who play the harp and flute…
Lamech said to his wives,
“Adah and Zillah, listen to me;
wives of Lamech, hear my words.
I have killed a man for wounding
me, a young man for injuring me.
If Cain is avenged seven times,
then Lamech seventy-seven times.”
Genesis 4:23-24

話語、壯年人傷我、我把他殺了、少

brothers; in the presence
of the congregation I will
sing your praises.”
