Bibbia Vulgata Clementina	Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
¹ Adam vero cognovit uxorem suam Hevam, quæ concepit et peperit Cain, dicens : Possedi hominem per Deum.	¹ Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, saying, "I have gotten a man with the help of the LORD."
² Rursumque peperit fratrem ejus Abel. Fuit autem Abel pastor ovium, et Cain agricola.	² And again, she bore his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain a tiller of the ground.
³ Factum est autem post multos dies ut offerret Cain de fructibus terræ munera Domino.	³ In the course of time Cain brought to the LORD an offering of the fruit of the ground,
⁴ Abel quoque obtulit de primogenitis gregis sui, et de adipibus eorum : et respexit Dominus ad Abel, et ad munera ejus.	⁴ and Abel brought of the firstlings of his flock and of their fat portions. And the LORD had regard for Abel and his offering,
⁵ Ad Cain vero, et ad munera illius non respexit : iratusque est Cain vehementer, et concidit vultus ejus.	⁵ but for Cain and his offering he had no regard. So Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell.
⁶ Dixitque Dominus ad eum : Quare iratus es ? et cur concidit facies tua ?	⁶ The LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry, and why has your countenance fallen?
⁷ nonne si bene egeris, recipies : sin autem male, statim in foribus peccatum aderit ? sed sub te erit appetitus ejus, et tu dominaberis illius.	⁷ If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is couching at the door; its desire is for you, but you must master it."
⁸ Dixitque Cain ad Abel fratrem suum : Egrediamur foras. Cumque essent in agro, consurrexit Cain adversus fratrem suum Abel, et interfecit eum.	⁸ Cain said to Abel his brother, "Let us go out to the field." And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and killed him.
⁹ Et ait Dominus ad Cain : Ubi est Abel frater tuus ? Qui respondit : Nescio : num custos fratris mei sum ego ?	⁹ Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?" He said, "I do not know; am I my brother's keeper?"
¹⁰ Dixitque ad eum : Quid fecisti ? vox sanguinis fratris tui clamat ad me de terra.	¹⁰ And the LORD said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the ground.
¹¹ Nunc igitur maledictus eris super terram, quæ aperuit os suum, et suscepit sanguinem fratris tui de manu tua.	¹¹ And now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.
¹² Cum operatus fueris eam, non dabit tibi fructus suos : vagus et profugus eris super terram.	¹² When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield to you its strength; you shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth."
¹³ Dixitque Cain ad Dominum : Major est iniquitas mea, quam ut veniam merear.	¹³ Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is greater than I can bear.
¹⁴ Ecce ejicis me hodie a facie terræ, et a facie tua abscondar, et ero vagus et profugus in terra : omnis igitur qui invenerit me, occidet me.	¹⁴ Behold, thou hast driven me this day away from the ground; and from thy face I shall be hidden; and I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will slay me."
¹⁵ Dixitque ei Dominus : Nequaquam ita fiet : sed omnis qui occiderit Cain, septuplum punietur. Posuitque Dominus Cain signum, ut non interficeret eum omnis qui invenisset eum.	¹⁵ Then the LORD said to him, "Not so! If any one slays Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold." And the LORD put a mark on Cain, lest any who came upon him should kill him.
¹⁶ Egressusque Cain a facie Domini, habitavit profugus in terra ad orientalem plagam Eden.	¹⁶ Then Cain went away from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
¹⁷ Cognovit autem Cain uxorem suam, quæ concepit, et peperit Henoch : et ædificavit civitatem, vocavitque nomen ejus ex nomine filii sui, Henoch.	¹⁷ Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch; and he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
¹⁸ Porro Henoch genuit Irad, et Irad genuit Maviaël, et Maviaël genuit Mathusaël, et Mathusaël genuit Lamech.	¹⁸ To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad was the father of Me-huja-el, and Me-huja-el the father of Me-thusha-el, and Me-thusha-el the father of Lamech.
¹⁹ Qui accepit duas uxores, nomen uni Ada, et nomen alteri Sella.	¹⁹ And Lamech took two wives; the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
²⁰ Genuitque Ada Jabel, qui fuit pater habitantium in tentoriis, atque pastorum.	²⁰ Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and have cattle.
²¹ Et nomen fratris ejus Jubal : ipse fuit pater canentium cithara et organo.	²¹ His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe.
²² Sella quoque genuit Tubalcain, qui fuit malleator et faber in cuncta opera æris et ferri. Soror vero Tubalcain, Noëma.	²² Zillah bore Tubal-cain; he was the forger of all instruments of bronze and iron. The sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.
²³ Dixitque Lamech uxoribus suis Adæ et Sellæ : Audite vocem meam, uxores Lamech ; auscultate sermonem meum : quoniam occidi virum in vulnus meum, et adolescentulum in livorem meum.	²³ Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; you wives of Lamech, hearken to what I say: I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.
²⁴ Septuplum ultio dabitur de Cain : de Lamech vero septuagies septies.	²⁴ If Cain is avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy-sevenfold."
²⁵ Cognovit quoque adhuc Adam uxorem suam : et peperit filium, vocavitque nomen ejus Seth, dicens : Posuit mihi Deus semen aliud pro Abel, quem occidit Cain.	²⁵ And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and called his name Seth, for she said, "God has appointed for me another child instead of Abel, for Cain slew him."
²⁶ Sed et Seth natus est filius, quem vocavit Enos : iste c?pit invocare nomen Domini.	²⁶ To Seth also a son was born, and he called his name Enosh. At that time men began to call upon the name of the LORD.
