The Generations from Adam to Noah
1 This is the record of the descendants of Adam. When the Lord God created man, in the likeness of Elohim He made him; 2 male and female He created them; and He blessed them, and named them Human, when they were created. 3 And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and fathered a son in his likeness, like himself, and he named him Seth. 4 And the days of Adam after he had fathered Seth were eight hundred years, and he fathered sons and daughters. 5 And all the days of Adam which he lived were nine hundred and thirty years, and he died. 6 And Seth lived a hundred and five years, and fathered Enosh. 7 And Seth lived after he had fathered Enosh eight hundred and seven years, and fathered sons and daughters. 8 And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years, and he died. 9 And Enosh lived ninety years, and fathered Kenan. 10 And Enosh lived after he had fathered Kenan eight hundred and fifteen years, and fathered sons and daughters. 11 And all the days of Enosh were nine hundred and five years, and he died. 12 And Kenan lived seventy years, and fathered Mahalalel. 13 And Kenan lived after he had fathered Mahalalel eight hundred and forty years, and fathered sons and daughters. 14 And all the days of Kenan were nine hundred and ten years, and he died. 15 And Mahalalel lived sixty-five years, and fathered Jared. 16 And Mahalalel lived after he had fathered Jared eight hundred and thirty years, and fathered sons and daughters. 17 And all the days of Mahalalel were eight hundred and ninety-five years, and he died. 18 And Jared lived a hundred and sixty-two years, and fathered Enoch. 19 And Jared lived after he had fathered Enoch eight hundred years, and fathered sons and daughters. 20 And all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years, and he died. 21 And Enoch lived sixty-five years, and fathered Methuselah. 22 And Enoch lived in reverence for the Lord, after he had fathered Methuselah, three hundred years, and fathered sons and daughters. 23 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. 24 And Enoch lived in reverence for the Lord; and he was no longer there; for the Lord took him and put him to death. 25 And Methuselah lived a hundred and eighty-seven years, and fathered Lamech. 26 And Methuselah lived after he had fathered Lamech seven hundred and eighty-two years, and fathered sons and daughters. 27 And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred and sixty-nine years, and he died. 28 And Lamech lived a hundred and eighty-two years, and fathered a son. 29 And he named him Noah, saying, This shall comfort us in our work and the labor of our hands on the earth which the Lord has cursed. 30 And Lamech lived, after he had fathered Noah, five hundred and ninety-five years, and fathered sons and daughters. 31 And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred and seventy-seven years, and he died. 32 And Noah was five hundred years old, and Noah fathered Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
