Pirmā Mozus 4
1 Un Ādams atzina Ievu, savu sievu, un tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja Kainu un sacīja: es esmu dabūjusi vīru ar To Kungu.
And Adam knew Eve his wife: who conceived and brought forth Cain, saying: I have gotten a man through God.
2 Un tā vēl dzemdēja viņa brāli, Ābelu; un Ābels palika par avju ganu, bet Kains palika par zemes kopēju.
And again she brought forth his brother Abel. And Abel was a shepherd, and Cain a husbandman.
3 Un notikās pēc kāda laika, ka Kains Tam Kungam upuri nesa no zemes augļiem.
And it came to pass after many days, that Cain offered, of the fruits of the earth, gifts to the Lord.
4 Un Ābels arīdzan nesa no savu avju pirmdzimtiem un no viņu taukiem. Un Tas Kungs uzlūkoja Ābelu un viņa upuri.
Abel also offered of the firstlings of his flock, and of their fat: and the Lord had respect to Abel, and to his offerings.
5 Bet Kainu un viņa upuri Viņš neuzlūkoja. Tad iedegās Kaina bardzība, un viņa vaigs raudzījās nikni.
But to Cain and his offerings he had no respect: and Cain was exceedingly angry, and his countenance fell.
6 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Kainu: kam tu esi apskaities, un kādēļ tavs vaigs raugās nikni?
And the Lord said to him: Why art thou angry? and why is thy countenance fallen?
7 Vai nav tā: ja tu darīsi pareizi, tad vari savu vaigu pacelt; bet ja tu darīsi nepareizi, tad grēks guļ priekš durvīm un tīko pēc tevis, - bet tu, valdi pār viņu. Un Kains runāja ar savu brāli Ābelu.
If thou do well, shalt thou not receive? but if ill, shall not sin forthwith be present at the door? but the lust thereof shall be under thee, and thou shalt have dominion over it.
8 Un notikās, kad tie bija laukā, tad Kains cēlās pret Ābelu, savu brāli, un to nokāva.
And Cain said to Abel his brother: Let us go forth abroad. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and slew him.
9 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Kainu: kur ir Ābels, tavs brālis? Un tas sacīja: es nezinu. Vai tad es sava brāļa sargs?
And the Lord said to Cain: Where is thy brother Abel? And he answered, I know not: am I my brother’s keeper?
10 Un Viņš sacīja: ko tu esi darījis? Tava brāļa asiņu balss brēc uz Mani no zemes.
And he said to him: What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth to me from the earth.
11 Un nu esi nolādēts, nost no zemes, kas savu muti atpletusi, tava brāļa asinis saņemt no tavām rokām.
Now, therefore, cursed shalt thou be upon the earth, which hath opened her mouth and received the blood of thy brother at thy hand.
12 Kad tu zemi strādāsi, tad tā vairs tev nedos savu spēku; tekulis un bēglis tu būsi virs zemes.
When thou shalt till it, it shall not yield to thee its fruit: a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be upon the earth.
13 Un Kains sacīja uz To Kungu: mans noziegums ir lielāks, nekā to varētu panest.
And Cain said to the Lord: My iniquity is greater than that I may deserve pardon.
14 Redzi, Tu mani šodien izdzen no zemes, un man būs paslēpties no Tava vaiga un es būšu tekulis un bēglis virs zemes, un notiks, ka ikviens, kas mani atrod, tas mani nokaus.
Behold thou dost cast me out this day from the face of the earth, and I shall be hidden from thy face, and I shall be a vagabond and a fugitive on the earth: every one, therefore, that findeth me, shall kill me.
15 Un Tas Kungs uz to sacīja: tādēļ, kas Kainu nokauj, tas taps septiņkārt atriebts. Un Tas Kungs pielika Kainam zīmi, lai to nenokautu, kas to atrastu.
And the Lord said to him: No, it shall not be so: but whosoever shall kill Cain, shall be punished sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, that whosoever found him should not kill him.
16 Un Kains aizgāja no Tā Kunga vaiga un mita Nodzemē, Ēdenei pret rītiem.
And Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and dwelt as a fugitive on the earth, at the east side of Eden.
17 Un Kains atzina savu sievu, un tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja Ēnohu; un viņš uztaisīja pilsētu un nosauca tās pilsētas vārdu pēc sava dēla vārda Ēnohu.
And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and brought forth Henoch: and he built a city, and called the name thereof by the name of his son Henoch.
18 Un Ēnoham dzima Īrads, un Īrads dzemdināja Meūjaēlu, un Meūjaēls dzemdināja Metusaēlu, un Metusaēls dzemdināja Lāmehu.
And Henoch begot Irad, and Irad begot Maviael, and Maviael begot Mathusael, and Mathusael begot Lamech:
19 Un Lāmehs apņēma divas sievas; pirmai bija vārds Ada, un otrai bija vārds Cilla.
Who took two wives: the name of the one was Ada, and the name of the other Sella.
20 Un Ada dzemdēja Jabalu; tas ir tēvs bijis tiem, kas teltīs dzīvoja un lopus audzināja.
And Ada brought forth Jabel: who was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of herdsmen.
21 Un viņa brāļa vārds bija Jubals; tas ir tēvs bijis visiem koklētājiem un stabulniekiem.
And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of them that play upon the harp and the organs.
22 Un Cilla arīdzan dzemdēja Tubalkaīnu, kas bija visādu vara un dzelzs rīku kalējs. Un Tubalkaīna māsa bija Naēma.
Sella also brought forth Tubalcain, who was a hammerer and artificer in every work of brass and iron. And the sister of Tubalcain was Noema.
23 Un Lāmehs sacīja uz savām sievām: Ada un Cilla, klausiet manu balsi, jūs Lāmeha sievas, ņemiet vērā manus vārdus! Jo es vīru nokauju par savu vāti un jaunekli par savu brūci.
And Lamech said to his wives Ada and Sella: Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, hearken to my speech: for I have slain a man to the wounding of myself, and a stripling to my own bruising.
24 Jo Kains taps septiņkārt atriebts, bet Lāmehs septiņdesmit septiņkārt.
Sevenfold vengeance shall be taken for Cain: but for Lamech seventy times sevenfold.
25 Un Ādams atzina atkal savu sievu, un tā dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Setu; jo (tā sacīja: ) Dievs man ir licis citu dzimumu Ābela vietā, jo Kains to ir nokāvis.
Adam also knew his wife again: and she brought forth a son, and called his name Seth, saying: God hath given me another seed, for Abel whom Cain slew.
26 Un Setam arī dzima dēls, un tas nosauca viņa vārdu Enosu. Tai laikā iesāka piesaukt Tā Kunga vārdu.
But to Seth also was born a son, whom he called Enos; this man began to call upon the name of the Lord.
