Deuteronomy

Deuteronomy 1:34–36

³⁴When the LORD heard your words, He grew angry and swore an oath, saying, ³⁵“Not one of the men of this evil generation shall see the good land I swore to give your fathers, ³⁶except Caleb son of Jephunneh. He will see it, and I will give him and his descendants the land on which he has set foot, because he followed the LORD wholeheartedly.”
