1 Chronicles 2:18-24
Legacy Standard Bible
18 Now Caleb the son of Hezron became a father by Azubah his wife, and by Jerioth; and these were her sons: Jesher, Shobab, and Ardon.
19 Then Azubah died, and Caleb took for himself Ephrath as a wife, and she bore him Hur.
20 Hur became the father of Uri,
and Uri became the father of Bezalel.
21 Afterward Hezron went in to the daughter of Machir the father of Gilead, whom he took as a wife when he was sixty years old; and she bore him Segub.
22 Segub became the father of Jair, and he had twenty-three cities in the land of Gilead.
23 But Geshur and Aram took [a]Havvoth-jair from them, with Kenath and its villages, even sixty cities. All these were the sons of Machir, the father of Gilead.
24 After the death of Hezron in Caleb-ephrathah, Abijah, Hezron’s wife, bore him Ashhur the father of Tekoa.

Caleb Son of Hezron
18 Caleb son of Hezron had children by his wife Azubah (and by Jerioth). These were her sons: Jesher, Shobab and Ardon. 19 When Azubah died, Caleb(A) married Ephrath, who bore him Hur. 20 Hur was the father of Uri, and Uri the father of Bezalel.(B)
21 Later, Hezron, when he was sixty years old, married the daughter of Makir the father of Gilead.(C) He made love to her, and she bore him Segub. 22 Segub was the father of Jair, who controlled twenty-three towns in Gilead. 23 (But Geshur and Aram captured Havvoth Jair,[a](D) as well as Kenath(E) with its surrounding settlements—sixty towns.) All these were descendants of Makir the father of Gilead.
