Genesis 5.24 |
kai euhresthsen Enwc tw qew:
|
Pistei Enwc meteteqh tou mh idein qanaton,
|
And Enoch was well-pleasing to God, and was not found,
because God translated him
|
By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and he was not found, because God translated him |
And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him |
Comments: The MT says that Enoch was not, not that he could not be found. It also includes the idea of a “taking” rather than a “translation.” |
