2 aEsau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah the daughter of Elon the bHittite; cAholibamah the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;
3 and aBasemath, Ishmael’s daughter, sister of Nebajoth.
4 Now aAdah bore Eliphaz to Esau, and Basemath bore Reuel.
5 And1 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 aFor their possessions were too great for them to dwell together, and bthe land where they were strangers could not support them because of their livestock.
8 So Esau dwelt in aMount Seir. bEsau 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: aEliphaz 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, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz.
12 Now Timna was the concubine of Eliphaz, Esau’s son, and she bore aAmalek to Eliphaz. These were the sons of Adah, Esau’s wife.
