Judges 1:12-15

12And Caleb said, “Whoever attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give him my daughter Achsah as a wife.” 13Now 1Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, captured it; so he gave him his daughter Achsah as a wife. 14Then 2it happened that when she came to him, she incited him to ask her father for a field. Then later, she dismounted from 3her donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What 4do you want?” 15She said to him, “Give me a blessing: since you have given me the land of the 5Negev, give me springs of water also.” So Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
