And still, I am as strong today as I was when Moses sent me out: as my strength was then, so is it now, for war and for all the business of life. So now, give me this hill-country named by the Lord at that time; for you had an account of it then, how the Anakim were there, and great walled towns: it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to take their land, as the Lord said.
