Genesis 36:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 So Esau took his wives and his sons, and his daughters, and all the souls of his house, and his flocks, and all his cattle, and all his substance, which he had gotten in the land of Canaan, and [a]went into another country from his brother Jacob.
7 For their riches were so great, that they could not dwell together, and the land, wherein they were strangers, could not receive them because of their flocks.
8 (A)Therefore dwelt Esau in mount Seir: this Esau is Edom.
