¹⁴ Caleb drove out ^(A)the three sons of Anak from there: ^(B)Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.

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

²¹ And at that time Joshua came and cut off ^(A)the Anakim from the mountains: from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel; Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities.

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.) ^23 (C)Then they came to the ^[a]Valley of Eshcol, and there cut down a branch with one cluster of grapes; they carried it between two of them on a pole. They also brought some of the pomegranates and figs.

³⁶ So Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, to ^(A)Hebron; and they fought against it. ³⁷ And they took it and struck it with the edge of the sword—its king, all its cities, and all the people who were in it; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon, but utterly destroyed it and all the people who were in it.

³³ There we saw the ^[a]giants (^(A)the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were ^(B)like^[b] grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were ^(C)in their sight.”
