Mwanzo 36
1 Hivi ndivyo vizazi vya Esau (yaani Edomu).
Now these are the generations of Esau, who 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 of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;
3 pia akaoa Basemathi binti wa Ishmaeli, dada yake Nebayothi.
And Bashemath Ishmael’s daughter, sister of Nebajoth.
4 Ada akamzalia Esau Elifazi, Basemathi akamzaa Reueli,
And Adah bore to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bore Reuel;
5 Oholibama akamzaa Yeushi, Yalamu na Kora. Hawa ndio wana wa Esau waliozaliwa kwake huko Kanaani.
And Aholibamah bore Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these are the sons of Esau, which 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.
And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother Jacob.
7 Mali zao zilikuwa nyingi sana kiasi kwamba haikuwa rahisi wao kuishi pamoja, nchi waliyokuwa wakiishi isingewatosha wote kwa ajili ya mifugo yao.
For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land wherein they were strangers could not bear them because of their cattle.
8 Kwa hiyo Esau (ambaye ni Edomu) aliishi katika nchi ya kilima huko Seiri.
Thus dwelled Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

And these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in mount Seir:
