²² And they went up through the South and came to ^(A)Hebron; Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of ^(B)Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)

¹³ And Joshua ^(A)blessed him, ^(B)and gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh as an inheritance. ^14 (C)Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he ^(D)wholly followed the Lord God of Israel. ¹⁵ And ^(E)the name of Hebron formerly was Kirjath Arba (Arba was the greatest man among the Anakim).

^(F)Then the land had rest from war.

Caleb Occupies Hebron and Debir^(A)

^13 (B)Now to Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a share among the children of ^(C)Judah, according to the commandment of the Lord to Joshua, namely, ^(D)Kirjath Arba, which is Hebron (Arba was the father of Anak).

¹⁰ Then Judah ^[a]went against the Canaanites who dwelt in ^(A)Hebron. (Now the name of Hebron was formerly ^(B)Kirjath Arba.) And they killed Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.

^20 (A)And they gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had said. Then he ^[a]expelled from there the ^(B)three sons of Anak.
