13 Now ahe gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh a portion bamong the sons of Judah, according to the 1command of the Lord to Joshua, namely, 2Kiriath-arba, Arba being the father of Anak (that is, Hebron).

14 aCaleb 1drove out from there the three bsons of Anak: Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, the children of Anak.

15 Then ahe went up from there against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath-sepher.

16 And Caleb said, “The one who 1attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, 2I will give him Achsah my daughter as a wife.”

17 aOthniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, captured it; so he gave him Achsah his daughter as a wife.

18 aIt came about that when she came to him, she persuaded him to ask her father for a field. So she alighted from the donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you want?”

19 Then she said, “Give me a blessing; since you have given me the land of the 1Negev, give me also springs of water.” So he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
