Genesis 4:18-24

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁸ And to Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begat Mehujael; and Mehujael begat Methushael; and Methushael begat Lamech.

¹⁹ ¶ And Lamech took to him two wives. The name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.

²⁰ And Adah bore Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in the tents, and of those who have cattle.

²¹ And his brother’s name was Jubal, who was the father of all who play on the harp and organs.

²² And Zillah also bore Tubal-Cain, who wrought cunningly every craft of brass and of iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah.

²³ Then Lamech said to his wives, Adah and Zillah, “Hear my voice, you wives of Lamech. Listen my speech. For I would kill a man for wounding me, and a young man who hurts me.

²⁴ “If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy times sevenfold.”
