Translation of Genesis 4:19

For himself Lamech took two wives. Name of the first is Adah, name of the second is Zillah.

Comments

It is sometimes taught that taking more than one wife is wrong, because this happened with Cain's descendants. But too assume that all coming from Cain is evil, is wrong (for example Enoch was also a son of Cain). However, note that this issue is also addressed in New Testament.
