1 Adamu nakawasa na mdala wa heye, na heye nakawa na himila, nakamponda Kaini. Hawa nakalonga, “Ndimponda mwana msongolo kwa utanzi wa Mkulu Nguluwi.” 2 Hamba nakamponda mkulugwe Abeli nayawele mdima ming'holo na Kaini nayali mlimi. 3 Mhela udo hela, Kaini nakamlavila Mkulu Nguluwi nhambiko ya mbena ya kumgunda, 4 na heye Abeli nakamlavila Mkulu Nguluwi nhambiko ya lulelo lwa mwaluko lwa ming'holo na vihande vya mafuta. Mkulu Nguluwi nakanojezwa na Abeli na nhambiko ya heye, 5 ila nahanojezwe na Kaini na nhambiko ya heye. Lelo Kaini nakazudila ng'hatu na kumeho kwa heye nakwali kukwisimbale. 6 Mkulu Nguluwi nakamlonjela Kaini, “Lekachoni kwanguzudila, na lekachoni kumeho kwa hegwe kukwisimbala? 7 Ndaze, wone udite ganojile hukundigwa hebu? Na wone huditile ganojile, lelo gehile gangusunjilila hali lwizi, wangukugana kukulongoza, ila kwanguganigwa kuusumya.”
8 Hamba Kaini nakamlonjela Abeli mng'holoze, “Tuche honhu kutali na mgunda.” Lelo lowali kumgunda Kaini nakamvada Abeli mng'holoze na kumkopola. 9 Mkulu Nguluwi nakamuuza Kaini, “Mng'holozo Abeli kakohi?” Kaini nakamwidichila, “Heni sivizelele. Ndaze, heni nda mwamizi wa mng'holozangu?” 10 Mkulu Nguluwi nakalonga, “Nakudita choni? Danda ya mng'holozo ya kota luzi lulingundilila kulawa kuli misanga. 11 Lelo hegwe nakupanjilwa na kuwinjigwa mchanya mwa misanga jiwele ngubochela danda ya mng'holozo youmkopole. 12 Wone ulime misanga hajikugalila kahi mbena ng'oo. Kowa munhu wa kulubaluba, yalihela honhu hatanganiche ha kikala.”
13 Kaini nakamlonjela Mkulu Nguluwi, “Utaguso wa heni wowa ukulu ng'hatu, siweza kwimilila hebu. 14 Ulole, lehano kumbinga kuli misanga jiwele na mboto na kutali na meho ga hegwe. Lelo ndowa munhu wa kulubaluba, yalihela honhu hatanganiche ha kikala muisi, na yoneche yombona kong'hopola.” 15 Ila Mkulu Nguluwi nakamwidichila, “Hebu! Yokukopola hegwe Kaini, kohilulilwa mala saba.” Lelo Mkulu Nguluwi nakamuwika Kaini ulajilo wa kumdita munhu yoneche yomona yaleche kumkopola. 16 Hamba Kaini nakoka kumwando kwa Mkulu Nguluwi, kawa yochikala kuli isi ya Nodi nzingo ya kolilawilaga isanya mwa kamgunda ka Edeni.

17 Kaini nakawasa na mdala wa heye, na heye kawa na himila, nakamponda Enoki. Kaini nakazenga muji nakauchema Enoki itagwa lya mwana wa heye. 18 Enoki nakawa mhaza wa Iladi, na heye Iladi nakawa mhaza wa Mehuyaeli, na Mehuyaeli nakawa mhaza wa Mesushaeli, na heye Mesushaeli nakawa mhaza wa Lameki. 19 Lameki nakahola wadala weli, yumwenga nakachemigwa Ada, na yunji Sila. 20 Ada nakamponda Yabali yawele mhaza wa wadimi walingikala mli mihema. 21 Mng'holoze nayali Yubali, ayo nayali mhaza wa hewo wawele towa ching'weleng'wele na mluli. 22 Sila na heye nakamponda Tubali-kaini, yawele mponzi wa vinhu vyeng'ha vya shaba na chuma. Lumbulye Tubali-kaini nakachemigwa Naama.
23 Lameki nakawalonjela wadala wa heye,

Mhulichize gondilonga hemwe wadala wa Lameki.
Heni nandimkopola munhu kwa chiwalo cha kung'wanyula,
ena, nandimkopola msongolo kwa kundumiza.
24 Wone Kaini kohilusilwa mala saba,
ndangukomya Lameki kohilusilwa mala makumi saba na saba.”
