Genesis 4
1 And the man knew his wife Eve, and she conceives and bears Cain, and says, “I have acquired a man by YHWH”;
Te phoeiah Adam loh a yuu Eve te a ming. A yuu khaw vawn tih Kain te a cun hatah, “BOEIPA taengkah hlang ka dang coeng,” a ti.
2 and she adds to bear his brother, even Abel. And Abel is feeding a flock, and Cain has been servant of the ground.
Te phoeiah Kain kah a mana Abel te pahoi a cun. Te vaengah Abel tah boiva aka dawn la om tih Kain tah lo tawn la om.
3 And it comes to pass at the end of days that Cain brings from the fruit of the ground a present to YHWH;
A bawtnah khohnin ah BOEIPA taengah khosaa la diklai kah a thaih te Kain loh a khuen.
4 and Abel, he has brought, he also, from the female firstlings of his flock, and from their fat ones; and YHWH looks to Abel and to his present,
Tedae Abel long tah amah kah boiva cacuek neh aka tha te a Khuen van. Te dongah BOEIPA loh Abel so neh anih kah khosaa te a uem pah.
5 and to Cain and to his present He has not looked; and it is very displeasing to Cain, and his countenance is fallen.
Tedae Kain neh anih kah khosaa te a uem pah pawt dongah Kain te mat sai tih a maelhmai khaw tal.
6 And YHWH says to Cain, “Why do you have displeasure? And why has your countenance fallen?
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Kain taengah “Nang te balae tih na sai? Te phoeiah balae tih na maelhmai a tal?
7 Is there not, if you do well, acceptance? And if you do not do well, sin [[or a sin-offering]] is lying at the opening, and its [[or His]] desire [is] for you, and you rule over it [[or by Him]].”
Doe hamla a then mai moenih a? Na then pawt dongah ni thohka ah tholhnah a kol mai. Tedae a lungdueknah te nang ham om mai cakhaw namah loh a soah taemrhai saw,” a ti nah.
8 And Cain says to his brother Abel, [[“Let us go into the field”; ]] and it comes to pass in their being in the field, that Cain rises up against his brother Abel, and slays him.
Tedae Kain loh a mana Abel te kohong la a khue tih a om rhoi vaengah Kain loh a mana Abel te a hnueih tih a ngawn.
9 And YHWH says to Cain, “Where [is] your brother Abel?” And he says, “I have not known; am I my brother’s keeper?”
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Kain taengah, “Na mana Abel ta?” a ti nah hatah Kain loh, “Ka ming pawh. Kai loh ka mana ka dawn a?” a ti nah.
10 And He says, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood is crying to Me from the ground;
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh, “Balae na saii? na mana thii ol loh diklai lamkah kai taengla ha pang coeng.
11 and now, cursed [are] you from the ground, which has opened her mouth to receive the blood of your brother from your hand;
Te dongah nang kut lamkah na manuca kah thii aka duen ham a ka aka ang diklai lamloh nang tah thae m'phoei thil coeng.
12 when you till the ground, it will not add to give its strength to you—a wanderer, even a trembling one, you are in the earth.”
Khohmuen te na tawn vaengah nang taengah a thadueng paek ham koei mahpawh. Diklai ah aka hinghuen tih aka rhaehba la na om ni,” a ti nah.
13 And Cain says to YHWH, “My punishment is too great than to bear;
Tedae Kain loh BOEIPA taengah, “Kai kathaesainah te phueih ham lakah len aih.
14 behold, You have driven me today from off the face of the ground, and from Your face I am hid; and I have been a wanderer, even a trembling one, in the earth, and it has been—everyone finding me will slay me.”
Tihnin ah kai he diklai hman neh namah hmuh lamkah nan haek dongah ka thuh uh ni. Tedae aka poeng aka doe ka om phoeiah diklai ah ka pamdah cakhaw kai aka hmu boeih loh kai n'ngawn pawn ni he,” a ti nah.
15 And YHWH says to him, “Therefore, of any slayer of Cain it is required sevenfold”; and YHWH sets to Cain a token that none finding him will slay him.
Tedae BOEIPA loh anih taengah, “Kain aka ngawn boeih te tah voei rhih due phulo saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih aka hmu boeih loh anih te ngawn pawt ham Kain soah BOEIPA loh miknoek a paek.
16 And Cain goes out from before YHWH, and dwells in the land, moving about east of Eden;
Te dongah Kain tah BOEIPA mikhmuh lamkah cet tih Eden kah khothoeng ben Nodi khohmuen ah kho a sak.
17 and Cain knows his wife, and she conceives, and bears Enoch; and he is building a city, and he calls the name of the city, according to the name of his son—Enoch.
Te vaengah Kain loh a yuu te a ming. Te dongah pumrhih tih Enok te a cun. Te vaengkah khopuei a thoong tih khopuei ming te a capa ming Enok kho la a khue.
18 And born to Enoch is Irad; and Irad has begotten Mehujael; and Mehujael has begotten Methusael; and Methusael has begotten Lamech.
Te phoeiah Enok loh Irad a sak tih Irad loh Mahujael a sak. Mahujael loh Methusael te a sak. Methusael loh Lamek te a sak.
19 And Lamech takes to himself two wives, the name of the first Adah, and the name of the second Zillah.
Te phoeiah Lamek loh amah ham yuu panit a loh tih pakhat kah a ming tah Adah tih a pabae kah a ming tah Zillah ni.
20 And Adah bears Jabal, he has been father of those inhabiting tents and [having] purchased livestock;
Te vaengah Adah loh Jabal te a cun tih anih te dap ah kho aka sa tih boiva aka toi rhoek kah pa la om.
21 and the name of his brother [is] Jubal, he has been father of everyone handling harp and pipe.
Tedae a mana, a ming tah Jubal tih anih te rhotoeng neh phavi aka tum boeih kah a napa la om.
22 And Zillah, she also bears Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron; and a sister of Tubal-Cain [is] Naamah.
Zillah long khaw rhohum neh thi tubael boeih aka hnaa Tubalkain neh Tubalkain kah a ngannu Naamah te khaw a cun.
23 And Lamech says to his wives: “Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; Wives of Lamech, give ear [to] my saying: For I have slain a man for my wound, Even a young man for my hurt;
Te vaengah Lamek loh a yuu rhoi Adah neh Zillah taengah, “Lamek yuu rhoi, kai ol he ya rhoi lamtah kai kah olthui he hnakaeng rhoi lah. Kai tloh kong neh ka boengha kongah camoe, hlang pakhat ka ngawn coeng.
24 For sevenfold is required for Cain, And for Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”
Kain ham voei rhih la phu a loh atah Lamek ham khaw voei sawmrhih neh parhih la phuloh pah saeh,” a ti nah.
25 And Adam again knows his wife, and she bears a son, and calls his name Seth, “for God has appointed for me another seed instead of Abel”: for Cain had slain him.
Te phoeiah Adam loh a yuu te koep a ming tih, capa a cun hatah Abel te Kain loh a ngawn coeng dae a yueng la Pathen loh tiingan a tloe kai ham a khueh coeng' a ti dongah anih ming te Seth la a khue.
26 And to Seth, to him also a son has been born, and he calls his name Enos; then a beginning was made of preaching in the Name of YHWH.
Te phoeiah Seth long khaw capa a sak tih a ming te Enosh a sui. Te vaengah Yahweh ming te phoei ham a tong.
