Genesis

And Adam knew his wife, Eva. And conceiving, she brought forth Kaïn, and said: "I acquired a human through the Theos."

And she proceeded to bring forth his brother Abel. And Abel became a shepherd of sheep, but Kaïn was working the land.

And it happened after days that Kaïn brought from the fruits of the land a sacrifice to the lord.

And Abel himself also brought [a sacrifice] from the first-born of his sheep, and from his fatlings. And the Theos looked upon Abel, and upon his gifts.

But upon Kaïn, and upon his sacrifices, he paid no attention to. And Kaïn grieved exceedingly, and the face became downcast.

And the lord Theos said to Kaïn: "Why are you deeply grieved, and why [is] your face downcast?

If you brought not rightly, moreover not rightly divided, [you] missed the mark. Be still, towards you [shall be] his submission, and you will rule him."

And Kaïn said to his brother Abel: "Let us go into the plain." And it happened in their being in the plain, [that] Kaïn rose up against his brother Abel, and killed him.

And the lord Theos said to Kaïn: "Where is your brother Abel?" And he said: "I do not know not. I am not [the] guard of my brother."

And [the] lord said: "What did you do? [The] voice of your brother's blood cries to me from the earth.

And now, accursed [are] you, away from the earth who gaped her mouth wide to receive your brother's blood from your hand.

When you work the earth, and [it does] not add to give her strength to you, [then in] moaning and trembling you will be upon the earth.

And Kaïn said to [the] lord: "My cause [is too] great to forgive me.

If you cast me today from [the] face of the earth, and from your face, I will hide, and I will be moaning and trembling upon the earth. And it will be that the whole finding me, will kill me."

And the lord Theos said to him: "Not thus, [as] the whole killing Kaïn will be paralyzed [by] punishing seven [times]." And the lord Theos put a sign [to] Kaïn [for] the whole finding him to not do him away.

And Kaïn went forth from [the] face of the Theos, and he lived in Naïd land, opposite Edem.

And Kaïn knew his wife. And conceiving, she bore Enoch. And he was building a city [-state]. And he named the [city-] state after the name of his son Enoch.

And [to] Enoch was born Gaïdad. And Gaïdad begot Maleleél. And Maleleél begot Mathousala. And Mathousala begot Lamech.

And Lamech took to himself two wives: [the] name of the one [was] Ada, and [the] name of the second [was] Sella.

And Ada bore Iobel. This [one] was the father of those dwelling in tents, feeding cattle.

And [the] name [of] his brother [was] Ioubal. This [one] was the [one] introducing [the] psaltery and [the] harp.

And Sella also bore Thobel. And he was a hammersmith, a brazier of brass and iron. And [the] sister of Thobel was Noéma.

And Lamech said [to] his own wives Ada and Sella: "Hear my voice, wives of Lamech! Give ear to my words, for I killed a man into a wound to me, and a youth into a bruise to me.

For punishing seven times [is] from Kaïn, but from Lamech seventy times seven."

And Adam knew his wife, Eva. And conceiving, she bore a son. And she named his name Seth, saying: "For the Theos raised up to me another seed instead of Abel, whom Kaïn killed."

And [to] Seth was born a son. And he named his name Enos. This one hoped to call upon the name of the lord Theos.
