23 Lémec dit à ses femmes: Ada et Tsilla, écoutez ma voix! Femmes de Lémec, écoutez ma parole! J’ai tué un homme pour ma blessure, Et un jeune homme pour ma meurtrissure.

24 Caïn sera vengé sept fois, Et Lémec soixante-dix-sept fois.

25 Adam connut encore sa femme; elle enfanta un fils, et l’appela du nom de Seth, car, dit-elle, Dieu m’a donné un autre fils à la place d’Abel, que Caïn a tué.

26 Seth eut aussi un fils, et il l’appela du nom d’Énosch. C’est alors que l’on commença à invoquer le nom de l’Éternel.
