1 Now these are the generations of Esau--the same 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, the daughter
of Zibeon the Hivite,
3 and Basemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebaioth.
4 And Adah bore to Esau Eliphaz; and Basemath bore Reuel;
5 and Oholibamah bore Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah. These are
the sons of Esau, that were born unto him in the land of Canaan.
6 And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters,
and all the souls of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his
possessions, which he had gathered in the land of Canaan; and went into a land
away from his brother Jacob.
7 For their substance was too great for them to dwell
together; and the land of their sojournings could not bear them because of their
cattle.
8 And Esau dwelt in the mountain-land of Seir--Esau is Edom.
9 And these are the generations of Esau the father of a the

19 These are the sons of Esau, and these are their chiefs;
the same is Edom.
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 that

22 And the children of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and Lotan's
sister was Timna.
23 And these are the children of Shobal: Alvan and Manahath

30 the chief of Dishon, the chief of Ezer, the chief of
Dishan. These are the chiefs that came of the Horites, according to their chiefs
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
