If Cain will be avenged sevenfold, then truly Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”
Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.
So the Lord said to him, “Therefore whoever kills Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold.” Then the Lord put a mark upon Cain, so that no one finding him would kill him.
