Caleb's Request and Inheritance

⁶Then the people of Judah came to Joshua at Gilgal. And Caleb the son of Jephunneh the ^(A)Kenizzite said to him, “You know ^(B)what the Lord said to Moses the man of God in Kadesh-barnea concerning you and me. ⁷I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the Lord ^(C)sent me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land, and I brought him word again as it was in my heart. ⁸But ^(D)my brothers who went up with me made the heart of the people melt; yet I wholly followed the Lord my God. ⁹And Moses swore on that day, saying, ^(E)‘Surely the land ^(F)on which your foot has trodden shall be an inheritance for you and your children forever, because you have wholly followed the Lord my God.’ ¹⁰And now, behold, the Lord has kept me alive, ^(G)just as he said, these ^(H)forty-five years since the time that the Lord spoke this word to Moses, while Israel walked in the wilderness. And now, behold, I am this day ^(I)eighty-five years old. ¹¹^(J)I am still as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me; my strength now is as my strength was then, for war and ^(K)for going and coming. ¹²So now give me this hill country of which the Lord spoke on that day, for you heard on that day how the ^(L)Anakim were there, with great fortified cities. It may be that the Lord will be with me, and I shall drive them out just as the Lord said.”

¹³Then Joshua ^(M)blessed him, and he gave ^(N)Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for an inheritance. ¹⁴Therefore Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, ^(O)because he wholly followed the Lord, the God of Israel. ¹⁵^(P)Now the name of Hebron formerly was Kiriath-arba.^[a] (Arba^[b] was the greatest man among the Anakim.) ^(Q)And the land had rest from war.

Deuteronomy 31:7-17

English Standard Version

⁷Then ^(A)Moses summoned Joshua and said to him in the sight of all Israel, ^(B)“Be strong and courageous, for you shall go with this people into the land that the Lord has sworn to their fathers to give them, and you shall put them in possession of it. ⁸It is the Lord ^(C)who goes before you. He will be with you; ^(D)he will not leave you or forsake you. ^(E)Do not fear or be dismayed.”

The Reading of the Law

⁹Then Moses ^(F)wrote this law and gave it to the priests, the sons of Levi, ^(G)who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the elders of Israel. ¹⁰And Moses commanded them, ^(H)“At the end of every seven years, at the set time in the year of release, at ^(I)the Feast of Booths, ¹¹when all Israel comes ^(J)to appear before the Lord your God at the place that he will choose, ^(K)you shall read this law before all Israel in their hearing. ¹²^(L)Assemble the people, men, women, and little ones, and the sojourner within your towns, that they may hear and learn to fear the Lord your God, and be careful to do all the words of this law, ¹³and that their children, ^(M)who have not known it, ^(N)may hear and learn to fear the Lord your God, ^(O)as long as you live in the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess.”

Joshua Commissioned to Lead Israel

¹⁴And the Lord said to Moses, ^(P)“Behold, the days approach when you must die. Call Joshua and present yourselves in the tent of meeting, that ^(Q)I may commission him.” And Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves in the tent of meeting. ¹⁵And ^(R)the Lord appeared in the tent in a pillar of cloud. And the pillar of cloud stood over the entrance of the tent.

¹⁶And the Lord said to Moses, ^(S)“Behold, you are about to lie down with your fathers. Then this people will rise and ^(T)whore after the foreign gods among them in the land that they are entering, and they will ^(U)forsake me and ^(V)break my covenant that I have made with them. ¹⁷Then my anger will be kindled against them in that day, and ^(W)I will forsake them and ^(X)hide my face from them, and they will be devoured. And many evils and troubles will come upon them, so that they will say in that day, ^(Y)‘Have not these evils come upon us because ^(Z)our God is not among us?’

¹⁵Moses spoke to the Lord, saying, ¹⁶“Let the Lord, ^(A)the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation ¹⁷who ^(B)shall go out before them and come in before them, who shall lead them out and bring them in, that the congregation of the Lord may not be ^(C)as sheep that have no shepherd.” ¹⁸So the Lord said to Moses, “Take ^(D)Joshua the son of Nun, a man ^(E)in whom is the Spirit, and ^(F)lay your hand on him. ¹⁹Make him stand before Eleazar the priest and all the congregation, and you shall ^(G)commission him in their sight. ²⁰You shall invest him with some of your authority, ^(H)that all the congregation of the people of Israel may obey. ²¹And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him ^(I)by the judgment of the Urim before the Lord. At his word they shall go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he and all the people of Israel with him, the whole congregation.” ²²And Moses did as the Lord commanded him. He took Joshua and made him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole congregation, ²³and he laid his hands on him and ^(J)commissioned him as the Lord directed through Moses.
