Esau’s Descendants(A)(B)

36 This is the account(C) of the family line of Esau (that is, Edom).(D)

2 Esau took his wives from the women of Canaan:(E) Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite,(F) and Oholibamah(G) daughter of Anah(H) and granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite(I)— 3 also Basemath(J) daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth.(K)

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

6 Esau 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,(N) and moved to a land some distance from his brother Jacob.(O) 7 Their possessions were too great for them to remain together; the land where they were staying could not support them both because of their livestock.(P) 8 So Esau(Q) (that is, Edom)(R) settled in the hill country of Seir.(S)

9 This is the account(T) of the family line of Esau the father of the Edomites(U) in the hill country of Seir.

10 These are the names of Esau’s sons:

Eliphaz, the son of Esau’s wife Adah, and Reuel, the son of Esau’s wife Basemath.(V)

13 The sons of Reuel:

Nahath, Zerah, Shammah and Mizzah. These were grandsons of Esau’s wife Basemath.(AC)

14 The sons of Esau’s wife Oholibamah(AD) daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon, whom she bore to Esau:

15 These were the chiefs(AF) among Esau’s descendants:

20 These were the sons of Seir the Horite,(AS) who were living in the region:

Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,(AT) 21 Dishon, Ezer and Dishan. These sons of Seir in Edom were Horite chiefs.(AU)

22 The sons of Lotan:

23 The sons of Shobal:

29 These were the Horite chiefs:

Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,(BA) 30 Dishon, Ezer and Dishan. These were the Horite chiefs,(BB) according to their divisions, in the land of Seir.

The Rulers of Edom(BC)

31 These were the kings who reigned in Edom before any Israelite king(BD) reigned:

32 Bela son of Beor became king of Edom. His city was named Dinhabah.

33 When Bela died, Jobab son of Zerah from Bozrah(BE) succeeded him as king.

34 When Jobab died, Husham from the land of the Temanites(BF) succeeded him as king.

Discendenti di Esaù

36 (A)Questa è la discendenza di Esaù, cioè Edom.

2 Esaù prese le sue mogli tra le figlie dei Cananei: Ada, figlia di Elon, l’Ittita; Oolibama, figlia di Ana, 3 figlia di Sibeon, l’Ivveo; e Basmat, figlia d’Ismaele, sorella di Nebaiot. 4 Ada partorì Elifaz a Esaù. 5 Basmat partorì Reuel; e Oolibama partorì Ieus, Ialam e Cora. Questi sono i figli di Esaù, che gli nacquero nel paese di Canaan. 6 Esaù prese le sue mogli, i suoi figli, le sue figlie, tutte le persone della sua casa, le sue greggi, tutto il suo bestiame e tutti i beni che aveva messi insieme nel paese di Canaan, e se ne andò in un altro paese, lontano da Giacobbe suo fratello, 7 poiché il loro bestiame[a] era troppo numeroso perché essi potessero abitare insieme; il paese nel quale soggiornavano non era loro sufficiente a causa del loro bestiame. 8 Così Esaù abitò sulla montagna di Seir. Esaù è Edom[b].

9 (B)Questa è la discendenza di Esaù, padre degli Edomiti, sulla montagna di Seir. 10 Questi sono i nomi dei figli di Esaù: Elifaz, figlio di Ada, moglie di Esaù; Reuel, figlio di Basmat, moglie di Esaù. 11 I figli di Elifaz furono: Teman, Omar, Sefo, Gatam e Chenaz. 12 Timna era la concubina di Elifaz, figlio di Esaù; ella partorì Amalec a Elifaz. Questi furono i figli di Ada, moglie di Esaù. 13 Questi furono i figli di Reuel: Naat e Zerac, Samma e Mizza. Questi furono i figli di Basmat, moglie di Esaù. 14 Questi furono i figli di Oolibama, figlia di Ana, figlia di Sibeon, moglie di Esaù; ella partorì a Esaù: Ieus, Ialam e Cora.

15 Questi sono i capi dei figli di Esaù: figli di Elifaz, primogenito di Esaù: il capo Teman, il capo Omar, il capo Sefo, il capo Chenaz, 16 il capo Cora, il capo Gatam, il capo Amalec; questi sono i capi discesi da Elifaz, nel paese di Edom, e sono i figli di Ada. 17 Questi sono i figli di Reuel, figlio di Esaù: il capo Naat, il capo Zerac, il capo Samma, il capo Mizza; questi sono i capi discesi da Reuel, nel paese di Edom. E sono i figli di Basmat, moglie di Esaù. 18 E questi sono i figli di Oolibama, moglie di Esaù: il capo Ieus, il capo Ialam, il capo Cora; questi sono i capi discesi da Oolibama, figlia di Ana, moglie di Esaù. 19 Questi sono i figli di Esaù, che è Edom, e questi sono i loro capi.

20 (C)Questi sono i figli di Seir, il Coreo, che abitavano il paese: Lotan, Sobal, Sibeon, Ana, 21 Dison, Eser e Disan. Questi sono i capi dei Corei, figli di Seir, nel paese di Edom. 22 I figli di Lotan furono: Cori ed Eman; e la sorella di Lotan fu Timna. 23 Questi sono i figli di Sobal: Alvan, Manaat, Ebal, Sefo e Onam. 24 Questi sono i figli di Sibeon: Aia e Ana. Questo è quell’Ana che trovò le acque calde nel deserto, mentre pascolava gli asini di suo padre Sibeon. 25 Questi sono i figli di Ana: Dison e Oolibama, figlia di Ana. 26 Questi sono i figli di Dison: Chemdan, Esban, Itran e Cheran. 27 Questi sono i figli di Eser: Bilan, Zaavan e Acan. 28 Questi sono i figli di Disan: Uz e Aran.

29 Questi sono i capi dei Corei: il capo Lotan, il capo Sobal, il capo Sibeon, il capo Ana, 30 il capo Dison, il capo Eser, il capo Disan. Questi sono i capi dei Corei, i capi che essi ebbero nel paese di Seir.

31 (D)Questi sono i re che regnarono nel paese di Edom, prima che alcun re regnasse sui figli d’Israele: 32 Bela, figlio di Beor, regnò in Edom, e il nome della sua città fu Dinaba. 33 Bela morì e Iobab, figlio di Zerac, di Bosra, regnò al suo posto. 34 Iobab morì e Cusam, del paese dei Temaniti, regnò al suo posto. 35 Cusam morì e Adad, figlio di Bedad, che sconfisse i Madianiti nei campi di Moab, regnò al suo posto. E il nome della sua città fu Avit. 36 Adad morì e Samla di Masreca regnò al suo posto. 37 Samla morì e Saul di Recobot-Naar regnò al suo posto. 38 Saul morì e Baal-Canan, figlio di Acbor, regnò al suo posto. 39 Baal-Canan, figlio di Acbor, morì e Adad regnò al suo posto. Il nome della sua città fu Pau, e il nome di sua moglie, Meetabeel, figlia di Matred, figlia di Mezaab.

40 Questi sono i nomi dei capi discendenti da Esaù, secondo le loro famiglie, secondo i loro territori, con i loro nomi: il capo Timna, il capo Alva, il capo Ietet, 41 il capo Oolibama, il capo Ela, il capo Pinon, 42 il capo Chenaz, il capo Teman, il capo Mibsar, il capo Magdiel, il capo Iram. 43 Questi sono i capi di Edom secondo i loro insediamenti, nel paese che possedevano. Questo Esaù era il padre degli Edomiti.

Genesis 36
New King James Version

The Family of Esau(A)

36 Now this is the genealogy of Esau, (B)who is Edom. 2 (C)Esau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah the daughter of Elon the (D)Hittite; (E)Aholibamah[a] the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite; 3 and (F)Basemath, Ishmael’s daughter, sister of Nebajoth. 4 Now (G)Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, and Basemath bore Reuel. 5 And [b]Aholibamah bore Jeush, Jaalam, 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, his daughters, and all the persons of his household, his cattle and all his animals, and all his goods which he had gained in the land of Canaan, and went to a country away from the presence of his brother Jacob. 7 (H)For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together, and (I)the land where they were strangers could not support them because of their livestock. 8 So Esau dwelt in (J)Mount Seir. (K)Esau is Edom.

9 And this is the genealogy of Esau the father of the Edomites in Mount Seir. 10 These were the names of Esau’s sons: (L)Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, and Reuel the son of Basemath the wife of Esau. 11 And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, [c]Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz.

12 Now Timna was the concubine of Eliphaz, Esau’s son, and she bore (M)Amalek to Eliphaz. These were the sons of Adah, Esau’s wife.

13 These were the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the sons of Basemath, Esau’s wife.

14 These were the sons of [d]Aholibamah, Esau’s wife, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon. And she bore to Esau: Jeush, Jaalam, and Korah.

The Chiefs of Edom

15 These were the chiefs of the sons of Esau. The sons of Eliphaz, the firstborn son of Esau, were Chief Teman, Chief Omar, Chief Zepho, Chief Kenaz, 16 [e]Chief Korah, Chief Gatam, and Chief Amalek. These were the chiefs of Eliphaz in the land of Edom. They were the sons of Adah.

17 These were the sons of Reuel, Esau’s son: Chief Nahath, Chief Zerah, Chief Shammah, and Chief Mizzah. These were the chiefs of Reuel in the land of Edom. These were the sons of Basemath, Esau’s wife.

18 And these were the sons of [f]Aholibamah, Esau’s wife: Chief Jeush, Chief Jaalam, and Chief Korah. These were the chiefs who descended from Aholibamah, Esau’s wife, the daughter of Anah. 19 These were the sons of Esau, who is Edom, and these were their chiefs.

The Sons of Seir

20 (N)These were the sons of Seir (O)the Horite who inhabited the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, 21 Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. These were the chiefs of the Horites, the sons of Seir, in the land of Edom.

22 And the sons of Lotan were Hori and [g]Hemam. Lotan’s sister was Timna.

23 These were the sons of Shobal: [h]Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, [i]Shepho, and Onam.

24 These were the sons of Zibeon: both Ajah and Anah. This was the Anah who found the [j]water in the wilderness as he pastured (P)the donkeys of his father Zibeon. 25 These were the children of Anah: Dishon and [k]Aholibamah the daughter of Anah.

26 These were the sons of [l]Dishon: [m]Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and Cheran. 27 These were the sons of Ezer: Bilhan, Zaavan, and [n]Akan. 28 These were the sons of Dishan: (Q)Uz and Aran.

29 These were the chiefs of the Horites: Chief Lotan, Chief Shobal, Chief Zibeon, Chief Anah, 30 Chief Dishon, Chief Ezer, and Chief Dishan. These were the chiefs of the Horites, according to their chiefs in the land of Seir.

The Kings of Edom

31 (R)Now these were the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king reigned over the children of Israel: 32 Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom, and the name of his city was Dinhabah. 33 And when Bela died, Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah reigned in his place. 34 When Jobab died, Husham of the land of the Temanites reigned in his place. 35 And when Husham died, Hadad the son of Bedad, who attacked Midian in the field of Moab, reigned in his place. And the name of his city was Avith. 36 When Hadad died, Samlah of Masrekah reigned in his place. 37 And when Samlah died, Saul of (S)Rehoboth-by-the-River reigned in his place. 38 When Saul died, Baal-Hanan the son of Achbor reigned in his place. 39 And when Baal-Hanan the son of Achbor died, [o]Hadar reigned in his place; and the name of his city was [p]Pau. His wife’s name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Mezahab.

The Chiefs of Esau

40 And these were the names of the chiefs of Esau, according to their families and their places, by their names: Chief Timnah, Chief [q]Alvah, Chief Jetheth, 41 Chief [r]Aholibamah, Chief Elah, Chief Pinon, 42 Chief Kenaz, Chief Teman, Chief Mibzar, 43 Chief Magdiel, and Chief Iram. These were the chiefs of Edom, according to their dwelling places in the land of their possession. Esau was the father of [s]the Edomites.
