< Genesis 4 >
1 At nakilala ng lalake si Eva na kaniyang asawa; at siya'y naglihi at ipinanganak si Cain, at sinabi, Nagkaanak ako ng lalake sa tulong ng Panginoon.
The man knew Eve his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, “I have gotten a man with the LORD’s help.”
2 At sa muli ay ipinanganak ang kaniyang kapatid na si Abel. At si Abel ay tagapagalaga ng mga tupa; datapuwa't si Cain ay mangbubukid ng lupa.
Again she gave birth, to Cain’s brother Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
3 At nangyari nang lumalakad ang panahon ay nagdala si Cain ng isang handog na mga bunga ng lupa sa Panginoon.
As time passed, Cain brought an offering to the LORD from the fruit of the ground.
4 At nagdala rin naman si Abel ng mga panganay ng kaniyang kawan at ng mga taba ng mga yaon. At nilingap ng Panginoon si Abel at ang kaniyang handog:
Abel also brought some of the firstborn of his flock and of its fat. The LORD respected Abel and his offering,
5 Datapuwa't hindi nilingap si Cain at ang kaniyang handog. At naginit na mainam si Cain, at namanglaw ang kaniyang mukha.
but he did not respect Cain and his offering. Cain was very angry, and the expression on his face fell.
6 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Cain, Bakit ka naginit? at bakit namanglaw ang iyong mukha?
The LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why has the expression of your face fallen?
7 Kung ikaw ay gumawa ng mabuti, di ba ikaw mamarapatin? at kung hindi ka gumawa ng mabuti, ay nahahandusay ang kasalanan sa pintuan: at sa iyo'y pahihinuhod ang kaniyang nasa, at ikaw ang papanginoonin niya.
If you do well, will not it be lifted up? If you do not do well, sin crouches at the door. Its desire is for you, but you are to rule over it.”
8 At yao'y sinabi ni Cain sa kaniyang kapatid na kay Abel. At nangyari, nang sila'y nasa parang ay nagtindig si Cain laban kay Abel na kaniyang kapatid, at siya'y kaniyang pinatay.
Cain said to Abel, his brother, “Let’s go into the field.” While they were in the field, Cain rose up against Abel, his brother, and killed him.
9 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Cain, Saan naroon si Abel na iyong kapatid? At sinabi niya, Aywan ko: ako ba'y tagapagbantay sa aking kapatid?
The LORD said to Cain, “Where is Abel, your brother?” He said, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s keeper?”
10 At sinabi niya, Anong iyong ginawa? ang tinig ng dugo ng iyong kapatid ay dumadaing sa akin mula sa lupa.
The LORD said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries to me from the ground.
11 At ngayo'y sinumpa ka sa lupa na siyang nagbuka ng bibig na tumanggap sa iyong kamay ng dugo ng iyong kapatid;
Now you are cursed because of the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
12 Pagbubukid mo ng lupa, ay di na ibibigay mula ngayon sa iyo ang kaniyang lakas; ikaw ay magiging palaboy at hampas-lupa sa lupa.
From now on, when you till the ground, it will not yield its strength to you. You will be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth.”
13 At sinabi ni Cain sa Panginoon, Ang aking kaparusahan ay higit kaysa mababata ko.
Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14 Narito, ako'y iyong itinataboy ngayon mula sa ibabaw ng lupa, at sa iyong harapan ay magtatago ako; at ako'y magiging palaboy at hampaslupa; at mangyayari, na sinomang makasumpong sa akin ay papatayin ako.
Behold, you have driven me out today from the surface of the ground. I will be hidden from your face, and I will be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth. Whoever finds me will kill me.”
15 At sinabi sa kaniya ng Panginoon, Dahil dito'y sinomang pumatay kay Cain ay makapitong gagantihan. At nilagyan ng Panginoon ng isang tanda si Cain, baka siya'y sugatan ng sinomang makakasumpong sa kaniya.
The LORD said to him, “Therefore whoever slays Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold.” The LORD appointed a sign for Cain, so that anyone finding him would not strike him.
16 At umalis si Cain sa harapan ng Panginoon at tumahan sa lupain ng Nod, sa silanganan ng Eden.
Cain left the LORD’s presence, and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17 At nakilala ni Cain ang kaniyang asawa, at siya'y naglihi at ipinanganak si Enoc: at siya'y nagtayo ng isang bayan at tinawag ang bayan ayon sa pangalan ng kaniyang anak, Enoc.
Cain knew his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Enoch. He built a city, and named the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
18 At naging anak ni Enoc si Irad; at naging anak ni Irad si Mehujael; at naging anak ni Mehujael si Metusael; at naging anak ni Metusael si Lamec.
Irad was born to Enoch. Irad became the father of Mehujael. Mehujael became the father of Methushael. Methushael became the father of Lamech.
19 At si Lamec ay nagasawa ng dalawa; ang pangalan ng isa'y Ada, at ang pangalan ng ikalawa ay Zilla.
Lamech took two wives: the name of the first one was Adah, and the name of the second one was Zillah.
20 At naging anak ni Ada si Jabal: na siyang naging magulang ng nangagsisitahan sa mga tolda at may mga hayop.
Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.
21 At ang pangalan ng kaniyang kapatid ay Jubal: na siyang naging magulang ng lahat na tumutugtog ng alpa at ng flauta.
His brother’s name was Jubal, who was the father of all who handle the harp and pipe.
22 At tungkol kay Zilla, ay ipinanganak naman niya si Tubal-Cain na mamamanday ng lahat na kagamitang patalim na tanso at bakal: at ang kapatid na babae ni Tubal-Cain ay si Naama.
Zillah also gave birth to Tubal Cain, the forger of every cutting instrument of bronze and iron. Tubal Cain’s sister was Naamah.
23 At sinabi ni Lamec sa kaniyang mga asawa: Ada at Zilla pakinggan ninyo ang aking tinig: Kayong mga asawa ni Lamec ay makinig ng aking salaysay: Sapagka't pumatay ako ng isang tao, dahil sa ako'y sinugatan, At ng isang binata, dahil sa ako'y hinampas.
Lamech said to his wives, “Adah and Zillah, hear my voice. You wives of Lamech, listen to my speech, for I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for bruising me.
24 Kung makapitong gagantihan si Cain, tunay na si Lamec ay makapitong pung pito.
If Cain will be avenged seven times, truly Lamech seventy-seven times.”
25 At nakilalang muli ni Adam ang kaniyang asawa; at nanganak ng isang lalake, at tinawag ang kaniyang pangalan na Set; sapagka't aniya'y binigyan ako ng Dios ng ibang anak na kahalili ni Abel; sapagka't siya'y pinatay ni Cain.
Adam knew his wife again. She gave birth to a son, and named him Seth, saying, “for God has given me another child instead of Abel, for Cain killed him.”
26 At nagkaanak naman si Set ng isang lalake; at tinawag ang kaniyang pangalan na Enos. Noon ay pinasimulan ng mga tao ang pagtawag sa pangalan ng Panginoon.
A son was also born to Seth, and he named him Enosh. At that time men began to call on the LORD’s name.
