Joshua 14:8-10

New International Reader's Version

⁸ Several other men of Israel went up with me. What they reported terrified the people. But I followed the Lord my God with my whole heart. ⁹ So on that day Moses made a promise to me. He said, ‘The land you have walked on will be your share. It will be the share of your children forever. That’s because you have followed the Lord my God with your whole heart.’ (Deuteronomy 1:36)

¹⁰ “The Lord has done just as he promised. He made the promise while Israel was wandering around in the desert. That was 45 years ago. He has kept me alive all this time. So here I am today, 85 years old!
