uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-background

וַֽ⁠יְהִי֙

and=he/it_was

The author is using And it happened to describe something that was ongoing. This provides the background for other events he will describe that began to happen during this time. Connect this clause to the story in a way that makes it clear in your language that this clause is describing something that was ongoing in the background. The events in Genesis [6:1–2](../06/01.md) started happening long before the events in [5:32](../05/32.md), so the way your translation begins this verse should allow for that meaning and not begin with a sequence word like “Then.”
