1 São estes os descendentes de Esaú, também chamado de Edom. 2 Esaú casou com duas mulheres do país de Canaã, isto é, com Ada, filha de Elom, o heteu; e com Oolibama, filha de Aná e neta de Zibeão, o heveu. 3 Esaú casou também com Basemate, filha de Ismael e irmã de Nebaiote. 4 Ada foi mãe de Elifaz, Basemate foi mãe de Reuel, 5 e Oolibama foi mãe de Jeús, Jalã e Corá. Esses foram os filhos de Esaú que nasceram quando ele estava morando na terra de Canaã.

6 Depois Esaú foi para outro lugar com as suas mulheres, os seus filhos, as suas filhas e toda a gente da sua casa, separando-se assim do seu irmão Jacó. Esaú levou consigo todas as suas ovelhas e cabras, todo o seu gado e tudo o que havia conseguido no país de Canaã. 7 Esaú saiu dali porque a terra em que ele e Jacó estavam morando era pequena demais para os dois; eles tinham muito gado e por isso não podiam ficar juntos. 8 Portanto, Esaú, também chamado de Edom, foi morar na região montanhosa de Seir.

9 Segue a lista dos descendentes de Esaú, o antepassado dos edomitas, que vivem na região montanhosa de Edom, também chamada de Seir. 10-13 Ada, mulher de Esaú, teve um filho chamado Elifaz; os filhos de Elifaz foram cinco: Temã, Omar, Zefo, Gaetã e Quenaz. Com a sua concubina Timna, Elifaz teve Amaleque.

Basemate, outra mulher de Esaú, teve um filho chamado Reuel; e Reuel foi pai de quatro filhos: Naate, Zera, Sama e Miza.

14 Esaú tinha outra mulher chamada Oolibama, filha de Aná e neta de Zibeão. Os filhos dela foram Jeús, Jalã e Corá.

15 Segue a lista das tribos que descendem de Esaú. De Elifaz, o filho mais velho de Esaú, descendem as seguintes tribos: Temã, Omar, Zefo, Quenaz, 16 Corá, Gaetã e Amaleque. Estes foram descendentes de Ada, mulher de Esaú.

17 De Reuel descendem as seguintes tribos: Naate, Zera, Sama e Miza. Estes foram descendentes de Basemate, outra mulher de Esaú.

18 De Esaú com sua outra mulher chamada Oolibama, filha de Aná, descendem as seguintes tribos: Jeús, Jalã e Corá. 19 Todas essas tribos são descendentes de Esaú.

20,21 As primeiras tribos que moraram na terra de Edom eram descendentes de Lotã, Sobal, Zibeão, Aná, Disom, Eser e Disã, todos eles filhos de Seir, o horeu.

22 Lotã foi o pai dos grupos de famílias de Hori e de Homã. Lotã tinha uma irmã chamada Timna.

23 Sobal foi o antepassado dos grupos de famílias de Alvã, Manaate, Ebal, Sefô e Onã.

24 Zibeão foi pai de dois filhos: Aías e Aná. Este foi o Aná que descobriu as fontes de água quente no deserto, quando estava tomando conta dos jumentos do pai. 25,26 Aná foi o pai de Disom, que foi o pai dos grupos de famílias de Hendã, Esbã, Itrã e Querã. Aná também foi pai de uma filha chamada Oolibama.

27 Eser foi o pai dos grupos de famílias de Bilã, Zaavã e Acã.

28 Disã foi o pai dos grupos de famílias de Uz e Arã.

29,30 São estas, portanto, as tribos dos horeus na terra de Edom: Lotã, Sobal, Zibeão, Aná, Disom, Eser e Disã.

31-39 Os seguintes reis governaram a terra de Edom, um depois do outro, no tempo em que Israel ainda não tinha rei:

Belá, filho de Beor, da cidade de Dinaba.

Jobabe, filho de Zera, de Bosra.

Saul, de Reobote-do-Rio-Eufrates.

Baal-Hanã, filho de Acbor.

Hadade, da cidade de Paú (o nome da mulher dele era Meetabel, filha de Matrede e neta de Me-Zaabe).

40-43 De Esaú vieram as seguintes tribos edomitas: Timna, Alva, Jetete, Oolibama, Elá, Pinom, Quenaz, Temã, Mibsar, Magdiel e Irão. A região em que morava cada uma dessas tribos recebeu o nome da sua tribo.

1 Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom.2 Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;3 And Basemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebaioth.4 And Adah bore to Esau Eliphaz; and Basemath bore Reuel;5 And Oholibamah bore Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah: these are the sons of Esau, who were born unto him in the land of Canaan.6 And 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.7 For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land in which they were strangers could not bear them because of their cattle.8 Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.9 And these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in mount Seir:10 These are the names of Esau's sons; Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Basemath the wife of Esau.11 And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz.12 And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau's son; and she bore to Eliphaz Amalek: these were the sons of Adah Esau's wife.13 And these are the sons of Reuel; Nahath, and Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah: these were the sons of Basemath Esau's wife.14 And these were the sons of Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife: and she bore to Esau Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah.15 These were chiefs of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz the firstborn son of Esau; chief Teman, chief Omar, chief Zepho, chief Kenaz,16 Chief Korah, chief Gatam, and chief Amalek: these are the chiefs that came of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these were the sons of Adah.17 And these are the sons of Reuel Esau's son; chief Nahath, chief Zerah, chief Shammah, chief Mizzah: these are the chiefs that came of Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Basemath Esau's wife.18 And these are the sons of Oholibamah Esau's wife; chief Jeush, chief Jalam, chief Korah: these were the chiefs that came of Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau's wife.19 These are the sons of Esau, who is Edom, and these are their chiefs.20 These are the sons of Seir the Horite, who inhabited the land; Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and Anah,21 And Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan: these are the chiefs of the Horites, the children of Seir in the land of Edom.22 And the children of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and Lotan's sister was Timna.23 And the children of Shobal were these; Alvan, and Manahath, and Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.24 And these are the children of Zibeon; both Aiah, and Anah: this was that Anah that found the mules in the wilderness, as he fed the donkeys of Zibeon his father.25 And the children of Anah were these; Dishon, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah.26 And these are the children of Dishon; Hemdan, and Eshban, and Ithran, and Cheran.27 The children of Ezer are these; Bilhan, and Zaavan, and Akan.28 The children of Dishan are these; Uz, and Aran.29 These are the chiefs that came of the Horites; chief Lotan, chief Shobal, chief Zibeon, chief Anah,30 Chief Dishon, chief Ezer, chief Dishan: these are the chiefs that came of Hori, among their chiefs in the land of Seir.31 And these are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel.32 And Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom: and the name of his city was Dinhabah.33 And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah reigned in his stead.34 And Jobab died, and Husham of the land of Temani reigned in his stead.35 And Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who smote Midian in the field of Moab, reigned in his stead: and the name of his city was Avith.36 And Hadad died, and Samlah of Masrekah reigned in his stead.37 And Samlah died, and Shaul of Rehoboth by the river reigned in his stead.38 And Shaul died, and Baalhanan the son of Achbor reigned in his stead.39 And Baalhanan the son of Achbor died, and Hadar reigned in his stead: and the name of his city was Pau; and his wife's name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Mezahab.40 And these are the names of the chiefs that came of Esau, according to their families, after their places, by their names; chief Timnah, chief Alvah, chief Jetheth,41 Chief Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon,42 Chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar,43 Chief Magdiel, chief Iram: these are the chiefs of Edom, according to their habitations in the land of their possession: he is Esau the father of the Edomites.
