νέσθαι Βῆλον, ὃν εἶναι Κρόνον· ἐκ τούτου δὲ γενέσθαι d Βῆλον καὶ Χαναὰν, τοῦτον δὲ τὸν Χαναὰν γεννῆσαι τὸν πατέρα τῶν Φοινίκων, τούτου δὲ Χοὺμ υἱὸν γενέσθαι , ὃν ὑπὸ τῶν Ἑλλήνων λέγεσθαι Ἄσβολον, πατέρα δὲ Αἰθιόπων, ἀδελφὸν δὲ τοῦ Με-στάεὶμ,
στραεὶμ, πατέρα Αἰγυπτίων· Ἓλληνας δὲ λέγειν τὸν Ἄτλαντα εὑρηκέναι ἀστρολογίαν· εἶναι δὲ τὸν Ἄτλαντα τὸν αὐτὸν καὶ Ἑνώχ · τοῦ δὲ Ἑνὼχ γενέ- σθαι υἱὸν Μαθουσάλαν, ὃν πάντα δι’ ἀγγέλων θεοῦ γνῶναι, καὶ ἡμὰς οὕτως ἐπιγνῶναι.’’
