Edom’s Rulers
43Now these were the kings who ruled in the land of Edom, before any king ruled over Bnei-Yisrael: Bela the son of Beor, the name of his city was Dinhabah.
44When Bela died, Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah ruled in his place.
45When Jobab died, Husham of the land of the Temanites ruled in his place.
46When Husham died, Hadad the son of Bedad, who defeated Midian in the country of Moab, ruled in his place—the name of his city was Avith.
47When Hadad died, Samlah of Masrekah ruled in his place.
48When Samlah died, Shaul of Rehoboth-on-the-River ruled in his place.
49When Shaul died, Baal-Hanan the son of Achbor ruled in his place.
50When Baal-Hanan died, Hadad ruled in his place—the name of his city was Pai, and his wife’s name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Me-zahab.
51Then Hadad died. So the tribal chiefs of Edom were: chief Timna, chief Alvah, chief Jetheth
52chief Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon
53chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar,
54chief Magdiel, and chief Iram. These were the chiefs of Edom.
