Genesis 5:28-32

New International Reader's Version

²⁸ Lamech lived 182 years. Then he had a son ²⁹ and named him Noah. Lamech said, “He will comfort us when we are working. He’ll comfort us when our hands work so hard they hurt. We have to work hard because the Lord put a curse on the ground.” ³⁰ Lamech lived 595 years after Noah was born. He also had other sons and daughters. ³¹ Lamech lived a total of 777 years. And then he died.

³² After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham and Japheth.
