Genesis 5:25 — compare Bible translations

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

5.25 Vixit quoque Mathusala, etc. AUG. Quæritur quomodo Mathusala secundum annorum computationem post diluvium vivere potuerit, cum omnes, præter eos qui in arcam ingressi sunt, perierunt. Sed hanc quæstionem codicum mendositas peperit: non solum enim in Hebræis aliter invenitur, verum etiam in LXX interpretatione, paucis codicibus septem annis ante diluvium Mathusala defunctus reperitur. Quod Mathusala juxta LXX ultra diluvium numerantur anni, inde est quia significat Christum, cujus vita nullam sentit ætatem, ut in majoribus quoque non sensisse diluvium videretur.

But this question of_books mendositas gave_birth: not/no only because in/into/on Hebrews otherwise is_found, true also in/into/on LXX interpretation, in_a_few codes seven years before flood Mathusala deceased is_found.
