1 This is the scroll of the family history of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in God’s resemblance. 2 He created them male and female, and blessed them, and named them Mankind on the day they were created. 3 And Adam lived 130 years, and had a son in his own resemblance, according to his shape, and named him Shet. 4 The days of Adam after he had Shet were 800 years, and he had more sons and daughters. 5 All the days that Adam lived were 930 years, and he died.
