Genesis 4:17 in Context — Genesis 4
15 E respondeu-lhe o SENHOR: Certo que qualquer um que matar a Caim, sete vezes será castigado. Então o SENHOR pôs sinal em Caim, para que não o ferisse qualquer um que o achasse.
16 E saiu Caim de diante do SENHOR, e habitou na terra de Node, ao oriente de Éden.
17 E conheceu Caim a sua mulher, a qual concebeu e deu à luz a Enoque: e edificou uma cidade, e chamou o nome da cidade do nome de seu filho, Enoque.
18 E a Enoque nasceu Irade, e Irade gerou a Meujael, e Meujael gerou a Metusael, e Metusael gerou a Lameque.
19 E tomou para si Lameque duas mulheres; o nome de uma foi Ada, e o nome da outra Zilá.
