Judges 1:11-15
11From there Judah’s troops went to fight the people living at Debir. (In the past Debir was called Kiriath Sepher.)
12Caleb said, “I will give my daughter Achsah as a wife to whoever defeats Kiriath Sepher and captures it.”
13Then Othniel, son of Caleb’s younger brother Kenaz, captured it. So Caleb gave him his daughter Achsah as a wife.
14When she came to Othniel, she persuaded him to ask her father for a field. When she got down from her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you want?”
15She answered, “Give me a blessing. Since you’ve given me some dry land, also give me some springs.” So Caleb gave her the upper and lower springs.
