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.
| ئادەم لەگەڵ حەوای ژنی جووت بوو، ئەویش سکی پڕ بوو، قایینی بوو. گوتی: «لەلایەن یەزدانەوە پیاوێک بووە بەرهەمم.» |
2 [After those boys grew up], Abel (tended/took care of) sheep and goats, and Cain became a farmer.
| پاشان هابیلی برای بوو. ئیتر هابیل بووە شوانی مێگەل و قایینیش جوتیار بوو. |
3 One day Cain harvested some of the crops he had grown and brought them to Yahweh as a gift for him,
| دوای ماوەیەک قایین هەندێک بەروبوومی زەوی پێشکەش بە یەزدان کرد. |
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,
| هەروەها هابیل لە چەوری باشترین نۆبەرەی مێگەلەکەی پێشکەش کرد. جا هابیل و قوربانییەکەی جێی ڕەزامەندی یەزدان بوون، |
5 but he was not pleased with Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his face looked dejected.
| بەڵام قایین و پێشکەشکراوەکەی جێی ڕەزامەندی یەزدان نەبوون، بۆیە قایین زۆر تووڕە بوو و ڕووی خۆی گرژ کرد. |
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]
| یەزدان بە قایینی فەرموو: «بۆ تووڕە بوویت و ڕووی خۆتت گرژ کردووە؟ |
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.”
| ئایا ئەگەر ئەوەی چاکە ئەنجامی بدەیت، قبوڵ ناکرێیت؟ خۆ ئەگەر ئەوەی چاکە ئەنجامی نەدەیت ئەوا گوناه لە بەردەرگا خۆی مات کردووە و ئارەزووت دەکات، بەڵام تۆ دەبێت بەسەریدا زاڵ ببیت.» |
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.
| جا قایین بە هابیلی برای گوت: «با بچینە کێڵگەکە.» کاتێک هەردووکیان لە کێڵگە بوون، قایین پەلاماری هابیلی برای دا و کوشتی. |
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]
| یەزدان بە قایینی فەرموو: «کوا هابیلی برات؟» ئەویش گوتی: «نازانم، ئایا من پاسەوانی براکەمم؟» |
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.
| جا یەزدان فەرمووی: «چیت کردووە؟ گوێ بگرە! دەنگی خوێنی براکەت لە زەوییەوە هاوارم بۆ دەکات. |
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.
| ئێستاش تۆ نەفرەتلێکراویت لەو زەوییەی کە دەمی بۆ وەرگرتنی خوێنی براکەت کردەوە لە دەستی تۆ. |
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.”
| کاتێک ئیش لە زەوییەکەدا دەکەیت، چیتر بەری خۆیت ناداتێ. لەسەر زەوی دەربەدەر و بێ ئۆقرە دەبیت.» |
13 Cain replied, “You are punishing me more then I can endure.
| قایین بە یەزدانی گوت: «سزاکەم لەوە گەورەترە کە بتوانم بەرگەی بگرم. |
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.”
| ئەمڕۆ لەسەر زەوی دەرتکردم، لەبەر ئامادەبوونی تۆ ون دەبم و دەربەدەر و بێ ئۆقرە دەبم لەسەر زەوی. هەرکەسێکیش تووشم بێت دەمکوژێت.» |
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.
| بەڵام یەزدان پێی فەرموو: «ناکرێت وابێت، هەرکەسێک قایین بکوژێت ئەوا حەوت ئەوەندە تۆڵەی لێ دەستێنرێتەوە.» ئینجا یەزدان نیشانەیەکی بە قایینەوە کرد تاکو هەرکەسێک تووشی بێت نەیکوژێت. |
16 So Cain left Yahweh and went to live in the land called Nod, [which means ‘wandering’], which was east of Eden.
| ئیتر قایین لەبەردەمی یەزدان چووە دەرەوە و لە خاکی نۆد لە ڕۆژهەڵاتی عەدەن نیشتەجێ بوو. |
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.
| قایین لەگەڵ ژنەکەی جووت بوو، ئەویش سکی پڕ بوو و حەنۆخی بوو. ئەو کاتە شارێکی بنیاد دەنا، شارەکەی بە ناوی کوڕەکەیەوە ناونا حەنۆخ. |
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.
| حەنۆخ عیرادی بوو، عیرادیش مەحویائێلی بوو، مەحویائێلیش مەتوشائێلی بوو، مەتوشائێلیش لامەخی بوو. |
19 When Lamech [grew up he] married two women. The name of one was Adah and the other was Zillah.
| لامەخ دوو ژنی هێنا، یەکێکیان ناوی عادا بوو، ئەوی دیکەشیان ناوی چیلا بوو. |
20 Adah gave birth to [a son she named] Jabal.
| لە عاداوە یابال بوو کە باوکی چادرنشینان و خاوەن مەڕوماڵاتەکان بوون. |
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.
| براکەشی ناوی یوبال بوو کە باوکی هەموو ئەوانە بوو کە قیسارەیان دەژەند و شمشاڵیان لێدەدا. |
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.
| چیلاش کوڕێکی بوو بە ناوی توبەل قەین، کە وەستای هەموو ئەو جۆرە ئامێرانە بوو کە لە بڕۆنز و ئاسن دروست دەکران. نەعماش خوشکی توبەل قەین بوو. |
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.
| لامەخ بە هەردوو ژنەکەی گوت: «عادا و چیلا، گوێتان لێم بێت، ئەی هەردوو ژنەکەی لامەخ، گوێ بۆ قسەکانم شل بکەن. پیاوێکم کوشتووە لەسەر ئەوەی برینداری کردم، لاوێکیش لەسەر ئەوەی زامداری کردم. |
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].”
| ئەو بۆ قایین حەوت جار تۆڵە دەستێنێتەوە، بەڵام بۆ لامەخ، حەفتا و حەوت جار.» |
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.”
| جارێکی دیکە ئادەم لەگەڵ ژنەکەی جووت بوو، کوڕێکی بوو و ناوی لێنا شیت. ئینجا گوتی: «لە جیاتی هابیل کە قایین کوشتی، خودا کوڕێکی دیکەی پێبەخشیم.» |
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].
| هەروەها شیت کوڕێکی بوو ناوی لێنا ئەنۆش. لەو کاتەدا بوو کە خەڵکی دەستیان کرد بە نزاکردن بە ناوی یەزدانەوە. |
