Génesis 36
La Biblia de las Américas
Descendientes de Esaú
36 (A)Estas son las generaciones de Esaú, es decir, Edom(B).
2 Esaú tomó sus mujeres de las hijas de Canaán: a Ada, hija de Elón hitita; a Aholibama, hija de Aná y nieta[a] de Zibeón heveo(C); 3 y a Basemat, hija de Ismael, hermana de Nebaiot(D). 4 Ada dio a luz a Elifaz para Esaú; y Basemat dio a luz a Reuel(E). 5 Y Aholibama dio a luz a Jeús, a Jaalam y a Coré. Estos son los hijos que le nacieron a Esaú en la tierra de Canaán. 6 Entonces Esaú tomó a sus mujeres, sus hijos y sus hijas y todas las personas[b] de su casa, y su ganado y todas sus bestias, y todos los bienes que había acumulado en la tierra de Canaán(F), y se fue a otra tierra lejos de su hermano Jacob. 7 Porque los bienes de ellos habían llegado a ser tantos que no podían habitar juntos(G), y la tierra en que moraban[c](H) no podía sostenerlos(I) a causa de su mucho ganado. 8 Y habitó Esaú en la región montañosa de Seir(J); Esaú es Edom(K). 9 Estas son las generaciones de Esaú, padre de los edomitas[d], en la región montañosa de Seir.
10 Estos son los nombres de los hijos de Esaú: Elifaz, hijo de Ada, mujer de Esaú, y Reuel, hijo de Basemat, mujer de Esaú. 11 Y los hijos de Elifaz fueron Temán, Omar, Zefo[e], Gatam y Cenaz. 12 Timna fue concubina de Elifaz, hijo de Esaú, y le[f] dio a luz a Amalec(L). Estos son los hijos de Ada, mujer de Esaú. 13 Y estos son los hijos de Reuel: Nahat, Zera, Sama y Miza. Estos fueron los hijos de Basemat, mujer de Esaú. 14 Y estos fueron los hijos de Aholibama, mujer de Esaú, hija de Aná, nieta[g] de Zibeón: Ella tuvo de[h] Esaú a Jeús, Jaalam y Coré.
15 Estos son los jefes de entre los hijos de Esaú. Los hijos de Elifaz, primogénito de Esaú, son: el jefe Temán, el jefe Omar, el jefe Zefo, el jefe Cenaz, 16 el jefe Coré, el jefe Gatam y el jefe Amalec. Estos son los jefes que descendieron de Elifaz en la tierra de Edom; estos son los hijos de Ada. 17 Estos son los hijos de Reuel, hijo de Esaú: el jefe Nahat, el jefe Zera, el jefe Sama y el jefe Miza. Estos son los jefes que descendieron de Reuel en la tierra de Edom; estos son los hijos de Basemat, mujer de Esaú. 18 Estos son los hijos de Aholibama, mujer de Esaú: el jefe Jeús, el jefe Jaalam, el jefe Coré. Estos son los jefes que descendieron de Aholibama, mujer de Esaú, hija de Aná. 19 Estos fueron los hijos de Esaú, es decir, Edom, y estos sus jefes.
Descendientes de Seir
20 Estos son los hijos de Seir horeo(M), habitantes de aquella[i] tierra: Lotán, Sobal, Zibeón, Aná, 21 Disón, Ezer y Disán. Estos son los jefes que descendieron de los horeos, los hijos de Seir en la tierra de Edom. 22 Los hijos de Lotán fueron Hori y Hemam[j]; y la hermana de Lotán era Timna. 23 Estos son los hijos de Sobal: Alván, Manahat, Ebal, Sefo y Onam. 24 Estos son los hijos de Zibeón: Aja y Aná. Este es el Aná que halló las fuentes termales en el desierto cuando pastoreaba los asnos de su padre Zibeón. 25 Estos son los hijos de Aná: Disón y Aholibama, hija de Aná. 26 Estos son los hijos de Disón[k]: Hemdán[l], Esbán, Itrán y Querán. 27 Estos son los hijos de Ezer: Bilhán, Zaaván y Acán[m]. 28 Estos son los hijos de Disán: Uz y Arán. 29 Estos son los jefes que descendieron de los horeos: el jefe Lotán, el jefe Sobal, el jefe Zibeón, el jefe Aná, 30 el jefe Disón, el jefe Ezer y el jefe Disán. Estos son los jefes que descendieron de los horeos, jefe por jefe[n], en la tierra de Seir.
Reyes de Edom
31 Estos son los reyes que reinaron en la tierra de Edom, antes de que rey alguno reinara sobre los hijos de Israel(N): 32 Bela[o], hijo de Beor, reinó en Edom; y el nombre de su ciudad era Dinaba(O). 33 Murió Bela, y reinó en su lugar Jobab, hijo de Zera, de Bosra. 34 Murió Jobab, y reinó en su lugar Husam, de la tierra de los temanitas. 35 Murió Husam, y reinó en su lugar Hadad, hijo de Bedad, el que derrotó[p] a Madián en el campo de Moab; y el nombre de su ciudad era Avit. 36 Murió Hadad, y reinó en su lugar Samla de Masreca. 37 Murió Samla, y reinó en su lugar Saúl de Rehobot, junto al río Eufrates. 38 Murió Saúl, y reinó en su lugar Baal-hanán, hijo de Acbor. 39 Y murió Baal-hanán, hijo de Acbor, y reinó en su lugar Hadar[q]; y el nombre de su ciudad era Pau[r]; y el nombre de su mujer era Mehetabel, hija de Matred, hija de Mezaab.
40 Estos son los nombres de los jefes que descendieron de Esaú, según sus familias y sus localidades, por sus nombres: el jefe Timna, el jefe Alva[s], el jefe Jetet, 41 el jefe Aholibama, el jefe Ela, el jefe Pinón, 42 el jefe Cenaz, el jefe Temán, el jefe Mibsar, 43 el jefe Magdiel y el jefe Iram. Estos son los jefes de Edom, es decir, Esaú, padre de los edomitas[t], según sus moradas en la tierra de su posesión.

The Origin of Edom(A)
36 This is the account of Esau (that is, Edom) and his descendants. 2 Esau chose his wives from the women of Canaan: Adah, daughter of Elon the Hittite; Oholibamah, daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite; 3 also Basemath, daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth. 4 Adah gave birth to Eliphaz for Esau, and Basemath gave birth to Reuel. 5 Oholibamah gave birth to Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These were the sons of Esau who were born in Canaan.
6 Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, all the members of his household, his possessions, all his cattle, and everything he had accumulated in Canaan and went to another land away from his brother Jacob. 7 He did this because they had too many possessions to live together. There wasn’t enough pastureland for all of their livestock. 8 So Esau, who was also known as Edom, lived in the mountains of Seir.
9 This is the account of Esau and his descendants. He was the father of the people of Edom in the mountains of Seir.
10 These were the names of Esau’s sons:
Eliphaz, son of Esau’s wife Adah, and Reuel, son of Esau’s wife Basemath.
11 The sons of Eliphaz were
Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. 12 Timna was a concubine[a] of Esau’s son Eliphaz. She gave birth to Amalek for Eliphaz. These were the grandsons of Esau’s wife Adah.
13 These were Reuel’s sons:
Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the grandsons of Esau’s wife Basemath.
14 These were the sons of Esau’s wife Oholibamah, daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon. She gave birth to Jeush, Jalam, and Korah for Esau.
15 These were the tribal leaders among Esau’s descendants:
The sons of Eliphaz, Esau’s firstborn, were

20 These were the sons of Seir the Horite, the people living in that land:

31 These were the kings who ruled Edom before any king ruled the people of Israel:
32 Bela, son of Beor, ruled Edom. The name of his capital city was Dinhabah.
33 After Bela died, Jobab, son of Zerah from Bozrah, succeeded him as king.
34 After Jobab died, Husham from the land of the Temanites succeeded him as king.
35 After Husham died, Hadad, son of Bedad succeeded him as king. Hadad defeated the Midianites in the country of Moab. The name of his capital city was Avith.
