Joshua 14:9-11

New Century Version

⁹ So that day Moses promised me, ‘The land where you went will become your land, and your children will own it forever. I will give you that land because you fully believed in the Lord, my God.’

¹⁰ “Now then, the Lord has kept his promise. He has kept me alive for forty-five years from the time he said this to Moses during the time we all wandered in the desert. Now here I am, eighty-five years old. ¹¹ I am still as strong today as I was the day Moses sent me out, and I am just as ready to fight now as I was then.
