Kejadian 4
1 Kemudian Adam bersetubuh dengan Hawa, istrinya, dan hamillah wanita itu. Ia melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki dan berkata, "Dengan pertolongan TUHAN aku telah mendapat seorang anak laki-laki." Maka dinamakannya anak itu Kain.
Adam slept with his wife Eve and she became pregnant. She gave birth to Cain, and said, “With the Lord's help I have made a man.”
2 Lalu Hawa melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki lagi, namanya Habel. Habel menjadi gembala domba, tetapi Kain menjadi petani.
Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. Abel became a shepherd, while Cain was a crop farmer.
3 Beberapa waktu kemudian Kain mengambil sebagian dari panenannya lalu mempersembahkannya kepada TUHAN.
Sometime later Cain brought some of the produce he'd grown as an offering to the Lord.
4 Lalu Habel mengambil anak domba yang sulung dari salah seekor dombanya, menyembelihnya, lalu mempersembahkan bagian yang paling baik kepada TUHAN. TUHAN senang kepada Habel dan persembahannya,
Abel also brought an offering: the firstborn lambs of his flock, selecting the very best parts to offer. The Lord was pleased with Abel and his offering,
5 tetapi menolak Kain dan persembahannya. Kain menjadi marah sekali, dan mukanya geram.
but he wasn't pleased with Cain and his offering, which made Cain very angry and he frowned in annoyance.
6 Maka berkatalah TUHAN kepada Kain, "Mengapa engkau marah? Mengapa mukamu geram?
The Lord said to Cain, “Why are you so angry? Why do you look so annoyed?
7 Jika engkau berbuat baik, pasti engkau tersenyum; tetapi jika engkau berbuat jahat, maka dosa menunggu untuk masuk ke dalam hatimu. Dosa hendak menguasai dirimu, tetapi engkau harus mengalahkannya."
If you were doing what's right, then you'd be looking happy. But if you don't do what's right, then sin will be like animal crouching outside your home, ready to pounce on you. It wants to have you, but you must be the one in control.”
8 Lalu kata Kain kepada Habel, adiknya, "Mari kita pergi ke ladang." Ketika mereka sampai di situ, Kain menyerang dan membunuh Habel adiknya.
Later, when Cain was talking with his brother Abel they went out into the fields where Cain attacked his brother and killed him.
9 TUHAN bertanya kepada Kain, "Di mana Habel, adikmu?" Kain menjawab, "Saya tak tahu. Haruskah saya menjaga adik saya?"
“Where is your brother Abel?” the Lord asked Cain. “How should I know?” he replied. “Am I supposed to be my brother's care-giver?”
10 Lalu TUHAN berkata, "Mengapa engkau melakukan hal yang mengerikan itu? Darah adikmu berseru kepada-Ku dari tanah, seperti suara yang berteriak minta pembalasan.
“What have you done?” the Lord asked. “Your brother's blood is crying out to me from the ground.
11 Engkau terkutuk sehingga tak bisa lagi mengusahakan tanah. Tanah itu telah menyerap darah adikmu, seolah-olah dibukanya mulutnya untuk menerima darah adikmu itu ketika engkau membunuhnya.
Consequently you are more cursed than the ground because you soaked it with your brother's blood.
12 Jika engkau bercocok tanam, tanah tidak akan menghasilkan apa-apa; engkau akan menjadi pengembara yang tidak punya tempat tinggal di bumi."
When you cultivate the ground, it won't produce crops for you. You'll be always on the run, wandering all over the earth.”
13 Maka kata Kain kepada TUHAN, "Hukuman itu terlalu berat, saya tak dapat menanggungnya.
“My punishment is more than I can take,” Cain replied.
14 Engkau mengusir saya dari tanah ini, jauh dari kehadiran-Mu. Saya akan menjadi pengembara yang tidak punya tempat tinggal di bumi, dan saya akan dibunuh oleh siapa saja yang menemukan saya."
“Look! You're driving me away right now—cursing the ground and banishing me from your presence. I'm going to have to hide and always be on the run, left to wander all over the earth. Anyone who finds me is going to kill me!”
15 Tetapi TUHAN berkata, "Tidak. Kalau engkau dibunuh, maka sebagai pembalasan, tujuh orang termasuk pembunuhmu itu akan dibunuh juga." Kemudian TUHAN menaruh tanda pada Kain supaya siapa saja yang bertemu dengan dia jangan membunuhnya.
But the Lord replied, “No, Cain. Anyone who kills you will be punished seven times over.” The Lord placed a mark on Cain so that no one who came across him would kill him.
16 Lalu pergilah Kain dari hadapan TUHAN dan tinggal di tanah yang bernama "Pengembaraan" di sebelah timur Eden.
So Cain left the Lord's presence and went to live in a land called Nod, east of Eden.
17 Kain dan istrinya mendapat anak laki-laki, yang diberi nama Henokh. Kemudian Kain mendirikan sebuah kota dan dinamakannya kota itu menurut nama anaknya itu.
Cain slept with his wife and she became pregnant. She had a son named Enoch. At that time Cain was building a town, so he named it after his son Enoch.
18 Henokh ayah Irad. Irad ayah Mehuyael. Mehuyael ayah Metusael, dan Metusael adalah ayah Lamekh.
Enoch had a son named Irad. Irad was the father of Mehujael, Mehujael was the father of Methushael, and Methushael was the father of Lamech.
19 Lamekh mempunyai dua orang istri, Ada dan Zila.
Lamech married two women. The first was named Adah, and the second was named Zillah.
20 Ada melahirkan Yabal, dan keturunan Yabal itulah bangsa yang memelihara ternak dan tinggal dalam kemah.
Adah had a son named Jabal. He was the father of those who live in tents and have livestock.
21 Adiknya bernama Yubal, dan keturunan Yubal adalah pemain musik kecapi dan seruling.
He had a brother named Jubal; he was the father of all those who play stringed and wind instruments.
22 Zila melahirkan Tubal-Kain, dan keturunannya membuat segala macam perkakas dari tembaga dan besi. Adik perempuan Tubal-Kain bernama Naama.
Zillah also had a son. He was named Tubal-cain and he was a blacksmith, making different kinds of tools out of bronze and iron. Tubal-cain's sister was named Naamah.
23 Berkatalah Lamekh kepada kedua istrinya, "Ada dan Zila, dengarkan! Seorang pemuda kubunuh karena telah menghantam aku.
At one time Lamech told his wives, “Adah and Zillah, listen to me. You wives of Lamech, pay attention to what I have to say. I killed a man because he wounded me; I killed a young man because he injured me.
24 Kalau tujuh orang dibunuh untuk membalas pembunuhan Kain, maka tujuh puluh tujuh orang akan dibunuh kalau aku dibunuh."
If the sentence for killing Cain was to be punished seven times over, then if someone kills me, Lamech, the punishment should be seventy-seven times.”
25 Adam dan istrinya mendapat seorang anak laki-laki lagi. Kata Hawa, "Allah telah memberi aku anak laki-laki sebagai ganti Habel, yang telah dibunuh oleh Kain." Sebab itu Hawa menamakan anak itu Set.
Adam slept with his wife again, and she had a son and named him Seth, explaining that, “God has given me another child to replace Abel, the one Cain killed.”
26 Set mempunyai anak laki-laki yang diberi nama Enos. Pada zaman itulah orang mulai menyebut nama TUHAN bila menyembah.
Later Seth had a son named Enosh, because at that time people began to worship the Lord by name.
