1 Now these are the generations of Esau, that is to say, Edom.
1
6 Now these are the toldot Esav, who is Edom.
2 Esau's wives were women of Canaan: Adah, the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite,
2
Esav took his nashim of the Banot Kena’an: Adah Bat Elon the Chitti, and Oholivamah Bat Anah Bat Tziveon the Chivvi;
3 And Basemath, Ishmael's daughter, the sister of Nebaioth.
3
And Basemat Bat Yishma’el, achot Nevayot.
4 Adah had a son Eliphaz; and Basemath was the mother of Reuel;
4
And Adah bore to Esav Eliphaz; and Basemat bore Reuel;
5 Oholibamah was the mother of Jeush, Jalam, and Korah; these are the sons of Esau, whose birth took place in the land of Canaan.
5
And Oholivamah bore Yeush, and Ya’alam, and Korach; these are the Bnei Esav, which were born unto him in Eretz Kena’an.
6 Esau took his wives and his sons and his daughters, and all the people of his house, and his beasts and his cattle and all his goods which he had got together in the land of Canaan, and went into the land of Seir, away from his brother Jacob.
6
And Esav took his nashim, and his banim, and his banot, and kol nafshot of his bais, and his mikneh, and all his behemah, and all his possessions, which he had acquired in Eretz Kena’an; and went into the eretz from the face of Ya’akov achiv.
7 For their wealth was so great that the land was not wide enough for the two of them and all their cattle.
7
For their wealth was more than that they might dwell together; and the eretz of their sojourns could not support them because of their mikneh.
8 So Esau made his living-place in the hill-country of Seir (Esau is Edom).
8
Thus dwelt Esav in har Seir; Esav is Edom.
9 And these are the generations of Esau, the father of the Edomites in the hill-country of Seir:
