Genesis 4:16-26 (Revised Standard Version)
16
Then Cain went away from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17
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 was the father of Me-hu'ja-el, and Me-hu'ja-el the father of Me-thu'sha-el, and Me-thu'sha-el the father of Lamech.
19
And Lamech took two wives; the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
20
Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and have cattle.
21
His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe.
22
Zillah bore Tubal-cain; he was the forger of all instruments of bronze and iron. The sister of Tubal-cain was Na'amah.
23
Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; you wives of Lamech, hearken to what I say: I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.
24
If Cain is avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy-sevenfold."
25
And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and called his name Seth, for she said, "God has appointed for me another child instead of Abel, for Cain slew him."
26
To Seth also a son was born, and he called his name Enosh. At that time men began to call upon the name of the LORD.
