Berĕshith (Genesis) 36

1And this is the genealogy of Ěsaw, who is Eḏom.
2Ěsaw took his wives from the daughters of Kena‛an: Aḏah the daughter of Ělon the Ḥittite, and Oholiḇamah the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Tsiḇ‛on the Ḥiwwite;
3and Basemath, Yishma‛ĕl’s daughter, sister of Neḇayoth.
4And Aḏah bore Eliphaz to Ěsaw, and Basemath bore Re‛u’ĕl.
5And Oholiḇamah bore Ye‛ush, and Ya‛lam, and Qoraḥ. These were the sons of Ěsaw who were born to him in the land of Kena‛an.
6And Ěsaw took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the beings of his household, and his herds and all his beasts, and all his possessions which he had gained in the land of Kena‛an, and went to a land away from the presence of his brother Ya‛aqoḇ.
7For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together, and the land of their sojournings could not support them because of their herds.
8So Ěsaw dwelt in Mount Sĕ‛ir. Ěsaw is Eḏom.
9And this is the genealogy of Ěsaw the father of the Eḏomites in Mount Sĕ‛ir.

19These were the sons of Ěsaw, who is Eḏom, and these were their chiefs.
20These were the sons of Sĕ‛ir the Ḥorite who inhabited the land: Lotan, and Shoḇal, and Tsiḇ‛on, and Anah,
21and Dishon, and Ětser, and Dishan. These were the chiefs of the Ḥorites, the sons of Sĕ‛ir, in the land of Eḏom.

30Chief Dishon, Chief Ětser, and Chief Dishan. These were the chiefs of the Ḥorites, according to their chiefs in the land of Sĕ‛ir.
31And these were the sovereigns who reigned in the land of Eḏom before any sovereign reigned over the children of Yisra’ĕl.
32And Bela the son of Be‛or reigned in Eḏom, and the name of his city was Dinhaḇah.
33And Bela died, and Yoḇaḇ son of Zeraḥ of Botsrah reigned in his place.
