1 This is the story of Esau's family. Esau's other name was Edom.

2-5 Esau married 3 women who came from the country called Canaan. Their names were Adah, Ohol-i-bar-mah and Bas-e-math, whose other name was Ma-ha-lath.

Adah was the daughter of a Hittite man called Elon, and she gave Esau a son named Eli-faz.

Ohol-i-bar-mah was the daughter of a man named Anah. Her grandfather's name was Zibeon who was a Hivite man.

Ohol-i-bar-mah gave Esau 3 sons, Jeush, Jalam and Korah.

Bas-e-math's father was Ishmael, Isaac's brother. Bas-e-math had a brother who was named Neb-you-cad-nezzaray-oth.

Bas-e-math gave Esau a son named Rew-el.

All these children were born while Esau and his wives lived in Canaan.

6-8 Jacob and Esau had too many animals for that country to feed, so Esau moved away from there and lived in a country called Seir. Seir was a long way from Canaan.

Esau took his wives, his children, all his workers, all his animals and everything else that he got while he lived in Canaan.

9 This is the story of Esau's sons and their families that lived in the hill country called Seir. Esau was the father of all the people called Edomites. 10 This is the list of Esau's sons.

12 Eli-faz and his second wife named Timna had a son and his name was Amalek.

So Elifaz's mother, Adah, was grandmother for all of Eli-faz's 6 boys.

13 Bas-e-math and Esau's son, Rew-el had 4 sons. Their names were Nahath, Zerah, Shammah and Mizzah. And so Bas-e-math was grandmother for these 4 boys.
