43 These are the kings who ruled the region of Edom (where Seir’s descendants lived) before any kings ruled over Israel: Bela son of Beor, and his city’s name was Dinhavah. 44 When Bela died, Zerah’s son Yovav from Batsrah city replaced him as king. 45 When Yovav died, Husham replaced him as king. He was from the region where the Teman people group lived. 46 When Husham died, Bedad’s son Hadad replaced him as king. His city’s name was Avit. Hadad defeated the Midyan people group in the Moab region. 47 When Hadad died, Samlah from Masrekah city replaced him as king. 48 When Samlah died, Shaul from Rehovot-on-the-river replaced him as king. 49 When Shaul died, Akbor’s son Baal-Hanan replaced him as king. 50 When Baal-Hanan died, Hadad replaced him as king. His city’s name was Pa’u. His wife’s name was Meheytavel—she was the daughter of Matred and the granddaughter of Me-Zahab.

51 Then Hadad[ref] died.

The leaders of the Edom people group were Chiefs Timna, Alvah, Yetet, 52 Aholivamah, Elah, Pinon, 53 Kenaz, Teman, Mivtsar, 54 Magdiel, and Iram. Those were the chiefs of Edom.
