1 Hivi ndivyo vizazi vya Esau (yaani Edomu).
This is the account of Esau (that is, Edom).
2 Esau akaoa wake kutoka miongoni mwa wanawake wa Kanaani: Ada binti wa Eloni Mhiti, Oholibama binti wa Ana, mjukuu wa kike wa Sibeoni Mhivi,
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,
3 pia akaoa Basemathi binti wa Ishmaeli, dada yake Nebayothi.
and Basemath daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth.
4 Ada akamzalia Esau Elifazi, Basemathi akamzaa Reueli,
And Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, Basemath gave birth to Reuel,
5 Oholibama akamzaa Yeushi, Yalamu na Kora. Hawa ndio wana wa Esau waliozaliwa kwake huko Kanaani.
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.
6 Esau akawachukua wake zake, watoto wake wa kiume na wa kike na wote wa nyumbani mwake, mifugo yake pamoja na wanyama wake wengine wote na mali yake yote ambayo alikuwa ameipata akiwa Kanaani, akahamia katika nchi iliyo mbali na Yakobo ndugu yake.
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.
