American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
And Methuselah lived a hundred eighty and seven years, and begat Lamech:
and Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons and daughters.
And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died.
And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents and have cattle.
And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and pipe.
And Zillah, she also bare Tubal-cain, {Or, an instructor of every artificer}the forger of every cutting instrument of {Or, copper (and so elsewhere)}brass and iron: and the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.
And Lamech said unto his wives:Adah and Zillah, hear my voice;Ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech:For {Or, I will slay}I have slain a man {Or, to my wounding, And a young man to my hurt}for wounding me,And a young man for bruising me:
If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold,Truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days; for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.
They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and my chosen shall {Hebrew: wear out.}long enjoy the work of their hands.
