2 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;

6 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.
Esau anatenga akazi ake, ana ake aamuna ndi aakazi ndi ena onse a pa banja pake. Anatenganso ziweto zake ndi ziweto zake zonse pamodzi ndi katundu wake yense amene anamupata ku Kanaani, ndipo anachoka ku dziko la Kanaani kupatukana ndi mʼbale wake Yakobo.
