1Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom.

1This is a record of Esau's genealogy, that is, of Edom.

2Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;

2Esau had married Canaanite women, including Elon the Hittite's daughter Adah, Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah (who was Zibeon the Hivite's daughter), and

3And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth.

3Ishamael's daughter Basemath (who was Nebaioth's sister).

4And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare Reuel;

4Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, Basemath bore Reuel, and

5And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these are the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of Canaan.

5Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These were Esau's sons, who were born to him in the territory of Canaan.

6And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother Jacob.

6Later, Esau took his wives, his children, everyone in his household, his livestock, all his animals, and all his possessions that he had acquired in the territory of Canaan and moved far away from his brother Jacob,

7For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land wherein they were strangers could not bear them because of their cattle.

7because their holdings were too vast to allow them to stay together, since the land where they had settled was not able to support all of their livestock.

8Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

8So Esau lived in Mount Seir. (Esau was also known as Edom.)

9And these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in mount Seir:
