The Septuagint 
Adam, the first man, became the father of Seth when he was 230 years old, and lived for another 700 years, until the 135th year of Mahalalel. 
Seth became the father of Enosh when he was 205 years old, and lived for another 707 years, until the 20th year of Enoch. 
Enosh became the father of Kenan when he was 190 years old, and lived for another 715 years, until the 53rd year of Methuselah. 
Kenan became the father of Mahalalel when he was 170 years old, and lived for another 740 years, until the 81st year of Lamech. 
Mahalalel became the father of Jared when he was 165 years old, and lived for another 730 years, until the 48th year of Noah. 
Jared became the father of Enoch when he was 162 years old, and lived for another 800 years, until the 280th year of Noah. 
Enoch became the father of Methuselah when he was 165 years old, and lived for another 200 years, until he was taken away in the 33rd year of Lamech. 
Methuselah became the father of Lamech when he was 167 years old, and lived for another 802 years.  The number of years assigned to Methuselah [by the Septuagint] suggests that he survived for (?) 22 years after the time of the flood; but we know that in some copies of the text, it is stated that he lived for another 782 years [after the birth of Lamech], and died at the time of the flood. 
(81) Lamech became the father of Noah when he was 188 years old, and lived for another 535 years.  Lamech died before his father Methuselah, in the 535th year of Noah. 
Noah became the father of Shem, Ham and Japheth when he was 500 years old, 100 years before the time of the flood.  The flood occurred in the 600th year of Noah, and he lived for another 350 years after the flood, until the 83rd year of Eber. 
In total, 2,242 years, according to the Septuagint version.
