* This is the inheritance of the sons of Israel in the land of Canaan , which Eleazar the priest and Joshua , the son of Nun , and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the sons of Israel , distributed unto them . * Their inheritance was by lot , as the LORD had commanded by the hand of Moses , to be given to the nine tribes and to the half tribe . * For Moses had given the inheritance of two tribes and half a tribe on the other side of the Jordan , but unto the Levites he gave no inheritance among them . * For the sons of Joseph were two tribes , Manasseh and Ephraim , and they gave no part unto the Levites in the land except cities to dwell [in ] with their suburbs for their livestock and for their substance . * As the LORD had commanded Moses , so the sons of Israel did regarding the dividing of the land . * Then the sons of Judah came unto Joshua in Gilgal , and Caleb , the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite , said unto him , Thou knowest the thing that the LORD said unto Moses , the man of God , concerning me and thee in Kadeshbarnea . * I was forty years old when Moses , the servant of the LORD , sent me from Kadeshbarnea to spy out the land , and I brought him word again as [it was ] in my heart , * but my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt ; but I entirely followed the LORD my God . * And Moses swore on that day , saying , Surely the land on which thy feet have trodden shall be thy inheritance and thy sons ' for ever because thou hast entirely followed the LORD my God . * And now , behold , the LORD has caused me to live , as he said , these forty-five years from the time that the LORD spoke these words unto Moses , while Israel has walked in the wilderness ; and now , behold , I [am ] this day eighty-five years old . * As yet I [am ] as strong today as [I was ] in the day that Moses sent me ; as my strength [was ] then , even so [is ] my strength now , for war and to go out and to come in . * Now , therefore , give me this mountain , of which the LORD spoke in that day ; for thou didst hear in that day how the Anakims [were ] there and [that ] the cities [were ] great [and ] strong ; peradventure , the LORD [will be ] with me , and I shall drive them out , as the LORD said . * Then Joshua blessed him and gave unto Caleb , the son of Jephunneh , Hebron as inheritance . * Hebron , therefore , became the inheritance of Caleb , the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite , unto this day because he entirely followed the LORD God of Israel . * And the name of Hebron before [was ] Kirjatharba ; [Arba had been ] a great man among the Anakims . And the land had rest from war .:
