Genesis 36

1 And these [are] the generations of Esau, who [is] Edom.

Now these are the generations of Esau, that is to say, Edom.

2 Esau has taken his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah daughter of Anah, daughter of Zibeon the Hivite,

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,

3 and Bashemath daughter of Ishmael, sister of Nebajoth.

And Basemath, Ishmael's daughter, the sister of Nebaioth.

4 And Adah bears to Esau, Eliphaz; and Bashemath has borne Reuel;

Adah had a son Eliphaz; and Basemath was the mother of Reuel;

5 and Aholibamah has borne Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah. These [are] sons of Esau, who were born to him in the land of Canaan.

Oholibamah was the mother of Jeush, Jalam, and Korah; these are the sons of Esau, whose birth took place in the land of Canaan.

6 And Esau takes his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his livestock, and all his beasts, and all his substance which he has acquired in the land of Canaan, and goes into the country from the face of his brother Jacob;

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.

7 for their substance was more abundant than to dwell together, and the land of their sojournings was not able to bear them because of their livestock;

For their wealth was so great that the land was not wide enough for the two of them and all their cattle.

8 and Esau dwells in Mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

So Esau made his living-place in the hill-country of Seir (Esau is Edom).

9 And these [are] the generations of Esau, father of Edom, in Mount Seir.

And these are the generations of Esau, the father of the Edomites in the hill-country of Seir:
