New Testament

Joshua 14:5-9 English Standard Version (ESV)

5. The people of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses; they allotted the land.

6. Then the people of Judah came to Joshua at Gilgal. And Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, “You know what the Lord said to Moses the man of God in Kadesh-barnea concerning you and me.

7. I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land, and I brought him word again as it was in my heart.

8. But my brothers who went up with me made the heart of the people melt; yet I wholly followed the Lord my God.

9. And Moses swore on that day, saying, ‘Surely the land on which your foot has trodden shall be an inheritance for you and your children forever, because you have wholly followed the Lord my God.’
