< Genesis 4 >

1 Kinaidda ti lalaki ti asawana a ni Eva. Nagsikog isuna ket impasngayna ni Cain. Kinuna ti babai, “Nangipasngayak iti lalaki babaen iti tulong ni Yahweh.”
The man knew Eve his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, “I have gotten a man with the LORD’s help.”
2 Kalpasanna, impasngayna ti kabsat ni Cain a ni Abel. Ita, ni Abel ket nagbalin nga agpaspastor, idinto a ni Cain ket nagtrabaho iti daga.
Again she gave birth, to Cain’s brother Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
3 Napasamak nga iti panaglabas ti tiempo, nangidatag ni Cain kadagiti bunga ti daga kas daton kenni Yahweh.
As time passed, Cain brought an offering to the LORD from the fruit of the ground.
4 Ni Abel met ket nangidatag manipud kadagiti umuna nga annak ti arbanna ken kadagiti taba. Inawat ni Yahweh ni Abel ken ti datonna,
Abel also brought some of the firstborn of his flock and of its fat. The LORD respected Abel and his offering,
5 ngem saanna nga inawat ni Cain ken ti datonna. Isu a nakaunget unay ni Cain, ket nagruppanget isuna.
but he did not respect Cain and his offering. Cain was very angry, and the expression on his face fell.
6 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Cain, “Apay ngay met a makaunget ken nakaruppangetka?
The LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why has the expression of your face fallen?
7 No ar-aramidem ti umno, saanka kadi nga awaten? Ngem no saanmo nga ar-aramiden ti umno, agur-uray ti basol iti ruangan ket tartarigagayannaka a tenglen, ngem masapul nga iturayam daytoy.”
If you do well, will not it be lifted up? If you do not do well, sin crouches at the door. Its desire is for you, but you are to rule over it.”
8 Nakisarita ni Cain iti kabsatna a ni Abel, ket kabayatan nga addada iti kataltalunan, dinuklos ni Cain ti kabsatna a ni Abel ket pinatayna isuna.
Cain said to Abel, his brother, “Let’s go into the field.” While they were in the field, Cain rose up against Abel, his brother, and killed him.
9 Kalpasanna, kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Cain, “Sadino ti ayan ti kabsatmo a ni Abel?” Kinunana, “Saanko nga ammo. Siak aya ti para-aywan iti kabsatko?”
The LORD said to Cain, “Where is Abel, your brother?” He said, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s keeper?”
10 Kinuna ni Yahweh, “Ania ti inaramidmo? Umaw-awag kaniak ti dara ti kabsatmo manipud iti daga.
The LORD said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries to me from the ground.
11 Ita, nailunodka iti daga, inungapna dagiti ngiwatna a mangawat iti dara ti kabsatmo manipud iti imam.
Now you are cursed because of the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
12 Manipud ita, no sukayem ti daga, saanna nga ipaay ti pigsana kenka. Aglemmelemmeng ken agalla-allakanto iti daga.”
From now on, when you till the ground, it will not yield its strength to you. You will be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth.”
13 Kinuna ni Cain kenni Yahweh,” Ti dusak ket dakdakkel ngem iti kabaelak.
Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14 Pudno, iti daytoy nga aldaw ket pinatalawnakon manipud iti daytoy a daga ket mailemmengakto manipud iti rupam. Aglemmelemmeng ken agalla-allaakto iti daga, ket siasinoman a makasarak kaniak ket patayennak.”
Behold, you have driven me out today 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. Whoever finds me will kill me.”
15 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “No addaman ti mangpapatay kenni Cain, mabalesto isuna iti maminpito a daras.” Kalpasanna, minarkaan ni Yahweh ni Cain, tapno saanto isuna a dangran ti siasinoman a tao a makasarak kenkuana.
The LORD said to him, “Therefore whoever slays Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold.” The LORD appointed a sign for Cain, so that anyone finding him would not strike him.
16 Isu a pimmanaw ni Cain manipud iti presensia ni Yahweh ket nagnaed iti daga iti Nod, iti daya iti Eden.
Cain left the LORD’s presence, and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17 Kinaidda ni Cain ti asawana ket nagsikog. Impasngayna ni Enoc. Nangibangon isuna iti siudad ket pinanagananna daytoy nga insurotna iti nagan ti putotna a ni Enoc.
Cain knew his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Enoch. He built a city, and named the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
18 Naaddaan ni Enoc iti putot ket isu ni Irad. Naaddaan ni Irad iti putot ket isu ni Mehujael. Naaddan ni Mehujael iti putot ket isu ni Metusael. Naaddaan ni Metusael iti putot ket isu ni Lamec.
Irad was born to Enoch. Irad became the father of Mehujael. Mehujael became the father of Methushael. Methushael became the father of Lamech.
19 Dua iti inasawa ni Lamec: Ada ti nagan ti maysa ken Zilla met ti nagan ti maysa.
Lamech took two wives: the name of the first one was Adah, and the name of the second one was Zillah.
20 Impasngay ni Ada ni Jabal. Isuna ti ama dagiti agnanaed kadagiti tolda nga addaan kadagiti taraken nga ayup.
Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.
21 Jubal ti nagan ti kabsatna a lalaki. Isuna ti ama dagiti agtuktukar iti arpa ken plauta.
His brother’s name was Jubal, who was the father of all who handle the harp and pipe.
22 Ni Zilla met, impasngayna ni Tubal Cain, nga agpanpanday kadagiti alikamen a tanso ken landok. Ti kabsat a babai ni Tubal Cain ket ni Naama.
Zillah also gave birth to Tubal Cain, the forger of every cutting instrument of bronze and iron. Tubal Cain’s sister was Naamah.
23 Kinuna ni Lamec kadagiti assawana, “Ada ken Zilla, dummegkayo iti timekko; dakayo nga assawa ni Lamec, dumngegkayo iti ibagak. Ta nakapatayak iti lalaki gapu iti panangsugatna kaniak, maysa nga agtutubo a lalaki gapu ta dinunornak.
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.
24 No ni Cain ket naibales iti naminpito a daras, pudno a maibales ni Lamec iti pitopulo ket pito a daras.”
If Cain will be avenged seven times, truly Lamech seventy-seven times.”
25 Kinaidda manen ni Adan ti asawana ket naganak iti maysa pay a lalaki. Pinanaganan ni Eva dayta iti Set ket kinunana, “Inikkannak ti Dios iti maysa pay nga anak a lalaki a kasukat ni Abel, ta pinatay isuna ni Cain.”
Adam knew his wife again. She gave birth to a son, and named him Seth, saying, “for God has given me another child instead of Abel, for Cain killed him.”
26 Naaddaan ni Set iti putot ket pinanagananna iti Enos. Kalpasanna, ket inrugi dagiti tattao nga immawag iti nagan ni Yahweh.
A son was also born to Seth, and he named him Enosh. At that time men began to call on the LORD’s name.
