10These were the names of Esau’s sons: 

Eliphaz, son of Esau’s wife Adah, and Reuel, son of Esau’s wife Basemath. 

11The sons of Eliphaz were 

Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. 12Timna was a concubineaof Esau’s son Eliphaz. She gave birth to Amalek for Eliphaz. These were the grandsons of Esau’s wife Adah. 

13These were Reuel’s sons: 

Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the grandsons of Esau’s wife Basemath. 

14These were the sons of Esau’s wife Oholibamah, daughter of Anah and granddaughter of Zibeon. She gave birth to Jeush, Jalam, and Korah for Esau. 

15These were the tribal leaders among Esau’s descendants:
