Judges 1:4-14

⁴And Judah went up; and the Lord delivered the Canaanite and the Perizzite into their hands, and they smote them in Bezek to the number of ten thousand men.

⁵And they overtook Adoni-bezek in Bezek, and fought against him; and they smote the Canaanite and the Perizzite.

⁶And Adoni-bezek fled, and they pursued after him, and took him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.

⁷And Adoni-bezek said, Seventy kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their food under my table: as I therefore have done, so God has recompensed me: and they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.

⁸And the children of Judah fought against Jerusalem, and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and they burned the city with fire.

⁹And afterward the children of Judah went down to fight with the Canaanite dwelling in the hill country, and the south, and the plain country.

¹⁰And Judah went to the Canaanite who dwelt in Hebron; and Hebron came out against him; and the name of Hebron before was Kiriath-arba-sepher: and they smote Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, children of Anak.

¹¹And they went up thence to the inhabitants of Debir; but the name of Debir was before Kiriath-sepher, the city of Letters.

¹²And Caleb said, Whosoever shall smite the city of Letters, and shall first take it, I will give to him Achsah my daughter to wife.

¹³And Othniel the younger son of Kenaz the brother of Caleb took it; and Caleb gave him his daughter Achsah to wife.

¹⁴And it came to pass as she went in, that Othniel urged her to ask a field of her father; and she murmured and cried from off her ass, Thou hast sent me forth into a south land: and Caleb said to her, What is thy request?
