< Genesis 36 >

1 Now these are the generations of Esau, that is to say, Edom.
Esau (ame si wogayɔna hã be Edom) la ƒe dzidzimeviwo yi ale:
2 Esau's wives were women of Canaan: Adah, the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite,
Esau ɖe Kanaan nyɔnu etɔ̃: Ada, Hititɔ Elon ƒe vi, Oholibama, Ana ƒe vi kple Hivitɔ Zibeon ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi kpakple
3 And Basemath, Ishmael's daughter, the sister of Nebaioth.
Basemat, Ismael ƒe vinyɔnu si nye Nebayɔt nɔvinyɔnu.
4 Adah had a son Eliphaz; and Basemath was the mother of Reuel;
Esau kple Ada dzi viŋutsu ɖeka si ŋkɔe nye Elifaz. Esau kple Basemat dzi viŋutsu si ŋkɔe nye Reuel.
5 Oholibamah was the mother of Jeush, Jalam, and Korah; these are the sons of Esau, whose birth took place in the land of Canaan.
Esau kple Oholibama dzi viŋutsu siwo ƒe ŋkɔwoe nye Yeus, Yalam kple Korah. Wodzi vi siawo katã na Esau le Kanaanyigba dzi.
6 Esau took his wives and his sons and his daughters, and all the people of his house, and his beasts and his cattle and all his goods which he had got together in the land of Canaan, and went into the land of Seir, away from his brother Jacob.
Esau kplɔ srɔ̃awo, viŋutsuwo kple vinyɔnuwo kpakple subɔla siwo le eƒe aƒe me, kple lãhawo kple kesinɔnu siwo katã wòkpɔ le Kanaanyigba dzi la, eye wòʋu le nɔvia Yakob gbɔ.
7 For their wealth was so great that the land was not wide enough for the two of them and all their cattle.
Woƒe nunɔamesiwo sɔ gbɔ ale gbegbe be womagate ŋu anɔ teƒe ɖeka o. Anyigba si dzi wole la megalolo na wo ame eveawo o le woƒe lãhawo ta.
8 So Esau made his living-place in the hill-country of Seir (Esau is Edom).
Ale Esau, ame si wogayɔna be Edom la yi ɖanɔ tonyigba dzi le Seir.
9 And these are the generations of Esau, the father of the Edomites in the hill-country of Seir:

Esau srɔ̃ Oholibama ƒe viŋutsuwo nye fia siawo: Yeus, Yalam kple Korah. Wodzɔ tso Esau srɔ̃ Oholibama, Ana ƒe vinyɔnu me.

31 And these are the kings who were ruling in the land of Edom before there was any king over the children of Israel.
Ame siwo ɖu fia le Edom hafi woɖo Israel fiaɖuƒe la gɔme anyi la woe nye:
