Genesis 4:23-25
New Living Translation
23 One day Lamech said to his wives,
“Adah and Zillah, hear my voice;
listen to me, you wives of Lamech.
I have killed a man who attacked me,
a young man who wounded me.
24 If someone who kills Cain is punished seven times,
then the one who kills me will be punished seventy-seven times!”
The Birth of Seth
25 Adam had sexual relations with his wife again, and she gave birth to another son. She named him Seth,[a] for she said, “God has granted me another son in place of Abel, whom Cain killed.”

- 4:25 Seth probably means “granted”; the name may also mean “appointed.”
