The Descendants of Esau

And these are the generations of Esau — that is, Edom.

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,

and Basemath, the daughter of Ishmael, the sister of Nebaioth.

And Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, and Basemath bore Reuel,

and Oholibamah bore Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah. These are the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan.

And Esau took his wives and his sons and his daughters and all the souls of his house, and his livestock and all his animals and all his property that he had gathered in the land of Canaan, and he went to a land away from the face of Jacob his brother.

For their possessions were too many for them to live together, and the land of their sojournings could not bear them because of their livestock.

And Esau settled in the hill country of Seir — Esau, that is, Edom.

And these are the generations of Esau, the father of Edom, in the hill country of Seir.

These are the names of the sons of Esau: Eliphaz the son of Adah, Esau’s wife; Reuel the son of Basemath, Esau’s wife.

And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz.

And Timna was a concubine to Eliphaz, Esau’s son, and she bore Amalek to Eliphaz. These are the sons of Adah, Esau’s wife.

And these are the sons of Reuel: Nahath, and Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the sons of Basemath, Esau’s wife.

And these were the sons of Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon, Esau’s wife: she bore to Esau Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah.

These are the chiefs of the sons of Esau. The sons of Eliphaz, Esau’s firstborn: chief Teman, chief Omar, chief Zepho, chief Kenaz,

chief Korah, chief Gatam, chief Amalek. These are the chiefs of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Adah.

And these are the sons of Reuel, Esau’s son: chief Nahath, chief Zerah, chief Shammah, chief Mizzah. These are the chiefs of Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Basemath, Esau’s wife.

And these are the sons of Oholibamah, Esau’s wife: chief Jeush, chief Jalam, chief Korah. These are the chiefs of Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, Esau’s wife.

These are the sons of Esau — that is, Edom — and these are their chiefs.

The Descendants of Seir

These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and Anah,

and Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan. These are the chiefs of the Horite, the sons of Seir, in the land of Edom.

And the sons of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and Lotan’s sister was Timna.

And these are the sons of Shobal: Alvan, and Manahath, and Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.

And these are the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah — that is the Anah who found the hot springs in the wilderness as he pastured the donkeys of Zibeon his father.

And these are the children of Anah: Dishon, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah.

And these are the sons of Dishon: Hemdan, and Eshban, and Ithran, and Cheran.

These are the sons of Ezer: Bilhan, and Zaavan, and Akan.

These are the sons of Dishan: Uz and Aran.

These are the chiefs of the Horite: chief Lotan, chief Shobal, chief Zibeon, chief Anah,

chief Dishon, chief Ezer, chief Dishan. These are the chiefs of the Horite, chief by chief, in the land of Seir.

The Kings of Edom

And these are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom, before any king reigned over the sons of Israel.

Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom, and the name of his city was Dinhabah.

And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah, from Bozrah, reigned in his place.

And Jobab died, and Husham from the land of the Temanite reigned in his place.

And Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad — who struck Midian in the country of Moab — reigned in his place; and the name of his city was Avith.

And Hadad died, and Samlah from Masrekah reigned in his place.

And Samlah died, and Shaul from Rehoboth-on-the-River reigned in his place.

And Shaul died, and Baal-hanan the son of Achbor reigned in his place.

And Baal-hanan the son of Achbor died, and Hadar reigned in his place; and the name of his city was Pau, and the name of his wife was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Mezahab.

And these are the names of the chiefs of Esau, by their families, by their places, by their names: chief Timna, chief Alvah, chief Jetheth,

chief Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon,

chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar,

chief Magdiel, chief Iram. These are the chiefs of Edom, by their settlements in the land of their holding — that is Esau, the father of Edom.
