2 So Sarah died in Kirʹi·ath-arʹba,+ that is, Hebʹron,+ in the land of Caʹnaan,+ and Abraham began to mourn and to weep over Sarah.

22 When they went up into the Negʹeb, they came to Hebʹron,+ where A·hiʹman, Sheʹshai, and Talʹmai,+ the Anʹa·kim,+ were living. Incidentally, Hebʹron had been built seven years before Zoʹan of Egypt.

14 That is why Hebʹron belongs to Caʹleb the son of Je·phunʹneh the Kenʹiz·zite as an inheritance to this day, because he followed Jehovah the God of Israel wholeheartedly.+

7 So they gave a sacred status to* Keʹdesh+ in Galʹi·lee in the mountainous region of Naphʹta·li, Sheʹchem+ in the mountainous region of Eʹphra·im, and Kirʹi·ath-arʹba,+ that is, Hebʹron, in the mountainous region of Judah.

5 In time all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebʹron+ and said: “Look! We are your own bone and flesh.*+

11 The length* of David’s reign over Israel was 40 years. In Hebʹron+ he reigned for 7 years, and in Jerusalem he reigned for 33 years.+
