تكوين 36

١ 1 وَهَذَا سِجِلُّ مَوَالِيدِ عِيسُو أَيْ أَدُومَ:

(Here is/I will now give you) a list of the descendants of Esau, whose other name was Edom.

٢ 2 تَزَوَّجَ عِيسُو مِنْ بَنَاتِ كَنْعَانَ: عَدَا بِنْتَ إِيلُونَ الْحِثِّيِّ وَأُهُولِيبَامَةَ بِنْتَ عَنَى بِنْتِ صِبْعُونَ الْحِوِّيِّ.

Esau married three women from the Canaan region: Adah, the daughter of Elon from the Heth people-group; Oholibamah, who was the daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon from the Hiv people-group;

٣ 3 وَتَزَوَّجَ أَيْضاً بَسْمَةَ بِنْتَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَمِّهِ، أُخْتَ نَبَايُوتَ.

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

٤ 4 فَأَنْجَبَتْ عَدَا لِعِيسُو أَلِيفَازَ، وَأَنْجَبَتْ بَسْمَةُ رَعُوئِيلَ.

Esau’s wife Adah gave birth to Eliphaz. Basemath gave birth to Reuel.

٥ 5 أَمَّا أُهُولِيبَامَةُ فَقَدْ أَنْجَبَتْ يَعُوشَ وَيَعْلامَ وَقُورَحَ. هَؤُلاءِ هُمْ أَبْنَاءُ عِيسُو الَّذِينَ وُلِدُوا لَهُ فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ.

Oholibamah gave birth to Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. All these sons of Esau were born while he was living in the Canaan region.

٦ 6 وَأَخَذَ عِيسُو زَوْجَاتِهِ وَبَنِيهِ وَبَنَاتِهِ وَجَمِيعَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ وَمَوَاشِيهِ وَكُلَّ بَهَائِمِهِ وَسَائِرَ مُقْتَنَيَاتِهِ الَّتِي اقْتَنَاهَا فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ وَانْتَقَلَ إِلَى أَرْضٍ أُخْرَى بَعِيداً عَنْ أَخِيهِ يَعْقُوبَ،

Jacob and Esau had very many possessions. The result was that they needed more land for their livestock. The land where they were living was not big enough for both of them. They had too much livestock. So Esau, whose other name was Edom, had taken his wives and sons and daughters and all the other members of his household, his sheep and goats and his other animals, and all the other things he had obtained in Canaan land, and they had moved to an area that was away from Jacob.

٧ 7 لأَنَّ أَمْلاكَهُمَا كَانَتْ مِنَ الْكَثْرَةِ بِحَيْثُ لَمْ تَسَعْهُمَا الأَرْضُ لِلإِقَامَةِ مَعاً، وَلَمْ تَسْتَطِعْ أَرْضُ غُرْبَتِهِمَا أَنْ تَكْفِيَهُمَا لِرَعْيِ مَوَاشِيهِمَا.

٨ 8 فَاسْتَوْطَنَ عِيسُو، أَيْ أَدُومُ، جَبَلَ سَعِيرَ.

They went to live in the Seir hilly area.
