[1] Now this is the history of the generations of Esau (the same is Edom).
[2] Esau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah the daughter of
Elon, the Hittite; and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, the daughter of
Zibeon, the Hivite; [3] and Basemath, Ishmael`s daughter, sister of
Nebaioth. [4] Adah bore to Esau Eliphaz. Basemath bore Reuel. [5]
Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These are the sons of Esau, who
were born to him in the land of Canaan. [6] Esau took his wives, his sons,
his daughters, and all the members of his household, with his cattle, all
his animals, and all his possessions, which he had gathered in the land of
Canaan, and went into a land away from his brother Jacob. [7] For their
substance was too great for them to dwell together, and the land of their
travels couldn`t bear them because of their cattle. [8] Esau lived in the
hill country of Seir. Esau is Edom. [9] This is the history of the
generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in the hill country of Seir:
[10] these are the names of Esau`s sons: Eliphaz, the son of Adah, the wife
of Esau; and Reuel, the son of Basemath, the wife of Esau. [11] The sons of
Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz. [12] Timna was
concubine to Eliphaz, Esau`s son; and she bore to Eliphaz Amalek. These are
the sons of Adah, Esau`s wife. [13] These are the sons of Reuel: Nahath,
Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the sons of Basemath, Esau`s wife.
[14] These were the sons of Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the daughter
of Zibeon, Esau`s wife: she bore to Esau Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. [15]
These are the chiefs of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz the firstborn
of Esau: chief Teman, chief Omar, chief Zepho, chief Kenaz, [16] chief
Korah, chief Gatam, chief Amalek: these are the chiefs who came of Eliphaz
in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Adah. [17] These are the sons of
Reuel, Esau`s son: chief Nahath, chief Zerah, chief Shammah, chief Mizzah:
these are the chiefs who came of Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the
sons of Basemath, Esau`s wife. [18] These are the sons of Oholibamah,
Esau`s wife: chief Jeush, chief Jalam, chief Korah: these are the chiefs
who came of Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau`s wife. [19] These are
the sons of Esau, and these are their chiefs. The same is Edom. [20] These
are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan,
Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, [21] Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. These are the chiefs
who came of the Horites, the children of Seir in the land of Edom. [22] The
children of Lotan were Hori and Heman. Lotan`s sister was Timna. [23] These
are the children of Shobal: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, and Onam. [24]
These are the children of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah. This is Anah who found the
hot springs in the wilderness, as he fed the donkeys of Zibeon his father.
[25] These are the children of Anah: Dishon and Oholibamah, the daughter of
Anah. [26] These are the children of Dishon: Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and
Cheran. [27] These are the children of Ezer: Bilhan, Zaavan, and Akan. [28]
These are the children of Dishan: Uz and Aran. [29] These are the chiefs
who came of the Horites: chief Lotan, chief Shobal, chief Zibeon, chief
Anah, [30] chief Dishon, chief Ezer, and chief Dishan: these are the chiefs
who came of the Horites, according to their chiefs in the land of Seir.
[31] These are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom, before any king
reigned over the children of Israel. [32] Bela, the son of Beor, reigned in
Edom. The name of his city was Dinhabah. [33] Bela died, and Jobab, the son
of Zerah of Bozrah, reigned in his place. [34] Jobab died, and Husham of
the land of the Temanites reigned in his place. [35] Husham died, and
Hadad, the son of Bedad, who struck Midian in the field of Moab, reigned in
his place. The name of his city was Avith. [36] Hadad died, and Samlah of
Masrekah reigned in his place. [37] Samlah died, and Shaul of Rehoboth by
the river, reigned in his place. [38] Shaul died, and Baal-hanan, the son
of Achbor reigned in his place. [39] Baal-hanan the son of Achbor died, and
Hadar reigned in his place. The name of his city was Pau. His wife`s name
was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Me-zahab. [40] These
are the names of the chiefs who came from Esau, according to their
families, after their places, and by their names: chief Timna, chief Alvah,
chief Jetheth, [41] chief Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon, [42] chief
Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar, [43] chief Magdiel, and chief Iram. These
are the chiefs of Edom, according to their habitations in the land of their
possession. This is Esau, the father of the Edomites.
