36:1  These are the family records of Esau (that is, Edom).
36:2  Esau took his wives from the Canaanite women: Adah daughter of Elon the Hethite, Oholibamah daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite,
36:3  and Basemath daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth.
36:4  Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, Basemath bore Reuel,
36:5  and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These were Esau’s sons, who were born to him in the land of Canaan.
36:6  Esau took his wives, sons, daughters, and all the people of his household, as well as his herds, all his livestock, and all the property he had acquired in Canaan; he went to a land away from his brother Jacob.
36:7  For their possessions were too many for them to live together, and because of their herds, the land where they stayed could not support them.
36:8  So Esau (that is, Edom) lived in the mountains of Seir.
36:9  These are the family records of Esau, father of the Edomites in the mountains of Seir.

36:31  These are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king reigned over the Israelites:
36:32  Bela son of Beor reigned in Edom; the name of his city was Dinhabah.
36:33  When Bela died, Jobab son of Zerah from Bozrah reigned in his place.
