The First Book of Moses, Called
Genesis
CHAPTER 36. Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom.
2 Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah and the grand-daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;
3 And Basemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebaoth.
4 And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Basemath bare Reuel;
5 And Oholibamah bare Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah: these are the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of Canaan.
6 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 a country away from the face of his brother Jacob.
7 For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land wherein they were sojourners could not bear them because of their cattle.
8 Thus dwelt Esau in the hill country of Seir: Esau is Edom.
9 And these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in the hill country of Seir:
10 These are the names of Esau's sons; Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Basemath the wife of Esau.
11 And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz.
12 And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau's son; and she bare to Eliphaz Amalek: these were the sons of Adah Esau's wife.
13 And these are the sons of Reuel; Nahath, and Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah: these were the sons of Basemath Esau's wife.
14 And these were the sons of Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah and the grand-daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife: and she bare to Esau Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah.
15 These were chiefs of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz the firstborn son of Esau; chief Teman, chief Omar, chief Zepho, chief Kenaz,
16 Chief Korah, chief Gatam, and chief Amalek: these are the chiefs that came of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these were the sons of Adah.
17 And these are the sons of Reuel Esau's son; chief Nahath, chief Zerah, chief Shammah, chief Mizzah: these are the chiefs that came of Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Basemath Esau's wife.
18 And these are the sons of Oholibamah Esau's wife; chief Jeush, chief Jalam, chief Korah: these were the chiefs that came of Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau's wife.
19 These are the sons of Esau, who is Edom, and these are their chiefs.
20 These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land; Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and Anah,
21 And Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan: these are the chiefs of the Horites, the sons of Seir in the land of Edom.
22 And the sons of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and Lotan's sister was Timna.
23 And the sons of Shobal were these; Alvan, and Manahath, and Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.
24 And these are the sons of Zibeon; both Aiah, and Anah: this was that Anah that found the hot springs in the wilderness, as he fed the asses of Zibeon his father.
25 And the children of Anah were these; Dishon, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah.
26 And these are the sons of Dishon; Hemdan, and Eshban, and Ithran, and Cheran.
27 The sons of Ezer are these; Bilhan, and Zaavan, and Akan.
28 The sons of Dishan are these; Uz, and Aran.
29 These are the chiefs that came of the Horites; chief Lotan, chief Shobal, chief Zibeon, chief Anah,
30 Chief Dishon, chief Ezer, chief Dishan: these are the chiefs that came of Hori, according to their clans in the land of Seir.
31 And these are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel.
32 And Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom: and the name of his city was Dinhabah.
33 And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah reigned in his stead.
34 And Jobab died, and Husham of the land of the Temanites reigned in his stead.
35 And Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who defeated Midian in the field of Moab, reigned in his stead: and the name of his city was Avith.
36 And Hadad died, and Samlah of Masrekah reigned in his stead.
37 And Samlah died, and Shaul of Rehoboth by the Euphrates river reigned in his stead.
38 And Shaul died, and Baalhanan the son of Achbor reigned in his stead.
39 And Baalhanan the son of Achbor died, and Hadar reigned in his stead: and the name of his city was Pau; and his wife's name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Mezahab.
40 And these are the names of the chiefs that came of Esau, according to their families, after their dwelling places, by their names; chief Timnah, chief Alvah, chief Jetheth,
41 Chief Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon,
42 Chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar,
43 Chief Magdiel, chief Iram: these be the chiefs of Edom, according to their habitations in the land of their possession: this is Esau the father of the Edomites.
