Joshua 14:4-9 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

4. For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim. They gave no portion to the Levites in the land, except cities to dwell in, with their pasture lands for their livestock and for their property.

5. The children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses, and they divided the land.

6. Then the children of Judah came near to Joshua in Gilgal. Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, “You know the thing that the Lord spoke to Moses the man of God concerning me and concerning you in Kadesh Barnea.

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

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

9. Moses swore on that day, saying, ‘Surely the land where you walked shall be an inheritance to you and to your children forever, because you have wholly followed the Lord my God.’
