7 I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the Lord asent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land, and I brought back word to him as it was in my heart.  
8 Nevertheless amy brethren who went up with me made the1 heart of the people melt, but I wholly bfollowed the Lord my God.  
9 So Moses swore on that day, saying, a‘Surely the land bwhere your foot has trodden shall be your inheritance and your children’s forever, because you have wholly followed the Lord my God.’  
10 And now, behold, the Lord has kept me aalive, bas He said, these forty-five years, ever since the Lord spoke this word to Moses while Israel1 wandered in the wilderness; and now, here I am this day, eighty-five years old.  
11 aAs yet I am as strong this day as on the day that Moses sent me; just as my strength was then, so now is my strength for war, both bfor going out and for coming in.  
12 Now therefore, give me this mountain of which the Lord spoke in that day; for you heard in that day how athe Anakim were there, and that the cities were great and fortified. bIt may be that the Lord will be with me, and cI shall be able to drive them out as the Lord said.”  
13 And Joshua ablessed him, band gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh as an inheritance.
