| 1Now these are the records of the generations of Esau (that is, Edom). | 1This is a record of Esau's genealogy, that is, of Edom. |
| 2Esau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah and the granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite; | 2Esau had married Canaanite women, including Elon the Hittite's daughter Adah, Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah (who was Zibeon the Hivite's daughter), and |
| 3also Basemath, Ishmael's daughter, the sister of Nebaioth. | 3Ishamael's daughter Basemath (who was Nebaioth's sister). |
| 4Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, and Basemath bore Reuel, | 4Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, Basemath bore Reuel, and |
| 5and Oholibamah bore Jeush and Jalam and Korah. These are the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan. | 5Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These were Esau's sons, who were born to him in the territory of Canaan. |
