Genesis 4
1 Adam (had sex/slept) with his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to a son whom she named Cain, [which sounds like the word that means ‘produce’], because, she said, “By Yahweh’s help I have produced a son.” Some time later she gave birth to another son, and she named him Abel.
Ang tawo miila kang Eva nga iyang asawa; ug kini nanamkon ug nag-anak kang Cain, ug miingon: Nakabaton ako ug usa ka lalake tungod sa panabang ni Jehova.
2 [After those boys grew up], Abel (tended/took care of) sheep and goats, and Cain became a farmer.
Ug unya usab nag-anak siya kang Abel nga iyang igsoon. Ug si Abel magbalantay sa mga carnero; apan si Cain mag-uuma sa yuta.
3 One day Cain harvested some of the crops he had grown and brought them to Yahweh as a gift for him,
Ug sa nagairog ang panahon, nahitabo nga si Cain nagdala gikan sa mga abut sa yuta usa ka halad kang Jehova.
4 and Abel took from his flock some of the first lambs that had been born [and killed them] and, as a gift, gave to Yahweh the fatty parts, [which were the best parts]. Yahweh was pleased with Abel and his offering,
Ug si Abel nagdala usab sa mga panganay sa iyang mga carnero ug sa mga matambok niini ug gitamod ni Jehova si Abel, ug ang iyang halad.
5 but he was not pleased with Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his face looked dejected.
Apan kang Cain ug sa iyang hatad wala siyay pagtamod. Ug nangisog si Cain sa hilabihan gayud, ug nangil-ad ang iyang panagway.
6 Yahweh said to Cain, “(You should not be angry!/Why are you angry?) [RHQ] (You should not scowl like that!/Why do you scowl like that?) [RHQ]
Ug si Jehova miingon kang Cain: Nganong nasuko ikaw, ug nganong nagngil-ad ang imong panagway?
7 If you had done what was right (OR, if you do what is right) [RHQ], I would accept your offering. But if you do not do what is right, [your desire to] sin [is ready to attack you like a wild animal that] [PRS] crouches outside the doorway, [ready to spring on its victim] [MET]. [Your desire to] sin wants to control you, but you must (control/not obey) it.”
Kong maayo ang imong gibuhat, kini dili ba pagadayegon? Ug kong dili ka magbuhat ug maayo, ang sala nagahay-ad sa ganghaan; ug kanimo mamao ang iyang tinguha; apan ikaw magabuot niini.
8 But one day, Cain said to his younger brother Abel, “Let’s go for a walk in the fields.” [So they went together]. And when they were in the countryside, suddenly Cain attacked Abel and killed him.
Ug namulong si Cain kang Abel nga iyang igsoon. Ug nahitabo, nga sa didto sila sa kapatagan, si Cain mitindog batok kang Abel nga iyang igsoon, ug iyang gipatay siya.
9 [Later, even though] Yahweh [knew what Cain had done], he said to Cain, “[Do you know] where Abel, your younger brother, is?” Cain replied, “No, I do not know. (My job is not to guard my younger brother!/Am I supposed to take care of my younger brother?)” [RHQ]
Ug miingon si Jehova kang Cain, Hain si Abel nga imong igsoon? Ug mitubag siya, Ambut: magbalantay ba ako sa akong igsoon?
10 Yahweh said, “You have done a terrible thing [RHQ]! So now [it is as though] your younger brother’s voice is crying to me from the ground, demanding that his death must be avenged.
Ug miingon siya, Unsa ang gibuhat mo? Ang tingog sa dugo sa imong igsoon nagatu-aw kanako gikan sa yuta.
11 You have killed your younger brother, and the ground has soaked up his blood. So now I will expel you from this land and curse your efforts to produce crops.
Ug karon tinunglo ikaw sa yuta, nga nagbuka sa iyang baba sa pagdawat sa dugo sa imong igsoon gikan sa imong kamot;
12 You will till the ground to plant crops, but the ground will produce very few [HYP] crops. And you will continually wander around the earth, and not have any place to live permanently.”
Sa diha nga magauma ikaw sa yuta, dili na kini magahatag kanimo sa iyang kusog; magalaaglaag ug magadumuloong ikaw sa yuta.
13 Cain replied, “You are punishing me more then I can endure.
Ug miingon si Cain kang Jehova, Ang akong silot labi nang daku kay sa akong mamaantus.
14 You are about to expel me from the ground [that I have been cultivating], and I will no longer be able to come (into your presence/and talk with you). Furthermore, I will be continually wandering around the earth with no place to live permanently, and anyone who sees me will kill me.”
Ania karon ginaabug mo ako niining adlawa gikan sa nawong sa yuta, ug ako magatago gikan sa imong atubangan; magalaaglaag ug magadumuloong ako sa yuta ug mahitabo nga bisan kinsa ang makakita kanako, mopatay kanako.
15 But Yahweh said to him, “No, that will not happen. I will put a mark on you to warn anyone who sees you that [I will punish him severely if] he kills you. I will punish that person seven times as severely as I am punishing you.” Then Yahweh put a mark on Cain’s forehead.
Ug si Jehova miingon kaniya: Sa tungod niana bisan kinsa nga magapatay kang Cain, ang panimalus ipahamtang kaniya sa pito ka pilo. Ug gibutangan ni Jehova ug patik si Cain aron siya dili pagapatyon ni bisan kinsa nga makakita kaniya.
16 So Cain left Yahweh and went to live in the land called Nod, [which means ‘wandering’], which was east of Eden.
Ug mipahawa si Cain sa atubangan ni Jehova, ug mipuyo sa yuta sa Nod sa silangan sa Eden.
17 Some time later, Cain (had sex/slept) with his wife, and she [became pregnant and] gave birth to a son, whom she named Enoch. Then Cain started to build a city, and he named the city ‘Enoch’, the same name that his son had.
Ug giila ni Cain ang iyang asawa, ug kini siya nanamkon ug nag-anak kang Enoch; ug nagtukod siya ug usa ka lungsod ug gihinganlan niya ang ngalan sa lungsod nga sunod sa ngalan sa iyang anak nga Enoch.
18 Enoch [grew up and married and] became the father of a son whom he named Irad. When Irad [grew up he] became the father of a son whom he named Mehujael. Mehujael [grew up and] became the father of a son whom he named Methuselah. Methuselah [grew up and] became the father of Lamech.
Ug kang Enoch natawo si Irad, ug si Irad nanganak kang Mehujael, ug si Mehujael nanganak kang Methusael, ug si Methusael nanganak kang Lamech.
19 When Lamech [grew up he] married two women. The name of one was Adah and the other was Zillah.
Ug mikuha si Lamech alang kaniya duruha ka asawa; ang ngalan sa usa mao si Ada, ug ang ngalan sa usa si Zilla.
20 Adah gave birth to [a son she named] Jabal.
Ug si Ada nanganak kang Jabal, nga mao ang amahan sa mga nagapuyo sa mga balongbalong, ug may mga hayup.
21 Later, Jabal was the first person who lived in tents because he traveled from place to place to take care of livestock. His younger brother’s name was Jubal. He was the first person who made/played a (lyre/stringed instrument) and a flute.
Ug ang ngalan sa iyang igsoon mao si Jubal, siya mao ang amahan sa tanan nga mga nagatogtog sa alpa ug sa flauta.
22 [Lamech’s other wife] Zillah gave birth to a son whom she named Tubal-Cain. Later Tubal-Cain became a (blacksmith/one who made tools from bronze and iron). Tubal-Cain had a younger sister whose name was Naamah.
Ug si Zilla usab nanganak kang Tubal-Cain nga magsasalsal sa tanang galamiton nga tumbaga ug puthaw; ug ang igsoon nga babaye ni Tubal-Cain mao si Naama.
23 One day Lamech said to his two wives, “Adah and Zillah, listen carefully to what I am saying. A young man struck me and wounded me, so I killed him.
Ug si Lamech miingon sa iyang mga asawa: Ada ug Zilla, patalinghugi ninyo ang akong tingog; kamo nga mga asawa ni Lamech, patalinghugi ninyo ang akong pakigpulong; kay gipatay ko ang usa ka tawo tungod sa pagsamad kanako ug usa ka batan-on tungod sa pagbun-og kanako:
24 Yahweh said long ago that he would avenge and punish anyone who killed Cain seven times as much as he punished Cain [for killing his younger brother]. So if anyone [tries to] kill me, I will punish him 77 times as much [as Yahweh punished Cain].”
Kong sa pito ka pilo pagapanimalusan si Cain, si Lamech sa pagkamatuod pagapanimalusan ug kapitoan ug pito ka pilo.
25 Adam continued to (have sex/sleep) with [EUP] his wife, and she [became pregnant and] gave birth to another son, whom she named Seth, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘given’], because, she said, “God has given me another child to take the place of Abel, since Cain killed him.”
Ug giila pag-usab ni Adam ang iyang asawa, ug kini nanganak ug usa ka anak nga lalake, ug gitawag niya ang iyang ngalan si Seth; kay ang Dios, miingon siya, naga tudlo kanako ug usa ka kaliwat nga ilis ni Abel, nga gipatay ni Cain.
26 When Seth grew up, he became the father of a son whom he named Enosh. About that time people began to worship Yahweh [again].
Ug kang Seth usab natawo ang usa ka anak nga lalake; ug gitawag niya ang iyang ngalan si Enos. Unya ang mga tawo nanagsugod sa pagtawag sa ngalan ni Jehova.
