1. NOW THIS is the history of the descendants of Esau, that is, Edom.
2. Esau took his wives from the women of Canaan: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah daughter of Anah, the son of Zibeon the Hivite,
3. And Basemath, Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebaioth.
4. Adah bore to Esau, Eliphaz; Basemath bore Reuel;
5. And Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These are the sons of Esau born to him in Canaan.
6. Now Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the members of his household, his cattle, all his beasts, and all his possessions which he had obtained in the land of Canaan, and he went into a land away from his brother Jacob.
7. For their great flocks and herds and possessions [which they had collected] made it impossible for them to dwell together; the land in which they were strangers could not support them because of their livestock.
8. So Esau dwelt in the hill country of Seir; Esau is Edom.
9. And this is the history of the descendants 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, Esau's wife, and Reuel, the son of Basemath, Esau's wife.
