Joshua 15:14-63
14And 1CalebH3612 2droveH3423 outH3423 from thereH8033 the threeH7969 3sonsH1121 of AnakH6061: SheshaiH8344, AhimanH289, and TalmaiH8526, the childrenH3211 of AnakH6061. 15Then 4he wentH5927 upH5927 from thereH8033 againstH413 the inhabitantsH3427 of DebirH1688; now the nameH8034 of DebirH1688 previouslyH6440 was Kiriath-sepherH7158. 16And CalebH3612 saidH559, “The one whoH834 5attacksH5221 Kiriath-sepherH7158 and capturesH3920 it, 6I will giveH5414 him AchsahH5915 my daughterH1323 as a wifeH802.” 177OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, the brotherH251 of CalebH3612, capturedH3920 it; so he gaveH5414 him AchsahH5915 his daughterH1323 as a wifeH802. 188And it happenedH1961 that when she cameH935 to him, she incitedH5496 him to askH7592 her fatherH1 for a fieldH7704. So she dismountedH6795 from the donkeyH2543, and CalebH3612 saidH559 to her, “WhatH4100 do you want?” 19Then she saidH559, “GiveH5414 me a blessingH1293; sinceH3588 you have givenH5414 me the landH776 of the 9NegevH5045, giveH5414 me springsH1543 of waterH4325 also.” So he gaveH5414 her the upperH5942 springsH1543 and the lowerH8482 springsH1543.
