Genesis 35:16-36:9

New International Version

The Deaths of Rachel and Isaac^(A)

¹⁶Then they moved on from Bethel. While they were still some distance from Ephrath,^(B) Rachel^(C) began to give birth and had great difficulty. ¹⁷And as she was having great difficulty in childbirth, the midwife^(D) said to her, “Don’t despair, for you have another son.”^(E) ¹⁸As she breathed her last—for she was dying—she named her son Ben-Oni.^[a]^(F) But his father named him Benjamin.^[b]^(G)

¹⁹So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath^(H) (that is, Bethlehem^(I)). ²⁰Over her tomb Jacob set up a pillar, and to this day^(J) that pillar marks Rachel’s tomb.^(K)

²¹Israel moved on again and pitched his tent beyond Migdal Eder.^(L) ²²While Israel was living in that region, Reuben went in and slept with his father’s concubine^(M) Bilhah,^(N) and Israel heard of it.

Jacob had twelve sons:

²³The sons of Leah:^(O)

Reuben the firstborn^(P) of Jacob,

Simeon, Levi, Judah,^(Q) Issachar and Zebulun.^(R)

²⁴The sons of Rachel:

Joseph^(S) and Benjamin.^(T)

²⁵The sons of Rachel’s servant Bilhah:^(U)

Dan and Naphtali.^(V)

²⁶The sons of Leah’s servant Zilpah:^(W)

Gad^(X) and Asher.^(Y)

These were the sons of Jacob,^(Z) who were born to him in Paddan Aram.^(AA)

²⁷Jacob came home to his father Isaac^(AB) in Mamre,^(AC) near Kiriath Arba^(AD) (that is, Hebron),^(AE) where Abraham and Isaac had stayed.^(AF) ²⁸Isaac lived a hundred and eighty years.^(AG) ²⁹Then he breathed his last and died and was gathered to his people,^(AH) old and full of years.^(AI) And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.^(AJ)

Esau’s Descendants^(AK)^(AL)

36 This is the account^(AM) of the family line of Esau (that is, Edom).^(AN)

²Esau took his wives from the women of Canaan:^(AO) Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite,^(AP) and Oholibamah^(AQ) daughter of Anah^(AR) and granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite^(AS)— ³also Basemath^(AT) daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth.^(AU)

⁴Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, Basemath bore Reuel,^(AV) ⁵and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam and Korah.^(AW) These were the sons of Esau, who were born to him in Canaan.

⁶Esau took his wives and sons and daughters and all the members of his household, as well as his livestock and all his other animals and all the goods he had acquired in Canaan,^(AX) and moved to a land some distance from his brother Jacob.^(AY) ⁷Their possessions were too great for them to remain together; the land where they were staying could not support them both because of their livestock.^(AZ) ⁸So Esau^(BA) (that is, Edom)^(BB) settled in the hill country of Seir.^(BC)
