1Now these are the toldot Esav, who is Edom.
2Esav took his nashim of the Banot Kena'an: Adah Bat Elon the Chitti, and Oholivamah Bat Anah Bat Tziveon the Chivi;
3And Basmat Bat Yishmael, achot Nevayot.
4And Adah bore to Esav Eliphaz; and Basmat bore Reuel;
5And Oholivamah bore Ye'ush, and Ya'alam, and Korach; these are the Bnei Esav, which were born unto him in Eretz Kena'an.
6And 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.
7For their wealth was more than that they might dwell together; and the eretz of their sojourns could not support them because of their mikneh.
8Thus dwelt Esav in har Se'ir; Esav is Edom.
9And these are the toldot Esav avi Edom in har Se'ir:
10These are the shemot Bnei Esav; Eliphaz Ben Adah eshet Esav, Reuel Ben Basmat eshet Esav.

31And these are the melechim that reigned in Eretz Edom, before there reigned any melech over the Bnei Yisroel.
