce, ye wiues of Lamech: hearken vnto my speach: for I would slay a man in my wound, and a yong man in mine hurt.
Ary hoy Lameka tamin’ ny vadiny: Ry Ada sy Zila ô, mihainoa ny feoko; Ry vadin’ i Lameka, mitandrema ny teniko: Efa namono lehilahy aho noho ny feriko, Ary tovolahy noho ny faharatrako.
24 If Kain shalbe auenged seuen folde, truely Lamech, seuentie times seuen folde.
Raha valiana fito heny izay mamono an’ i Kaina, Dia fito amby fito-polo heny kosa izay mamono an’ i Lameka.
25 And Adam knewe his wife againe, and she bare a sonne, and she called his name Sheth: for God, saide she, hath appointed me another seede for Habel, because Kain slewe him.
Ary Adama nahalala ny vadiny indray, ka dia niteraka zazalahy ravehivavy; ary ny anarany nataony hoe Seta; fa Andriamanitra, hoy izy, efa nanome ahy zanaka anankiray koa ho solon’ i Abela, satria novonoin’ i Kaina izy.
26 And to ye same Sheth also there was borne a sonne, and he called his name Enosh. Then beganne men to call vpon the name of the Lord.
Ary Seta koa niteraka zazalahy; ary ny anarany nataony hoe Enosy.
