The genealogy, age, and death of the Patriarchs, from Adam to Noe – Genesis, Chapter 5

[1] This is the book of the generation of Adam. In the day that God created man, he made him to the likeness of God. [2] He created them male and female; and blessed them: and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. [3] And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begot a son to his own image and likeness, and called his name Seth. [4] And the days of Adam, after he begot Seth, were eight hundred years: and he begot sons and daughters. [5] And all the time that Adam lived came to nine hundred and thirty years, and he died.

[6] Seth also lived a hundred and five years, and begot Enos. [7] And Seth lived after he begot Enos, eight hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters. [8] And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years, and he died. [9] And Enos lived ninety years, and begot Cainan. [10] After whose birth he lived eight hundred and fifteen years, and begot sons and daughters.

[11] And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years, and he died. [12] And Cainan lived seventy years, and begot Malaleel. [13] And Cainan lived after he begot Malaleel, eight hundred and forty years, and begot sons and daughters. [14] And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years, and he died. [15] And Malaleel lived sixty-five years, and begot Jared.

[16] And Malaleel lived after he begot Jared, eight hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters. [17] And all the days of Malaleel were eight hundred and ninety-five years, and he died. [18] And Jared lived a hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Henoch. [19] And Jared lived after he begot Henoch, eight hundred years, and begot sons and daughters. [20] And all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years, and he died.

[21] And Henoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Mathusala. [22] And Henoch walked with God: and lived after he begot Mathusala, three hundred years, and begot sons and daughters. [23] And all the days of Henoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. [24] And he walked with God, and was seen no more: because God took him. [25] And Mathusala lived a hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech.

[26] And Mathusala lived after he begot Lamech, seven hundred and eighty-two years, and begot sons and daughters. [27] And all the days of Mathusala were nine hundred and sixty-nine years, and he died. [28] And Lamech lived a hundred and eighty-two years, and begot a son. [29] And he called his name Noe, saying: This same shall comfort us from the works and labours of our hands on the earth, which the Lord hath cursed. [30] And Lamech lived after he begot Noe, five hundred and ninety-five years, and begot sons and daughters.

[31] And all the days of Lamech came to seven hundred and seventy-seven years, and he died. And Noe, when he was five hundred years old, begot Sem, Cham, and Japheth.
