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 the man knew Eve his wife; and she conceived and bore Cain, and said: 'I have gotten a man with the help of the LORD.'
2 Un tā vēl dzemdēja viņa brāli, Ābelu; un Ābels palika par avju ganu, bet Kains palika par zemes kopēju.
And again she bore his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
3 Un notikās pēc kāda laika, ka Kains Tam Kungam upuri nesa no zemes augļiem.
And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
4 Un Ābels arīdzan nesa no savu avju pirmdzimtiem un no viņu taukiem. Un Tas Kungs uzlūkoja Ābelu un viņa upuri.
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 Bet Kainu un viņa upuri Viņš neuzlūkoja. Tad iedegās Kaina bardzība, un viņa vaigs raudzījās nikni.
but unto Cain and to his offering He had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, 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 unto Cain: 'Why art thou wroth? 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 doest well, shall it not be lifted up? and if thou doest not well, sin coucheth at the door; and unto thee is its desire, but thou mayest rule over it.'
8 Un notikās, kad tie bija laukā, tad Kains cēlās pret Ābelu, savu brāli, un to nokāva.
And Cain spoke unto 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 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 unto Cain: 'Where is Abel thy brother?' And he said: '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: 'What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto Me from the ground.
11 Un nu esi nolādēts, nost no zemes, kas savu muti atpletusi, tava brāļa asinis saņemt no tavām rokām.
And now cursed art thou from the ground, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand.
12 Kad tu zemi strādāsi, tad tā vairs tev nedos savu spēku; tekulis un bēglis tu būsi virs zemes.
When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a wanderer shalt thou be in the earth.'
13 Un Kains sacīja uz To Kungu: mans noziegums ir lielāks, nekā to varētu panest.
And Cain said unto the LORD: 'My punishment is greater than I can bear.
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 hast driven me out this day from the face of the land; and from Thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth; and it will come to pass, that whosoever findeth me will slay 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 unto him: 'Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold.' And the LORD set a sign for Cain, lest any finding him should smite him.
16 Un Kains aizgāja no Tā Kunga vaiga un mita Nodzemē, Ēdenei pret rītiem.
And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the 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.
And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bore Enoch; and he builded a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch.
18 Un Ēnoham dzima Īrads, un Īrads dzemdināja Meūjaēlu, un Meūjaēls dzemdināja Metusaēlu, un Metusaēls dzemdināja Lāmehu.
And unto Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael; and Mehujael begot Methushael; and Methushael begot Lamech.
19 Un Lāmehs apņēma divas sievas; pirmai bija vārds Ada, un otrai bija vārds Cilla.
And Lamech took unto him two wives; the name of one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
20 Un Ada dzemdēja Jabalu; tas ir tēvs bijis tiem, kas teltīs dzīvoja un lopus audzināja.
And Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of such as dwell in tents and have cattle.
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 all such as handle the harp and pipe.
22 Un Cilla arīdzan dzemdēja Tubalkaīnu, kas bija visādu vara un dzelzs rīku kalējs. Un Tubalkaīna māsa bija Naēma.
And Zillah, she also bore Tubal-cain, the forger of every cutting instrument of brass and iron; and the sister of Tubal-cain was 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.
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 for wounding me, and a young man for bruising me;
24 Jo Kains taps septiņkārt atriebts, bet Lāmehs septiņdesmit septiņkārt.
If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and 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.
And Adam knew his wife again; and she bore a son, and called his name Seth: 'for God hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel; for Cain slew him.'
26 Un Setam arī dzima dēls, un tas nosauca viņa vārdu Enosu. Tai laikā iesāka piesaukt Tā Kunga vārdu.
And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enosh; then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.
