1These are the family records of Esau (that is, Edom).

2Esau took his wives from the Canaanite women: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, Oholibamah daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite, 3and Basemath daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth. 4Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, Basemath bore Reuel, 5and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These were Esau's sons, who were born to him in the land of Canaan.

6Esau took his wives, sons, daughters, and all the people of his household, as well as his herds, all his livestock, and all the property he had acquired in Canaan; he went to a land away from his brother Jacob. 7For their possessions were too many for them to live together, and because of their herds, the land where they stayed could not support them. 8So Esau (that is, Edom) lived in the mountains of Seir.

9These are the family records of Esau, father of the Edomites in the mountains of Seir. 10These are the names of Esau's sons: Eliphaz son of Esau's wife Adah, and Reuel son of Esau's wife Basemath. 11The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. 12Timna, a concubine of Esau's son Eliphaz, bore Amalek to Eliphaz. These were the sons of Esau's wife Adah. 13These are Reuel's sons: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the sons of Esau's wife Basemath. 14These are the sons of Esau's wife Oholibamah daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon: She bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah to Edom.

31These are the kings who ruled in the land of Edom before any king ruled over the Israelites: 32Bela son of Beor ruled in Edom; the name of his city was Dinhabah. 33When Bela died, Jobab son of Zerah from Bozrah became king in his place. 34When Jobab died, Husham from the land of the Temanites became king in his place. 35When Husham died, Hadad son of Bedad became king in his place. He defeated Midian in the field of Moab; the name of his city was Avith. 36When Hadad died, Samlah from Masrekah became king in his place. 37When Samlah died, Shaul from Rehoboth on the Euphrates River became king in his place. 38When Shaul died, Baal-hanan son of Achbor became king in his place. 39When Baal-hanan son of Achbor died, Hadar became king in his place. His city was Pau, and his wife's name was Mehetabel daughter of Matred daughter of Me-zahab.
