Joshua 14:7-9
Modern English Version
7 I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy on the land, and I brought word back to him as it was in my heart. 8 My companions who went up with me made the hearts of the people melt, but I wholeheartedly followed after the Lord my God. 9 On that day Moses swore an oath, ‘The land on which your foot treads shall be your inheritance, for your descendants perpetually, because you completely followed after the Lord my God.’
