Judges 1:9-15

9And afterward the children of JudahH3063 wentH3381 downH3381 to fightH3898 against the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in the hill-country, and in the SouthH5045, and in the lowland. 10And JudahH3063 went against the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in HebronH2275 (now the nameH8034 of HebronH2275 beforetime was Kiriath-arbaH7153); and they smote SheshaiH8344, and AhimanH289, and TalmaiH8526.

11And from thence he went against the inhabitantsH3427 of DebirH1688. (Now the nameH8034 of DebirH1688 beforetime was Kiriath-sepherH7158.) 12And CalebH3612 saidH559, He that smiteth Kiriath-sepherH7158, and taketh it, to him will I giveH5414 AchsahH5915 my daughterH1323 to wifeH802. 13And OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, Caleb’s youngerH6996 brotherH251, tookH3920 it: and he gaveH5414 him AchsahH5915 his daughterH1323 to wifeH802. 14And it cameH935 to pass, when she cameH935 unto him, that she moved him to askH7592 of her fatherH1 a fieldH7704: and she alighted from off her ass; and CalebH3612 saidH559 unto her, What wouldest thou? 15And she saidH559 unto him, GiveH5414 me a blessingH1293; for that thou hast setH5414 me in the landH776 of the SouthH5045, giveH5414 me also springs of waterH4325. And CalebH3612 gaveH5414 her the upperH5942 springs and the nether springs.
