Judges 1:11-15

Judges 1:11-15 TPT

From there, they attacked the city of Debir, formerly known as Kiriath Sepher. Caleb announced, “I will give my daughter Achsah in marriage to the man who attacks and captures Kiriath Sepher.” Caleb’s nephew Othniel the Kenizzite captured Kiriath Sepher; and Caleb gave him his daughter Achsah in marriage. One day, Othniel nagged her to ask her father for a field as a wedding gift, so she went to him. When she got down from her donkey, Caleb said to her, “What can I do for you?” “Please, give me a blessing,” she replied. “I know you’ve already given me some arid desert land, but please give me a field with springs of water.” So Caleb blessed her with a field that had both upper and lower springs.
