The Descendants of Esau

361 And these 'are' births of Esau, who 'is' Edom. 2 Esau hath taken his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah daughter of Anah, daughter of Zibeon the Hivite, 3 and Bashemath daughter of Ishmael, sister of Nebajoth. 4 And Adah beareth to Esau, Eliphaz; and Bashemath hath born Reuel; 5 and Aholibamah hath born Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah. These 'are' sons of Esau, who were born to him in the land of Canaan. 6 And Esau taketh 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 hath acquired in the land of Canaan, and goeth into the country from the face of Jacob his brother; 7 for their substance was more abundant than to dwell together, and the land of their sojournings was not able to bear them because of their cattle; 8 and Esau dwelleth in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

9 And these 'are' births of Esau, father of Edom, in mount Seir. 10 These 'are' the names of the sons of Esau: Eliphaz son of Adah, wife of Esau; Reuel son of Bashemath, wife of Esau. 11 And the sons of Eliphaz are Teman, Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz; 12 and Timnath hath been concubine to Eliphaz son of Esau, and she beareth to Eliphaz, Amalek; these 'are' sons of Adah wife of Esau. 13 And these 'are' sons of Reuel: Nahath and Zerah, Shammah and Mizzah; these were sons of Bashemath wife of Esau. 14 And these have been the sons of Aholibamah daughter of Anah, daughter of Zibeon, wife of Esau; and she beareth to Esau, Jeush and Jaalam and Korah. 15 These 'are' chiefs of the sons of Esau: sons of Eliphaz, first-born of Esau: chief Teman, chief Omar, chief Zepho, chief Kenaz, 16 chief Korah, chief Gatam, chief Amalek; these 'are' chiefs of Eliphaz, in the land of Edom; these 'are' sons of Adah. 17 And these 'are' sons of Reuel son of Esau: chief Nahath, chief Zerah, chief Shammah, chief Mizzah; these 'are' chiefs of Reuel, in the land of Edom; these 'are' sons of Bashemath wife of Esau. 18 And these 'are' sons of Aholibamah wife of Esau: chief Jeush, chief Jaalam, chief Korah; these 'are' chiefs of Aholibamah daughter of Anah, wife of Esau. 19 These 'are' sons of Esau (who 'is' Edom), and these their chiefs.

20 These 'are' sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and Anah, 21 and Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan; these 'are' chiefs of the Horites, sons of Seir, in the land of Edom. 22 And the sons of Lotan are Hori and Heman; and a sister of Lotan 'is' Timna. 23 And these 'are' sons of Shobal: Alvan and Manahath, and Ebal, Shepho and Onam. 24 And these 'are' sons of Zibeon, both Ajah and Anah: it 'is' Anah that hath found the Imim in the wilderness, in his feeding the asses of Zibeon his father. 25 And these 'are' sons of Anah: Dishon, and Aholibamah daughter of Anah. 26 And these 'are' sons of Dishon: Hemdan, and Eshban, and Ithran, and Cheran. 27 These 'are' sons of Ezer: Bilhan, and Zaavan, and Akan. 28 These 'are' sons of Dishan: Uz and Aran. 29 These 'are' chiefs of the Horite: chief Lotan, chief Shobal, chief Zibeon, chief Anah, 30 chief Dishon, chief Ezer, chief Dishan: these 'are' chiefs of the Horite in reference to their chiefs in the land of Seir.

31 And these 'are' the kings who have reigned in the land of Edom before the reigning of a king over the sons of Israel. 32 And Bela son of Beor reigneth in Edom, and the name of his city 'is' Dinhabah; 33 and Bela dieth, and reign in his stead doth Jobab son of Zerah from Bozrah; 34 and Jobab dieth, and reign in his stead doth Husham from the land of the Temanite. 35 And Husham dieth, and reign in his stead doth Hadad son of Bedad (who smiteth Midian in the field of Moab), and the name of his city 'is' Avith; 36 and Hadad dieth, and reign in his stead doth Samlah of Masrekah; 37 and Samlah dieth, and reign in his stead doth Saul from Rehoboth of the River; 38 and Saul dieth, and reign in his stead doth Baal-hanan son of Achbor; 39 and Baal-hanan son of Achbor dieth, and reign in his stead doth Hadar, and the name of his city 'is' Pau; and his wife's name 'is' Mehetabel daughter of Matred, daughter of Me-zahab. 40 And these 'are' the names of the chiefs of Esau, according to their families, according to their places, by their names: chief Timnah, chief Alvah, chief Jetheth, 41 chief Aholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon, 42 chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar, 43 chief Magdiel, chief Iram: these 'are' chiefs of Edom, in reference to their dwellings, in the land of their possession; he 'is' Esau father of Edom.

Man's Disobedience

31 And the serpent hath been subtile above every beast of the field which Jehovah God hath made, and he saith unto the woman, 'Is it true that God hath said, Ye do not eat of every tree of the garden?' 2 And the woman saith unto the serpent, 'Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we do eat, 3 and of the fruit of the tree which 'is' in the midst of the garden God hath said, Ye do not eat of it, nor touch it, lest ye die.' 4 And the serpent saith unto the woman, 'Dying, ye do not die, 5 for God doth know that in the day of your eating of it—your eyes have been opened, and ye have been as God, knowing good and evil.'

6 And the woman seeth that the tree 'is' good for food, and that it 'is' pleasant to the eyes, and the tree is desirable to make 'one' wise, and she taketh of its fruit and eateth, and giveth also to her husband with her, and he doth eat; 7 and the eyes of them both are opened, and they know that they 'are' naked, and they sew fig-leaves, and make to themselves girdles. 8 And they hear the sound of Jehovah God walking up and down in the garden at the breeze of the day, and the man and his wife hide themselves from the face of Jehovah God in the midst of the trees of the garden.

9 And Jehovah God calleth unto the man, and saith to him, 'Where 'art' thou?' 10 and he saith, 'Thy sound I have heard in the garden, and I am afraid, for I am naked, and I hide myself.'

11 And He saith, 'Who hath declared to thee that thou 'art' naked? of the tree of which I have commanded thee not to eat, hast thou eaten?' 12 and the man saith, 'The woman whom Thou didst place with me—she hath given to me of the tree—and I do eat.' 13 And Jehovah God saith to the woman, 'What 'is' this thou hast done?' and the woman saith, 'The serpent hath caused me to forget—and I do eat.'

14 And Jehovah God saith unto the serpent, 'Because thou hast done this, cursed 'art' thou above all the cattle, and above every beast of the field: on thy belly dost thou go, and dust thou dost eat, all days of thy life; 15 and enmity I put between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he doth bruise thee—the head, and thou dost bruise him—the heel.'

16 Unto the woman He said, 'Multiplying I multiply thy sorrow and thy conception, in sorrow dost thou bear children, and toward thy husband 'is' thy desire, and he doth rule over thee.'

17 And to the man He said, 'Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and dost eat of the tree concerning which I have charged thee, saying, Thou dost not eat of it, cursed 'is' the ground on thine account; in sorrow thou dost eat of it all days of thy life, 18 and thorn and bramble it doth bring forth to thee, and thou hast eaten the herb of the field; 19 by the sweat of thy face thou dost eat bread till thy return unto the ground, for out of it hast thou been taken, for dust thou 'art', and unto dust thou turnest back.'

20 And the man calleth his wife's name Eve: for she hath been mother of all living.

21 And Jehovah God doth make to the man and to his wife coats of skin, and doth clothe them.

22 And Jehovah God saith, 'Lo, the man was as one of Us, as to the knowledge of good and evil; and now, lest he send forth his hand, and have taken also of the tree of life, and eaten, and lived to the age,'— 23 Jehovah God sendeth him forth from the garden of Eden to serve the ground from which he hath been taken; 24 yea, he casteth out the man, and causeth to dwell at the east of the garden of Eden the cherubs and the flame of the sword which is turning itself round to guard the way of the tree of life.
