35The sons of Esau: Eliphaz, Reuel, Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. 36The sons of Eliphaz: Teman, Omar, Zephi, Gatam, Kenaz, Timna, and Amalek. 37The sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. 38And the sons of Seir: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. 39And the sons of Lotan: Hori and Homam; and Lotan’s sister was Timna. 40The sons of Shobal: Alian, Manahath, Ebal, Shephi, and Onam. And the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah. 41The sons of Anah: Dishon. And the sons of Dishon: Hamran, Eshban, Ithran, and Cheran. 42The sons of Ezer: Bilhan, Zaavan, Jaakan. The sons of Dishon: Uz and Aran. 43And these are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king reigned over the sons of Israel: Bela the son of Beor, and the name of his city was Dinhabah. 44And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah from Bozrah reigned in his place. 45And Jobab died, and Husham from the land of the Temanites reigned in his place. 46And Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who struck Midian in the country of Moab, reigned in his place; and the name of his city was Avith. 47And Hadad died, and Samlah from Masrekah reigned in his place. 48And Samlah died, and Saul from Rehoboth on the River reigned in his place. 49And Saul died, and Baal-hanan the son of Achbor reigned in his place. 50And Baal-hanan died, and Hadad reigned in his place; and the name of his city was Pai, and the name of his wife was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Me-zahab. 51And Hadad died. And the chieftains of Edom were: the chieftain Timna, the chieftain Alvah, the chieftain Jetheth, 52the chieftain Oholibamah, the chieftain Elah, the chieftain Pinon, 53the chieftain Kenaz, the chieftain Teman, the chieftain Mibzar, 54the chieftain Magdiel, the chieftain Iram. These were the chieftains of Edom.
1These are the generations of Esau (that is, Edom). 2Esau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite, 3and Basemath, Ishmael’s daughter, sister of Nebaioth. 4Adah bore to Esau Eliphaz, and Basemath bore Reuel; 5and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These are the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan. 6Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the persons of his household, his livestock, all his animals, and all his property that he had acquired in the land of Canaan, and went to a land away from Jacob his brother. 7For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together, and the land where they resided as aliens could not support them because of their livestock. 8So Esau dwelt in the hill country of Seir; Esau is Edom. 9These are the generations of Esau, the father of Edom, in the hill country of Seir. 10These are the names of the sons of Esau: Eliphaz the son of Adah, the wife of Esau; Reuel the son of Basemath, the wife of Esau. 11The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. 12Timna was a concubine of Eliphaz, Esau’s son, and she bore to Eliphaz Amalek. These are the sons of Adah, Esau’s wife. 13These are the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the sons of Basemath, Esau’s wife. 14These were the sons of Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon, Esau’s wife: she bore to Esau Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. 15These are the chieftains of the sons of Esau. The sons of Eliphaz, Esau’s firstborn: the chieftain Teman, the chieftain Omar, the chieftain Zepho, the chieftain Kenaz, 16the chieftain Korah, the chieftain Gatam, the chieftain Amalek. These are the chieftains of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Adah. 17These are the sons of Reuel, Esau’s son: the chieftain Nahath, the chieftain Zerah, the chieftain Shammah, the chieftain Mizzah. These are the chieftains of Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Basemath, Esau’s wife. 18These are the sons of Oholibamah, Esau’s wife: the chieftain Jeush, the chieftain Jalam, the chieftain Korah. These are the chieftains of Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau’s wife. 19These are the sons of Esau, and these are their chieftains (that is, Edom). 20These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, 21Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. These are the chieftains of the Horites, the sons of Seir, in the land of Edom. 22The sons of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and Lotan’s sister was Timna. 23These are the sons of Shobal: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, and Onam. 24These are the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah. This is the Anah who found the springs in the wilderness while he was pasturing the donkeys of Zibeon his father.
