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.
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 Un tā vēl dzemdēja viņa brāli, Ābelu; un Ābels palika par avju ganu, bet Kains palika par zemes kopēju.
Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. Abel became a shepherd, while Cain was a crop farmer.
3 Un notikās pēc kāda laika, ka Kains Tam Kungam upuri nesa no zemes augļiem.
Sometime later Cain brought some of the produce he'd grown as an offering 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 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 Bet Kainu un viņa upuri Viņš neuzlūkoja. Tad iedegās Kaina bardzība, un viņa vaigs raudzījās nikni.
but he wasn't pleased with Cain and his offering, which made Cain very angry and he frowned in annoyance.
6 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Kainu: kam tu esi apskaities, un kādēļ tavs vaigs raugās nikni?
The Lord said to Cain, “Why are you so angry? Why do you look so annoyed?
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 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 Un notikās, kad tie bija laukā, tad Kains cēlās pret Ābelu, savu brāli, un to nokāva.
Later, when Cain was talking with his brother Abel they went out into the fields where Cain attacked his brother and killed him.
9 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Kainu: kur ir Ābels, tavs brālis? Un tas sacīja: es nezinu. Vai tad es sava brāļa sargs?
“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 Un Viņš sacīja: ko tu esi darījis? Tava brāļa asiņu balss brēc uz Mani no zemes.
“What have you done?” the Lord asked. “Your brother's blood is crying out to me from the ground.
11 Un nu esi nolādēts, nost no zemes, kas savu muti atpletusi, tava brāļa asinis saņemt no tavām rokām.
Consequently you are more cursed than the ground because you soaked it with your brother's blood.
12 Kad tu zemi strādāsi, tad tā vairs tev nedos savu spēku; tekulis un bēglis tu būsi virs zemes.
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 Un Kains sacīja uz To Kungu: mans noziegums ir lielāks, nekā to varētu panest.
“My punishment is more than I can take,” Cain replied.
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.
“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 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.
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 Un Kains aizgāja no Tā Kunga vaiga un mita Nodzemē, Ēdenei pret rītiem.
So Cain left the Lord's presence and went to live in a land called Nod, east 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.
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 Un Ēnoham dzima Īrads, un Īrads dzemdināja Meūjaēlu, un Meūjaēls dzemdināja Metusaēlu, un Metusaēls dzemdināja Lāmehu.
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 Un Lāmehs apņēma divas sievas; pirmai bija vārds Ada, un otrai bija vārds Cilla.
Lamech married two women. The first was named Adah, and the second was named Zillah.
20 Un Ada dzemdēja Jabalu; tas ir tēvs bijis tiem, kas teltīs dzīvoja un lopus audzināja.
Adah had a son named Jabal. He was the father of those who live in tents and have livestock.
21 Un viņa brāļa vārds bija Jubals; tas ir tēvs bijis visiem koklētājiem un stabulniekiem.
He had a brother named Jubal; he was the father of all those who play stringed and wind instruments.
22 Un Cilla arīdzan dzemdēja Tubalkaīnu, kas bija visādu vara un dzelzs rīku kalējs. Un Tubalkaīna māsa bija Naēma.
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 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.
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 Jo Kains taps septiņkārt atriebts, bet Lāmehs septiņdesmit septiņkārt.
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 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 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 Un Setam arī dzima dēls, un tas nosauca viņa vārdu Enosu. Tai laikā iesāka piesaukt Tā Kunga vārdu.
Later Seth had a son named Enosh, because at that time people began to worship the Lord by name.
