Genesis 5

1 This is the [1]genealogy of men in the day in which God made Adam; in the image of God he made him: 2 [2]male and female he made them, and blessed them; and he called [3]his name Adam, in the day in which he made them. 3 And Adam lived two hundred and thirty years, and begat a son after his own form, and after his own image, and he called his name Seth. 4 And the days of Adam, which he lived after his begetting Seth, were seven hundred years; and he begat sons and daughters. 5 And all the days of Adam which he lived were nine hundred and thirty years, and he died. 6 Now Seth lived two hundred and five years, and begat Enos. 7 And Seth lived after his begetting Enos, seven hundred and seven years, and he begat sons and daughters. 8 And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years, and he died. 9 And Enos lived a hundred and ninety years, and begat Cainan. 10 And Enos lived after his begetting Cainan, seven hundred and fifteen years, and he begat sons and daughters. 11 And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years, and he died. 12 And Cainan lived a hundred and seventy years, and he begat Maleleel. 13 And Cainan lived after his begetting Maleleel, seven hundred and forty years, and he begat sons and daughters. 14 And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years, and he died.

15 And Maleleel lived a hundred and sixty and five years, and he begat Jared. 16 And Maleleel lived after his begetting Jared, seven hundred and thirty years, and he begat sons and daughters. 17 And all the days of Maleleel were eight hundred and ninety and five years, and he died. 18 And Jared lived a hundred and sixty and two years, and begat Enoch: 19 and Jared lived after his begetting Enoch, eight hundred years, and he begat sons and daughters. 20 And all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty and two years, and he died. 21 And Enoch lived a hundred and sixty and five years, and begat Mathusalah. 22 And Enoch was well pleasing to God after his begetting Mathusalah, two hundred years, and he begat sons and daughters. 23 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty and five years. 24 And Enoch was well pleasing to God, and was not found, because God translated him. 25 And Mathusalah lived [4]a hundred and sixty and seven years, and begat Lamech. 26 And Mathusalah lived after his begetting Lamech [5]eight hundred and two years, and begat sons and daughters. 27 And all the days of Mathusalah which he lived, were nine hundred and sixty and nine years, and he died. 28 And Lamech lived a hundred and eighty and eight years, and begat a son. 29 And he called his name Noah, saying, This one will cause us to cease from our works, and from the toils of our hands, and from the earth, which the Lord God hath cursed. 30 And Lamech lived after his begetting Noah, five hundred and sixty and five years, and begat sons and daughters. 31 And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred and fifty-three years, and he died. 32 And Noah was five hundred years old, and he begat three sons, Sem, [6]Ham, and Japheth.
