16 Then Cain went out from the presence of the
LORD and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden. 17 And Cain
knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and
called the name of the city after the name of his son—Enoch. 18
To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad
begot Mehujael, and Mehujael
begot Methushael, and Methushael
begot Lamech. 19 Then Lamech took for himself two wives: the name
of one was Adah, and the name of the second was
Zillah. 20 And Adah bore Jabal. He was the father of those who dwell in tents and
have livestock. 21 His brother’s name was Jubal. He was the father of all those who play the harp
and flute. 22 And as for Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze
and iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah. 23 Then Lamech said to his wives: “Adah
and Zillah, hear my voice; Wives of Lamech, listen to my speech! For I have killed a man for wounding me,
Even a young man for hurting me. 24 If
Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, Then Lamech
seventy-sevenfold.”
