Then the children of Judah came to Joshua in Gilgal: and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite said to him: You know what Jehovah said to Moses the man of God concerning you and me in Kadesh-barnea. I was forty years old when Moses the servant of Jehovah sent me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land. I brought him word again as it was in my heart. Nevertheless my brothers who went up with me made the heart of the people dissolve. But I wholly followed Jehovah my God. read more.
Moses swore on that day, saying: 'Surely the land where your feet have trodden shall be your inheritance, and your children's from generation to generation, because you have completely followed Jehovah my God. Jehovah has kept me alive, as he said, these forty-five years, even since Jehovah spoke this word to Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness. Now I am this day eighty-five years old. So far I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength is now, for war, both to go out, and to come in. Now therefore give me this mountain. This is where Jehovah spoke that day. You heard about the Anakims that day. Their cities were large and fortified and Jehovah helped me drive them out just as Jehovah said. Joshua blessed Caleb the son of Jephunneh and gave him Hebron for an inheritance.
