Genesis 4
1 Forsothe Adam knewe Eue his wijf, which conseyuede, and childide Cayn, and seide, Y haue gete a man bi God.
Čovjek pozna svoju ženu Evu, a ona zače i rodi Kajina, pa reče: “Muško sam čedo stekla pomoću Jahve!”
2 And efte sche childide his brother Abel. Forsothe Abel was a kepere of scheep, and Cayn was an erthe tilyere.
Poslije rodi Abela, brata Kajinova; Abel postane stočar, a Kajin zemljoradnik.
3 Sotheli it was don after many daies, that Cayn offride yiftis to the Lord of the fruytis of erthe;
I jednoga dana Kajin prinese Jahvi žrtvu od zemaljskih plodova.
4 and Abel offride of the first gendrid of his floc, and of the fatnesse of tho. And the Lord bihelde to Abel and to the yiftis of hym;
A prinese i Abel od prvine svoje stoke, sve po izbor pretilinu. Jahve milostivo pogleda na Abela i njegovu žrtvu,
5 sotheli he bihelde not to Cayn and to hise yiftis. And Cayn was wrooth greetli, and his cheer felde doun.
a na Kajina i žrtvu njegovu ni pogleda ne svrati. Stoga se Kajin veoma razljuti i lice mu se namrgodi.
6 And the Lord seide to hym, Whi art thou wrooth, and whi felde doun thi face?
I Jahve reče Kajinu: “Zašto si ljut? Zašto ti je lice namrgođeno?
7 Whether not if thou schalt do wel, thou schalt resseyue; but if thou doist yuele, thi synne schal be present anoon in the yatis? but the desir therof schal be vndur thee, and thou schalt be lord therof.
Jer ako pravo radiš, vedrinom odsijevaš. A ne radiš li pravo, grijeh ti je kao zvijer na pragu što na te vreba; još mu se možeš oduprijeti.”
8 And Cayn seide to Abel his brother, Go we out. And whanne thei weren in the feeld, Cayn roos ayens his brother Abel, and killide him.
Kajin pak reče svome bratu Abelu: “Hajdemo van!” I našavši se na polju, Kajin skoči na brata Abela te ga ubi.
9 And the Lord seide to Cayn, Where is Abel thi brother? Which answerde, Y woot not; whether Y am the kepere of my brothir?
Potom Jahve zapita Kajina: “Gdje ti je brat Abel?” “Ne znam”, odgovori. “Zar sam ja čuvar brata svoga?”
10 And God seide to Cayn, What hast thou do? the vois of the blood of thi brother crieth to me fro erthe.
Jahve nastavi: “Što si učinio? Slušaj! Krv brata tvoga iz zemlje k meni viče.
11 Now therfor thou schalt be cursid on erthe, that openyde his mouth, and resseyuede of thin hond the blood of thi brothir.
Stoga budi proklet na zemlji koja je rastvorila usta da proguta s ruke tvoje krv brata tvoga!
12 Whanne thou schalt worche the erthe, it schal not yyue his fruytis to thee; thou schalt be vnstable of dwellyng and fleynge aboute on erthe in alle the daies of thi lijf.
Obrađivat ćeš zemlju, ali ti više neće davati svoga roda. Vječni ćeš skitalica na zemlji biti!”
13 And Cayn seide to the Lord, My wickidnesse is more than that Y disserue foryyuenesse; lo!
A Kajin reče Jahvi: “Kazna je moja odviše teška da se snosi.
14 to dai thou castist me out fro the face of the erthe; and Y schal be hid fro thi face, and Y schal be vnstable of dwellyng and fleynge aboute in erthe; therfore ech man that schal fynde me schal slee me.
Evo me tjeraš danas s plodnoga tla; moram se skrivati od tvoga lica i biti vječni lutalac na zemlji - tko me god nađe, može me ubiti.”
15 And the Lord seide to hym, It schal not be don so, but ech man that schal slee Cayn shal be punyschid seuenfold. And the Lord settide a signe in Cayn, that ech man that schulde fynde hym schulde not slee hym.
A Jahve mu reče: “Ne! Nego tko ubije Kajina, sedmerostruka osveta na njemu će se izvršiti!” I Jahve stavi znak na Kajina, da ga tko, našavši ga, ne ubije.
16 And Cayn yede out fro the face of the Lord, and dwellide fleynge aboute in erthe, at the eest coost of Eden.
Kajin ode ispred lica Jahvina u zemlju Nod, istočno od Edena, i ondje se nastani.
17 Forsothe Cayn knewe his wiif, which conseyuede, and childide Enoth; and Cayn bildide a citee, and clepide the name therof of the name of hise sone Enoth.
Kajin pozna svoju ženu te ona zače i rodi Henoka. Podigao je grad i grad prozvao imenom svoga sina - Henok.
18 Forsothe Enoth gendride Irad, and Irad gendride Manyael, and Manyael gendride Matusael, and Matusael gendride Lameth;
Henoku se rodio Irad, a od Irada potekao Mehujael; od Mehujaela poteče Metušael, od Metušaela Lamek.
19 that took twei wyues, the name to o wijf was Ada, and the name to the tother was Sella.
Lamek uzme dvije žene. Jedna se zvala Ada, a druga Sila.
20 And Ada gendride Jabel, that was the fadir of dwellers in tentis and of shepherdis;
Ada rodi Jabala, koji je postao praocem onih što pod šatorima žive sa stokom.
21 and the name of his brother was Tubal, he was the fadir of syngeris in harpe and orgun.
Bratu mu bijaše ime Jubal. On je praotac svih koji sviraju na liru i sviralu.
22 And Sella gendride Tubalcayn, that was an hamerbetere, and smyyt on alle werkis of bras and of yrun; forsothe the sistir of Tubalcayn was Neoma.
Sila rodi Tubal-Kajina, praoca onih koji kuju bakar i željezo. Tubal-Kajinovoj sestri bijaše ime Naama.
23 And Lameth seide to his wyues Ada and Sella, Ye wyues of Lameth, here my vois, and herkne my word; for Y haue slayn a man bi my wounde, and a yong wexynge man bi my `violent betyng;
Lamek prozbori svojim ženama: “Ada i Sila, glas moj poslušajte! Žene Lamekove, čujte mi besjedu: Čovjeka sam ubio jer me ranio i dijete jer me udarilo.
24 veniaunce schal be youun seuenfold of Cayn, forsothe of Lameth seuentisithis seuensithis.
Ako će Kajin biti osvećen sedmerostruko, Lamek će sedamdeset i sedam puta!”
25 Also yit Adam knewe his wijf, and sche childide a sone, and clepide his name Seth, and seide, God hath put to me another seed for Abel, whom Cayn killide.
Adam pozna svoju ženu te ona rodi sina i nadjenu mu ime Šet. Reče ona: “Bog mi dade drugo dijete mjesto Abela, koga ubi Kajin.”
26 But also a sone was borun to Seth, which sone he clepide Enos; this Enos bigan to clepe inwardli the name of the Lord.
Šetu se rodi sin, komu on nadjenu ime Enoš. Tada se počelo zazivati ime Jahvino.
