And Henoch lyved .lxv. yere ãd begat Mathusala. And Henoch walked wyth
god after he had begot Mathusala .iij. hundred yere/ and begat
sonnes and doughters. And all the dayes of Henoch were .iij. hundred
and .lxv. yere. and than Henoch lyved a godly lyfe/ and was nomore
sene/ for God toke hym away.
And Mathusala lyved an hundred and lxxxvij. yere and begat Lamech: and
Mathusala after he had begot Lamech/ lyved .vij. hundred and .lxxxij.
yere/ ãd begat sonnes and doughters. And all the dayes of Methusala
were .ix. hundred .lxix yere/ and than he dyed.
And Lamech lyved an hundred .lxxxij. yere & begat a sonne and called
hym Noe sayng. This same shall comforte vs: as concernynge oure worke
and sorowe of oure handes which we haue aboute the erthe that the
LORde hath cursed. And Lamech lyved after he had begot Noe v. hundred/
nynetie and .v. yere/ and begat sonnes and doughters. And all the
dayes of Lamech were .vij. hundred .lxxvij. yere/ and than he dyed.

¶ The .vj. Chapter.
And it came to passe/ whã men begã to multiplye apõ the erth ãd had
begot them doughters/ the sonnes of God sawe the doughters of men that
they were fayre/ and toke vnto them wyves/ which they best liked amõge
thẽ all. And the LORd sayd: My spirite shall not all waye stryve withe
man/ for they are flesh. Nevertheles I wyll geue them yet space/ and
hundred and .xx. yeres
There were tirantes in the world in thos dayes. For after that the
children of God had gone in vnto the doughters of men and had begotten
them childern/ the same childern were the mightiest of the world and
men of renowne And whan the LORde sawe y^t the wekednesse of man was
encreased apon the erth/ and that all the ymaginacion and toughtes of
his hert was only evell continually/ he repented that he had made man
apon the erth and sorowed in his hert. And sayd: I wyll destroy
mankynde which I haue made/ frõ of the face of the erth: both man/
beast/ worme and foule of the ayre/ for it repẽteth me that I haue
made them. But yet Noe found grace in the syghte of the LORde.
These are the generatiõs of Noe. Noe was a righteous man and
vncorrupte in his tyme/ & walked wyth god. And Noe begat .iij. sonnes:
Sem/ Ham and Iapheth And the erth was corrupte in the syghte of god
and was full of mischefe. And God loked vpon the erth/ ãd loo it was
corrupte: for all flesh had corrupte his way vppon the erth.
Than sayd God to Noe: the end of all flesh is come before me/ for the
erth is full of there myschefe. And loo/ I wyll destroy them with the
erth. Make the an arcke of pyne tree/ and make chaumbers in the arcke/
and pytch it wythin and wythout wyth pytch. And of this facion shalt
thou make it.
