10And JudahH3063 wentH3212 against the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in HebronH2275: (now the nameH8034 of HebronH2275 beforeH6440 was Kirjath–arbaH7153:) and they slewH5221 SheshaiH8344, and AhimanH289, and TalmaiH8526. 11And from thence he wentH3212 against the inhabitantsH3427 of DebirH1688: and the nameH8034 of DebirH1688 beforeH6440 was Kirjath–sepherH7158: 12And CalebH3612 saidH559, He that smitethH5221 Kirjath–sepherH7158, and takethH3920 it, to him will I giveH5414 AchsahH5915 my daughterH1323 to wifeH802. 13And OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, Caleb’sH3612 youngerH6996 brotherH251, tookH3920 it: and he gaveH5414 him AchsahH5915 his daughterH1323 to wifeH802. 14And it came to pass, when she cameH935 to him, that she movedH5496 him to askH7592 of her fatherH1 a fieldH7704: and she lightedH6795 from off her donkeyH2543; and CalebH3612 saidH559 unto her, What wilt thou? 15And she saidH559 unto him, GiveH3051 me a blessingH1293: for thou hast givenH5414 me a southH5045 landH776; giveH5414 me also springsH1543 of waterH4325. And CalebH3612 gaveH5414 her the upperH5942 springsH1543 and the netherH8482 springsH1543.

16And the childrenH1121 of the KeniteH7017, Moses’H4872 father in lawH2859, went upH5927 out of the cityH5892 of palm treesH5899H8558 with the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 into the wildernessH4057 of JudahH3063, which lieth in the southH5045 of AradH6166; and they wentH3212 and dweltH3427 amongH854 the peopleH5971.
