18And Jared lived an hundred sixty and two years, and he begat Enoch:
19And Jared lived after he begat Enoch eight hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:
20And all the days of Jared were nine hundred sixty and two years: and he died.
21And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah:
22And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:
23And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years:
24And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.
Genesis 5:18-24

37Which was the son of Mathusala, which was the son of Enoch, which was the son of Jared, which was the son of Maleleel, which was the son of Cainan,
Luke 3:37

5By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
Hebrews 11:5

13Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
14And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
15To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
Jude 13-15

Here are all the verses in the Bible that include Seth’s descendent Enoch,
what happened to him? what does it mean that God took him?
 
Some believe that Enoch and Elijah will be the two witnesses in Revelation 11:3-12
3 And I will grant my two witnesses power to prophesy for one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth." 4* These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands which stand before the Lord of the earth. 5* And if any one would harm them, fire pours out from their mouth and consumes their foes; if any one would harm them, thus he is doomed to be killed. 6* They have power to shut the sky, that no rain may fall during the days of their prophesying, and they have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to smite the earth with every plague, as often as they desire. 7* And when they have finished their testimony, the beast that ascends from the bottomless pit will make war upon them and conquer them and kill them, 8* and their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city which is allegorically * called Sodom and Egypt, where their Lord was crucified. 9 For three days and a half men from the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations gaze at their dead bodies and refuse to let them be placed in a tomb, 10 and those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and make merry and exchange presents, because these two prophets had been a torment to those who dwell on the earth. 11* But after the three and a half days a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood up on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. 12* Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up hither!” And in the sight of their foes they went up to heaven in a cloud.
since neither has yet died.

You might be interested in reading the Book of Enoch, which is quoted in the Jude passage above. It’s part of the biblical canon in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.
 
God took him bodily into Heaven–that’s why there was ‘no more’ of him on earth.
God did the same for Elijah, and something similar for Our Lady.
