UGenesise 4
uKhayini no-Abela
1U-Adamu wamazi umkakhe u-Eva; wakhulelwa, wazala uKayini, wathi: “Ngifumene indoda evela kuJehova.”
2Waphinda wazala umfowabo u-Abela. U-Abela wayengumalusi wezinkomo, kepha uKayini wayengumlimi.
3Kwathi ngokuhamba kwesikhathi uKayini waletha umnikelo eNkosini evela ezithelweni zomhlabathi.
4U-Abela naye waletha amanye amazibulo ezimvu zakhe namanoni awo. UJehova wamnaka u-Abela nomhlatshelo wakhe.
5Kodwa akazange amnake uKhayini nomhlatshelo wakhe. UKayini wathukuthela kakhulu, ubuso bakhe bawa.
6INkosi yasisithi kuKayini: Uthukuthelelani? kungani ubuso bakho bunyukubele?
7Uma wenza kahle, awuyikwamukeleka na? uma ungenzi okuhle, isono sihlezi ngasemnyango. Futhi emva kwakho kuyoba isifiso sakhe, futhi uyobusa phezu kwakhe.
8UKayini wakhuluma no-Abela umfowabo; kwathi besendle, uKayini wavukela umfowabo u-Abela, wambulala.
9INkosi yasisithi kuKayini: Ungaphi umfowenu uAbela? Wathi: “Angazi: Ngingumlindi womfowethu na?”
10Wathi: “Wenzeni na? izwi legazi lomfowenu limemeza kimi lisemhlabathini.
11Manje usuqalekisiwe emhlabeni owavula umlomo wawo ukuba wamukele igazi lomfowenu esandleni sakho;
12Lapho ulima umhlabathi, ngeke usakunika amandla awo; uyakuba ngumbaleki nesihambi emhlabeni.
13UKayini wasesithi eNkosini: Isijeziso sami sikhulu kulalokho engingasithwala.
14Bheka, uyangixosha namuhla emhlabeni; ngiyakusitheka ebusweni baKho; futhi ngiyoba umbaleki nozulane emhlabeni; futhi noma ubani ongitholayo uzongibulala.
15INkosi yasisithi kuye: Ngakho loba ngubani obulala uKhayini uzaphindiselwa kasikhombisa. UJehova wabeka uphawu kuKayini, ukuze kungabikho muntu omfumanayo angambulala.
16Futhi uKayini wasuka ebusweni bukaJehova futhi wahamba wayohlala ezweni laseNodi, ngasempumalanga kwase-Edene.
17UKayini wamazi umkakhe; wakhulelwa, wazala u-Enoke; wakha umuzi, wawuqamba ngegama lendodana yakhe u-Enoke.
18U-Enoke wazala u-Irade, u-Iradi wazala uMehujayeli, uMehujayeli wazala uMethusayeli, noMethusayeli wazala uLameka.
19ULameka wazithathela abafazi ababili; igama lomunye lalingu-Ada, igama lomunye lalinguSila.
20U-Ada wazala uJabali; waba nguyise wabahlala ematendeni nabafuya izinkomo.
21Igama lomfowabo lalinguJubali; waba nguyise wabo bonke abaphatha izintambo nezitho.
22USila wazala uThubalikayini, umfundisi wazo zonke izisebenzi zethusi nezensimbi; udadewabo kaThubali-kayin wayenguNahama.
23ULameka wasesithi kubafazi bakhe: UAda loSila, Zwanini ilizwi lami! Madodakazi akwaLameka, lalelani izwi lami, ngoba ngibulale indoda ngenxeba lami nensizwa ngokulimala kwami.
24Uma uKayini eyakuphindiselwa kasikhombisa, uLameka kamashumi ayisikhombisa nesikhombisa.
25U-Adamu wabuye wamazi umkakhe; wazala indodana, wayiqamba igama lokuthi uSeti. Ngokuba uNkulunkulu, wathi, ungimisele enye inzalo esikhundleni sika-Abela owabulala uKhayini.
26Naye uSeti wazalelwa indodana; waqamba igama layo ngokuthi u-Enoshe; abantu base beqala ukubiza iGama leNkosi.
