These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, Shobal,
Zibeon, Anah, Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. These are the chiefs who came of the Horites,
the children of Seir in the land of Edom. The children of Lotan were Hori and Heman.
Lotan’s sister was Timna. These are the children of Shobal: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal,
Shepho, and Onam. These are the children of Zibeon: Ayah and Anah. This is Anah who
found the hot springs in the wilderness, as he fed the donkeys of Zibeon his father. These

Dishon, chief Ezer, and chief Dishan: these are the chiefs who came of the Horites,
according to their chiefs in the land of Seir.
These are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom, before any king reigned over

The name of his city was Avith. Hadad died, and Samlah of Masrekah reigned in his place.
Samlah died, and Shaul of Rehoboth by the river, reigned in his place. Shaul died, and

These are the names of the chiefs who came from Esau, according to their families,
after their places, and by their names: chief Timna, chief Alvah, chief Yetheth, chief
Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon, chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar, chief
Magdiel, and chief Iram. These are the chiefs of Edom, according to their habitations in
the land of their possession. This is Esau, the father of the Edomites.

Ya`aqob lived in the land of his father’s travels, in the land of Kayinan. This is the
history of the generations of Ya`aqob. Yoseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the
flock with his brothers. He was a boy with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father’s
wives. Yoseph brought an evil report of them to their father. Now Yisrael loved Yoseph
more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age, and he made him a coat
of long sleeves. His brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, and
they hated him, and couldn’t speak peaceably to him.
Yoseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brothers, and they hated him all the
more. He said to them, “Please hear this dream which I have dreamed: for behold, we were
binding sheaves in the field, and behold, my sheaf arose and also stood upright; and

behold, your sheaves came around, and bowed down to my sheaf.”
