14. Look, you have driven me out today from the face of the ground, and from your face I must hide. I will be a wanderer and a fugitive on the earth, and it will happen that whoever finds me will kill me.”
15. Then Yahweh said to him, “Therefore, whoever kills Cain will be avenged sevenfold.” Then Yahweh put a sign on Cain so that whoever found him would not kill him.
16. And Cain went out from the presence of Yahweh, and he settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17. And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch. And when he built a city he named the city after his son, Enoch.
18. And to Enoch was born Irad, and Irad fathered Mehujael, and Mehujael fathered Methushael, and Methushael fathered Lamech.
19. And Lamech took to himself two wives. The name of the first was Adah, and the name of the second was Zillah.
20. And Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who live in tents and those who have livestock.
21. And the name of his brother was Jubal; he was the father of all who play stringed instruments and wind instruments.
22. Then Zillah also gave birth to Tubal-Cain who forged all kinds of tools of bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah.
23. Then Lamech said to his wives, “Adah and Zillah, listen to my voice; O wives of Lamech, hear my words. I have killed a man for wounding me, Even a young man for injuring me.
24. If Cain is avenged sevenfold, Then Lamech will be avenged seventy and seven times.
25. Then Adam knew his wife again, and she gave birth to a son. And she called his name Seth, for she said “God has appointed to me another child in the place of Abel, because Cain killed him.”
26. And as for Seth, he also fathered a son, and he called his name Enosh. At that time he began to call on the name of Yahweh.
