15. He went up from there against the people of Debir. Debir was formerly named Kiriath-sepher.
16. Caleb said, He who smites Kiriath-sepher and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife.
17. And Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb's brother, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
18. When Achsah came to Othniel, she got his consent to ask her father for a field. Then she returned to Caleb and when she lighted off her donkey, Caleb said, What do you wish?
19. Achsah answered, Give me a present. Since you have set me in the [dry] Negeb, give me also springs of water. And he gave her the [sloping field with] upper and lower springs.
