创世记 4
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
World English Bible
1有一日,那人和他妻子 夏娃 同房, 夏娃 就怀孕,生了 该隐 ,便说:「耶和华使我得了一个男子。」
1The man knew Eve his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, “I have gotten a man with the LORD’s help.”
2又生了 该隐 的兄弟 亚伯 。 亚伯 是牧羊的; 该隐 是种地的。
2Again she gave birth, to Cain’s brother Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
3有一日, 该隐 拿地里的出产为供物献给耶和华;
3As time passed, Cain brought an offering to the LORD from the fruit of the ground.
4亚伯 也将他羊群中头生的和羊的脂油献上。耶和华看中了 亚伯 和他的供物,
4Abel also brought some of the firstborn of his flock and of its fat. The LORD respected Abel and his offering,
5只是看不中 该隐 和他的供物。 该隐 就大大地发怒,变了脸色。
5but he didn’t respect Cain and his offering. Cain was very angry, and the expression on his face fell.
6耶和华对 该隐 说:「你为什么发怒呢?你为什么变了脸色呢?
6The LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why has the expression of your face fallen?
7你若行得好,岂不蒙悦纳?你若行得不好,罪就伏在门前。它必恋慕你,你却要制伏它。」
7If you do well, won’t it be lifted up? If you don’t do well, sin crouches at the door. Its desire is for you, but you are to rule over it.”
8该隐 与他兄弟 亚伯 说话;二人正在田间。 该隐 起来打他兄弟 亚伯 ,把他杀了。
8Cain said to Abel, his brother, “Let’s go into the field.” While they were in the field, Cain rose up against Abel, his brother, and killed him.
9耶和华对 该隐 说:「你兄弟 亚伯 在哪里?」他说:「我不知道!我岂是看守我兄弟的吗?」
9The LORD said to Cain, “Where is Abel, your brother?” He said, “I don’t know. Am I my brother’s keeper?”
10耶和华说:「你做了什么事呢?你兄弟的血有声音从地里向我哀告。
10The LORD said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries to me from the ground.
11地开了口,从你手里接受你兄弟的血。现在你必从这地受咒诅。
11Now you are cursed because of the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
12你种地,地不再给你效力;你必流离飘荡在地上。」
12From now on, when you till the ground, it won’t yield its strength to you. You will be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth.”
13该隐 对耶和华说:「我的刑罚太重,过于我所能当的。
13Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14你如今赶逐我离开这地,以致不见你面;我必流离飘荡在地上,凡遇见我的必杀我。」
14Behold, you have driven me out today from the surface of the ground. I will be hidden from your face, and I will be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth. Whoever finds me will kill me.”
15耶和华对他说:「凡杀 该隐 的,必遭报七倍。」耶和华就给 该隐 立一个记号,免得人遇见他就杀他。
15The LORD said to him, “Therefore whoever slays Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold.” The LORD appointed a sign for Cain, so that anyone finding him would not strike him.
16于是 该隐 离开耶和华的面,去住在 伊甸 东边 挪得 之地。
16Cain left the LORD’s presence, and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17该隐 与妻子同房,他妻子就怀孕,生了 以诺 。 该隐 建造了一座城,就按着他儿子的名将那城叫做 以诺 。
17Cain knew his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Enoch. He built a city, and named the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
18以诺 生 以拿 ; 以拿 生 米户雅利 ; 米户雅利 生 玛土撒利 ; 玛土撒利 生 拉麦 。
18Irad was born to Enoch. Irad became the father of Mehujael. Mehujael became the father of Methushael. Methushael became the father of Lamech.
19拉麦 娶了两个妻:一个名叫 亚大 ,一个名叫 洗拉 。
19Lamech took two wives: the name of the first one was Adah, and the name of the second one was Zillah.
20亚大 生 雅八 ; 雅八 就是住帐棚、牧养牲畜之人的祖师。
20Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.
21雅八 的兄弟名叫 犹八 ;他是一切弹琴吹箫之人的祖师。
21His brother’s name was Jubal, who was the father of all who handle the harp and pipe.
22洗拉 又生了 土八·该隐 ;他是打造各样铜铁利器的。 土八·该隐 的妹子是 拿玛 。
22Zillah also gave birth to Tubal Cain, the forger of every cutting instrument of bronze and iron. Tubal Cain’s sister was Naamah.
23拉麦 对他两个妻子说: 亚大 、 洗拉 ,听我的声音; 拉麦 的妻子,细听我的话语: 壮年人伤我,我把他杀了; 少年人损我,我把他害了。
23Lamech said to his wives, “Adah and Zillah, hear my voice. You wives of Lamech, listen to my speech, for I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for bruising me.
24若杀 该隐 ,遭报七倍, 杀 拉麦 ,必遭报七十七倍。
24If Cain will be avenged seven times, truly Lamech seventy-seven times.”
25亚当 又与妻子同房,她就生了一个儿子,起名叫 塞特 ,意思说:「 神另给我立了一个儿子代替 亚伯 ,因为 该隐 杀了他。」
25Adam knew his wife again. She gave birth to a son, and named him Seth, saying, “for God has given me another child instead of Abel, for Cain killed him.”
26塞特 也生了一个儿子,起名叫 以挪士 。那时候,人才求告耶和华的名。
26A son was also born to Seth, and he named him Enosh. At that time men began to call on the LORD’s name.
