< Genesis 4 >

1 And the man knew Eve his wife: and she conceived, and bore Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord.
Lao esa, Adam sungguꞌ no sao na Hawa, de ana nairu. Ana bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa, ma nae, “Ana touꞌ esa dea nema ena, huu LAMATUALAIN tulu-fali au.” De babꞌae e, Kaen (sosoa na ‘dea nema’).
2 And she bore again, his brother, Abel; and Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
Basa ma, Hawa bꞌonggi seluꞌ ana touꞌ esa, de babꞌae e Habel. Ruꞌa se raꞌamoko ma, Habel dadꞌi manatadꞌa banda, ma Kaen tao osi.
3 And it came to pass in process of time, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground and offering unto the Lord.
Lao esa, Kaen nendi osi na mbule-bꞌoa na ruma, fee LAMATUALAIN.
4 And Abel—he also brought of the firstlings of his flock, and of the fattest thereof; and the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering;
Habel o nendi bibꞌi lombo nara, ana ulu nara. Ana mbau-hala se, ma nendi sisi maloleꞌ neu Lamatualain. Ma LAMATUALAIN rala Na namahoꞌo, huu Habel, ma tutunu-hohotu na.
5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had no respect; and it was very displeasing to Cain, and his countenance fell.
Te Ana nda hii Kaen tutunu-hohotu na sa. Naa de, Kaen namanasa, de mata na maꞌalasi.
6 And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
Boe ma LAMATUALAIN olaꞌ no Kaen nae, “Heh, Kaen! Taꞌo bee de mumunasa, losa mata ma maꞌalasi taꞌo naa?
7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door; and unto thee is its desire, but thou canst rule over it.
Mete ma ho tao maloleꞌ, naa, Au simbo nggo no maloleꞌ boe. Te besa-bꞌesa! Mete ma ho tao deꞌulakaꞌ, dei fo deꞌulakaꞌ a naa baliꞌ nggo, onaꞌ meo obꞌo lafo. Dadꞌi mete ma hii mae tao deꞌulakaꞌ, malole lenaꞌ nggari hendi leo!”
8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
Lao esa, Kaen kokoe Habel nae, “Odꞌiꞌ! Uma fo teu lao-laoꞌ sia osi.” Ara losa naa, aiboiꞌ ma, Kaen momoko nisa odꞌi na.
9 And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel they brother? and he said, I know not; am I my brother's keeper?
Basa ma LAMATUALAIN natane Kaen nae, “Heh, Kaen! Odꞌi ma saa bee?” Nataa nae, “Au nda bubꞌuluꞌ saꞌ! Mae au mana toꞌu ei na, do?”
10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.
Te Lamatualain olaꞌ nae, “Taꞌo bee de ho tao deꞌulaka taꞌo naa? Afiꞌ mae ho bisa funi odꞌi ma raa na sia rae a, te Au ita basa ena!
11 And now be thou cursed from the ground, which hath opened its mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand:
Ia naa huku-dokiꞌ sae nala nggo. Leleꞌ misa odꞌi ma, rae a musi nala raa na. De ia naa, rae a nda fee masodꞌaꞌ neu nggo sa ena.
12 When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield its strength unto thee; fugitive and vagabond shalt thou be on the earth.
Mete ma ho tao osi, rae a nda fee mbule-bꞌoaꞌ saa-saa saꞌ boe. Mia oras ia, ho koo-kale muu-uma onaꞌ atahori mana toꞌa-taaꞌ sangga masodꞌaꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia.”
13 And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
Te Kaen labꞌan LAMATUALAIN nae, “Awii! Lamatualain, e! Taꞌo bee de huku-doki au bera na seli, losa au nda lemba beꞌi sa!
14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the ground; and from thy face shall I be hid; and if I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, it will come to pass, that every one that findeth me will slay me.
Huu Lamatualain oi hendi au sia mamanaꞌ ia, dei fo au uꞌudꞌoodꞌooꞌ mia Lamatualain. Au koo-kale sudꞌiꞌ a bee uu. Ma sudꞌiꞌ a se randaa ro au, naa, tati risa au.”
15 And the Lord said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him seven-fold. And the Lord set a sign unto Cain, that any one finding him should not kill him.
Te LAMATUALAIN nataa nae, “Nda taꞌo naa sa! Seka tati nisa nggo, naa, Au huku-doki e bera na lenaꞌ lao hitu!” Dei de, LAMATUALAIN tao tatandaꞌ neu Kaen, fo atahori rahine, rae nda bole tao risa e sa.
16 And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.
Basa ma, Kaen lao hela mamanaꞌ naa, fo neu naꞌadꞌodꞌoꞌ no LAMATUALAIN. Ana lao losa mamanaꞌ esa sia osi Eden seriꞌ rulu, nara na Nod, sosoa na nae, ‘koo-kale’. Boe ma, ana leo sia naa.
17 And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and bore Enoch; and he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch.
Basa ma, Kaen sao, de sao na nairu. Ana bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa, de babꞌae e, Henok. Kaen o nafefela kamboꞌ esa, de babꞌae kamboꞌ a Henok, tungga ana na nara na.
18 And unto Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begat Mechujael: and Mechujael begat Methushael; and Methushael begat Lemech.
Henok ana na, Irad. Ma Irad ana na, Mehuyael. Mehuyael ana na, Metusael. Ma Metusael ana na, Lamek.
19 And Lemech took unto himself two wives, the name of one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
Lamek sao na rua. Esa naran Ada, ma esa naran Sila.
20 And Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and have cattle.
Ada ana ulu na, naran Yabal. Yabal tititi-nonosi nara, dadꞌi manatadꞌa. Ara rasodꞌa lali-laliꞌ, ma leo sia lalaat.
21 And his brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all such as play on the harp and guitar.
Yabal odꞌi na, naran Yubal. Yubal tititi-nonosi nara, mana maꞌaminaꞌ lii-liiꞌ mana pake sanar onaꞌ a sasando, ma fuu onaꞌ suling.
22 And Zillah, she also bore Tubal-cain, an artificer in every article of copper and iron; and the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.
Ma Lamek sao na Sila bꞌonggi Tubal Kaen. Tubal Kaen tititi-nonosi nara mana tutu besi. Ara tao sudꞌiꞌ a saa mataꞌ-mataꞌ mia besi ma riti. Tubal Kaen feto na, Naꞌama.
23 And Lemech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; ye wives of Lemech, hearken unto my speech; for I have slain a man to my own wounding, and a young-man to my hurt.
Lao esa, Lamek nananaru ao na mia sao nara ruꞌa se mata nara nae, “Rena, e! Faꞌ ra monetenaꞌ esa tutu au, te au tao isa e.
24 If Cain shall be avenged seven-fold, truly Lemech seventy and seven-fold.
Atahori mana tao nisa Kaen, hambu huku-dokiꞌ lao hitu. Te mete ma hambu mana nae nambedꞌaꞌ ralaꞌ no au, ana hambu huku-dokiꞌ lao hitu nulu hitu.”
25 And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son, and called his name Sheth [[Seth]]; for God [said she] hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
Adam sao na Hawa bonggi ana touꞌ esa fai. De ara babꞌae e, Set, huu Hawa nae, “Lamatualain fee anaꞌ ia nggati Habel, fo Kaen tao nisaꞌ a.”
26 And to Sheth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enosh: then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.
Dꞌoo-dꞌoo ma, Set hambu ana touꞌ esa, naran Enos. Leleꞌ naa, atahori ra feꞌe rahine LAMATUALAIN ena, ma beꞌutee neu E.
