Genesis 36:31-39

31These were the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king ruled over the Israelites:

32Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom; the name of his city was Dinhabah.

33When Bela died, Jobab the son of Zerah from Bozrah reigned in his place.

34When Jobab died, Husham from the land of the Temanites reigned in his place.

35When Husham died, Hadad the son of Bedad, who defeated the Midianites in the land of Moab, reigned in his place; the name of his city was Avith.

36When Hadad died, Samlah from Masrekah reigned in his place.

37When Samlah died, Shaul from Rehoboth by the River reigned in his place.

38When Shaul died, Baal-Hanan the son of Achbor reigned in his place.
