29 And he called his name †Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and itoil of our hands, because of the ground kwhich the Lord hath cursed. 30 And Lamech lived after he begat Noah five hundred ninety and five years, and begat sons and daughters: 31 And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years: and he died. 32 And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat Shem, Ham, and lJapheth.

6 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they atook them wives of all which they chose. 3 And the Lord said, bMy spirit shall not always strive with man, cfor that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. 4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. 5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that ||every dimagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil †continually. 6 And eit repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it fgrieved him at his heart. 7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; †both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. 8 But Noah gfound grace in the eyes of the Lord.

9 These are the generations of Noah: hNoah was a just man and ||perfect in his generations, and Noah iwalked with God.
