Genesis 4:22-24

New International Reader's Version

²²Zillah also had a son. His name was Tubal-Cain. He made all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron. Tubal-Cain’s sister was Naamah.

²³Lamech said to his wives,

“Adah and Zillah, listen to me!
    You wives of Lamech, hear my words!
I have killed a man because he wounded me.
    I have killed a young man because he hurt me.
²⁴Anyone who would have killed Cain would have been paid back seven times.
    But anyone who hurts me will be paid back 77 times.”
