Genesis 5:1-32 ICB

[1] This is the family history of Adam. When God created human beings, he made them in God's likeness. [2] He created them male and female. And on that day he blessed them and named them human beings. [3] When Adam was 130 years old, he became the father of another son. He was in the likeness and image of Adam. Adam named him Seth. [4] After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years. During that time he had other sons and daughters. [5] So Adam lived a total of 930 years. Then he died. [6] When Seth was 105 years old, he had a son named Enosh. [7] After Enosh was born, Seth lived 807 years. During that time he had other sons and daughters. [8] So Seth lived a total of 912 years. Then he died. [9] When Enosh was 90 years old, he had a son named Kenan. [10] After Kenan was born, Enosh lived 815 years. During that time he had other sons and daughters. [11] So Enosh lived a total of 905 years. Then he died. [12] When Kenan was 70 years old, he had a son named Mahalalel. [13] After Mahalalel was born, Kenan lived 840 years. During that time he had other sons and daughters. [14] So Kenan lived a total of 910 years. Then he died. [15] When Mahalalel was 65 years old, he had a son named Jared. [16] After Jared was born, Mahalalel lived 830 years. During that time he had other sons and daughters. [17] So Mahalalel lived a total of 895 years. Then he died. [18] When Jared was 162 years old, he had a son named Enoch. [19] After Enoch was born, Jared lived 800 years. During that time he had other sons and daughters. [20] So Jared lived a total of 962 years. Then he died. [21] When Enoch was 65 years old, he had a son named Methuselah. [22] After Methuselah was born, Enoch walked with God 300 years more. During that time he had other sons and daughters. [23] So Enoch lived a total of 365 years. [24] Enoch walked with God. One day Enoch could not be found, because God took him. [25] When Methuselah was 187 years old, he had a son named Lamech. [26] After Lamech was born, Methuselah lived 782 years. During that time he had other sons and daughters. [27] So Methuselah lived a total of 969 years. Then he died. [28] When Lamech was 182, he had a son. [29] Lamech named his son Noah. Lamech said, "Noah will comfort us from the pain of our work. The pain is because God has cursed the ground." [30] After Noah was born, Lamech lived 595 years. During that time he had other sons and daughters. [31] So Lamech lived a total of 777 years. Then he died. [32] After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham and Japheth.
