Book of Genesis 47


Edom, and these the sons of Ada.
17 And these were the sons of Rahuel, the son
of Esau: duke Nahath, duke Zara, duke Samma,
duke Meza. And these are the dukes of Rahuel,
in the land of Edom: these the sons of Basemath,
the wife of Esau.
18 And these the sons of Oolibama, the wife
of Esau: duke Jehus, duke Ihelon, duke Core.
These are the dukes of Oolibama, the daughter
of Ana, and wife of Esau.
19 These are the sons of Esau, and these the
dukes of them: the same is Edom.
20 These are the sons of Seir, the Horrite, the
inhabitants of the land: Lotan, and Sobal, and
Sebeon, and Ana,
21 And Dison, and Eser, and Disan. These
are dukes of the Horrites, the sons of Seir, in the
land of Edom.
22 And Lotan had sons: Hori and Heman.
And the sister of Lotan was Thamna.
23 And these the sons of Sobal: Alvan, and
Manahat, and Ebal, and Sepho, and Onam.
24 And these the sons of Sebeon: Aia and
Ana. This is Ana that found the hot waters in
the wilderness, when he fed the asses of Sebeon,
his father:
25 And he had a son Dison, and a daughter
Oolibama.
26 And these were the sons of Dison: Hamdan,
and Eseban, and Jethram, and Charan.
27 These also were the sons of Eser: Balaan,
and Zavan, and Acan.
28 And Dison had sons: Hus and Aram.
29 These were dukes of the Horrites: duke
Lotan, duke Sobal, duke Sebeon, duke Ana,
30 Duke Dison, duke Eser, duke Disan: these
were dukes of the Horrites that ruled in the land
of Seir.
31 And the kings that ruled in the land of
Edom, before the children of Israel had a king,


were these:
32 Bela the son of Beor, and the name of his
city Denaba.
33 And Bela died, and Jobab, the son of Zara,
of Bosra, reigned in his stead.
34 And when Jobab was dead, Husam, of the
land of the Themanites, reigned in his stead.
35 And after his death, Adad, the son of
Badad, reigned in his stead, who defeated the
Madianites in the country of Boab; and the name
of his city was Avith.
36 And when Adad was dead, there reigned
in his stead, Semla, of Masreca.
37 And he being dead, Saul, of the river Ro-
hoboth, reigned in his stead.
38 And when he also was dead, Balanan, the
son of Achobor, succeeded to the kingdom.
39 This man also being dead, Adar reigned in
his place; and the name of his city was Phau:
and his wife was called Meetabel, the daughter
of Matred, daughter of Mezaab.
40 And these are the names of the dukes of
Esau in their kindreds, and places, and callings:
duke Thamna, duke Alva, duke Jetheth,
41 Duke Oolibama, duke Ela, duke Phinon,
42 Duke Cenez, duke Theman, duke Mabsar,
43 Duke Magdiel, duke Hiram: these are the
dukes of Edom dwelling in the land of their gov-
ernment; the same is Esau, the father of the
Edomites.
