The Descendants of Esau
1. This is the account of Esau (that is, Edom).
2. Esau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah daughter of Anah, the granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite,
3. and also Basemath, Ishmael’s daughter and sister of Nebaioth.
4. Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, Basemath bore Reuel,
5. and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These were the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan.
6. Then Esau took his wives, his sons and daughters, and all the members of his household, as well as his livestock, all his animals, and all his possessions that he had acquired in the land of Canaan, and he went to a land away from his brother Jacob.
7. For their possessions were too numerous for them to dwell together, and the land where they stayed could not support them because of their livestock.
