        Yubal, who was the father of all who handle the harp and pipe. Tsillah also gave birth to
        Tubal Kayin, the forger of every cutting instrument of brass and iron. Tubal Kayin’s sister
        was Na’amah. Lemek said to his wives,

               “Awdah and Tsillah, hear my voice.
               You wives of Lemek, listen to my speech,
               for I have slain a man for wounding me,
               a young man for bruising me.
               If Kayin will be avenged seven times,
               truly Lemek seventy-seven times.”

               Adam knew his wife again. She gave birth to a son, and named him Sheth
        [appointed], “for Elohim has appointed me another child instead of Abel, for Kayin killed
        him.” There was also born a son to Sheth, and he named him Enosh. Then men began to
        call on Yahweh’s name.

               This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that Elohim created man, he
        made him in Elohim’s likeness. He created them male and female, and blessed them, and
        called their name “Adam,” in the day when they were created. Adam lived one hundred
        thirty years, and became the father of a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named
        him Sheth. The days of Adam after he became the father of Sheth were eight hundred
        years, and he became the father of sons and daughters. All the days that Adam lived were
        nine hundred thirty years, then he died.
               Sheth lived one hundred five years, and became the father of Enosh. Sheth lived
        after he became the father of Enosh eight hundred seven years, and became the father of
        sons and daughters. All the days of Sheth were nine hundred twelve years, then he died.
               Enosh lived ninety years, and became the father of Kayinan. Enosh lived after he
        became the father of Kayinan, eight hundred fifteen years, and became the father of sons
        and daughters. All the days of Enosh were nine hundred five years, then he died.
               Kayinan lived seventy years, and became the father of Mahalalel. Kayinan lived
        after he became the father of Mahalalel eight hundred forty years, and became the father of
        sons and daughters and all the days of Kayinan were nine hundred ten years, then he died.
               Mahalalel lived sixty-five years, and became the father of Yered. Mahalalel lived
        after he became the father of Yered eight hundred thirty years, and became the father of
        sons and daughters. All the days of Mahalalel were eight hundred ninety-five years, then
        he died.
               Yered lived one hundred sixty-two years, and became the father of Kanok [Enoch].
        Yered lived after he became the father of Kanok eight hundred years, and became the
