< Genesis 4 >
1 Na Adam el ona yurin mutan kial, ac mutan sac pitutuyak. El oswela wen se ac fahk, “LEUM GOD El kasreyu ac se wen se nutik.” Ouinge el sang inel Cain.
And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.
2 Tok el oswela pac wen se, Abel. Abel el mwet liyaung sheep, a Cain el mwet ima se.
And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
3 In kutu pacl tok, Cain el use kutu fokin ima lal, ac sang tuh in mwe kisa nu sin LEUM GOD.
And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
4 Na Abel el use sheep fusr soko ma osweyukla oemeet sin soko sheep natul. El uniya ac sang ip ma wo emeet kac in mwe kisa. LEUM GOD El insewowo sel Abel ac ke mwe kisa lal,
And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:
5 a El tia insewowo sel Cain ac mwe kisa lal. Cain el arulana foloyak, ac ngetnget toasr ke kasrkusrak lal.
But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
6 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Cain, “Efu ku kom kasrkusrak? Efu kom srasrol?
And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
7 Kom funu oru ma wo, kom lukun israsr na. A ke koluk ma kom oru an, na ma koluk uh tawi kom na in sruokkomi. El kena leumi kom, tusruktu kom enenu in kutangulla.”
If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee [shall be] his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
8 Na Cain el fahk nu sel Abel, tamulel lal, “Fahsru kital som nu inima uh.” Ke pacl se eltal sun inima uh, na Cain el forang nu sel Abel ac unilya.
And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
9 LEUM GOD El siyuk sel Cain, “El aya Abel, tamulel lom?” El topuk, “Nga nikin. Mea, nga mwet in liyaung tamulel luk uh?”
And the LORD said unto Cain, Where [is] Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: [Am] I my brother’s keeper?
10 Na LEUM GOD El fahk, “Efu ku kom oru ma na koluk se inge? Srahn tamulel lom pa wowoyak nu sik infohk uh me, oana sie pusra ma sukok foloksak.
And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground.
11 Inge kom oan ye sie selnga ac kom fah tia ku in sifilpa imai fohk uh. Fohk uh numwani srahn tamulel lom, oana sie oalu su mangelik soano in numla srahl ke pacl se kom unilya ah.
And now [art] thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand;
12 Kom fin srike in yok sacn, infohk uh ac fah tia oswe kutena ma. Ac fah wangin acn sum, ac kom fah forfor pukafukwel fin faclu.”
When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.
13 Ac Cain el fahk nu sin LEUM GOD, “Kalya se inge arulana upala nu sik.
And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment [is] greater than I can bear.
14 Kom lisyula liki acn uh in som loesla liki ye motom. Nga fah sie mwet wangin acn se, takusrkusr fin faclu, ac kutena mwet fin koneyuyak ac uniyuwi.”
Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, [that] every one that findeth me shall slay me.
15 Tusruktu LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mo. Mwet se fin unikomi, moul lun mwet itkosr fah itukla in aolkomla.” Ke ma inge LEUM GOD El filiya sie akul facl Cain in akesmakinye kutena mwet su sonol in tia unilya.
And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
16 Ac Cain el som liki ye mutun LEUM GOD ac muta in acn se pangpang “Nod,” su oan kutulap in acn Eden.
And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.
17 Oasr wen se natul Cain ac mutan kial, ac eltal sang inel Enoch. Na Cain el musaela siti se ac sang inen wen se natul ah nu kac.
And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.
18 Oasr wen se natul Enoch, inel pa Irad, su papa tumal Mehujael. Ac wen se natul Mehujael pa Methushael, su papa tumal Lamech.
And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech.
19 Oasr mutan luo kial Lamech, eltal pa Adah ac Zillah.
And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one [was] Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
20 Adah el oswella Jabal, su papa matu tumun mwet tohf kosro ac muta in lohm nuknuk.
And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and [of such as have] cattle.
21 Tamulel se lal Jabal pa Jubal, ac el papa tumun mwet orek on nukewa su srital ke mwe on harp ac flute.
And his brother’s name [was] Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ.
22 Zillah el oswella Tubal Cain, sie mwet su oru kain in kufwen sroasr nukewa ke osra bronze ac iron. Tamtael se lal Tubal Cain pa Naamah.
And Zillah, she also bare Tubal-cain, an instructer of every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubal-cain [was] Naamah.
23 Lamech el fahk nu sin mutan luo kial, “Adah ac Zillah, porongeyu: Nga uniya mwet fusr se mweyen el tuh puokyuwi.
And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
24 Moul lun mwet itkosr fin itukla in aol misa lal Cain, Na mwet itngoul itkosr ac fah itukla moul la, mwet se fin uniyuwi.”
If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
25 Adam ac mutan kial oswela sie pac wen. Na mutan sac fahk, “God El sifilpa ase wen se nutik in aolulla Abel, su Cain el uniya.” Ke ma inge el sang inel Seth.
And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, [said she], hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
26 Oasr pac wen se natul Seth, ac el sang inel Enosh. In pacl sac me pa mwet uh mutawauk in orekmakin ine mutal lun LEUM GOD ke alu lalos.
And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.
