1 Aqui está uma lista de alguns dos descendentes de Adão. Deus criou o homem. E fê-lo semelhante a Deus. Criou um homem e uma mulher; e abençoou-os. A esta sua criação Deus chamou homem, desde esse dia.
3 Adão tinha 130 anos quando seu filho Sete nasceu, um filho que ele reconheceu como semelhante a si próprio em tudo. Depois desse nascimento Adão viveu ainda mais 800 anos, e teve filhos e filhas, morrendo com a idade de 930 anos.
6 Sete tinha 105 anos quando lhe nasceu Enos. Depois viveu mais 807 anos, tendo tido filhos e filhas, morrendo com a idade de 912 anos.
9 Enos contava 90 anos quando nasceu Quenã, seu filho. E viveu mais 815 anos, tendo filhos e filhas; morreu aos 905 anos.
12 Quenã contava 70 anos quando do nascimento de Mahalel, seu filho. Depois viveu mais 840 anos, tendo-lhe nascido filhos e filhas. Ao todo viveu 910 anos e morreu.
