Genesis 4
1 Now Adam had marital relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, "I have gotten a man from 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 Again she gave birth, to Cain's brother Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
Hahoi, a nawngha Abel bout a khe. Abel teh tu kakhoumkung lah ao teh, Kain teh law kasakkung lah ao.
3 As time passed, it happened that Cain brought an offering to God from the fruit of the ground.
Atueng akuep torei teh, Kain ni amae law thung e a pawhiknaw hah BAWIPA koe a sin.
4 And Abel also brought some of the firstborn of his flock and of its fat. And God looked favorably on Abel and his offering,
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 he did not look favorably on Cain and his offering. Cain was very angry, and the expression on his face 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 God said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why has the expression of your face fallen?
BAWIPA ni Kain koevah, Bangkongmaw na lungkhuek teh minhmai a mathoe.
7 If you do well, will it not be lifted up? If you do not do well, sin lies in wait at the door. It desires to control you, but you must rule 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 Cain said to Abel, his brother, "Let's go into the field." It happened when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel, his brother, and killed 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 Then God said to Cain, "Where is Abel, your brother?" He said, "I do not know. 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 God said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground.
Hahoi, BAWIPA ni bangmaw na sak na nawngha e thi ni talai dawk hoi kai koe a hram toe.
11 Now you are cursed because of the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your 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 From now on, when you till the ground, it won't yield its strength to you. You shall be a fugitive and a wanderer in 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 Cain said to God, "My punishment is greater than I can bear.
Kain ni BAWIPA koevah, reknae ka hmu e heh ka phu thai e hlak a lenhnawn.
14 Look, you have driven me out this day from the surface of the ground. I will be hidden from your face, and I will be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth. It will happen that whoever finds me will 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 God said to him, "Not so. Whoever kills Cain vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold." And God appointed a sign for Cain, lest any finding him should strike 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 So Cain went out from the presence of God and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
Hathnukkhu, Kain teh BAWIPA e hmaitung hoi a tâco teh, Eden kanîtholah, Nod ram dawk kho a sak.
17 Cain had marital relations with his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch. He built a city and called the name of the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
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 To Enoch was born Irad, and Irad became the father of Mehayiel, and Mehayiel became the father of Methushael, and Methushael became the father of Lamech.
Hahoi Enok ni Irad a khe. Irad ni Mehujael a khe. Mehujael ni Methushael a khe. Methushael ni Lamek a khe.
19 Lamech took two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
Hathnukkhu, Lamek ni a yu kahni touh a la teh, apasueke min teh Adah, apâhni e min teh Zillah doeh.
20 Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.
Adah ni Jabal a khe. Ahni teh rimnaw dawk kho ka sak e lah ao teh saringnaw kapacakung e na pa lah ao.
21 His brother's name was Jubal, who was the father of all who play the harp and flute.
A nawngha e min teh Jubal. Ahni teh ratoung hoi vovitnaw ka pâtu e na pa lah ao.
22 Zillah also gave birth to Tubal Cain, who heated metal and shaped instruments of bronze and iron. Tubal Cain's sister was Naamah.
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 Lamech said to his wives, "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice. You wives of Lamech, listen to my speech, for I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for bruising me.
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 If Cain will be avenged seven times, truly Lamech seventy-seven times."
Kain ni let sari touh e moipathungnae khang pawiteh, Lamek ni teh a let 70 touh hoi a khang han.
25 Adam had marital relations with his wife again, and she gave birth to a son, and named him Seth, saying, "For God has appointed me another child instead of Abel, for Cain killed him."
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 And a son was also born to Seth, and he named him Enosh. This one began to call on the name of God.
Seth ni hai capa a khe teh Enosh telah min a phung. Hahoi tami ni Jehovah min kaw han a kamtawng awh.
