Now ^(C1)he gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh a portion ^(C2)among the sons of Judah, in accordance with the ^(F1)command of the LORD to Joshua, namely, ^(F2)Kiriath-arba, Arba being the father of Anak (that is, Hebron).

And ^(C1)Caleb ^(F1)drove out from there the three ^(C2)sons of Anak: Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.

Then ^(C1)he went up from there against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir previously was Kiriath-sepher.

And Caleb said, "The one who ^(F1)attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, ^(F2)I will give him Achsah my daughter as a wife."

^(C1)Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, captured it; so he gave him Achsah his daughter as a wife.

^(C1)And 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?"

Then she said, "Give me a blessing; since you have given me the land of the ^(F1)Negev, give me springs of water also." So he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
