Chapter 36

And these are births of Esau, who is Edom.

Esau hath taken his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah daughter of Anah, daughter of Zibeon the Hivite,

and Bashemath daughter of Ishmael, sister of Nebajoth.

And Adah beareth to Esau, Eliphaz; and Bashemath hath born Reuel;

and Aholibamah hath born Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah. These are sons of Esau, who were born to him in the land of Canaan.

And Esau taketh 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 hath acquired in the land of Canaan, and goeth into the country from the face of Jacob his brother;

for their substance was more abundant than to dwell together, and the land of their sojournings was not able to bear them because of their cattle;

and Esau dwelleth in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

And these are births of Esau, father of Edom, in mount Seir.
