Joshua 14:8

Caleb Requests Hebron

7I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land, and I brought back to him an honest report.8Although my brothers who went with me made the hearts of the people melt with fear, I remained loyal to the LORD my God.9On that day Moses swore to me, saying, ‘Surely the land on which you have set foot will be an inheritance to you and your children forever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.’
