Genesis 4:19

19 And Lamech took two wives. The name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.


Genesis 4:23–24

23 Lamech 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.

24  kIf Cain’s revenge is sevenfold,

then Lamech’s is seventy-sevenfold.
