So Esau (also known as Edom) lived in the hill country of Seir.

These were the names of Esau’s sons: Eliphaz, the son of Esau’s wife Adah, and Reuel, the son of Esau’s wife Basemath.

So that same day Esau made his way back to Seir.

What follows is the account of Esau (also known as Edom).

Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and lentil stew; Esau ate and drank, then got up and went out. So Esau despised his birthright.

Now Rebekah had been listening while Isaac spoke to his son Esau. When Esau went out to the open fields to hunt down some wild game and bring it back,

Esau said to his father, “Do you have only that one blessing, my father? Bless me too!” Then Esau wept loudly.

Timna, a concubine of Esau’s son Eliphaz, bore Amalek to Eliphaz. These were the sons of Esau’s wife Adah.

These were the sons of Esau’s wife Oholibamah the daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon: She bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah to Esau.

These were the chiefs among the descendants of Esau, the sons of Eliphaz, Esau’s firstborn: chief Teman, chief Omar, chief Zepho, chief Kenaz,

These were the sons of Esau’s wife Oholibamah: chief Jeush, chief Jalam, chief Korah. These were the chiefs descended from Esau’s wife Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah.

Then he asked, “Are you really my son Esau?” “I am,” Jacob replied.

This is the account of Esau, the father of the Edomites, in the hill country of Seir.

These were the sons of Esau (also known as Edom), and these were their chiefs.

The first came out reddish all over, like a hairy garment, so they named him Esau.

Isaac loved Esau because he had a taste for fresh game, but Rebekah loved Jacob.

Now Jacob cooked some stew, and when Esau came in from the open fields, he was famished.

“Look,” said Esau, “I’m about to die! What use is the birthright to me?”

He did not recognize him because his hands were hairy, like his brother Esau’s hands. So Isaac blessed Jacob.

His father Isaac asked, “Who are you?” “I am your firstborn son,” he replied, “Esau!”
