Joshua 14:7-9

Good News Translation

^7 (A)I was forty years old when the Lord's servant Moses sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out this land. I brought an honest report back to him. ⁸ The men who went with me, however, made our people afraid. But I faithfully obeyed the Lord my God. ^9 (B)Because I did, Moses promised me that my children and I would certainly receive as our possession the land which I walked over.
