Esau’s Descendants
1 Now these are the generations of Esau, who is
Edom.
2 Esau 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;
3 And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth.
4 And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare
Reuel;
5 And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah:
these are the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the
land of Canaan.
6 And 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.
7 For 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.
8 Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.
9 And these are the generations of Esau the father of
the Edomites in mount Seir:
10 These are the names of Esau's sons; Eliphaz the son
of Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Bashemath the
wife of Esau.
11 And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, and
Gatam, and Kenaz.
12 And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau's son; and
she bare to Eliphaz Amalek: these were the sons of Adah
Esau's wife.
13 And these are the sons of Reuel; Nahath, and Zerah,
Shammah, and Mizzah: these were the sons of Bashemath Esau's
wife.
14 And these were the sons of Aholibamah, the daughter
of Anah the daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife: and she bare to
Esau Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah.
15 These were dukes of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz the firstborn son of Esau; duke Teman, duke Omar,
duke Zepho, duke Kenaz,
16 Duke Korah, duke Gatam, and duke Amalek: these are
the dukes that came of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these
were the sons of Adah.
17 And these are the sons of Reuel Esau's son; duke
Nahath, duke Zerah, duke Shammah, duke Mizzah: these are the
dukes that came of Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the
sons of Bashemath Esau's wife.
18 And these are the sons of Aholibamah Esau's wife;
duke Jeush, duke Jaalam, duke Korah: these were the dukes
that came of Aholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau's wife.
19 These are the sons of Esau, who is Edom, and these
are their dukes.
20 These are the sons of Seir the Horite, who inhabited
the land; Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and Anah,
21 And Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan: these are the dukes
of the Horites, the children of Seir in the land of Edom.
22 And the children of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and
Lotan's sister was Timna.
23 And the children of Shobal were these; Alvan, and
Manahath, and Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.
24 And these are the children of Zibeon; both Ajah, and
Anah: this was that Anah that found the mules in the
wilderness, as he fed the asses of Zibeon his father.
25 And the children of Anah were these; Dishon, and
Aholibamah the daughter of Anah.
26 And these are the children of Dishon; Hemdan, and
Eshban, and Ithran, and Cheran.
27 The children of Ezer are these; Bilhan, and Zaavan,
and Akan.
28 The children of Dishan are these; Uz, and Aran.
29 These are the dukes that came of the Horites; duke
Lotan, duke Shobal, duke Zibeon, duke Anah,
30 Duke Dishon, duke Ezer, duke Dishan: these are the
dukes that came of Hori, among their dukes in the land of
Seir.
The Rulers of Edom
31 And these are the kings that reigned in the
land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the
children of Israel.
32 And Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom: and the
name of his city was Dinhabah.
33 And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah
reigned in his stead.
34 And Jobab died, and Husham of the land of Temani
reigned in his stead.
35 And Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who
smote Midian in the field of Moab, reigned in his stead: and
the name of his city was Avith.
36 And Hadad died, and Samlah of Masrekah reigned in his
stead.
37 And Samlah died, and Saul of Rehoboth by the river
reigned in his stead.
38 And Saul died, and Baalhanan the son of Achbor
reigned in his stead.
39 And Baalhanan the son of Achbor died, and Hadar
reigned in his stead: and the name of his city was Pau; and
his wife's name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the
daughter of Mezahab.
40 And these are the names of the dukes that came of
Esau, according to their families, after their places, by
their names; duke Timnah, duke Alvah, duke Jetheth,
41 Duke Aholibamah, duke Elah, duke Pinon,
42 Duke Kenaz, duke Teman, duke Mibzar,
43 Duke Magdiel, duke Iram: these be the dukes of Edom,
according to their habitations in the land of their
possession: he is Esau the father of the Edomites. |
