Genesis 4:20-26 – 22 — Biblical reference

New International Version (NIV)

20 Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who live in tents and raise livestock. 21 His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play stringed instruments and pipes. 22 Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who forged all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron. Tubal-Cain’s sister was Naamah.

23 Lamech said to his wives,

...........“Adah and Zillah, listen to me;
....................wives of Lamech, hear my words.
................I have killed a man for wounding me,
....................a young man for injuring me.
.....24........If Cain is avenged seven times,
....................then Lamech seventy-seven times.”

25 Adam made love to his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, “God has granted me another child in place of Abel, since Cain killed him.” 26 Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh.

At that time people began to call on the name of the Lord.
