Joshua 15:13-19
13 Now ahe gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh a portion bamong the sons of Judah, in accordance with the ▼▼Lit mouth
command of the Lord to Joshua, namely, ▼▼I.e., the city of Arba
Kiriath-arba, Arba being the father of Anak (that is, Hebron). 14And eCaleb ▼▼Or dispossessed them
drove out from there the three gsons of Anak: Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak. 15Then hhe went up from there against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir previously was Kiriath-sepher. 16And Caleb said, “The one who ▼▼Lit strikes
attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, ▼▼Lit and I
I will give him Achsah my daughter as a wife.” 17 kOthniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, captured it; so he gave him Achsah his daughter as a wife. 18 lAnd it happened that when she came to him, she incited him to ask her father for a field. So she dismounted from the donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you want?” 19Then she said, “Give me a blessing; since you have given me the land of the ▼▼I.e., South country
Negev, give me springs of water also.” So he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
