Genesis 4 (TGLULB)

1Ang lalaki ay sumiping sa kanyang asawang si Eva. Siya ay nabuntis at isinilang niya si Cain. Sinabi niya, “Nagkaroon ako ng lalaki sa tulong ni Yahweh.”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.

2Pagkatapos ay isinilang niya ang lalaking kapatid nitong si Abel. Naging pastol si Abel, pero si Cain ay nagbungkal ng lupa.Later she gave birth to Cain’s brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, while Cain was a tiller of the soil.

3At nangyari na sa paglipas ng panahon dinala ni Cain ang ilan sa bunga ng lupa bilang handog kay Yahweh.So in the course of time, Cain brought some of the fruit of the soil as an offering to the LORD,

4Si Abel naman ay nagdala ng ilan sa panganay ng kanyang kawan at ilan sa taba. Tinanggap ni Yahweh si Abel at ang kanyang handog,while Abel brought the best portions of the firstborn of his flock. And the LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering,

5pero hindi niya tinanggap si Cain at ang kanyang handog. Kaya lubhang nagalit si Cain, at sumimangot siya.but He had no regard for Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his countenance fell.

6Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Cain, “Bakit ka nagagalit at bakit ka sumisimangot?“Why are you angry,” said the LORD to Cain, “and why has your countenance fallen?

7Kung gagawin mo ang tama, hindi ka ba tatanggapin? Pero kung hindi mo ginagawa ang tama, ang kasalanan ay nag-aabang sa pinto at ninanais na mamahala sa iyo, subalit dapat mo itong pamunuan.”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.”

8Kinausap ni Cain si Abel na kanyang kapatid. At nangyari na habang sila ay nasa bukid, tumindig si Cain laban sa kanyang kapatid na si Abel at pinatay niya ito.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.

9Pagkatapos sinabi ni Yahweh kay Cain, “Nasaan ang iyong kapatid na si Abel?” Sinabi niya, “Hindi ko alam. Tagapangalaga ba ako ng aking kapatid?”And the LORD said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I do not know!” he answered. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”

10Sinabi ni Yahweh, “Ano ang ginawa mo? Tumatawag sa akin ang dugo ng iyong kapatid mula sa lupa.“What have you done?” replied the LORD. “The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground.

11Ngayon isinumpa ka mula sa lupa, na nagbukas ng bunganga nito upang tanggapin ang dugo ng iyong kapatid mula sa iyong kamay.Now you are cursed and banished from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.

12Kapag ikaw ay magbubungkal ng lupa, mula ngayon hindi na nito isusuko sa iyo ang kanyang lakas. Magiging palaboy at pagala-gala ka sa mundo.”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.”

13Sinabi ni Cain kay Yahweh, “Ang parusa ko ay higit kaysa sa aking makakaya.But Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.

14Sa katunayan, itinaboy mo ako sa araw na ito mula sa lupang ito, at ako ay itatago mula sa iyong mukha. Magiging palaboy ako at pagala-gala sa mundo, at kung sinuman ang makasusumpong sa akin ay papatayin ako.”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.”

15Sinabi ni Yahweh sa kanya, “Kung sinuman ang papatay kay Cain, makapitong beses siyang gagantihan.” Kaya nilagyan ni Yahweh ng palatandaan si Cain upang sinumang makasumpong sa kanya, hindi siya lulusubin ng taong iyon.“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.

16Kaya umalis si Cain mula sa presensya ni Yahweh at nanirahan sa lupain ng Nod, sa silangan ng Eden.So Cain went out from the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden.

17Sinipingan ni Cain ang kanyang asawa at nabuntis ito. Isinilang niya si Enoc. Nagtatag siya ng isang lungsod at pinangalanan niya ito sunod sa kanyang anak na si Enoc.And Cain had relations with his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch. Then Cain built a city and named it after his son Enoch.

18Kay Enoc isinilang si Irad. Si Irad ang naging ama ni Mehujael. Si Mehujael ang naging ama ni Metusael. Si Metusael ang naging ama ni Lamec.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.

19Si Lamec ay kumuha ng dalawang asawa para sa kanyang sarili: ang pangalan ng isa ay si Ada, at ang pangalan ng isa pa ay si Zilla.And Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah.

20Isinilang ni Ada si Jabal. Siya ay ama ng lahat ng nakatira sa mga tolda na may mga alagang hayop.Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and raise livestock.

21Ang pangalan ng kanyang kapatid na lalaki ay Jubal. Siya ang ama ng lahat ng mga manunugtog ng alpa at plauta.And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play the harp and flute.

22Si Zilla naman, naging anak niya si Tubal Cain, ang nagpapanday ng mga kagamitang tanso at bakal. Ang babaeng kapatid ni Tubal Cain ay si Naama.And Zillah gave birth to Tubal-cain, a forger of every implement of bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.

23Sinabi ni Lamec sa kanyang dalawang asawa, “Ada at Zilla dinggin ninyo ang aking tinig; kayong mga asawa ni Lamec, makinig kayo sa sasabihin ko. Nakapatay ako ng isang tao dahil sinugatan ako, isang binata dahil sa pananakit sa akin.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.

24Kung ipaghihiganti si Cain ng makapitong ulit, sa gayon si Lamec ay ipaghihiganti ng pitumpu't-pitong ulit.”If Cain is avenged sevenfold, then Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”

25Si Adan ay muling sumiping sa kanyang asawa, at siya ay nagkaanak ng isa pang anak na lalaki. Tinawag niya itong Set at sinabing, “Binigyan muli ako ng Diyos ng anak na lalaki kapalit ni Abel, dahil pinatay siya ni Cain.”And Adam again had relations with his wife, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, “God has granted me another seed in place of Abel, since Cain killed him.”

26Si Set ay nagkaroon ng anak na lalaki at tinawag niya itong Enos. Sa panahong iyon ang mga tao ay nagsimulang tumawag sa pangalan ni Yahweh.And to Seth also a son was born, and he called him Enosh. At that time men began to call upon the name of the LORD.
