Joshua 15:10-18 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

14. So Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak—Sheshai, Ahiman and Talmai, children of Anak.

15. Then he went up from there against the inhabitants of Debir (now the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath-sepher).

16. Caleb said, “I will give my daughter Achsah as a wife to the one who attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it.”

17. So Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb’s kinsman, captured it, so he gave him his daughter Achsah as a wife.

18. Now it came about when she came to him, that she persuaded Othniel to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her: “What do you need?”
