WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)
1 And the man knew his wife Eve, and she conceives and bears Cain, and says, “I have acquired a man by YHWH”;
1 The man knew Eve his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, “I have gotten a man with Yahweh’s help.”
2 and she adds to bear his brother, even Abel. And Abel is feeding a flock, and Cain has been servant of the ground.
2 Again she gave birth, to Cain’s brother Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
3 And it comes to pass at the end of days that Cain brings from the fruit of the ground a present to YHWH;
3 As time passed, Cain brought an offering to Yahweh from the fruit of the ground.
4 and Abel, he has brought, he also, from the female firstlings of his flock, and from their fat ones; and YHWH looks to Abel and to his present,
4 Abel also brought some of the firstborn of his flock and of its fat. Yahweh respected Abel and his offering,
5 and to Cain and to his present He has not looked; and it is very displeasing to Cain, and his countenance is fallen.
5 but he didn’t respect Cain and his offering. Cain was very angry, and the expression on his face fell.
6 And YHWH says to Cain, “Why do you have displeasure? And why has your countenance fallen?
6 Yahweh said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why has the expression of your face fallen?
7 Is there not, if you do well, acceptance? And if you do not do well, sin [[or a sin-offering]] is lying at the opening, and its [[or His]] desire [is] for you, and you rule over it [[or by Him]].”
7 If 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 And Cain says to his brother Abel, [[“Let us go into the field”;]] and it comes to pass in their being in the field, that Cain rises up against his brother Abel, and slays him.
8 Cain 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 And YHWH says to Cain, “Where [is] your brother Abel?” And he says, “I have not known; am I my brother’s keeper?”
9 Yahweh said to Cain, “Where is Abel, your brother?” He said, “I don’t know. Am I my brother’s keeper?”
10 And He says, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood is crying to Me from the ground;
10 Yahweh said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries to me from the ground.
11 and now, cursed [are] you from the ground, which has opened her mouth to receive the blood of your brother from your hand;
11 Now you are cursed because of the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
12 when you till the ground, it will not add to give its strength to you—a wanderer, even a trembling one, you are in the earth.”
12 From 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 And Cain says to YHWH, “My punishment is too great than to bear;
13 Cain said to Yahweh, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14 behold, You have driven me today from off the face of the ground, and from Your face I am hid; and I have been a wanderer, even a trembling one, in the earth, and it has been—everyone finding me will slay me.”
14 Behold, 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 And YHWH says to him, “Therefore, of any slayer of Cain it is required sevenfold”; and YHWH sets to Cain a token that none finding him will slay him.
15 Yahweh said to him, “Therefore whoever slays Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold.” Yahweh appointed a sign for Cain, so that anyone finding him would not strike him.
16 And Cain goes out from before YHWH, and dwells in the land, moving about east of Eden;
16 Cain left Yahweh’s presence, and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17 and Cain knows his wife, and she conceives, and bears Enoch; and he is building a city, and he calls the name of the city, according to the name of his son—Enoch.
17 Cain 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 And born to Enoch is Irad; and Irad has begotten Mehujael; and Mehujael has begotten Methusael; and Methusael has begotten Lamech.
18 Irad was born to Enoch. Irad became the father of Mehujael. Mehujael became the father of Methushael. Methushael became the father of Lamech.
19 And Lamech takes to himself two wives, the name of the first Adah, and the name of the second Zillah.
19 Lamech took two wives: the name of the first one was Adah, and the name of the second one was Zillah.
20 And Adah bears Jabal, he has been father of those inhabiting tents and [having] purchased livestock;
20 Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.
21 and the name of his brother [is] Jubal, he has been father of everyone handling harp and pipe.
21 His brother’s name was Jubal, who was the father of all who handle the harp and pipe.
22 And Zillah, she also bears Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron; and a sister of Tubal-Cain [is] Naamah.
22 Zillah also gave birth to Tubal Cain, the forger of every cutting instrument of bronze and iron. Tubal Cain’s sister was Naamah.
23 And Lamech says to his wives: “Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; Wives of Lamech, give ear [to] my saying: For I have slain a man for my wound, || Even a young man for my hurt;
23 Lamech 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 For sevenfold is required for Cain, || And for Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”
24 If Cain will be avenged seven times, truly Lamech seventy-seven times.”
25 And Adam again knows his wife, and she bears a son, and calls his name Seth, “for God has appointed for me another seed instead of Abel”: for Cain had slain him.
25 Adam 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 And to Seth, to him also a son has been born, and he calls his name Enos; then a beginning was made of preaching in the Name of YHWH.
26 A son was also born to Seth, and he named him Enosh. At that time men began to call on Yahweh’s name.
