Judges 1:11-17
11Then 1from thereH8033 he wentH1980 againstH413 the inhabitantsH3427 of DebirH1688 (now the nameH8034 of DebirH1688 formerlyH6440 was Kiriath-sepherH7158). 12And CalebH3612 saidH559, “The one whoH834 attacksH5221 Kiriath-sepherH7158 and capturesH3920 it, I will even giveH5414 him my daughterH1323 AchsahH5915 for a wifeH802.” 132OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, Caleb’sH3612 youngerH6996 brotherH251, capturedH3920 it; so he gaveH5414 him his daughterH1323 AchsahH5915 for a wifeH802. 14Then 3it cameH1961 about when she cameH935 to him, that she persuadedH5496 him to askH7592 her fatherH1 for a fieldH7704. Then she alightedH6795 from 4her donkeyH2543, and CalebH3612 saidH559 to her, “WhatH4100 5do you want?” 15She saidH559 to him, “GiveH3051 me a blessingH1293, sinceH3588 you have givenH5414 me the landH776 of the 6NegevH5045, giveH5414 me also springsH1543 of waterH4325.” So CalebH3612 gaveH5414 her the upperH5942 springsH1543 and the lowerH8482 springsH1543.
16The 7descendantsH1121 of 8the KeniteH7017, Moses’H4872 father-in-lawH2860, wentH5927 up from the 9cityH5892 of palmsH8558 with the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063, to the wildernessH4057 of JudahH3063 whichH834 is in the southH5045 of 10AradH6166; and they wentH1980 and livedH3427 with the peopleH5971. 17Then JudahH3063 wentH1980 with SimeonH8095 his brotherH251, and they struckH5221 the CanaanitesH3669 livingH3427 in ZephathH6857, and utterlyH2763 destroyedH2763 it. So the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 was calledH7121 11HormahH2767.
