New International Version NIV
17 E Caino conobbe la sua moglie, la quale concepì e partorì Enoc. Poi si mise a edificare una città, a cui diede il nome di Enoc, dal nome del suo figliuolo.
17
Cain made love to his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch. Cain was then building a city, and he named it after his son Enoch.
18 E ad Enoc nacque Irad; Irad generò Mehujael; Mehujael generò Methushael, e Methushael generò Lamec.
18
To Enoch was born Irad, and Irad was the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael was the father of Methushael, and Methushael was the father of Lamech.
19 E Lamec prese due mogli: il nome dell’una era Ada, e il nome dell’altra, Zilla.
19
Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah.
20 E Ada partorì Jabal, che fu il padre di quelli che abitano sotto le tende presso i greggi.
20
Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who live in tents and raise livestock.
21 E il nome del suo fratello era Jubal, che fu il padre di tutti quelli che suonano la cetra ed il flauto.
21
His brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play stringed instruments and pipes.
22 E Zilla partorì anch’essa Tubal-cain, l’artefice d’ogni sorta di strumenti di rame e di ferro, e la sorella di Tubal-cain fu Naama.
22
Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who forged all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron. Tubal-Cain’s sister was Naamah.
23 E Lamec disse alle sue mogli: "Ada e Zilla, ascoltate la mia voce; mogli di Lamec, porgete orecchio ai mio dire! Sì, io ho ucciso un uomo perché m’ha ferito, e un giovine perché m’ha contuso.
23
Lamech said to his wives, “Adah and Zillah, listen to me; wives of Lamech, hear my words. I have killed a man for wounding me, a young man for injuring me.
24 Se Caino sarà vendicato sette volte, Lamec lo sarà settantasette volte".
24
If Cain is avenged seven times, then Lamech seventy-seven times.”
25 E Adamo conobbe ancora la sua moglie, ed essa partorì un figliuolo, a cui pose nome Seth, "perché" ella disse, "Iddio m’ha dato un altro figliuolo al posto d’Abele, che Caino ha ucciso".
25
Adam made love to his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, “God has granted me another child in place of Abel, since Cain killed him.”
26 E anche a Seth nacque un figliuolo, a cui pose nome Enosh. Allora si cominciò a invocare il nome dell’Eterno.
26
Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time people began to call on the name of the LORD.
