¹Zvino Adhamu wakaziva Evha mukadzi wake; ndokutora mimba, akabereka Kaini, akati: Ndawana munhu kubva kuna Jehovha.

¹Ninkiina naagtiisii Xaawa ahayd buu u tegey; wayna uuraysatay, oo Qaabiil bay dhashay, oo waxay tidhi, Wiil baan ku helay Rabbiga caawimaaddiisa.

²Zvino akaberekazve munin'ina wake Abhero. Uye Abhero waiva mufudzi wemakwai, Kaini waiva murimi wevhu.

²Dabadeedna waxay dhashay walaalkiis Haabiil. Haabiilna wuxuu ahaa adhijir, laakiin Qaabiil wuxuu ahaa beerfale.

³Zvino pakupfuura kwenguva, zvakaitika kuti Kaini wakauya nezvibereko zvevhu, chive chipo kuna Jehovha.

³Maalmo dabadeed waxay noqotay in Qaabiil qurbaan ahaan Rabbiga ugu keenay midhihii dhulka.

⁴NaAbherowo akauisa zvemakwayana ake ematangwe nezvakakora zvawo. Je­hovha ndokugamuchira Abhero nechipi­riso chake;

⁴Haabiilna wuxuu wax uga keenay curadyadii adhigiisa iyo baruurtoodiiba. Rabbiguna wuu eegay Haabiil iyo qurbaankiisii;

⁵asi kuna Kaini nekuchipiriso chake haana kugamuchira. Zvino Kaini waka­tsamwa kwazvo, chiso chake chikau­nyana.

⁵laakiinse Qaabiil iyo qurbaankiisii Rabbigu ma uu eegin. Qaabiilna aad buu u cadhooday, wejigiisiina wuu madoobaaday.

⁶Zvino Jehovha akati kuna Kaini, Watsamwirei? Chiso chako chakau­nyana nei?

⁶Oo Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi Qaabiil, Maxaad u cadhoonaysaa? Maxaase wejigaagu u madoobaaday?

⁷Kana uchiita zvakanaka, haugamuchiriki here pachiso chako? Kana usingaiti zvakanaka, zvivi zvinokuhwa­ndira pamusuwo; nechishuwo chake chiri kwauri asi iwe uchatonga.

⁷Haddaad wax wanaagsan samaysid, sow laguma aqbaleen? Haddaadan wax wanaagsan samaynse, dembi illinkuu kuugu gabbanayaa; doonistiisuna aday noqon doontaa, adiguna waa inaad xukuntid isaga.

⁸Zvino Kaini wakataura nemunu­n'una wake Abhero; zvino zvakaitika vari kusango kuti Kaini wakamukira Abhero munin'ina wake, akamuuraya.

⁸Qaabiilna wuxuu ku yidhi walaalkiis Haabiil, Ina keen, aynu duurka tagnee. Waxaana dhacday, markii ay duurka joogeen, in Qaabiil walaalkiis Haabiil ku kacay oo dilay isagii.

⁹Zvino Jehovha wakati kuna Kaini: Ari kupi Abhero munin'ina wako? Iye ndokuti: Handizivi, ndini muchengeti wemunin'ina wangu here?

⁹Rabbiguna wuxuu Qaabiil ku yidhi, Walaalkaa Haabiil meeh? Kolkaasuu yidhi, Ma aqaan: ma anigaa ah walaalkay ilaaliyihiisa?

¹⁰Zvino wkati: Waitei? Inzwi reropa re­munin'ina wako rinodaidzira kwandiri richibva pasi.

¹⁰Kolkaasaa Ilaah ku yidhi, Maxaad samaysay? Codkii dhiiggii walaalkaa ayaa dhulka iiga dhawaaqayaye.

¹¹Zvino wapiwa rushambwa pa­nyika, iyo yakashamisa muromo wayo kugamuchira ropa remunin'ina wako pa­ruoko rwako;

¹¹Oo haatan waad ka habaaran tahay dhulkii afkiisa u kala qaaday si uu dhiiggii walaalkaa gacantaada uga helo.

¹²kana uchirima ivhu, ha­ringakupi simba raro; uchava mutizi nemudzungairi panyika.

¹²Kolkii aad dhulka beeratid, wax badan kuuma dhali doono. Waxaad dhulka ku noqon doontaa mid carcarara oo warwareega.

¹³Zvino Kaini wakati kuna Jehovha: Kurangwa kwangu kukuru kupfuura kwandingatakura,.

¹³Qaabiilna wuxuu Rabbiga ku yidhi, Taqsiirtaydu waa ka sii badan tahay wax aan qaadi karo.

¹⁴Tarirai, mandidzinga nhasi pachiso chenyika ino, uye ndichavanziwa pamberi pechiso chenyu; ndichava mutizi nemudzungairi panyika; uye zvichaitika kuti ani naani anondiwana achandiuraya.

¹⁴Bal eeg, maanta dhulkaad iga eriday, wejigaagana waan ka qarsoonaan doonaa, waxaanan dhulka ku noqon doonaa mid carcarara oo warwareega; waxaana dhici doonta in kii i arkaaba i dili doono.

¹⁵Zvino Jehovha wakati kwaari: Naizvozvo ani naani anouraya Kaini achatsiviwa kanomwe. Jehovha ndokuisa mucherechedzo pana Kaini, zvimwe ani nani anozomuwana angamuuraya.

¹⁵Oo Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Sidaas daraaddeed ku alla kii dila Qaabiil, waxaa looga aargudan doonaa toddoba labanlaab. Rabbiguna calaamad buu u sameeyey Qaabiil, si aanu ku alla kii arkaaba u dilin.

¹⁶Zvino Kaini wakabva pamberi paJehovha, ndokunogara panyika yeNodhi, kumabvazuva kweEdheni.

¹⁶Qaabiilna Rabbiga hortiisuu ka tegey, oo wuxuu degay dalkii la odhan jiray Nood, oo xagga bari oo Ceeden ku yiil.

¹⁷Zvino Kaini wakaziva mukadzi wake, akatora mimba, akabereka Enoki; ndokuvaka guta, akatumidza guta zita remwanako­mana wake Enoki.

¹⁷Qaabiilna naagtiisuu u tegey; wayna uuraysatay, oo waxay dhashay Enoog. Wuxuuna dhisay magaalo, oo magaaladiina wuxuu ku magacaabay magicii wiilkiisii Enoog.

¹⁸Enoki akabereke­rwa Iradhi; naIradhi akabereka Mehujaeri; naMehujaeri akabereka Metushaeri; naMetu­shaeri akabereka Rameki;

¹⁸Enoogna waxaa u dhashay Ciiraad, Ciiraadna wuxuu dhalay Mexuuya'el, Mexuuya'elna wuxuu dhalay Metuusha'el, Metuusha'elna wuxuu dhalay Lameg.

¹⁹Zvino Rameki wakazvitorera vakadzi vaviri, nezita reumwe rainzi Adha, zita romumwe rainzi Zira.

¹⁹Lamegna wuxuu guursaday laba naagood; mid magaceedu wuxuu ahaa Caadah, tan kalena magaceedu wuxuu ahaa Sillah.

²⁰Zvino Adha wakabereka Jabhari; iye waiva baba veavo vanogara mumatende vane zvi­pfuwo.

²⁰Caadahna waxay dhashay Yaabaal: isna wuxuu ahaa aabbihii kuwa teendhooyinka deggan oo xoolaha leh.

²¹Zvino zita remunin'ina wake raiva Jubhari; iye waiva baba vevose vanori­dza udimbwa nenyere.

²¹Magaca walaalkiisna wuxuu ahaa Yuubaal; isna wuxuu ahaa aabbihii kuwa kataaradda iyo biibiilaha garaaca.

²²Zirawo ndokubereka Tubharikaini, mupfuri wenhumbi dzose dzinocheka dzendarira nedare; nehanzvadzi yaTubha­rikaini waiva Naama.

²²Sillahna waxay dhashay Tuubalqayin oo ahaa mid tumi jiray alaabtii naxaasta iyo birta ahayd oo dhan; Tuubalqayin walaashiisna waxay ahayd Nacmah.

²³Zvino Rameki wakati kuvakadzi vake; Adha naZira, inzwai inzwi rangu, imwi vakadzi vaRameki, teererai nhaurwa yangu; nekuti ndauraya munhu anondikuvadza, Nejaya rinondipwanya;

²³Lamegna wuxuu naagihiisii ku yidhi: Caadah iyo Sillahay, codkayga maqla; Lameg naagihiisow, hadalkayga dhegaysta; Nin baan u dilay dhaawicid uu i dhaawacay aawadeed, Iyo nin dhallinyar dhufashadii uu wax igu dhuftay aawadeed.

²⁴Kana Kaini achitsiviwa kanomwe; Zvirokwazvo Rameki kana makumi manomwe nenomwe.

²⁴Haddii Qaabiil toddoba labanlaab looga aargudan lahaa, Runtii Lameg waa in toddoba iyo toddobaatan labanlaab looga aar gutaa.

²⁵Zvino Adhamu akazivazve mukadzi wake, akabereka mwanakomana, akamu­tumidza zita rinonzi Seti; nekuti wakati, Mwari wandipa imwe mbeu pachinzvimbo chaAbhero, zvaakaurawa naKaini.

²⁵Aadanna naagtiisii mar kale ayuu u tegey; waxayna dhashay wiil, magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Seed, iyadoo leh, Ilaah abuur kaluu ii soo dhigay Haabiil meeshiisii; waayo, Qaabiil baa dilay isagii.Seedna waxaa u dhashay wiil, magiciisiina wuxuu u bixiyey Enoos; markaasaa dadkii waxay bilaabeen inay Rabbiga ku baryaan magiciisa.

²⁶NaSeti wakaberekerwa mwanakomana, akamutumidza zita rinonzi Enosi. Ne­nguva iyo vanhu vakatanga kudana zita raJehovha.

²⁶Seedna waxaa u dhashay wiil, magiciisiina wuxuu u bixiyey Enoos; markaasaa dadkii waxay bilaabeen inay Rabbiga ku baryaan magiciisa.
