¹ This is the book of Adam's generations. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him.

² Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

³ And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begot [a son] in his likeness, after his image, and called his name Seth.

⁴ And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years; and he begot sons and daughters.

⁵ And all the days of Adam that he lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died.

⁶ And Seth lived a hundred and five years, and begot Enosh.

⁷ And Seth lived after he had begotten Enosh eight hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters.

⁸ And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years; and he died.

⁹ And Enosh lived ninety years, and begot Cainan.

¹² And Cainan lived seventy years, and begot Mahalaleel.

¹³ And Cainan lived after he had begotten Mahalaleel eight hundred and forty years, and begot sons and daughters.

¹⁴ And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years; and he died.

¹⁵ And Mahalaleel lived sixty-five years, and begot Jared.

²² And Enoch walked with God after he had begotten Methushelah three hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.

²³ And 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 And Methushelah lived a hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lemech.

²⁶ And Methushelah lived after he had begotten Lemech seven hundred and eighty-two years, and begot sons and daughters.

²⁷ And all the days of Methushelah were nine hundred and sixty-nine years; and he died.

²⁸ And Lemech lived a hundred and eighty-two years, and begot a son.

²⁹ And he called his name Noah, saying, This [one] shall comfort us concerning our work and concerning the toil of our hands, because of the ground which Jehovah has cursed.

³⁰ And Lemech lived after he had begotten Noah five hundred and ninety-five years, and begot sons and daughters.

³¹ And all the days of Lemech 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.

¹ It happened, when men began to multiply on the surface of the ground, and daughters were born to them,

² that God's sons saw that men's daughters were beautiful, and they took for themselves wives of all that they chose.

³ Yahweh said, "My Spirit will not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh; yet will his days be one hundred twenty years."

⁴ The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when God's sons came in to men's daughters. They bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

⁵ Yahweh saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

⁶ Yahweh was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart.

⁷ Yahweh said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the surface of the ground; man, along with animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky; for I am sorry that I have made them."

⁸ But Noah found favor in Yahweh's eyes.

⁹ This is the history of the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time. Noah walked with God.

¹⁰ Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

¹¹ The earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.

¹² God saw the earth, and saw that it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.

¹³ God said to Noah, "The end of all flesh has come before me, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

¹⁴ Make a ship of gopher wood. You shall make rooms in the ship, and shall seal it inside and outside with pitch.

¹⁵ This is how you shall make it. The length of the ship will be three hundred cubits, its breadth fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.

¹⁶ You shall make a roof in the ship, and you shall finish it to a cubit upward. You shall set the door of the ship in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third levels.

¹⁷ I, even I, do bring the flood of waters on this earth, to destroy all flesh having the breath of life from under the sky. Everything that is in the earth will die.

¹⁸ But I will establish my covenant with you. You shall come into the ship, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you.

¹⁹ Of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ship, to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.

²⁰ Of the birds after their kind, of the livestock after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort shall come to you, to keep them alive.

²¹ Take with you of all food that is eaten, and gather it to yourself; and it will be for food for you, and for them."

²² Thus Noah did. According to all that God commanded him, so he did.
