1 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day when God made man, he made him in the image of God; | 1 זֶ֣ה סֵ֔פֶר תֹּולְדֹ֖ת אָדָ֑ם בְּיֹ֗ום בְּרֹ֤א אֱלֹהִים֙ אָדָ֔ם בִּדְמ֥וּת אֱלֹהִ֖ים עָשָׂ֥ה אֹתֹֽו׃ | |||
2 Male and female he made them, naming them Man, and giving them his blessing on the day when they were made. | 2 זָכָ֥ר וּנְקֵבָ֖ה בְּרָאָ֑ם וַיְבָ֣רֶךְ אֹתָ֗ם וַיִּקְרָ֤א אֶת־שְׁמָם֙ אָדָ֔ם בְּיֹ֖ום הִבָּֽרְאָֽם׃ | |||
3 Adam had been living for a hundred and thirty years when he had a son like himself, after his image, and gave him the name of Seth: | 3 וַֽיְחִ֣י אָדָ֗ם שְׁלֹשִׁ֤ים וּמְאַת֙ שָׁנָ֔ה וַיֹּ֥ולֶד בִּדְמוּתֹ֖ו כְּצַלְמֹ֑ו וַיִּקְרָ֥א אֶת־שְׁמֹ֖ו שֵֽׁת׃ | |||
4 And after the birth of Seth, Adam went on living for eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters: | 4 וַיִּֽהְי֣וּ יְמֵי־אָדָ֗ם אַֽחֲרֵי֙ הֹולִידֹ֣ו אֶת־שֵׁ֔ת שְׁמֹנֶ֥ה מֵאֹ֖ת שָׁנָ֑ה וַיֹּ֥ולֶד בָּנִ֖ים וּבָנֹֽות׃ | |||
5 And all the years of Adam's life were nine hundred and thirty: and he came to his end. | 5 וַיִּֽהְי֞וּ כָּל־יְמֵ֤י אָדָם֙ אֲשֶׁר־חַ֔י תְּשַׁ֤ע מֵאֹות֙ שָׁנָ֔ה וּשְׁלֹשִׁ֖ים שָׁנָ֑ה וַיָּמֹֽת׃ | |||
6 And Seth was a hundred and five years old when he became the father of Enosh: | 6 וַֽיְחִי־שֵׁ֕ת חָמֵ֥שׁ שָׁנִ֖ים וּמְאַ֣ת שָׁנָ֑ה וַיֹּ֖ולֶד אֶת־אֱנֹֽושׁ׃ | |||
7 And he went on living after the birth of Enosh for eight hundred and seven years, and had sons and daughters: | 7 וַֽיְחִי־שֵׁ֗ת אַֽחֲרֵי֙ הֹולִידֹ֣ו אֶת־אֱנֹ֔ושׁ שֶׁ֣בַע שָׁנִ֔ים וּשְׁמֹנֶ֥ה מֵאֹ֖ות שָׁנָ֑ה וַיֹּ֥ולֶד בָּנִ֖ים וּבָנֹֽות׃ | |||
8 And all the years of Seth's life were nine hundred and twelve: and he came to his end. | 8 וַיִּֽהְיוּ֙ כָּל־יְמֵי־שֵׁ֔ת שְׁתֵּ֤ים עֶשְׂרֵה֙ שָׁנָ֔ה וּתְשַׁ֥ע מֵאֹ֖ות שָׁנָ֑ה וַיָּמֹֽת׃ | |||

10 And after the birth of Kenan, Enosh went on living for eight hundred and fifteen years, and had sons and daughters: | 10 וַֽיְחִ֣י אֱנֹ֗ושׁ אַֽחֲרֵי֙ הֹולִידֹ֣ו אֶת־קֵינָ֔ן חֲמֵ֤שׁ עֶשְׂרֵה֙ שָׁנָ֔ה וּשְׁמֹנֶ֥ה מֵאֹ֖ות שָׁנָ֑ה וַיֹּ֥ולֶד בָּנִ֖ים וּבָנֹֽות׃ | |||

12 And Kenan was seventy years old when he became the father of Mahalalel: | 12 וַֽיְחִ֥י קֵינָ֖ן שִׁבְעִ֣ים שָׁנָ֑ה וַיֹּ֖ולֶד אֶת־מַֽהֲלַלְאֵֽל׃ | |||
13 And after the birth of Mahalalel, Kenan went on living for eight hundred and forty years, and had sons and daughters: | 13 וַיְחִ֣י קֵינָ֗ן אַחֲרֵי֙ הֹולִידֹ֣ו אֶת־מַֽהֲלַלְאֵ֔ל אַרְבָּעִ֣ים שָׁנָ֔ה וּשְׁמֹנֶ֥ה מֵאֹ֖ות שָׁנָ֑ה וַיֹּ֥ולֶד בָּנִ֖ים וּבָנֹֽות׃ | |||
14 And all the years of Kenan's life were nine hundred and ten; and he came to his end. | 14 וַיִּֽהְיוּ֙ כָּל־יְמֵ֣י קֵינָ֔ן עֶ֣שֶׂר שָׁנִ֔ים וּתְשַׁ֥ע מֵאֹ֖ות שָׁנָ֑ה וַיָּמֹֽת׃ | |||
15 And Mahalalel was sixty-five years old when he became the father of Jared: | 15 וַֽיְחִ֣י מַֽהֲלַלְאֵ֔ל חָמֵ֥שׁ שָׁנִ֖ים וְשִׁשִּׁ֣ים שָׁנָ֑ה וַיֹּ֖ולֶד אֶת־יָֽרֶד׃ | |||
16 And after the birth of Jared, Mahalalel went on living for eight hundred and thirty years, and had sons and daughters: | 16 וַֽיְחִ֣י מַֽהֲלַלְאֵ֗ל אַֽחֲרֵי֙ הֹולִידֹ֣ו אֶת־יֶ֔רֶד שְׁלֹשִׁ֣ים שָׁנָ֔ה וּשְׁמֹנֶ֥ה מֵאֹ֖ות שָׁנָ֑ה וַיֹּ֥ולֶד בָּנִ֖ים וּבָנֹֽות׃ | |||
