Joshua 14:12-14
International Standard Version
12 Now then, give me that hill country about which the Lord spoke back on that day, because you yourself heard back then that the Anakim[a] were there, with great reinforced cities. Perhaps the Lord will be with me and I will expel them, just as the Lord said.”
13 So Joshua blessed him and gave Hebron to Jephunneh’s son Caleb for his inheritance. 14 Therefore Hebron became the inheritance of Jephunneh the Kenizzite’s son Caleb, and it remains so today, because he fully followed the Lord God of Israel.
