Joshua 15:13-17
131The Lord had told Joshua to give Kiriath Arba to Caleb, Jephunneh's son. That was the part of Judah's land that Caleb received. Arba was the father of Anak. Kiriath Arba was now called Hebron.
14Caleb chased out the three sons of Anak from Hebron. Their names were Sheshai, Ahiman and Talmai.
15From there he went to attack the people of Debir. (Debir had been called Kiriath Sepher).
16Caleb said, ‘If a brave man attacks and takes Kiriath Sepher, he can marry my daughter, Acsah.’
17Othniel attacked the city and he took it. He was the son of Caleb's brother, Kenaz. So Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to Othniel, to be his wife.
