Jacob sent messengers in front of him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, the field of Edom.

So Esau returned that day on his way to Seir.

Esau lived in the hill country of Seir. Esau is Edom.

This is the history of the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in the hill country of Seir:

chief Dishon, chief Ezer, and chief Dishan: these are the chiefs who came of the Horites, according to their chiefs in the land of Seir.

Edom shall be a possession. Seir, his enemies, also shall be a possession, while Israel does valiantly.

The Amorites, who lived in that hill country, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even to Hormah.

Command the people, saying, ‘You are to pass through the border of your brothers the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you. Therefore be careful.
