New Testament

Genesis 4:20-26 English Standard Version (ESV)

20. 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 lyre and pipe.

22. Zillah also bore Tubal-cain; he was the forger of all instruments of bronze and iron. The sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.

23. Lamech said to his wives:“Adah and Zillah, hear my voice;you wives of Lamech, listen to what I say:I have killed a man for wounding me,a young man for striking me.

24. If Cain’s revenge is sevenfold,then Lamech’s is 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 offspring instead of Abel, for Cain killed him.”

26. To Seth also a son was born, and he called his name Enosh. At that time people began to call upon the name of the Lord.
