< Jenesis 4 >
1 Adamu'a nenaro Ivi'ene masegeno amu'ene huno ne'mofavre kasenenteno ana a'mo'a huno, Anumzamo naza hige'na ne'mofavre erifore hue, nehuno Keni'e huno agi'a antemi'ne.
UAdamu wasemazi uEva umkakhe; wasethatha isisu, wabeletha uKhayini, wasesithi: Ngizuze indoda eNkosini.
2 Hagi henka Ivi'a Keni neganana Abeli kasentegeno ana ne'mo'a ra huno sipisipi afu kegava higeno, Keni'a mopafi eri'za erino hoza anteno kegava hu'ne.
Wasebuya ebeletha umfowabo uAbela. UAbela wasesiba ngumelusi wezimvu, loKhayini waba ngumlimi womhlabathi.
3 Magokna Keni'a Ra Anumzamofo ofa hunteku hoza'afinti ne'za erino e'ne.
Kwasekusithi ekupheleni kwezinsuku uKhayini waletha eNkosini umnikelo owesithelo somhlabathi.
4 Ana higeno Abeli'a sipisipi afutamimpinti afovage hu'nea agonesa afu mago aheno eme Kresramana vuntegeno, Ra Anumzamo'a negeno Abelina antahi muse hunte'ne.
LoAbela, waletha laye emazibulweni ezimvu zakhe lakwezinonileyo zawo; iNkosi yasinaka uAbela lomnikelo wakhe.
5 Hianagi Keni'ma ofa hunte'neaza keteno, Anumzamo'a antahi musena huontegeno, Kenina tusi asi vazigeno avugosa rugriri'ne.
Kodwa uKhayini lomnikelo wakhe kayiwunakanga. UKhayini wasethukuthela kakhulu, lobuso bakhe banyukubala.
6 Ana higeno Ra Anumzamo'a negeno Keninkura amanage hu'ne, Nahigenka krimpagna nehunka kavugosa runegaririne?
INkosi yasisithi kuKhayini: Uthukutheleleni, njalo kungani ubuso bakho bunyukubele?
7 Hagi kagra'ma knare kavu'kava'ma hantesina Nagra muse hugantosine. Hanki kagrama havizama hanankeno'a, kumimo'a kazeri kagateregahianki, kagra hankavetinka mani'nenka kumira azeri agatero.
Angithi uba usenza kuhle, kuyemukeleka yini? Kodwa uba ungenzi kuhle, isono siyacathama emnyango, lokunxwanela kwakhe kukuwe, kodwa wena uzambusa.
8 Hagi mago knazupa Keni'a nagana'amofo Abelinku hofa trampi vanu'e huno agi higeke, vukema ana hofa trampi umanineke, Keni'a nagna'amofo Abelina ahe fri'ne.
UKhayini wasekhuluma loAbela umfowabo; kwasekusithi besegangeni, uKhayini wasukela umfowabo uAbela wambulala.
9 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a Kenina antahigeno, Negagna Abeli'a inantega mani'ne? Higeno Keni'a huno, Nagra onke'noanki, Kagrama kagesama antahinana nagra nagananimofo kva hunte ne' mani'nofi?
INkosi yasisithi kuKhayini: Ungaphi uAbela umfowenu? Wasesithi: Angazi; ngingumlondolozi womfowethu yini?
10 Higeno Ra Anumzana Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Kagra na'a higenka kefo kavukvara hu'nane? Nagnakamofo koramo'a mopafi tagiramineno keaga hunto huno Nagritega krafage nehie.
Yasisithi: Wenzeni? Ilizwi legazi lomfowenu liyakhala kimi livela emhlabathini.
11 Hagi nagna kamofoma ahenka eri taginana koramo'a, mopafi tagiramigeno mopamo ne'negu, ana mopa kazusi huntoankino ne'zana forera osugahie.
Khathesi-ke uqalekisiwe emhlabeni okhamise umlomo wawo ukwemukela igazi lomfowenu esandleni sakho.
12 Hagi mopafima hozama erinka antesnana hozamo'a, hikazake huno nena ahenonte'na, nonka'a omanena kanke kanke hunka ama mopafina vano hugahane.
Nxa ulima umhlabathi, kawusayikukunika amandla awo; uzakuba luzulane lomhambuma emhlabeni.
13 Keni'a amanage huno Ra Anumzamofo kenona hu'ne, Nagri'ma hunantana kemo'a tusi'a kna navesie!
UKhayini wasesithi eNkosini: Isijeziso sami sikhulu kulengingakuthwala.
14 Hanki kama antahio! Kagra ama mopafinti nagrira meni nazeri atranankina, Kagri kavuga omaninugeno, noni'a omane'nenigena ama mopafina kanke kanke neha'nena, aza'o nagesuno'a nahe frigahie.
Khangela, ungixotshile lamuhla ebusweni bomhlaba, njalo ngizacatshiswa ebusweni bakho; sengizakuba luzulane lomhambuma emhlabeni; njalo kuzakuthi wonke ongificayo uzangibulala.
15 Higeno Ra Anumzamo'a kenona'a huno, Kagri'ma kahesimo'a ana nona'a 7ni'a zupa kna'zana agetereno erigahie, nehuno Kenima vahe'mo'zama negezama ohesnagu mago avame'za agofetu antente'ne.
INkosi yasisithi kuye: Ngakho, loba ngubani obulala uKhayini uzaphindiselwa kasikhombisa. INkosi yasibeka uphawu kuKhayini, hlezi loba ngubani omficayo ambulale.
16 Ana higeno Ra Anumzamofo avugatira Keni'a atreno Ideni hozamofo zage hanati kaziga vuno, Nodi mopare umani'ne.
UKhayini wasesuka ebusweni beNkosi, wasehlala elizweni leNodi, empumalanga kweEdeni.
17 Keni'a nenaro'ene masegeno amu'ene huno ne'mofavre kasenteno, agi'a Inoku'e huno ante'ne. Hagi anante mago rankuma erifore huno kiteno, ana kumamofo agi'a Inoku'e huno mofavre'amofo agire asamre'ne.
UKhayini wasemazi umkakhe; wasethatha isisu, wabeletha uEnoki; njalo wayesakha umuzi, wabiza ibizo lomuzi ngebizo lendodana yakhe uEnoki.
18 Hagi Inoku'a mago mofavre eri fore huno agi'a Iradi'e hu'ne. Iradi'a Mehusaeli nefa'za higeno, Mehusaeli'a Metusael nefa'za higeno, Metusaeli'a Lemeki nafa'za hu'ne.
Kwasekuzalelwa uEnoki uIradi; uIradi wasezala uMehujayeli; uMehujayeli wasezala uMethushayeli; uMethushayeli wasezala uLameki.
19 Hagi Lemeki'a tare atre zanante'ne, mago'mofo agi'a Ada'e, mago a'mofo agi'a Zila'e.
ULameki wasezithathela abafazi ababili, ibizo lowokuqala lalinguAda, lebizo lowesibili lalinguZila.
20 Ada'a ne'mofavre kasenteno agi'a Jabali'e huno ante'neankino, fugagi noma ki'za nemase'za afu'ma kegava nehaza vahe'mokizmi nezamageho'e.
UAda wasezala uJabali; yena wayenguyise walabo abahlala emathenteni, belezifuyo.
21 Hagi ngana'amofo agi'a Jubali'e. Jubali'a ese'ma agafa huno nofite zavena (harp) nehaza naga'mokizmi nezamageho'e.
Lebizo lomfowabo lalinguJubali, yena wayenguyise wakhe wonke olokwenza lechacho lomhlanga.
22 Hanki Zila'a Tubalkein kasente'neankino, agra aenima, kopama tevefi krefizo huteno amasagino eri'zama eri'zantami tro nehia nere. Tubalkeini nesaro agi'a Na'ama'e.
UZila laye wasezala uThubhali-Khayini, umkhandi wakho konke okusikayo kwethusi lensimbi. Lodadewabo kaThubhali-Khayini wayenguNahama.
23 Mago zupa Lemeki'a nenaro kiznigura amanage huno zanasmi'ne, Adagane Zilagata'a kama antahi'o, mago nehaza ne'mo nahe kuzafa antege'na, agrira ete ahe fri'noe.
ULameki wasesithi kubafazi bakhe: Ada loZila, zwanini ilizwi lami, bafazi bakaLameki, bekani indlebe ekukhulumeni kwami; ngoba ngabulala indoda ngenxa yokungilimaza, lomfana ngenxa yokungihluzula.
24 Hagi mago ne'mo'ma, Kenima eme ahe frisanuno'a, 7ni'a zupa knazana eri agofetu huno erigahie. Hianagi tamage huno nagri'ma Lemeki'nama eme nahesanuno'a, 77ni'a knazana agofetu huno nona'a erigahie.
Nxa uKhayini ephindiselwa kasikhombisa, isibili uLameki kamatshumi ayisikhombisa ephindwe kasikhombisa.
25 Hagi Adamu'a nenaro'ene masegeno ne' mofavre kasenteno amanage hu'ne, Keni'ma Abelima ahe fri'nea nona'a Anumzamo'a ne'mofavrea namiankino agi'a Seti'e.
UAdamu wasephinda wamazi umkakhe; wasezala indodana, wasebiza ibizo layo wathi nguSeti; ngoba wathi: UNkulunkulu ungibekele enye inzalo esikhundleni sikaAbela, ngoba uKhayini wambulala.
26 Henka'a Setina ne'mofavre fore humigeno agi'a Enosi'e huno antemi'ne. Ana knafi vahe'mo'za erigafa hu'za Ra Anumzamofo agihanta nevazi'za, Agrite mono hunte'naze.
Laye uSeti wasezalelwa indodana, wabiza ibizo layo wathi nguEnosi. Ngalesosikhathi baqala ukubiza ibizo leNkosi.
