創世記 4
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1有一日,那人和他妻子 夏娃 同房, 夏娃 就懷孕,生了 該隱 ,便說:「耶和華使我得了一個男子。」
1And 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又生了 該隱 的兄弟 亞伯 。 亞伯 是牧羊的; 該隱 是種地的。
2Later she gave birth to Cain’s brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, while Cain was a tiller of the soil.
3有一日, 該隱 拿地裏的出產為供物獻給耶和華;
3So in the course of time, Cain brought some of the fruit of the soil as an offering to the LORD,
4亞伯 也將他羊群中頭生的和羊的脂油獻上。耶和華看中了 亞伯 和他的供物,
4while Abel brought the best portions of the firstborn of his flock. And the LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering,
5只是看不中 該隱 和他的供物。 該隱 就大大地發怒,變了臉色。
5but He had no regard for Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his countenance fell.
6耶和華對 該隱 說:「你為甚麼發怒呢?你為甚麼變了臉色呢?
6“Why are you angry,” said the LORD to Cain, “and why has your countenance fallen?
7你若行得好,豈不蒙悅納?你若行得不好,罪就伏在門前。它必戀慕你,你卻要制伏它。」
7If 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該隱 與他兄弟 亞伯 說話;二人正在田間。 該隱 起來打他兄弟 亞伯 ,把他殺了。
8Then 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耶和華對 該隱 說:「你兄弟 亞伯 在哪裏?」他說:「我不知道!我豈是看守我兄弟的嗎?」
9And the LORD said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I do not know!” he answered. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
10耶和華說:「你做了甚麼事呢?你兄弟的血有聲音從地裏向我哀告。
10“What have you done?” replied the LORD. “The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground.
11地開了口,從你手裏接受你兄弟的血。現在你必從這地受咒詛。
11Now you are cursed and banished from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
12你種地,地不再給你效力;你必流離飄蕩在地上。」
12When 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該隱 對耶和華說:「我的刑罰太重,過於我所能當的。
13But Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14你如今趕逐我離開這地,以致不見你面;我必流離飄蕩在地上,凡遇見我的必殺我。」
14Behold, 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耶和華對他說:「凡殺 該隱 的,必遭報七倍。」耶和華就給 該隱 立一個記號,免得人遇見他就殺他。
15“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於是 該隱 離開耶和華的面,去住在 伊甸 東邊 挪得 之地。
16So Cain went out from the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17該隱 與妻子同房,他妻子就懷孕,生了 以諾 。 該隱 建造了一座城,就按着他兒子的名將那城叫做 以諾 。
17And 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.
18以諾 生 以拿 ; 以拿 生 米戶雅利 ; 米戶雅利 生 瑪土撒利 ; 瑪土撒利 生 拉麥 。
18Now 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拉麥 娶了兩個妻:一個名叫 亞大 ,一個名叫 洗拉 。
19And Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah.
20亞大 生 雅八 ; 雅八 就是住帳棚、牧養牲畜之人的祖師。
20Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and raise livestock.
21雅八 的兄弟名叫 猶八 ;他是一切彈琴吹簫之人的祖師。
21And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play the harp and flute.
22洗拉 又生了 土八‧該隱 ;他是打造各樣銅鐵利器的。 土八‧該隱 的妹子是 拿瑪 。
22And Zillah gave birth to Tubal-cain, a forger of every implement of bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.
23拉麥 對他兩個妻子說: 亞大 、 洗拉 ,聽我的聲音; 拉麥 的妻子,細聽我的話語: 壯年人傷我,我把他殺了; 少年人損我,我把他害了 。
23Then 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若殺 該隱 ,遭報七倍, 殺 拉麥 ,必遭報七十七倍。
24If Cain is avenged sevenfold, then Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”
25亞當 又與妻子同房,她就生了一個兒子,起名叫 塞特 ,意思說:「上帝另給我立了一個兒子代替 亞伯 ,因為 該隱 殺了他。」
25And 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.”
26塞特 也生了一個兒子,起名叫 以挪士 。那時候,人才求告耶和華的名。
26And 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.
