5* This is the record of the line of Man. On the day that God created man, in the likeness of God he made them, 2 male and female he created them, and blessed them and named them Man [in Hebrew, Adam] on the day they were created. 3 And Man lived a hundred and thirty years and begot one in his own likeness, after his own image, and named him Sheth. 4 And Man’s time after he begot Sheth was eight hundred years, and he begot sons and daughters; 5 and all the time that Man lived was nine hundred and thirty years; and he died.
