उत्पत्ति 4
1 १ मनुष्याने त्याची पत्नी हव्वा हिच्यासोबत वैवाहिक संबंध केला. ती गर्भवती झाली आणि तिने काइनाला जन्म दिला. तेव्हा ती म्हणाली, परमेश्वराच्या साहाय्याने मला पुरुषसंतान लाभले आहे.
Adam (had sex/slept) with his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to a son whom she named Cain, [which sounds like the word that means ‘produce’], because, she said, “By Yahweh’s help I have produced a son.” Some time later she gave birth to another son, and she named him Abel.
2 २ त्यानंतर तिने काइनाचा भाऊ हाबेल याला जन्म दिला. आणि हाबेल मेंढपाळ बनला, पण काइन शेतातील कामकरी झाला.
[After those boys grew up], Abel (tended/took care of) sheep and goats, and Cain became a farmer.
One day Cain harvested some of the crops he had grown and brought them to Yahweh as a gift for him,
4 ४ हाबेलानेही आपल्या कळपातील प्रथम जन्मलेल्यांतून, आणि पुष्टातून अर्पण आणले. परमेश्वराने हाबेल आणि त्याचे अर्पण स्विकारले.
and Abel took from his flock some of the first lambs that had been born [and killed them] and, as a gift, gave to Yahweh the fatty parts, [which were the best parts]. Yahweh was pleased with Abel and his offering,
5 ५ परंतु त्याने काइन आणि त्याचे अर्पण स्विकारले नाही. यामुळे काइनाला फार राग आला, आणि त्याचे तोंड उतरले.
but he was not pleased with Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his face looked dejected.
Yahweh said to Cain, “(You should not be angry!/Why are you angry?) [RHQ] (You should not scowl like that!/Why do you scowl like that?) [RHQ]
7 ७ तू जर चांगल्या गोष्टी करशील तर, मग तुझाही स्विकार केला जाणार नाही का? परंतु तू जर योग्य ते करणार नाहीस, तर पाप दाराशी टपून बसले आहे आणि त्याची तुझ्यावर ताबा मिळवण्याची इच्छा आहे, परंतु तू त्यावर नियंत्रण केले पाहिजेस.”
If you had done what was right (OR, if you do what is right) [RHQ], I would accept your offering. But if you do not do what is right, [your desire to] sin [is ready to attack you like a wild animal that] [PRS] crouches outside the doorway, [ready to spring on its victim] [MET]. [Your desire to] sin wants to control you, but you must (control/not obey) it.”
8 ८ काइन आपला भाऊ हाबेल याच्याशी बोलला, आणि असे झाले की ते शेतात असता, काइन आपला भाऊ हाबेल ह्याच्या विरूद्ध उठला व त्यास त्याने ठार मारले.
But one day, Cain said to his younger brother Abel, “Let’s go for a walk in the fields.” [So they went together]. And when they were in the countryside, suddenly Cain attacked Abel and killed him.
9 ९ परमेश्वर काइनास म्हणाला, “तुझा भाऊ हाबेल कोठे आहे?” काइनाने उत्तर दिले, “मला माहीत नाही; मी माझ्या भावाचा राखणदार आहे काय?”
[Later, even though] Yahweh [knew what Cain had done], he said to Cain, “[Do you know] where Abel, your younger brother, is?” Cain replied, “No, I do not know. (My job is not to guard my younger brother!/Am I supposed to take care of my younger brother?)” [RHQ]
Yahweh said, “You have done a terrible thing [RHQ]! So now [it is as though] your younger brother’s voice is crying to me from the ground, demanding that his death must be avenged.
11 ११ तर आता तुझ्या हातून तुझ्या भावाचे पडलेले रक्त स्विकारण्यास ज्या जमिनीने आपले तोंड उघडले आहे, तिचा तुला शाप आहे.
You have killed your younger brother, and the ground has soaked up his blood. So now I will expel you from this land and curse your efforts to produce crops.
12 १२ जेव्हा तू जमिनीची मशागत करशील तेव्हा ती आपले सत्व यापुढे तुला देणार नाही. पृथ्वीवर तू भटकत राहशील व निर्वासित होशील.”
You will till the ground to plant crops, but the ground will produce very few [HYP] crops. And you will continually wander around the earth, and not have any place to live permanently.”
Cain replied, “You are punishing me more then I can endure.
14 १४ खरोखर, तू मला या माझ्या भूमीवरून हाकलून लावले आहेस, आणि तुझ्या जवळ मला येता येणार नाही. पृथ्वीवर तू मला भटकणारा व निर्वासित केले आणि जर मी कोणाच्या हाती सापडेन तर तो मला ठार मारून टाकेल.”
You are about to expel me from the ground [that I have been cultivating], and I will no longer be able to come (into your presence/and talk with you). Furthermore, I will be continually wandering around the earth with no place to live permanently, and anyone who sees me will kill me.”
15 १५ परमेश्वर त्यास म्हणाला, “जर कोणी काइनाला ठार मारील तर त्याचा सातपट सूड घेण्यात येईल.” त्यानंतर, तो कोणाला सापडला तर त्यास कोणी जिवे मारू नये म्हणून, परमेश्वराने काइनावर एक खूण करून ठेवली.
But Yahweh said to him, “No, that will not happen. I will put a mark on you to warn anyone who sees you that [I will punish him severely if] he kills you. I will punish that person seven times as severely as I am punishing you.” Then Yahweh put a mark on Cain’s forehead.
So Cain left Yahweh and went to live in the land called Nod, [which means ‘wandering’], which was east of Eden.
17 १७ काइनाने आपल्या पत्नीस जाणिले, ती गर्भवती होऊन तिने हनोखाला जन्म दिला; काइनाने एक नगर बांधले त्याने त्या नगराला आपल्या मुलाचेच हनोख हे नाव दिले.
Some time later, Cain (had sex/slept) with his wife, and she [became pregnant and] gave birth to a son, whom she named Enoch. Then Cain started to build a city, and he named the city ‘Enoch’, the same name that his son had.
Enoch [grew up and married and] became the father of a son whom he named Irad. When Irad [grew up he] became the father of a son whom he named Mehujael. Mehujael [grew up and] became the father of a son whom he named Methuselah. Methuselah [grew up and] became the father of Lamech.
When Lamech [grew up he] married two women. The name of one was Adah and the other was Zillah.
Adah gave birth to [a son she named] Jabal.
21 २१ आणि त्याच्या भावाचे नाव युबाल होते, तो तंतुवाद्य व वायुवाद्य वाजवणाऱ्या कलावंताचा मूळपुरुष झाला.
Later, Jabal was the first person who lived in tents because he traveled from place to place to take care of livestock. His younger brother’s name was Jubal. He was the first person who made/played a (lyre/stringed instrument) and a flute.
22 २२ सिल्ला हिला तुबल-काइन झाला; तो तांब्याची व लोखंडाची कामे करणाऱ्या लोकांचा मूळपुरुष झाला. तुबल काइनास नामा नावाची बहीण होती.
[Lamech’s other wife] Zillah gave birth to a son whom she named Tubal-Cain. Later Tubal-Cain became a (blacksmith/one who made tools from bronze and iron). Tubal-Cain had a younger sister whose name was Naamah.
23 २३ लामेख आपल्या बायकांना म्हणाला, आदा आणि सिल्ला माझी वाणी ऐका; लामेखाच्या बायकांनो, मी ज्या गोष्टी बोलतो त्याकडे कान लावा; एका मनुष्याने मला जखमी केले, मी त्यास ठार मारले, एका तरुणाने मला मारले म्हणून मी त्यास ठार केले.
One day Lamech said to his two wives, “Adah and Zillah, listen carefully to what I am saying. A young man struck me and wounded me, so I killed him.
Yahweh said long ago that he would avenge and punish anyone who killed Cain seven times as much as he punished Cain [for killing his younger brother]. So if anyone [tries to] kill me, I will punish him 77 times as much [as Yahweh punished Cain].”
25 २५ आदामाने पुन्हा पत्नीस जाणिले आणि तिला पुत्र झाला. त्यांनी त्याचे नाव शेथ असे ठेवले. हव्वा म्हणाली, “देवाने हाबेलाच्या ठिकाणी मला दुसरे संतान दिले आहे, कारण काइनाने त्यास जिवे मारले.”
Adam continued to (have sex/sleep) with [EUP] his wife, and she [became pregnant and] gave birth to another son, whom she named Seth, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘given’], because, she said, “God has given me another child to take the place of Abel, since Cain killed him.”
26 २६ शेथलाही मुलगा झाला, त्याचे नाव त्याने अनोश ठेवले; त्या काळापासून लोक परमेश्वराच्या नावाने धावा करू लागले.
When Seth grew up, he became the father of a son whom he named Enosh. About that time people began to worship Yahweh [again].
