Genesis 5:1-32 NKJV

[1] This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God. [2] He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created. [3] And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth. [4] After he begot Seth, the days of Adam were eight hundred years; and he had sons and daughters. [5] So all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died. [6] Seth lived one hundred and five years, and begot Enosh. [7] After he begot Enosh, Seth lived eight hundred and seven years, and had sons and daughters. [8] So all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years; and he died. [9] Enosh lived ninety years, and begot Cainan. [10] After he begot Cainan, Enosh lived eight hundred and fifteen years, and had sons and daughters. [11] So all the days of Enosh were nine hundred and five years; and he died. [12] Cainan lived seventy years, and begot Mahalalel. [13] After he begot Mahalalel, Cainan lived eight hundred and forty years, and had sons and daughters. [14] So all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years; and he died. [15] Mahalalel lived sixty-five years, and begot Jared. [16] After he begot Jared, Mahalalel lived eight hundred and thirty years, and had sons and daughters. [17] So all the days of Mahalalel were eight hundred and ninety-five years; and he died. [18] Jared lived one hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch. [19] After he begot Enoch, Jared lived eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters. [20] So all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years; and he died. [21] Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah. [22] After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and daughters. [23] So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. [24] And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him. [25] Methuselah lived one hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech. [26] After he begot Lamech, Methuselah lived seven hundred and eighty-two years, and had sons and daughters. [27] So all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred and sixty-nine years; and he died. [28] Lamech lived one hundred and eighty-two years, and had a son. [29] And he called his name Noah, saying, "This one will comfort us concerning our work and the toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD has cursed." [30] After he begot Noah, Lamech lived five hundred and ninety-five years, and had sons and daughters. [31] So 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 begot Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
