Genesis 5
The passage describes the lineage of Adam, listing the descendants from Adam to Noah, including their ages at the time of the birth of their sons and the total number of years they lived. Each descendant is mentioned along with the years they lived after the birth of their son, and the total years of their life. Enoch is noted for walking with God and being taken by God without dying. The passage concludes with Lamech's son Noah, who is born when Lamech is 182 years old, and Noah's sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth are born when Noah is 500 years old.

And then he conceived a son in his own image and likeness, and he called his name Seth4And after he conceived Seth, the days of Adam that passed were eight hundred years. And he conceived sons and daughters5And all the time that passed while Adam lived was nine hundred and thirty years, and then he died6Seth likewise lived for one hundred and five years, and then he conceived Enos7And after he conceived Enos, Seth lived for eight hundred and seven years, and he conceived sons and daughters8And all the days of Seth that passed were nine hundred and twelve years, and then he died9In truth, Enos lived ninety years, and then he conceived Cainan10After his birth, he lived eight hundred and fifteen years, and he conceived sons and daughters11And all the days of Enos that passed were nine hundred and five years, and then he died12Likewise, Cainan lived seventy years, and then he conceived Mahalalel13And after he conceived Mahalalel, Cainan lived for eight hundred and forty years, and he conceived sons and daughters14And all the days of Cainan that passed were nine hundred and ten years, and then he died15And Mahalalel lived sixty-five years, and then he conceived Jared16And after he conceived Jared, Mahalalel lived for eight hundred and thirty years, and he conceived sons and daughters17And all the days of Mahalalel that passed were eight hundred and ninety-five years, and then he died18And Jared lived for one hundred and sixty-two years, and then he conceived Enoch19And after he conceived Enoch, Jared lived for eight hundred years, and he conceived sons and daughters20And all the days of Jared that passed were nine hundred and sixty-two years, and then he died21Now Enoch lived for sixty-five years, and then he conceived Methuselah22And Enoch walked with God. And after he conceived Methuselah, he lived for three hundred years, and he conceived sons and daughters23And all the days of Enoch that passed were three hundred and sixty-five years24And he walked with God, and then he was seen no more, because God took him25Likewise, Methuselah lived for one hundred and eighty-seven years, and then he conceived Lamech26And after he conceived Lamech, Methuselah lived for seven hundred and eighty-two years, and he conceived sons and daughters27And all the days of Methuselah that passed were nine hundred and sixty-nine years, and then he died28Then Lamech lived for one hundred and eighty-two years, and he conceived a son29And he called his name Noah, saying, "This one will console us from the works and hardships of our hands, in the land that the Lord has cursed.30And after he conceived Noah, Lamech lived for five hundred and ninety-five years, and he conceived sons and daughters31And all the days of Lamech that passed were seven hundred and seventy-seven years, and then he died.32In truth, when Noah was five hundred years old, he conceived Shem, Ham, and Japheth
