1 Adamu margu nda nga wando Hawa. A te gunde mo ka Kaynu hay. A ne: «Rabbi gaakasinay do no ay du alboro!»
1And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.
2 A hay koyne, a kayno Habila. Habila te hawji, amma Kaynu te alfari.
2And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
3 Alwaati fo kaa ka to kaŋ Kaynu kande fari albarka ka sarga Rabbi se.
3And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
4 Habila mo na alman hay-jine naasoyaŋ wi ka sarga. Rabbi mo na Habila nda nga sarga kulu guna k'i ta,
4And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:
5 amma a mana Kaynu nda nga sarga ta. Kala Kaynu futu gumo-gumo, hal a na mo-kuura haw.
5But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
6 Rabbi ne Kaynu se: «Ifo se no ni futu? Ifo se mo no ni na mo-kuura haw?
6And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
7 Da ni na ihanno te, manti ay ga yadda? Da mo ni na hari laalo te, zunubi go ga gum fu me gaa. A anniya kulu mo ga ye ni do, amma ma te a se jine boro.»
7If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
8 Alwaato din Kaynu salaŋ nga kayne Habila se, amma kaŋ i go saajo ra, Kaynu kaŋ Habila boŋ k'a wi.
8And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
9 Rabbi ne Kaynu se: «Man gaa ni kayne Habila?» A ne: «Ay si bay. Wala ay wo ay nya-izo batuko no?»
9And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?
10 Rabbi ne: «Ifo no ni te wo? Ni kayne kuro jinde goono ga fun laabo ra ka hẽ ay gaa.
10And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.
11 Sohõ binde ni ga laali laabo ra kaŋ na nga me feeri ka ni kayne kuro ta ni kambe ra.
11And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand;
12 Da ni n'a far, a si ni no nga albarka koyne. Ni ga dira ka windi a boŋ nangu kulu yaamo.»
12When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.
13 Kaynu ne Rabbi se: «Ay alhakko bisa ay hina.
13And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14 Guna, ni g'ay gaaray k'ay kaa ne laabo ra, ay ga daray ni se mo. Ay ga dira ka windi yaamo ndunnya boŋ. Boro kulu kaŋ di ay mo g'ay wi.»
14Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
15 Rabbi ne a se: «Boro kulu kaŋ na Kaynu wi, ay ga bana bora gaa sorro iyye.» Kala Rabbi na seeda fo daŋ Kaynu gaa, zama boro kaŋ di a ma s'a wi se.
15And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
16 Woodin banda Kaynu dira ka mooru Irikoy jine. A koy ka goro laabu fo ra kaŋ se i ga ne Nodu, a go Eden se wayna funay haray.
16And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.
17 Kaynu margu nda nga wando. A te gunde ka Hanoku hay. Kaynu na kwaara fo sinji ka nga izo maa daŋ a gaa, Hanoku.
17And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.
18 Hanoku na Iradu hay, Iradu mo na Metusayel hay, Metusayel mo na Lameku hay.
18And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech.
19 Lameku na wande hinka hiiji, afo maa Ada, afa mo maa Zilla.
19And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
20 Ada no ka Yabal hay. Nga no ga ti kuuru fu ra gorokoy kulu se baaba, kaŋ yaŋ gonda alman.
20And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle.
21 A kayno maa ga ti Yubal. Nga no ga ti moolo nda seese karkoy kulu baaba.
21And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ.
22 Zilla mo na Tubal-Kaynu hay. Nga no ga guuru-say da guuru-bi jinayey dan. Tubal-Kaynu waymo maa Naama.
22And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructer of every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah.
23 Lameku ne nga wandey se: «Ada da Zilla, araŋ ma hangan ay se. Lameku wandey, araŋ ma hangan ay se. Ay na alboro fo wi, zama a n'ay maray. Ay na arwasu fo wi, zama a n'ay kar se.
23And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
24 I ga bana Kaynu se sorro iyye. Lameku mo, i ga bana a se sorro wayye cindi iyye.»
24If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
25 Adamu margu nda nga wando koyne. A na ize fo hay, a n'a maa daŋ Sita. Zama a ne: «Irikoy n'ay no ize fo Habila kaŋ Kaynu wi nango ra.»
25And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
26 Sita mo du ize kaŋ maa Enosu. Waato din no borey sintin ka Rabbi maa ce.
26And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.
