1This is the account of the family line of Esau (that is, Edom).

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

2Esau took his wives from the women of Canaan: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah daughter of Anah and granddaughter 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

3also Basemath daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth.

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

4Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, Basemath bore Reuel,

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

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

5Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These were Esau's sons, who were born to him in the territory of 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, and moved to a land some distance from 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,

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.

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.

8So Esau (that is, Edom) settled in the hill country of Seir.
