2 And the Lord said, a“Judah shall go up. Indeed I have delivered the land into his hand.”  
3 So Judah said to aSimeon his brother, “Come up with me to my allotted territory, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and bI will likewise go with you to your allotted territory.” And Simeon went with him.  
4 Then Judah went up, and the Lord delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand; and they killed ten thousand men at aBezek.  
5 And they found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and fought against him; and they defeated the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
6 Then Adoni-Bezek fled, and they pursued him and caught him and cut off his thumbs and big toes.
7 And Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off used to gather scraps under my table; aas I have done, so God has repaid me.” Then they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.  
8 Now athe children of Judah fought against Jerusalem and took it; they struck it with the edge of the sword and set the city on fire.  
9 aAnd afterward the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who dwelt in the mountains, in the1 South, and in the lowland.  
10 Then Judah1 went against the Canaanites who dwelt in aHebron. (Now the name of Hebron was formerly bKirjath Arba.) And they killed Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.  
11 aFrom there they went against the inhabitants of Debir. (The name of Debir was formerly Kirjath Sepher.)  
12 aThen Caleb said, “Whoever attacks Kirjath Sepher and takes it, to him I will give my daughter Achsah as wife.”  
13 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, aCaleb’s younger brother, took it; so he gave him his daughter Achsah as wife.  
14 aNow it happened, when she came to him, that1 she urged him to ask her father for a field. And she dismounted from her donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you wish?”  
15 So she said to him, a“Give me a blessing; since you have given me land in the South, give me also springs of water.” And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.  
16 aNow the children of the Kenite, Moses’ father-in-law, went up bfrom the City of Palms with the children of Judah into the Wilderness of Judah, which lies in the South near cArad; dand they went and dwelt among the people.  
17 aAnd Judah went with his brother Simeon, and they attacked the Canaanites who inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. So the name of the city was called bHormah.  
18 Also Judah took aGaza with its territory, Ashkelon with its territory, and Ekron with its territory.
