Genesis 4:16-22
16So Cain left the Lord’s presence and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
17Cain had sexual relations with his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch. Then Cain founded a city, which he named Enoch, after his son.
18Enoch had a son named Irad. Irad became the father of Mehujael. Mehujael became the father of Methushael. Methushael became the father of Lamech.
19Lamech married two women. The first was named Adah, and the second was Zillah.
20Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the first of those who raise livestock and live in tents.
21His brother’s name was Jubal, the first of all who play the harp and flute.
22Lamech’s other wife, Zillah, gave birth to a son named Tubal-cain. He became an expert in forging tools of bronze and iron. Tubal-cain had a sister named Naamah.
