Genesis 4:19-23
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.
23One day Lamech said to his wives, “Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; listen to me, you wives of Lamech. I have killed a man who attacked me, a young man who wounded me.
