Genesis 36

1 This is the account of Esau (that is, Edom).

And these [are] the generations of Esau; this is Edom.

2 Esau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, Oholibamah daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite,

And Esau took to himself wives of the daughters of the Chananites; Ada, the daughter of Aelom the Chettite; and Olibema, daughter of Ana the son of Sebegon, the Evite;

3 and Basemath daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth.

and Basemath, daughter of Ismael, sister of Nabaioth.

4 And Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, Basemath gave birth to Reuel,

And Ada bore to him Eliphas; and Basemath bore Raguel.

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

And Olibema bore Jeus, and Jeglom, and Core; these [are] the sons of Esau, which were born to him in the land of Chanaan.

6 Later, Esau took his wives and sons and daughters and all the people of his household, along with his livestock, all his other animals, and all the property he had acquired in Canaan, and he moved to a land far away from his brother Jacob.

And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and all his possessions, and all his cattle, and all that he had got, and all things whatever he had acquired in the land of Chanaan; and Esau went forth from the land of Chanaan, from the face of his brother Jacob.

7 For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together; the land where they stayed could not support them because of their livestock.

For their substance was too great for them to dwell together; and the land of their sojourning could not bear them, because of the abundance of their possessions.
