Iv oben bi, “K'ẹkkaana ch'Ọvaar Ibinọkpaabyi ọnang-m, kaam nkk'nnwa kw'ijinọng mmaana.”BSBBSB: And Adam had relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain. “With the help of the LORD I have brought forth a man,” she said.
2. 2MFOWa Iv obiro otzima ibhọr ọmaan ọgbaanọkka kwa Ken, kw'ode Ebẹl. Iwa Ebẹl ode okkeri arukhimaan. Ken ode ọnọng kw'ọyaabh owoni.BSBBSB: Later she gave birth to Cain’s brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, while Cain was a tiller of the soil.
3. 3MFOOkwu otzuma k'ogbe mẹ, Ken otzima achiduk p'owoni kwẹ, osi ẹnanga ọnang Ọvaar Ibinọkpaabyi.BSBBSB: So in the course of time, Cain brought some of the fruit of the soil as an offering to the LORD,
4. 4MFOEbẹl ọtzọkha acheden-va p'arukhimaan pẹ p'ajibhi for, otzima osi ẹnanga. Ọvaar Ibinọkpaabyi ọdaam ettem ttara Ebẹl ọmaana ẹnanga chẹ.BSBBSB: while Abel brought the best portions of the firstborn of his flock. And the LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering,
5. 5MFOOnode Ken ọmaana ẹnanga chẹ, Ibinọkpaabyi ettem kẹ kẹdaami. Mẹ wọ osi, Ken ettem epyibh-ẹ, on-obhor itzitzikha.BSBBSB: but He had no regard for Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his countenance fell.
6. 6MFOỌvaar Ibinọkpaabyi ọbọbh Ken bi, “Ode yan kw'ettem epyibh-ọ? Osi yan kw'abhori itzitzikha?BSBBSB: “Why are you angry,” said the LORD to Cain, “and why has your countenance fallen?
7. 7MFOIdikha ira kọ akk'ejibha asa, ira kaam ettem kindaam ttar-ọ o? Yina, da ani ejibha asi, epyibha ẹm-ẹbaami bi, ẹbọkh-ọ. Kọ akhaambi, akhema chẹ.”BSBBSB: If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you refuse to do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires you, but you must master it.”
8. 8MFOWa Ken okwu ọkhaama nttọhna ttara ọgbaanọkka Ebẹl, oben-ẹ bi, “Tte moyin k'ẹtzam.” Mada abẹ awobh k'ẹtzam, Ken ottum ọgbaanọkka Ebẹl ofhu.BSBBSB: Then Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let us go out to the field.” And while they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel and killed him.
9. 9MFOMẹ wọ osi, Ọvaar Ibinọkpaabyi ọbọbh Ken bi, “Agbaanakka Ebẹl ko o?” Ken obhina bi, “Kaam kinnong, kaam wọ mminkkeri ọgbaanọkka kwaam o?”BSBBSB: And the LORD said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I do not know!” he answered. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
10. 10MFOỌvaar Ibinọkpaabyi oben bi, “Bọng odik kw'asi ma? Izi s'agbaanakka im-ibhomi iyer-m k'irek, mach'ẹmọng ch'ebhomi eror ẹkkaana.BSBBSB: “What have you done?” replied the LORD. “The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground.
11. 11MFOMẹ wọ osi, nnang-ọ ẹmma, mbiri ngwubh-ọ k'irerek s'igwong ẹmma igwo izi s'agbaanakka kw'afhu.BSBBSB: Now you are cursed and banished from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
12. 12MFOKọ ayaabh irerek, ekpo dọk kéjibh ẹnang-ọ. Kọ ẹwọr k'ibe rani kábọkha, án-ade ottettena-nọng m'ọyagbin.”BSBBSB: When you till the ground, it will no longer yield its produce to you. You will be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth.”
13. 13MFOKen oben Ọvaar Ibinọkpaabyi bi, “Ihem saam ibari iyọhng-m bi ndọhkha.BSBBSB: But Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14. 14MFOMayina akk'aam akhubha m'irerek nna, ọmaana k'itzitzikha sọ, kaam nna nnọbh ebhon, mbiri nde ottettena-nọng m'ọyagbin, ọnọng kpenamkpen kw'óre-m ófhu-m ofhu.”BSBBSB: Behold, this day You have driven me from the face of the earth, and from Your face I will be hidden; I will be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.”
15. 15MFOYina, Ọvaar Ibinọkpaabyi on-oben Ken bi, “Ọnọng kpenamkpen kw'ọfhọ-ọ, ọ́tzọkha ọmmamma kw'ọ́yọhnga kwọ, igbe izenamfa.” Mẹ wọ osi, Ọvaar Ibinọkpaabyi okhe Ken ebhora ka for, ifha ọnọng kpenamkpen kw'ọ́rẹ-ẹ oning-ẹ ófhu.BSBBSB: “Not so!” replied the LORD. “If anyone slays Cain, then Cain will be avenged sevenfold.” And the LORD placed a mark on Cain, so that no one who found him would kill him.
16. 16MFOKen obina k'itzitzikha s'Ọvaar Ibinọkpaabyi ottena, otza oruk k'irek sa Nọd, k'okhubha kw'ewuchen em-eyin k'Iden.BSBBSB: So Cain went out from the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden.

18. 18MFOWa Ẹnọk obhoni Irad. Irad obhon Mehujayẹl, Mehujayẹl obhon Metusayẹl Metusayẹl obiro obhon Lamẹk.BSBBSB: Now to Enoch was born Irad, and Irad was the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael was the father of Methusael, and Methusael was the father of Lamech.
19. 19MFOWa Lamẹk ọtzọk panọng afa; wani okpen Ada, nwonggo okpena Zila.BSBBSB: And Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah.
20. 20MFOWa Ada ọmaan Jabal, kẹ wọ iwa ode otte kw'anọng p'iwa am-aruk k'okhira, abira atzir nden.BSBBSB: Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and raise livestock.

Kaam nkk'ọnọng mfha, kw'omumum-m ọttọhk, odikkobh, kw'orim-m abẹ, kẹ wọ kwa mfhu.BSBBSB: Then Lamech said to his wives: “Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; wives of Lamech, listen to my speech. For I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.
24. 24MFOIdikha ọnọng manda wani ofhu Ken, kẹ óre ihem s'iyọhnga sa Ken igbe izenamfa, Yina, idikha ọnọng ofhu kaam Lamẹk, okhuri odikkobh kw'akaam mfhu, kẹ óre ihem s'iyọhnga s'ọnọng kw'ofhu Ken, igbe arọbh attaan obhiri chi obhiri afa.”BSBBSB: If Cain is avenged sevenfold, then Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”
