1 Nake Adamu agĩkoma na mũtumia wake Hawa, nake akĩgĩa nda, agĩciara Kaini. Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndĩkũgĩa na mwana wa kahĩĩ nĩ ũndũ wa gũteithio nĩ Jehova.”
And Adam lay wyth Heua ys wyfe which conceaved and bare Cain and sayd: I haue goten a ma of the LORde.
2 Thuutha ũcio agĩciara Habili, mũrũ wa nyina. Habili aarĩ mũrĩithi wa mbũri nake Kaini aarĩ mũrĩmi.
And she proceded forth and bare hys brother Abell: And Abell became a sheperde And Cain became a ploweman.
3 Maikarĩte kwa ihinda-rĩ, Kaini akĩrehe maciaro mamwe ma mũgũnda marĩ igongona kũrĩ Jehova.
And it fortuned in processe of tyme that Cain brought of the frute of the erth: an offerynge vnto the LORde.
4 No Habili akĩrehe marigithathi mamwe marĩa manoru ma rũũru rwake. Nake Jehova agĩkenio nĩ Habili na igongona rĩake,
And Abell he brought also of the fyrstlynges of hys shepe and of the fatt of them. And the LORde loked vnto Abell and to his offeynge:
5 no ndaakenirio nĩ Kaini na igongona rĩake. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Kaini akĩrakara mũno, na agĩtukia gĩthiithi.
but vnto Cain and vnto his offrynge looked he not. And Cain was wroth exceadingly and loured.
6 Nake Jehova Ngai akĩũria Kaini atĩrĩ, “Ũrakarĩte nĩkĩ? Na nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũtukie gĩthiithi?
And the LORde sayd vnto Cain: why art thou angry and why loureste thou? Wotest thou not yf thou dost well thou shalt receave it?
7 Ũngĩka ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire-rĩ, no wage gwĩtĩkĩrĩka? No ũngĩaga gwĩka ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire-rĩ, mehia makuoheirie mũrango-inĩ waku makĩenda gũgwatha; no wee no nginya ũmatoorie.”
But and yf thou dost evell by and by thy synne lyeth open in the dore. Not withstondyng let it be subdued vnto the ad see thou rule it.
8 Thuutha ũcio Kaini akĩĩra mũrũ wa nyina Habili atĩrĩ, “Nĩtumagare tũthiĩ mũgũnda.” Na rĩrĩa maarĩ kũu mũgũnda, Kaini agĩtharĩkĩra mũrũ wa nyina Habili, akĩmũũraga.
And Cain talked wyth Abell his brother. And as soone as they were in the feldes Cain fell vppon Abell his brother and slewe hym
9 Nake Jehova akĩũria Kaini atĩrĩ, “Arĩ ha mũrũ-wa-nyũkwa Habili?” Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndiũĩ, kaĩ arĩ niĩ mũmenyereri wa mũrũ-wa-maitũ?”
And ye LORde sayd vnto Cain: where is Abell thy brother? And he sayd: I can not tell am I my brothers keper?
10 Jehova akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ atĩa wĩkĩte? Ta thikĩrĩria! Thakame ya mũrũ-wa-nyũkwa nĩĩrangaĩra ĩrĩ tĩĩri-inĩ.
And he sayd: What hast thou done? the voyce of thy brothers bloud cryeth vnto me out of the erth.
11 Na rĩrĩ, nĩũgwatĩtwo nĩ kĩrumi na ũkaingatwo mũgũnda ũrĩa waathamirie kanua kaguo kwamũkĩra thakame ya mũrũ-wa-nyũkwa kuuma guoko-inĩ gwaku.
And now cursed be thou as pertaynyng to the erth which opened hyr mouth to receaue thy brothers bloud of thyne hande.
12 Rĩrĩa ũrĩũrĩmaga-rĩ, ndũgacooka gũgũciarĩra maciaro maguo. Ũgũtuĩka mũndũ ũtakindagĩria, wa kũũrũũraga gũkũ thĩ.”
For when thou tyllest the grounde she shall heceforth not geve hyr power vnto the. A vagabunde and a rennagate shalt thou be vpon the erth.
13 Nake Kaini akĩĩra Jehova atĩrĩ, “Iherithia rĩakwa nĩ inene gũkĩra ũrĩa ingĩhota gwĩtiiria.
And Cain sayd vnto the LORde: my synne is greater then that it may be forgeven.
14 Ũmũthĩ ũyũ nĩũranyingata kuuma mũgũnda ũyũ na ndũũre hithĩtwo ũthiũ waku; ngũtuĩka mũndũ ũtakindagĩria, wa kũũrũũraga gũkũ thĩ, na ũrĩa wothe ũkaanyona nĩakanjũraga.”
Beholde thou castest me out thys day from of the face of the erth and fro thy syghte must I hyde my selfe ad I must be wandrynge and a vagabunde vpon the erth: Morover whosoever fyndeth me wyll kyll me,
15 No Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Aca, ti ũguo; mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkooraga Kaini, nĩakarĩhio maita mũgwanja.” Jehova agĩcooka agĩĩkĩra Kaini rũũri nĩgeetha ũrĩa wothe ũngĩmuona ndakamũũrage!
And the LORde sayd vnto hi Not so but whosoever sleyth Cain shalbe punyshed. vij. folde. And ye LORde put a marke vpo Cain that no ma yt founde hym shulde kyll hym.
16 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Kaini akĩehera akiuma harĩ Jehova, na agĩtũũra bũrũri-inĩ wa Nodu, mwena wa irathĩro rĩa Edeni.
And Cain went out fro the face of the LORde and dwelt in the lande Nod on the east syde of Eden.
17 Kaini agĩkoma na mũtumia wake, na akĩgĩa nda, agĩciara Enoku. Hĩndĩ ĩyo Kaini nĩakaga itũũra inene, na aarĩkia kũrĩaka, akĩrĩĩta Enoku o ta ũrĩa mũriũ eetagwo.
And Cain laye wyth hys wyfe which conceaved and bare Henoch. And he was buyldinge a cyte and called the name of it after the name of hys sonne Henoch.
18 Nake Enoku agĩciarĩrwo Iradu, nake Iradu aarĩ ithe wa Mehujaeli, nake Mehujaeli aarĩ ithe wa Methushaeli, nake Methushaeli aarĩ ithe wa Lameku.
And Henoch begat Irad. And Irad begat Mahuiael. And Mahuiael begat Mathusael. And Mathusael begat Lamech.
19 Lameku ũcio akĩhikia andũ-a-nja eerĩ, ũmwe eetagwo Ada na ũrĩa ũngĩ eetagwo Zila.
And Lamech toke hym two wyves: the one was called Ada and the other Zilla.
20 Ada agĩciara Jabali; na nĩwe ithe wa andũ arĩa matũũraga hema-inĩ na marĩithagia mahiũ.
And Ada bare Iabal of whome came they that dwell in tentes ad possesse catell.
21 Mũrũ-wa nyina eetagwo Jubali; nake nĩwe ithe wa andũ arĩa othe mahũũraga inanda cia mũgeeto na makahuha mĩtũrirũ.
And hys brothers name was Iubal: of hym came all that excercyse them selves on the harpe and on the organs
22 Zila o nake aarĩ na mũriũ, nake eetagwo Tubali-Kaini, na nĩwe waturaga indo cia mĩthemba yothe cia gĩcango na cia kĩgera. Tubali-Kaini aarĩ na mwarĩ wa nyina wetagwo Naama.
And Zilla she also bare Tubalcain a worker in metall and a father of all that grave in brasse and yeron. And Tubalcains syster was called Naema.
23 Lameku akĩĩra atumia ake atĩrĩ, “Ada na Zila, taa thikĩrĩriai; inyuĩ atumia a Lameku, ta iguai ciugo ciakwa. Nĩnjũragĩte mũndũ nĩ ũndũ wa kũndiihia, ngooraga mũndũ mwĩthĩ nĩ ũndũ wa kũnguraria.
Then sayd Lamech vnto hys wyves Ada ad Zilla: heare my voyce ye wyves of Lamech and herken vnto my wordes for I haue slayne a man and wounded my selfe and haue slayn a yongman and gotte my selfe strypes:
24 Angĩkorwo Kaini arĩhagĩrio maita mũgwanja-rĩ, Lameku nake akarĩhĩrio maita mĩrongo mũgwanja na mũgwanja.”
For Cain shall be avenged sevenfolde: but Lamech seventie tymes sevenfolde.
25 Nake Adamu agĩkoma na mũtumia wake rĩngĩ, nake agĩciara kaana ga kahĩĩ, na agĩgatua Sethi, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ngai nĩaheete mwana ũngĩ handũ ha Habili, ũrĩa Kaini ooragire.”
Adam also laye with hys wyfe yet agayne and she bare a sonne ad called hys name Seth For god (sayd she) hath geven me a nother sonne For Abell whom Cain slewe.
26 Sethi o nake aarĩ na mũriũ wake, nake akĩmũtua rĩĩtwa Enoshu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩrĩo andũ mambĩrĩirie gũkaĩra rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova.
And Seth begat a sonne and called hys name Enos. And in that tyme began men to call on the name of the LORde.
