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 je spoznal svojo ženo Evo in ta je spočela ter rodila Kajna in rekla: »Dobila sem človeka od Gospoda.«
2 Again she gave birth, to Cain's brother Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
In ponovno je rodila njegovega brata Abela. In Abel je bil čuvaj ovc, toda Kajn je bil orač tal.
3 As time passed, it happened that Cain brought an offering to God from the fruit of the ground.
Tekom časa se je pripetilo, da je Kajn od sadu tal prinesel daritev Gospodu.
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,
In tudi Abel je prinesel prvence od svojega tropa in od njihove tolšče. In Gospod je imel spoštovanje do Abela in njegove daritve,
5 but he did not look favorably on Cain and his offering. Cain was very angry, and the expression on his face fell.
toda do Kajna in njegove daritve [pa] ni imel spoštovanja. In Kajn je bil zelo ogorčen in njegovo obličje je upadlo.
6 God said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why has the expression of your face fallen?
Gospod je rekel Kajnu: »Zakaj si ogorčen? In zakaj je tvoje obličje upadlo?
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."
Če delaš dobro ali ne boš sprejet? Če pa ne delaš dobro, greh leži pri vratih. Njegovo poželenje naj bo k tebi, ti pa boš vladal nad njim.«
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.
Kajn je govoril s svojim bratom Abelom, in ko sta bila na polju, se je pripetilo, da se je Kajn dvignil zoper svojega brata Abela in ga ubil.
9 Then God said to Cain, "Where is Abel, your brother?" He said, "I do not know. Am I my brother's keeper?"
Gospod je rekel Kajnu: »Kje je tvoj brat, Abel?« On pa je rekel: »Ne vem. Sem mar jaz čuvaj svojega brata?«
10 And God said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground.
Rekel je: »Kaj si storil? Glas krvi tvojega brata iz tal vpije k meni.
11 Now you are cursed because of the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.
Sedaj si preklet pred zemljo, ki je odprla svoja usta, da iz tvoje roke sprejme kri tvojega brata.
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."
Ko boš oral tla, ti odslej ne bodo obrodila svoje moči; na zemlji boš ubežnik in potepuh.«
13 Cain said to God, "My punishment is greater than I can bear.
Kajn je Gospodu rekel: »Moja kazen je večja, kakor jo lahko prenesem.
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."
Glej, danes si me napodil izpred obličja zemlje, in skrit bom pred tvojim obličjem, in na zemlji bom ubežnik ter potepuh; in zgodilo se bo, da me bo ubil vsak, kdor me najde.«
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.
Gospod mu je rekel: »Zatorej kdorkoli ubije Kajna, bo nanj nadeto sedemkratno maščevanje.« In Gospod je na Kajna namestil znamenje, da kdorkoli ga najde, ga ne bi ubil.
16 So Cain went out from the presence of God and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
Kajn je odšel izpred Gospodove prisotnosti in prebival v deželi Nod, vzhodno od Edena.
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.
Kajn je spoznal svojo ženo in ta je spočela ter rodila Henoha. Ta je zgradil mesto in ime mesta imenoval Henoh, po imenu svojega sina.
18 To Enoch was born Irad, and Irad became the father of Mehaiel, and Mehaiel became the father of Methushael, and Methushael became the father of Lamech.
Henohu se je rodil Irád, in Irád je zaplodil Mehujaéla, in Mehujaél je zaplodil Metušaéla, in Metušaél je zaplodil Lameha.
19 Lamech took two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
Lameh si je vzel dve ženi: ime prve je bilo Ada, ime druge pa Cila.
20 Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.
Ada je rodila Jabála; ta je bil oče teh, ki prebivajo v šotorih in teh, ki imajo živino.
21 His brother's name was Jubal, who was the father of all who play the harp and flute.
Ime njegovega brata je bilo Jubál; bil je oče vseh teh, ki prijemajo harfo in piščal.
22 Zillah also gave birth to Tubal Cain, who heated metal and shaped instruments of bronze and iron. Tubal Cain's sister was Naamah.
Cila pa je rodila tudi Tubál Kajina, učitelja vsakega rokodelca z bronom in železom, in Tubál Kajinova sestra je bila Naáma.
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.
Lameh je rekel svojima ženama, Adi in Cili: »Poslušajta moj glas, vidve, Lamehovi ženi, prisluhnita mojemu govoru, kajti umoril sem človeka, ki mi prizadeva rane in mladeniča, za mojo rano.
24 If Cain will be avenged seven times, truly Lamech seventy-seven times."
Če bo Kajn sedemkrat maščevan, resnično, Lameh [pa] sedeminsedemdesetkrat.«
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."
Adam je spet spoznal svojo ženo in rodila je sina in njegovo ime je imenovala Set. »Kajti Bog, « je rekla, »mi je določil drugega potomca namesto Abela, ki ga je ubil Kajn.«
26 And a son was also born to Seth, and he named him Enosh. This one began to call on the name of God.
In Setu, tudi njemu se je rodil sin, in njegovo ime je imenoval Enóš. Potem so ljudje začeli klicati Gospodovo ime.
