1 Esta é uma lista de alguns dos descendentes de Adão. Deus criou o homem e fê-lo semelhante ao próprio Deus. 2 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 reconheceu como semelhante a si próprio em tudo. 4 Depois desse nascimento, Adão viveu ainda mais 800 anos, e teve filhos e filhas, 5 morrendo com a idade de 930 anos.

6 Sete tinha 105 anos, quando lhe nasceu Enos. 7 Depois viveu mais 807 anos, tendo tido filhos e filhas, 8 morrendo com a idade de 912 anos.

9 Enos contava 90 anos, quando nasceu Quenã, seu filho. 10 E viveu mais 815 anos, tendo filhos e filhas; 11 morreu aos 905 anos.

12 Quenã contava 70 anos, quando do nascimento de Malaliel, seu filho. 13 Depois viveu mais 840 anos, tendo-lhe nascido filhos e filhas. 14 Ao todo, viveu 910 anos e morreu.

15 Malaliel tinha 65 anos, quando Jarede nasceu. 16 Viveu ainda 830 anos, tendo tido e filhas. 17 Quando morreu contava 895 anos.

18 Jarede viveu 162 anos e teve Enoque. 19 Depois disso, viveu 800 anos, durante os quais teve filhos e filhas. 20 Ao todo, viveu 962 anos e morreu.

21 Enoque tinha 65 anos, quando lhe nasceu Metusalém. 22 E os 300 anos que viveu depois passou-os em comunhão com Deus. E teve filhos e filhas. 23 Então, quando contava 365 anos de uma vida 24 de andar sempre em comunhão com Deus, desapareceu, porque Deus o levou.

25 Metusalém tinha 187 anos, quando lhe nasceu Lameque. 26 Durante os 782 anos que viveu ainda, gerou mais filhos e filhas, 27 vindo a morrer com 969 anos.

28 Lameque tinha 182 anos quando lhe nasceu um filho, 29 a que chamou Noé porque, disse ele: "Este há de trazer-nos descanso para o duro trabalho da terra que o Senhor amaldiçoou." 30 Lameque viveu mais 595 anos e teve mais filhos e filhas. 31 Ao todo, foram 777 os anos de vida que teve e morreu.

32 Noé, aos 500 anos, tinha tido três filhos: Sem, Cam e Jafete.
