Genèse 36
1 Voici les générations d’Esaü; c’est le même qu’Edom.
(Here is/I will now give you) a list of the descendants of Esau, whose other name was Edom.
2 Esaü prit pour femmes d’entre les filles des Chananéens: Ada, fille d’Elon l’Hétéen, et Oolibama, fille d’Ana, fille elle-même de Sébéon l’Hévéen;
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;
3 Et aussi Bazemath, fille d’Ismaël, sœur de Nabaïoth.
and Basemath, who was the daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth.
4 Ada enfanta Eliphaz; Bazemath enfanta Rahuel;
Esau’s wife Adah gave birth to Eliphaz. Basemath gave birth to Reuel.
5 Oolibama enfanta Jéhus, Ihélon et Coré. Ce sont là les fils d’Esaü, qui lui naquirent dans la terre de Chanaan.
Oholibamah gave birth to Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. All these sons of Esau were born while he was living in the Canaan region.
6 Or Esaü prit ses femmes, ses fils, ses filles et toutes les âmes de sa maison, ses richesses, ses bestiaux et tout ce qu’il pouvait avoir dans la terre de Chanaan, et il s’en alla dans une autre contrée, et s’éloigna de son frère Jacob.
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.
7 Car ils étaient extrêmement riches, et ils ne pouvaient habiter ensemble; et la terre de leur pèlerinage ne leur suffisait pas, à cause de la multitude de leurs troupeaux.
8 Ainsi Esaü habita sur la montagne de Séir: Esaü est le même qu’Edom.
