Genesis 5:18-32

Genesis 5:18-32 AMP

When Jared was a hundred and sixty-two years old, he became the father of Enoch. Jared lived eight hundred years after the birth of Enoch and had other sons and daughters. So Jared lived nine hundred and sixty-two years, and he died. When Enoch was sixty-five years old, he became the father of Methuselah. Enoch walked [in habitual fellowship] with God three hundred years after the birth of Methuselah and had other sons and daughters. So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. And [in reverent fear and obedience] Enoch walked with God; and he was not [found among men], because God took him [away to be home with Him]. [Heb 11:5] When Methuselah was a hundred and eighty-seven years old, he became the father of Lamech. Methuselah lived seven hundred and eighty-two years after the birth of Lamech and had other sons and daughters. So Methuselah lived nine hundred and sixty-nine years, and he died. When Lamech was a hundred and eighty-two years old, he became the father of a son. He named him Noah, saying, “This one shall bring us rest and comfort from our work and from the [dreadful] toil of our hands because of the ground which the LORD cursed.” Lamech lived five hundred and ninety-five years after the birth of Noah and had other sons and daughters. So all the days of Lamech were seven hundred and seventy-seven years, and he died. After Noah was five hundred years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
