¹Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom.

¹Ndiwoka marudzi aEsau unova Edhomu:

²Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;

²Esau wakatora vakadzi vake kuvakunda veKanani, Adha, mukunda waEroni muHeti, naHoribhama mukunda waAna, mukunda waZibhioni muHivhi,

³And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth.

³naBhasimati mukunda waIshimaeri hanzvadzi yaNebhayoti.

⁴And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare Reuel;

⁴Adha ndokubereka Esau Erifazi; Bhasimati ndokubereka Rueri;

⁵And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these are the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of Canaan.

⁵Ohori­bhama ndokubereka Jeushi naJarami naKora; ava vanakomana vaEsau, vaakaberekerwa panyika yeKanani.

⁶And Esau took 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 had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother Jacob.

⁶Zvino Esau wakatora vakadzi vake nevanakomana vake nevakunda vake, nemweya yose yeimba yake, nemombe dzake nezvipfuwo zvake zvose, nenhumbi dzake dzose dzaakange awana munyika yeKanani, ndokuenda kune imwe nyika achibva pachiso chaJakove munin'ina wake.

⁷For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land wherein they were strangers could not bear them because of their cattle.

⁷Nekuti zvipfuwo zvavo zvakange zvakawanda zvokuti vaiva vasingagoni kugara pamwe, uye nyika yeutorwa hwavo yakange isingagoni kuvatakura nekuda kwezvipfuwo zvavo.

⁸Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

⁸Esau ndokugara kugomo reSeiri; Esau ndiye Edhomu.
