uW Translation Notes:
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-background
וַֽיְהִי֙
and=he/it_was
The events in Gen 6:1-2 started happening long before the events in 5:32, so the way your translation begins this verse should allow for that meaning and not begin with a sequence word like “Then,” which would have the wrong meaning here. Many translations omit the conjunction here. Do what is best in your language. Also, the phrase it happened introduces and emphasizes important background information which the following narrative builds on. It also creates suspense so that readers and listeners wonder what will happen next. Some translations leave this phrase out, but doing that loses some of the suspense. Do what is best in your language.
Note 2 topic: writing-background
כִּֽי
that/for/because/then/when
Alternate translation: [that as]
הָֽאָדָ֔ם
the=humankind
See how you translated mankind in Genesis [5:1-2](../5/1.md). Alternate translation: [human beings]
הֵחֵ֣ל & לָרֹ֖ב
he/it_began & to=increase_in_number
Alternate translation: [began to increase in number] or [began to be more numerous]
עַל־פְּנֵ֣י הָֽאֲדָמָ֑ה
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in face/surface_of the=soil
Alternate translation: [throughout the world]
וּבָנ֖וֹת יֻלְּד֥וּ לָהֶֽם
and=daughters they_were_born to/for=them
Alternate translation: [and they were having many daughters]
TSN
Tyndale Study Notes:
6:1-8 Human wickedness reached a climax, prompting God to send the flood to destroy all living things. A glimmer of hope appears in God’s favor toward Noah (6:8).
