Gen 4:26
  Interlinear
To Seth (Hebr. Shet) was also born a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time, people began to call upon the name of the Lord (Yahweh).
[Interesting word frequencies
God is mentioned a total of 35 (5 x 7) times as God (Elohim), the Lord (Yahweh) or the Lord God (Yahweh Elohim). Since God (Elohim) is also mentioned 35 times in the creation story, this means that God is mentioned 70 (10 x 7) times in the first two units of the Bible, chapters 1-4. The various names for God also appear with striking frequency: Elohim (40 times), Yahweh Elohim (20 times), and Yahweh (10 times). The seventieth time God is mentioned is: Then they began to call on the name of the Lord (Yahweh), see verse 26.]
