| 1These are the generations of Esau (that is, Edom). | 1Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom. |
| 2Esau took his wives from the Canaanites: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, Oholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite, | 2Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite; |
| 3and Basemath, Ishmael’s daughter, the sister of Nebaioth. | 3And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth. |
| 4And Adah bore to Esau, Eliphaz; Basemath bore Reuel; | 4And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare Reuel; |
| 5and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These are the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan. | 5And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these are the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of Canaan. |
| 6Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the members of his household, his livestock, all his beasts, and all his property that he had acquired in the land of Canaan. He went into a land away from his brother Jacob. | 6And 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 the country from the face of his brother Jacob. |
| 7For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together. The land of their sojournings could not support them because of their livestock. | 7For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land wherein they were strangers could not bear them because of their cattle. |
| 8So Esau settled in the hill country of Seir. (Esau is Edom.) | 8Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom. |
| 9These are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in the hill country of Seir. | 9And these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in mount Seir: |
