Genesis 4:22-24

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²²Zillah bore Tubal-cain, who made all kinds of bronze and iron tools. The sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.

²³Lamech 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.
²⁴If Cain is avenged sevenfold,
    truly Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”
