Genesisy 4
1 Nandrèndreke i Haova, vali’e t’i Dame, le nivesatse naho nisamake i Kàine vaho nanao ty hoe: Nahazoako lahilahy t’Iehovà.
And Adam had relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain. “With the help of the LORD I have brought forth a man,” she said.
2 Nisamake indraike re, le i Hèbele zai’e. Nimpihare añondry t’i Hèbele le nimpiava tane t’i Kàine.
Later she gave birth to Cain’s brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, while Cain was a tiller of the soil.
3 Ie te indraike, nibanabana ty lengom-boñe’ i taney am’ Iehovà t’i Kàine,
So in the course of time, Cain brought some of the fruit of the soil as an offering to the LORD,
4 le ninday ty valohan’ ana’ o hare’eo naho ty sabora’e t’i Hèbele. Aa le nitoliha’ Iehovà t’i Hèbele naho i banabana’ey,
while Abel brought the best portions of the firstborn of his flock. And the LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering,
5 fe tsy hinao’e t’i Kàine naho i enga’ey. Niforoforo ami’ty habose’e amy zao t’i Kàine vaho nilonjom-bintañe
but He had no regard for Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his countenance fell.
6 Inoñe ty iviñera’o hoe t’Iehovà amy Kàine vaho ino ty mahalonjets’ azo?
“Why are you angry,” said the LORD to Cain, “and why has your countenance fallen?
7 Tsy hiampokòfañe hao irehe naho toloñe’o ty hiti’e? Aa naho tsy soa ty anoe’o le mangonònoke anjili-dalañe ao ty hakeo milelalela te hahazo azo, f’ie feheo.
If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you refuse to do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires you, but you must master it.”
8 Nifanaontsy amy Hèbele rahalahi’e t’i Kàine, aa ie nimb’an-teteke mb’ eo, niambotraha’ i Kàine t’i Hèbele naho nañohofa’e loza.
Then Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let us go out to the field.” And while they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel and killed him.
9 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà amy Kàine, Aia t’i Hèbele rahalahi’o? Tsy fantako, hoe re, mpiambeñ’ an-drahalahiko hao iraho?
And the LORD said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I do not know!” he answered. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
10 Hoe re: Ino o nanoe’oo? Inao! mitoreo amako boak’ an-tane ao ty feon-dion-drahalahi’o;
“What have you done?” replied the LORD. “The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground.
11 le fa nafà’ i taney irehe henane zao, ie nanoka-bava handrambe an-taña’o i lion-drahalahi’oy.
Now you are cursed and banished from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
12 Aa ie miava tane henane zao le tsy hafoe’e ama’o ty haozara’e; ie ho mpirererere naho mpitralantralañe an-tane atoy.
When you till the ground, it will no longer yield its produce to you. You will be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth.”
13 Hoe t’i Kàine am’ Iehovà, Tsy leoko babeñe o fandilovañe ahio;
But Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14 anindroany irehe nanao soik’ ahy amo tarehe’ ty tane toio, naho hampietaheñe amy lahara’oy iraho, le ho mpiriorio naho mpirererere an-tane atoy, vaho songa hañoho-doza amako ze mifanojeha amako.
Behold, this day You have driven me from the face of the earth, and from Your face I will be hidden; I will be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.”
15 Le hoe t’Iehovà ama’e, Aiy! ho valeñe im-pito ze mamono i Kàine; vaho namiloñe i Kàine t’i Andrianañahare tsy ho vonoe’ ze hifanalaka ama’e.
“Not so!” replied the LORD. “If anyone slays Cain, then Cain will be avenged sevenfold.” And the LORD placed a mark on Cain, so that no one who found him would kill him.
16 Aa le nienga boak’ añatrefa’ Iehovà t’i Kàine, noly an-tane Rererere, atiñana’ i Edene añe.
So Cain went out from the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17 Nifohi’ i Kàine ty vali’e, le niareñe, nisamake i Kanòke; ie nañoren-drova vaho nitokave’e ami’ty añara’ i Kanoke ana’e.
And Cain had relations with his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch. Then Cain built a city and named it after his son Enoch.
18 Nisamake Irade t’i Kanoke; le nisamak’ i Mehojaèle t’Irade le nisamak’ i Metosaele t’i Mehojaèle vaho nisamake i Lemeke t’i Metosaele.
Now to Enoch was born Irad, and Irad was the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael was the father of Methusael, and Methusael was the father of Lamech.
19 Nampirafe roe t’i Lemeke; le natao ty hoe Adae ty raike naho i Zilae ty raike.
And Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah.
20 Nisamake Iabale t’i Adae; ie ty raem-pimoneñe an-kibohotse naho mpihare.
Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and raise livestock.
21 Natao Iobale ty rahalahi’e, ie ty rae’ o mpititike kararàke naho solio.
And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play the harp and flute.
22 Nisamake i Tobale-kaine t’i Zilae, ie ty nitsene ze hene haraotse torisìke naho viñe. I Naamae ty rahavave’ i Tobale-kaine.
And Zillah gave birth to Tubal-cain, a forger of every implement of bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.
23 Hoe t’i Lemek’ amo vali’eo: Tsanoño ty feoko ry Adae naho Zilae; Ry vali’ i Lemekeo: mitsendreña o entakoo: Vinonoko t’indaty nandratse ahy, naho ty ajalahy nandafa ahiko.
Then Lamech said to his wives: “Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; wives of Lamech, listen to my speech. For I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.
24 Aa naho i Kàine ro valeañe im-pito, Le toe impitompolo fito amby ka t’i Lemeke.
If Cain is avenged sevenfold, then Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”
25 Nifohi’ i Dame indraike i vali’ey, le nisamak’ ana-dahy vaho natao’e Sete ty añara’e, fa hoe i rakembay: Fa nanendre anake ho ahy t’i Andrianañahare handimbe i Hèbele vinono’ i Kàine.
And Adam again had relations with his wife, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, “God has granted me another seed in place of Abel, since Cain killed him.”
26 Nahatoly anake ka t’i Sete, le natao’e Enose ty añara’e. Nifototse amy zay te nikanjy ty tahina’ Iehovà ondatio. izay ty takelam-piantoño’ i Dame.
And to Seth also a son was born, and he called him Enosh. At that time men began to call upon the name of the LORD.
