Judges 1:13-15
International Standard Version
13 Othniel, Caleb’s nephew through his younger brother Kenaz, captured the city, so Caleb[a] awarded him his daughter Achsah in marriage.
14 Later on, after she had arrived, she urged Othniel[b] to ask her father for a field. As she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you want[c] for yourself?”
15 “I want this blessing from you,” she replied. “Since you’ve given me land in the Negev,[d] give me water springs, too.” So Caleb gave her both the upper and lower springs.
