               was no food for the sons of men and the famine   abominable in the sight of their men as widows,
               was very great in those days. 8 And the seed which   while their men lived, for to the barren ones only
               they sowed in those days in the ground became   they were attached. 23 And in the end of days and
               thorns,  thistles  and  briers;  for  from  the  days  of   years, when Tsillah became old, YAHUAH opened
               Adam was this declaration concerning the earth,   her womb. 24 And she conceived and bore a son
               of  the  curse  of  ELOHIYM,  which  he  cursed  the   and she called his name Tubal Qayin, saying, After
               earth, on account of the sin which Adam sinned   I had withered away have I obtained him from EL
               before  YAHUAH.  9  And  it  was  when  men   SHADDAI ELOHIYM. 25 And she conceived again
               continued  to  rebel  and  transgress  against   and  bore  a  daughter,  and  she  called  her  name
               ELOHIYM,  and  to  corrupt  their  ways,  that  the   Na`amah, for she said, After I had withered away
               earth  also  became  corrupt.  10  And  Enosh  lived   have  I  obtained  pleasure  and  delight.  26  And
               ninety years and he begat Qeynan; 11 And Qeynan   Lemek was old and advanced in years, and his eyes
               grew up and he was forty years old, and he became   were dim that he could not see, and Tubal Qayin,
               wise and had knowledge and skill in all wisdom,   his son, was leading him and it was one day that
               and he reigned over all the sons of men, and he led   Lemek went into the field and Tubal Qayin his son
               the  sons  of  men  to  wisdom  and  knowledge;  for   was with him, and while they were walking in the
               Qeynan  was  a  very  wise  man  and  had   field,  Qayin  the  son  of  Adam  advanced  towards
               understanding in all wisdom, and with his wisdom   them; for Lemek was very old and could not see
               he ruled over ruachoth and devils; 12 And Qeynan   much, and Tubal Qayin his son was very young. 27
               knew by his wisdom that ELOHIYM would destroy   And Tubal Qayin told his father to draw his bow,
               the sons of men for having sinned upon earth, and   and with the arrows he smote Qayin, who was yet
               that YAHUAH would in the latter days bring upon   far off, and he slew him, for he appeared to them
               them the waters of the flood. 13 And in those days   to  be  an  animal.  28  And  the  arrows  entered
               Qeynan wrote upon tablets of stone, what was to   Qayin's body although he was distant from them,
               take place in time to come, and he put them in his   and  he  fell  to  the  ground  and  died.  29  And
               treasures. 14 And Qeynan reigned over the whole   YAHUAH  requited  Qayin's  evil  according  to  his
               earth, and he turned some of the sons of men to   wickedness,  which  he  had  done  to  his  brother
               the service of ELOHIYM. 15 And when Qeynan was   H’avel, according to the Word of YAHUAH which
               seventy  years  old,  he  begat  three  sons  and  two   he had spoken. 30 And it came to pass when Qayin
               daughters.  16  And  these  are  the  names  of  the   had died, that Lemek and Tubal Qayin went to see
               children  of  Qeynan;  the  name  of  the  firstborn   the animal which they had slain, and they saw, and
               Mahalal’el, the second Eynan, and the third Mered,   behold  Qayin  their  grandfather  was  fallen  dead
               and their sisters were Adah and Tsillah; these are   upon  the  earth.  31  And  Lemek  was  very  much
               the five children of Qeynan that were born to him.   grieved  at  having  done  this,  and  in  clapping  his
               17  And  Lemek,  the  son  of  Methusha’el,  became   hands together he struck his son and caused his
               related  to  Qeynan  by  marriage,  and  he  took  his   death. 32 And the women of Lemek heard what
               two daughters for his women, and Adah conceived   Lemek had done, and they sought to kill him. 33
               and bore a son to Lemek, and she called his name   And the women of Lemek hated him from that day,
               Yaval. 18 And she again conceived and bore a son,   because he slew Qayin and Tubal Qayin, and the
               and called his name Yuval; and Tsillah, her sister,   women of Lemek separated from him, and would
               was barren in those days and had no offspring. 19   not hearken to him in those days. 34 And Lemek
               For  in  those  days  the  sons  of  men  began  to   came to his women, and he pressed them to listen
               transgression against ELOHIYM, and to transgress   to  him  about  this  matter.  35  And  he  said  to  his
               the commandments which he had commanded to   women Adah and Tsillah, Hear my voice O women
               Adam, to be fruitful and multiply in the earth. 20   of Lemek, attend to my words, for now you have
               And some of the sons of men caused their women   imagined  and  said  that  I  slew  a  man  with  my
               to drink a draught that would render them barren,   wounds,  and  a  child  with  my  stripes  for  their
               in order that they might retain their figures and   having done no violence, but surely know that I am
               whereby  their  beautiful  appearance  might  not   old and grayheaded, and that my eyes are heavy
               fade. 21 And when the sons of men caused some   through age, and I did this thing unknowingly. 36
               of their women to drink, Tsillah drank with them.   And the women of Lemek listened to him in this
