Deuteronomy 10:9-11

International Children’s Bible

⁹ That is why the Levites did not receive any land to own. Instead, they received the Lord himself as their gift. This is what the Lord your God told them.)

¹⁰ I stayed on the mountain 40 days and 40 nights just like the first time. And the Lord listened to me this time also. He did not want to destroy you. ¹¹ The Lord said to me, “Go. Lead the people. They will go in and take the land I promised their ancestors.”
