Joshua 15:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the [a]brother of Caleb took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
18 And as she went in to him, she moved him, to ask of her father a field: [b]and she lighted off her ass, and Caleb said unto her, What wilt thou?
19 Then she answered, [c]Give me a blessing: for thou hast given me the South country: [d]give me also springs of water. And he gave her the springs above, and the springs beneath.
