How did the first murder in the bible affect the attitude of the second murder in the Bible?

After Cain killed Abel (the first murder in the Bible), he was very afraid that other people would kill him because of what he had done. To protect him, God marked Cain and said that if anyone killed him, that person would be repaid seven times over. The second murder in the Bible was committed by Lamech, a descendant of Cain. Lamech had apparently heard about the mark that was put on his ancestor, and Lamech (not God) told his wives that "if Cain is avenged sevenfold, then Lamech seventy-sevenfold." Thus, the protection given to Cain because of his fear of the consequences of his wickedness inspired Lamech to boast about his own. == ==
