Judges 1:11-15
11Then 1from there he went against the inhabitants of Debir (now the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath-sepher). 12And Caleb said, “The one who attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will even give him my daughter Achsah for a wife.” 132Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, captured it; so he gave him his daughter Achsah for a wife. 14Then 3it came about when she came to him, that she persuaded him to ask her father for a field. Then she alighted from 4her donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What 5do you want?” 15She said to him, “Give me a blessing, since you have given me the land of the 6Negev, give me also springs of water.” So Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
