< 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.
Now, the man, having come to know Eve his wife, —she conceived and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a Man, even Yahweh!
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.
And she went on to bear his brother, Abel, —and Abel became a feeder of sheep, whereas Cain, was a tiller of the round.
3 At nangyari nang lumalakad ang panahon ay nagdala si Cain ng isang handog na mga bunga ng lupa sa Panginoon.
So it came to pass, after certain days, that Cain brought in of the fruit of the ground, a present to Yahweh:
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, even, he, brought in of the firstlings of his sheep, and of their fat, and Yahweh approved of Abel and of his present;
5 Datapuwa't hindi nilingap si Cain at ang kaniyang handog. At naginit na mainam si Cain, at namanglaw ang kaniyang mukha.
but of Cain and his present, he approved not, —and it angered Cain greatly, and his countenance fell.
6 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Cain, Bakit ka naginit? at bakit namanglaw ang iyong mukha?
So then Yahweh said unto Cain, —Wherefore hath it angered thee, and wherefore hath thy countenance 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.
Shall it not, if thou do right, be lifted up? But if thou do not right, at the entrance a sin-bearer is lying, —Unto thee, moreover, shall be his longing, though, thou, rule over him.
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.
And Cain said unto Abel his brother Let us go into the field And it came to pass when they were in the field that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew 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?
Then said Yahweh unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said I know not, the keeper of my brother, am, I?
10 At sinabi niya, Anong iyong ginawa? ang tinig ng dugo ng iyong kapatid ay dumadaing sa akin mula sa lupa.
And he said, What hast thou done? With a voice, the shed-blood of thy brother is crying out 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 therefore, accursed, art thou, —from the ground which hath opened her mouth, to receive the shed-blood of thy brother at thy 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.
Though thou till the ground, it shall not go on to give its vigour to thee. A wanderer and a fugitive, shalt thou be in the earth.
13 At sinabi ni Cain sa Panginoon, Ang aking kaparusahan ay higit kaysa mababata ko.
And Cain said unto Yahweh—Greater is my punishment 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.
Lo! thou has driven me out, this day, from off the face of the ground And from thy face, shall I be hid, So shall I become a wanderer and a fugitive in the earth. And it shall come to pass, whosoever findeth me, will slay 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.
And Yahweh said to him—Not so, whosoever slayeth Cain seven—fold, shall it be avenged. So Yahweh set, for Cain, a sign, that none finding him should smite him.
16 At umalis si Cain sa harapan ng Panginoon at tumahan sa lupain ng Nod, sa silanganan ng Eden.
So Cain went forth from the presence of Yahweh, —and dwelt in the land of Nod, eastward 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.
And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and bare Enoch, —Now it happened that he was building a city, so he called the name of 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.
And there was born to Enoch Irad, and, Irad, begat Mehujael, —and Mehujael, begat Methusael, —and Methusael, begat Lamech.
19 At si Lamec ay nagasawa ng dalawa; ang pangalan ng isa'y Ada, at ang pangalan ng ikalawa ay Zilla.
And Lamech took to himself two wives, —the name of the one, was Adah, and, the name of the second Zillah.
20 At naging anak ni Ada si Jabal: na siyang naging magulang ng nangagsisitahan sa mga tolda at may mga hayop.
And Adah bare Jabal, —he, was father of such as dwell in tents, and have cattle;
21 At ang pangalan ng kaniyang kapatid ay Jubal: na siyang naging magulang ng lahat na tumutugtog ng alpa at ng flauta.
and, the name of his brother, was Jubal, —he, was father of everyone handling lyre and flute,
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.
And, as for Zillah, she also, bare Tubal-Cain, a sharpener of every cutting instrument of bronze and iron, —and, the sister of Tubal-Cain, 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.
Then said Lamech to his wives, Adah and Zillah! hear ye my voice, Ye wives of Lamech! give ear to my tale, For a man, have I slain in dealing my wounds, Yea, a youth, in smiting my blows:
24 Kung makapitong gagantihan si Cain, tunay na si Lamec ay makapitong pung pito.
If, sevenfold, be, the avenging of Cain, Then, of Lamech, seventy and seven.
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.
And Adam again knew his wife, and she bare a son, and called his name Seth, —For God hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, because Cain slew 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.
And to Seth—to him also, was born a son, and he called his name Enosh, —then, was a beginning made, to call on the name of Yahweh.
