Genesis 36:1-9

1And these are the generationsH8435 of EsauH6215, that is EdomH123.

2EsauH6215 tookH3947 his wivesH802 of the daughtersH1323 of CanaanH3667: AdahH5711 the daughterH1323 of ElonH356 the HittiteH2850, and OholibamahH173 the daughterH1323 of AnahH6034, daughterH1323 of ZibeonH6649 the HiviteH2340,

3and Basmath Ishmael's daughterH1323, the sisterH269 of NebaiothH5032.

4And AdahH5711 boreH3205 to EsauH6215 EliphazH464; and Basmath boreH3205 ReuelH7467.

5And OholibamahH173 boreH3205 Jeush and Jaalam and KorahH7141. These are the sonsH1121 of EsauH6215 that were bornH3205 to him in the landH776 of CanaanH3667.

6And EsauH6215 tookH3947 his wivesH802, and his sonsH1121, and his daughtersH1323, and all the soulsH5315 of his houseH1004, and his cattleH929, and all his beasts, and all his possessions, that he had acquired in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, and went into a country awayH3947 from his brotherH251 JacobH3290.

7For their propertyH7399 wasH1961 too greatH7227 for them to dwellH3427 togetherH3162, and the landH776 where they wereH1961 sojourners could not bearH5375 them, because of their cattle.

8Thus EsauH6215 dweltH3427 in mount SeirH8165; EsauH6215 is EdomH123.

9And these are the generationsH8435 of EsauH6215, the fatherH1 of EdomH123, in mount SeirH8165.
