Genesis 4:17--4:24 (The Descendants of Cain)
4:17 Cain and his wife had a son and named him Enoch. Then Cain built a city and named it after his son.
4:18 Enoch had a son named Irad, who was the father of Mehujael, and Mehujael had a son named Methushael, who was the father of Lamech.
4:19 Lamech had two wives, Adah and Zillah.
4:20 Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the ancestor of those who raise livestock and live in tents.
4:21 His brother was Jubal, the ancestor of all musicians who play the harp and the flute.
4:22 Zillah gave birth to Tubal Cain, who made all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron. The sister of Tubal Cain was Naamah.
4:23 Lamech said to his wives,
“Adah and Zillah, listen to me:
I have killed a young man
because he struck me.
4:24 if seven lives are taken to pay for killing Cain,
Seventy-seven will be taken if anyone kills me.”
