1And these are the generations of Esau (that is, Edom).
2Esau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah daughter of Anah, daughter of Zibeon the Hivite,
3and Basemath daughter of Ishmael, sister of Nebaioth.
4Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, and Basemath bore Reuel.
5And Oholibamah bore Jeush and Jalam and Korah. These are the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan.
6Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the persons of his household, his livestock, all his cattle, and all the property he had acquired in the land of Canaan, and he went to a land away from the face of his brother Jacob.
7For their possessions were too many for them to dwell together, and the land of their sojournings could not support them because of their livestock.
8So Esau settled in the hill country of Seir. Esau is Edom.
9And these 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 son of Adah, wife of Esau; Reuel son of Basemath, wife of Esau.
11And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz.
12And Timna was a concubine of Eliphaz son of Esau, and she bore Amalek to Eliphaz. These are the sons of Adah, wife of Esau.
13And these are the sons of Reuel: Nahath and Zerah, Shammah and Mizzah. These were the sons of Basemath, wife of Esau.
14And these were the sons of Oholibamah daughter of Anah, daughter of Zibeon, wife of Esau: she bore to Esau Jeush and Jalam and Korah.
15These are the chiefs of the sons of Esau. The sons of Eliphaz, the firstborn of Esau: chief Teman, chief Omar, chief Zepho, chief Kenaz,
16chief Korah, chief Gatam, chief Amalek. These are the chiefs of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Adah.
17And these are the sons of Reuel son of Esau: chief Nahath, chief Zerah, chief Shammah, chief Mizzah. These are the chiefs of Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Basemath, wife of Esau.
18And these are the sons of Oholibamah, wife of Esau: chief Jeush, chief Jalam, chief Korah. These are the chiefs of Oholibamah daughter of Anah, wife of Esau.
19These are the sons of Esau, and these are their chiefs. This is Edom.
20These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, and Anah,
21and Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. These are the chiefs of the Horites, the sons of Seir, in the land of Edom.
22And the sons of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and Lotan’s sister was Timna.
23And these are the sons of Shobal: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.
24And these are the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah. This is the Anah who found the hot springs in the wilderness while he was pasturing the donkeys of Zibeon his father.
25And these are the children of Anah: Dishon; and Oholibamah was the daughter of Anah.
26And these are the sons of Dishon: Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and Cheran.

28These are the sons of Dishan: Uz and Aran.

30chief Dishon, chief Ezer, chief Dishan. These are the chiefs of the Horites, according to their chieftains, in the land of Seir.
31These are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king reigned over the sons of Israel:
32Bela son of Beor reigned in Edom, and the name of his city was Dinhabah.
33Bela died, and Jobab son of Zerah from Bozrah reigned in his place.
34Jobab died, and Husham from the land of the Temanites reigned in his place.
35Husham died, and Hadad son of Bedad reigned in his place—the one who struck down Midian in the field of Moab—and the name of his city was Avith.
36Hadad died, and Samlah from Masrekah reigned in his place.
37Samlah died, and Shaul from Rehoboth-on-the-River reigned in his place.
38Shaul died, and Baal-hanan son of Achbor reigned in his place.
39Baal-hanan son of Achbor died, and Hadar reigned in his place; the name of his city was Pau, and the name of his wife was Mehetabel daughter of Matred, daughter of Me-zahab.

41chief Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon,
42chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar,
