1 Now Noaḥ had taken a wife of the seed of Qayin, and she was a righteous woman; nevertheless, the curse remained with her seed according to the word of Elohim.
2 And Noaḥ took her on this wise: For the word of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 came unto Noaḥ, saying, Take for yourself Na’amah, the daughter of Lemeḵ, who dwells here in the city of your fathers, for she has been faithful to My Besorah, wherefore I shall preserve through her the seed of Qayin through the flood.
3 This Lemeḵ who was the father of Na’amah was of the seed of Qayin being the son of Methusa’ĕl, the son of Meḥuya’ĕl, the son of Iraḏ, the son of Ḥanoḵ, the son of Qayin.
4 Lemeḵ had married Aḏah and Tsillah, the daughters of Kena’an, the son of Enosh, the son of Shĕth, the son of Aḏam. Aḏah bare children unto Lemeḵ, but Tsillah was barren until her old age when 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 opened her womb, and she conceived and bare a son and a daughter.
5 Her son she named Tuḇal-Qayin, saying, After I had withered away have I obtained him from the Almighty Elohim.
6 Her daughter she named Na’amah, saying, After I had withered away have I obtained pleasure and delight.
