1 Adamu n’amanya Kaawa, mukazi we, n’aba olubuto n’azaala Kayini n’agamba nti, “Mukama annyambye nzadde omuntu.”
Afei, Adam de ne ho kaa ne yere Hawa ma ɔnyinsɛne woo abarimaa a wɔfrɛ no Kain. Na ɔkaa sɛ, Awurade adaworoma, mawo ɔbabarima.
2 Oluvannyuma n’azaala muganda we Aberi. Aberi n’aba mulunzi, ye Kayini n’abeera mulimi.
Akyire no, ɔsane woo nʼakyiri ɔbabarima too no edin Habel. Na Habel bɛyɛɛ odwanhwɛfoɔ, ɛnna Kain nso bɛyɛɛ okuafoɔ.
3 Awo ennaku bwe zaayitawo Kayini n’alyoka aleeta ebibala by’ebimera ebyava mu ttaka okubiwaayo eri Mukama.
Nna bi akyiri, Kain de nʼafuom nnɔbaeɛ bi kɔbɔɔ Awurade afɔdeɛ.
4 Aberi naye n’aleeta ku baana b’endiga ze ababereberye n’amasavu gaazo. Mukama n’asiima Aberi n’ekiweebwayo kye.
Habel nso de ne nyɛmmoa no mu mmakan a wɔadɔre sradeɛ kɔbɔɔ Onyankopɔn afɔdeɛ. Awurade ani sɔɔ Habel afɔrebɔdeɛ no.
5 Naye teyasiima Kayini wadde ekiweebwayo kye. Awo Kayini n’asunguwala nnyo, n’endabika y’amaaso ge n’ewaanyisibwa.
Nanso Kain afɔrebɔdeɛ no deɛ, nʼani ansɔ. Asɛm no anyɛ Kain dɛ, na ne bo fuiɛ.
6 Mukama n’abuuza Kayini nti, “Osunguwalidde ki? Era n’endabika y’amaaso go lwaki ewaanyisiddwa?
Awurade bisaa Kain sɛ, “Adɛn enti na wo bo afuo? Adɛn enti na woamuna saa?
7 Bw’onookolanga obulungi tokkirizibwenga? Naye bw’otokole bulungi ekibi, kiri kumpi naawe, nga kikulindiridde, naye oteekwa okukiwangula.”
Sɛ woyɛ ade pa a, wɔbɛgye wo atom. Sɛ wonyɛ ade pa deɛ a, ɛnneɛ, hwɛ yie. Ɛfiri sɛ, bɔne retwɛn ako atia wo, asɛe wo, nanso ɛsɛ sɛ wodi ne so.”
8 Kayini n’agamba Aberi muganda we nti, “Tulageko mu nnimiro.” Bwe baali nga bali mu nnimiro Kayini n’agolokokera ku muganda we Aberi, n’amutta.
Ɛda bi Kain ka kyerɛɛ ne nua Habel sɛ, “Ma yɛnkɔ afuom.” Ɛberɛ a wɔwɔ afuom hɔ no, Kain to hyɛɛ ne nua Habel so, kumm no.
9 Awo Mukama n’abuuza Kayini nti, “Muganda wo Aberi ali ludda wa?” N’amuddamu nti, “Ssimanyi; nze mukuumi wa muganda wange?”
Awurade bisaa Kain sɛ, “Wo nua Habel wɔ he?” Kain buaa sɛ, “Mennim. Mɛyɛ dɛn mahunu? Me na mehwɛ me nua no so anaa?”
10 Mukama n’amugamba nti, “Okoze ki? Eddoboozi ly’omusaayi gwa muganda wo oguyiyiddwa ku ttaka linkaabirira.
Awurade bisaa Kain sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na woayɛ yi? Tie! Wo nua mogya su firi asase so frɛ me.
11 Ne kaakano okolimiddwa, era ettaka lyasamye okumira omusaayi gwa muganda wo gwe wasse.
Seesei, wɔadome wo, apamo wo afiri asase a ɛbuee nʼano gyee wo nua mogya firii wo nsam no so.
12 Bw’onoolimanga ettaka teriikuwenga bibala byalyo; onoobanga momboze ku nsi.”
Sɛ woyɛ asase no so adwuma sɛ ɛdeɛn ara a, worennya nnɔbaeɛ biara mfiri so. Wobɛyɛ ɔkobɔfoɔ, akyinkyin asase so.”
13 Kayini n’agamba Mukama nti, “Ekibonerezo kyange kinzitooweredde sikisobola.
Kain kaa sɛ, “Awurade mʼasotweɛ boro me so.
14 Laba, ongobye okuva ku nsi ne mu maaso go; era nnaabanga momboze ne buli anandaba ananzita.”
Ɛnnɛ, woapam me afiri asase so ne wʼanim. Mɛyɛ ɔkobɔfoɔ akyinkyin asase so na obiara a ɔbɛnya me no bɛkum me.”
15 Awo Mukama n’amugamba nti, “Nedda si bwe kiri. Buli alitta Kayini ndimuwalana emirundi musanvu.” Awo Mukama n’ateeka akabonero ku Kayini, buli amulaba aleme okumutta.
Nanso, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛnte saa koraa! Obiara a ɔbɛkum Kain no bɛnya Kain asotwe no mprɛnson.” Afei, Awurade hyɛɛ Kain agyiraeɛ bi sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, obiara a ɔbɛhyia no no renkum no.
16 Kayini n’alyoka ava mu maaso ga Mukama, n’abeera mu nsi ya Enodi ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olwa Adeni.
Enti, Kain dwane firii Awurade anim, kɔtenaa Nod asase so wɔ Eden apueeɛ fam.
17 Kayini n’amanya mukazi we, n’aba olubuto n’azaala Enoka. Kayini n’azimba ekibuga n’akituuma erinnya lyerimu erya mutabani we Enoka.
Kain de ne ho kaa ne yere na ɔnyinsɛnee, woo ɔbabarima, too no edin Henok. Saa ɛberɛ no, Kain kyekyeree kuro bi de too ne ba Henok.
18 Enoka n’azaalirwa Iradi ne Iradi n’azaala Mekujeeri, ne Mekujeeri n’azaala Mesuseera, ne Mesuseera n’azaala Lameka.
Henok woo Irad. Irad woo Mehuyael. Mehuyael woo Metusael. Metusael woo Lamek.
19 Lameka n’awasa abakazi babiri: omu yali Ada n’omulala nga ye Zira.
Lamek waree mmaa baanu a wɔn din de Ada ne Sila.
20 Ada n’azaala Yabali. Ono ye yali kitaawe w’abo ababeera mu weema nga balunda.
Ada woo Yabal a nʼasefoɔ yɛ wɔn a wɔte ntomadan mu yɛn mmoa.
21 Muganda we Yubali, ye yazaala abo abakuba ennanga n’okufuuwa omulere.
Na Yabal nuabarima din de Yubal a nʼasefoɔ yɛ mmɛnhyɛnfoɔ ne asankubɔfoɔ.
22 Zira n’azaala Tubalukayini omuweesi w’eby’ekikomo n’eby’ekyuma. Ne mwannyina wa Tubalukayini nga ye Naama.
Sila woo ɔbabarima a wɔfrɛ no Tubal-Kain. Na ɔyɛ kɔbere dwumfoɔ ne nnadeɛ ahodoɔ nyinaa atomfoɔ agya. Na Tubal-Kain wɔ nuabaa bi a ne din de Naama.
23 Lameka n’agamba bakazi be nti, “Ada ne Zira, muwulire eddoboozi lyange; mwe bakazi ba Lameka, muwulirize kye ŋŋamba; nzise omusajja olw’okunfumita, nga muvubuka, olw’okunkuba.
Ɛda bi Lamek ka kyerɛɛ ne yerenom Ada ne Sila sɛ, “Montie me, me yerenom makum aberanteɛ bi a, ɔto hyɛɛ me so, piraa me.
24 Obanga Kayini yawalanirwa emirundi musanvu, mazima Lameka wa kuwalanirwa emirundi nsanvu mu musanvu.”
Sɛ Kain so aweretɔ bɛyɛ mprɛnson a, ɛnneɛ, me Lamek, deɛ ɔbɛkum me no, nʼasotwe bɛyɛ mpɛn aduɔson nson.”
25 Awo Adamu n’amanya mukazi we, n’azaala omwana wabulenzi n’amutuuma Seezi, kubanga yayogera nti, “Katonda ampadde omwana omulala mu kifo kya Aberi, Kayini gwe yatta.”
Akyire yi, Adam de ne ho kaa ne yere Hawa. Na ɔwoo ɔbabarima bio. Na wɔtoo no edin Set kaa sɛ, “Onyankopɔn ama me ɔba foforɔ asi Habel a Kain kumm no no ananmu.”
26 Seezi n’azaala omwana owoobulenzi n’amutuuma Enosi. Mu kiseera ekyo abantu ne batandika okukoowoola erinnya lya Mukama.
Set nso woo ɔbabarima na ɔtoo no edin Enos. Saa ɛberɛ no mu na nnipa hyɛɛ aseɛ bɔɔ Awurade edin.
