Genesis 4

DOUAI-RHEIMS	Biblija Hrvatski
1 And Adam knew Eve his wife: who conceived and brought forth Cain, saying: I have gotten a man through God.	1 Čovjek pozna svoju ženu Evu, a ona zače i rodi Kajina, pa reče: »Muško sam čedo stekla pomoću Jahve!«
2 And again she brought forth his brother Abel. And Abel was a shepherd, and Cain a husbandman.	2 Poslije rodi Abela, brata Kajinova; Abel postane stočar, a Kajin zemljoradnik.
3 And it came to pass after many days, that Cain offered, of the fruits of the earth, gifts to the Lord.	3 I jednoga dana Kajin prinese Jahvi žrtvu od zemaljskih plodova.
4 Abel also offered of the firstlings of his flock, and of their fat: and the Lord had respect to Abel, and to his offerings.	4 A prinese i Abel od prvine svoje stoke, sve po izbor pretilinu. Jahve milostivo pogleda na Abela i njegovu žrtvu,
5 But to Cain and his offerings he had no respect: and Cain was exceedingly angry, and his countenance fell.	5 a na Kajina i žrtvu njegovu ni pogleda ne svrati. Stoga se Kajin veoma razljuti i lice mu se namrgodi.
6 And the Lord said to him: Why art thou angry? and why is thy countenance fallen?	6 I Jahve reče Kajinu: »Zašto si ljut? Zašto ti je lice namrgođeno?
7 If thou do well, shalt thou not receive? but if ill, shall not sin forthwith be present at the door? but the lust thereof shall be under thee, and thou shalt have dominion over it.	7 Jer ako pravo radiš, vedrinom odsijevaš. A ne radiš li pravo, grijeh ti je kao zvijer na pragu što na te vreba; još mu se možeš oduprijeti.«
8 And Cain said to Abel his brother: Let us go forth abroad. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and slew him.	8 Kajin pak reče svome bratu Abelu: »Hajdemo van!« I našavši se na polju, Kajin skoči na brata Abela te ga ubi.
9 And the Lord said to Cain: Where is thy brother Abel? And he answered, I know not: am I my brother's keeper?	9 Potom Jahve zapita Kajina: »Gdje ti je brat Abel?« »Ne znam«, odgovori. »Zar sam ja čuvar brata svoga?«
10 And he said to him: What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth to me from the earth.	10 Jahve nastavi: »Što si učinio? Slušaj! Krv brata tvoga iz zemlje k meni viče.
11 Now, therefore, cursed shalt thou be upon the earth, which hath opened her mouth and received the blood of thy brother at thy hand,	11 Stoga budi proklet na zemlji koja je rastvorila usta da proguta s ruke tvoje krv brata tvoga!
12 When thou shalt till it, it shall not yield to thee its fruit: a fugitive and vagabond shalt thou be upon the earth.	12 Obrađivat ćeš zemlju, ali ti više neće davati svoga roda. Vječni ćeš skitalica na zemlji biti!«
13 And Cain said to the Lord: My iniquity is greater than that I may deserve pardon.	13 A Kajin reče Jahvi: »Kazna je moja odviše teška da se snosi.
14 Behold thou dost cast me out this day from the face of the earth, and I shall be hidden from thy face, and I shall be a vagabond and a fugitive on the earth: everyone, therefore, that findeth me, shall kill me.	14 Evo me tjeraš danas s plodnoga tla; moram se skrivati od tvoga lica i biti vječni lutalac na zemlji – tko me god nađe, može me ubiti.«
15 And the Lord said to him: No, it shall not be so: but whosoever shall kill Cain, shall be punished sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, that whosoever found him should not kill him.	15 A Jahve mu reče: »Ne! Nego tko ubije Kajina, sedmerostruka osveta na njemu će se izvršiti!« I Jahve stavi znak na Kajina, da ga tko, našavši ga, ne ubije.
16 And Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and dwelt as a fugitive on the earth, at the east side of Eden.	16 Kajin ode ispred lica Jahvina u zemlju Nod, istočno od Edena, i ondje se nastani.
17 And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and brought forth Henoch: and he built a city, and called the name thereof by the name of his son Henoch.	17 Kajin pozna svoju ženu te ona zače i rodi Henoka. Podigao je grad i grad prozvao imenom svoga sina – Henok.
18 And Henoch begot Irad, and Irad begot Maviael, and Maviael begot Mathusael, and Mathusael begot Lamech:	18 Henoku se rodio Irad, a od Irada potekao Mehujael; od Mehujaela poteče Metušael, od Metušaela Lamek.
19 Who took two wives: the name of the one was Ada, and the name of the other was Sella.	19 Lamek uzme dvije žene. Jedna se zvala Ada, a druga Sila.
20 And Ada brought forth Jabel: who was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of herdsmen.	20 Ada rodi Jabala, koji je postao praocem onih što pod šatorima žive sa stokom.
21 And his brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of them that play upon the harp and the organs.	21 Bratu mu bijaše ime Jubal. On je praotac svih koji sviraju na liru i sviralu.
22 Sella also brought forth Tubalcain, who was a hammerer and artificer in every work of brass and iron. And the sister of Tubalcain was Noema.	22 Sila rodi Tubal-Kajina, praoca onih koji kuju bakar i željezo. Tubal-Kajinovoj sestri bijaše ime Naama.
23 And Lamech said to his wives Ada and Sell: Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, hearken to my speech: for I have slain a man to the wounding of myself, and a stripling to my own bruising.	23 Lamek prozbori svojim ženama: »Ada i Sila, glas moj poslušajte! Žene Lamekove, čujte mi besjedu: Čovjeka sam ubio jer me ranio i dijete jer me udarilo.
24 Sevenfold vengeance shall be taken for Cain: but for Lamech seventy times sevenfold.	24 Ako će Kajin biti osvećen sedmerostruko, Lamek će sedamdeset i sedam puta!«
25 Adam also knew his wife again: and she brought forth a son, and called his name Seth, saying: God hath given me another seed, for Abel whom Cain slew.	25 Adam pozna svoju ženu te ona rodi sina i nadjenu mu ime Šet. Reče ona: »Bog mi dade drugo dijete mjesto Abela, koga ubi Kajin.«
26 But to Seth also was born a son, whom he called Enos; this man began to call upon the name of the Lord.	26 Šetu se rodi sin, komu on nadjenu ime Enoš. Tada se počelo zazivati ime Jahvino.
