Genesis 36 · Parashat Vayishlach

Now these are the generations of ῾Esav, who is Edom.

῾Esav took his wives of the daughters of Kena῾an; ῾Ada the daughter of Elon the Ḥittite, and Oholivama, daughter of ῾Ana, daughter of Żiv῾on the Ḥivvite;

and Basemat, daughter of Yishma᾽el, sister of Nevayot.

And ῾Ada bore to ῾Esav Elifaz; and Basemat bore Re῾u᾽el;

and Oholivama bore Ye῾ush and Ya῾lam, and Qoraĥ: these were the sons of ῾Esav who were born to him in the land of Kena῾an.

And ῾Esav 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 acquired in the land of Kena῾an; and went into another country away from his brother Ya῾aqov.

For their property was too great for them to dwell together; and the land in which they sojourned could not bear them because of their cattle.

Thus dwelt ῾Esav in mount Se῾ir: ῾Esav is Edom.

And these are the generations of ῾Esav the father of Edom in mount Se῾ir:

these are the names of ῾Esav’s sons; Elifaz the son of ῾Ada the wife of ῾Esav, Re῾u᾽el the son of Basemat the wife of ῾Esav.

And the sons of Elifaz were Teman, Omar, Żefo, and Ga῾tam, and Qenaz.

And Timna was concubine to Elifaz ῾Esav’s son; and she bore to Elifaz ῾Amaleq; these were the sons of ῾Ada ῾Esav’s wife.

And these are the sons of Re῾u᾽el; Naĥat, and Zeraĥ, Shamma, and Mizza: these were the sons of Basemat ῾Esav’s wife.

And these were the sons of Oholivama, the daughter of ῾Ana the daughter of Żiv῾on, ῾Esav’s wife: and she bore to ῾Esav Ye῾ush, and Ya῾lam, and Qoraĥ.

These were the chiefs of the sons of ῾Esav: the sons of Elifaz the firstborn son of ῾Esav; the chief Teman, the chief Omar, the chief Żefo, the chief Qenaz,

the chief Qoraĥ, the chief Ga῾tam, the chief ῾Amaleq: these are the chiefs of Elifaz in the land of Edom; these were the sons of ῾Ada.

And these are the sons of Re῾u᾽el ῾Esav’s son; the chief Naĥat, the chief Zeraĥ, the chief Shamma, the chief Mizza: these are the chiefs that came of Re῾u᾽el in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Basemat ῾Esav’s wife.

And these are the sons of Oholivama ῾Esav’s wife; the chief Ye῾ush, the chief Ya῾lam, the chief Qoraĥ: these were the chiefs that came of Oholivama the daughter of ῾Ana, ῾Esav’s wife.

These are the sons of ῾Esav, who is Edom, and these are their chiefs.

These are the sons of Se῾ir the Ḥorian who inhabited the land; Lotan, and Shoval, and Żiv῾on and ῾Ana.

And Dishon, and Eżer, and Dishan: these are the chiefs of the Ḥori, the children of Se῾ir in the land of Edom.

And the children of Lotan were Ḥori and Hemam; and Lotan’s sister was Timna.

And the children of Shoval were these; ῾Alevan, and Manaĥat, and ῾Eval, Shefo, and Onam.

And these are the children of Żiv῾on; both Ayya, and ῾Ana: this was that ῾Ana that found the hot springs in the wilderness, as he fed the asses of Żiv῾on his father.

And the children of ῾Ana were these; Dishon, and Oholivama the daughter of ῾Ana.

And these are the children of Dishan; Ḥemdan, and Eshban, and Yitran, and Keran.

The children of Eżer are these; Bilhan, and Za῾avan, and ῾Aqan.

The children of Dishan are these; Uż, and Aran.

These are the chiefs that came of the Ḥori: the chief Lotan, the chief Shoval, the chief Żiv῾on, the chief ῾Ana,

the chief Dishon, the chief Eżer, the chief Dishan: these are the chiefs that came of the Ḥori, according to their chiefs in the land of Se῾ir.

And these are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Yisra᾽el.

And Bela the son of Be῾or reigned in Edom: and the name of his city was Dinhava.

And Bela died, and Yovav the son of Zeraĥ of Bożra reigned in his place;

and Yovav died, and Ḥusham of the land of the Temani reigned in his place;

and Ḥusham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who smote Midyan in the field of Mo᾽av, reigned in his place; and the name of his city was ῾Avit.

And Hadad died, and Samla of Masreqa reigned in his place;

and Samla died, and Sha᾽ul of Reĥovot by the river reigned in his place;

and Sha᾽ul died, and Ba῾al-ĥanan the son of ῾Akhbor reigned in his place;

and Ba῾al-ĥanan the son of ῾Akhbor died, and Hadar reigned in his place, and the name of his city was Pa῾u; and his wife’s name was Mehetav᾽el, daughter of Matred, daughter of Me-zahav.

And these are the names of the chiefs that came of ῾Esav, according to their families, after their places, by their names; the chief Timna, the chief ῾Aleva, the chief Yetet,

the chief Oholivama, the chief Ela, the chief Pinon,

the chief Qenaz, the chief Teman, the chief Mivżar,

the chief Magdi᾽el, the chief ῾Iram: these are the chiefs of Edom, according to their settlements in the land of their possession. He is ῾Esav the father of Edom.
