Genesis 4:23
Then Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; wives of Lamech, listen to my speech. For I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.
Context
      23Lamech said to his wives,
         “Adah and Zillah,
         Listen to my voice,
         You wives of Lamech,
         Give heed to my speech,
         For I have killed a man for wounding me;
         And a boy for striking me;

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

      25Adam had relations with his wife again; and she gave birth to a son, and named him Seth, for, she said, “God has appointed me another offspring in place of Abel, for Cain killed him.” 26To Seth, to him also a son was born; and he called his name Enosh. Then men began to call upon the name of the LORD.
