| 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. |

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. |

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. |
