What does "the same" refer to? The children?
If so, does "which were of old" mean "lived very long"?
Context:
6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

I think which were of old means that they lived a long time ago. The same in this sentence just means they, referring back to those described earlier in the sentence, that is, the children.
