Caleb, Jefunneh boy from da Keniz blood line, tell Joshua, “Fo shua you rememba wat wen happen Kadesh-Barnea side—wat Da One In Charge wen tell Moses bout me an you. Moses da guy dat stay tight wit God an work fo God. 7 ✡ 14:7: Census 13:1-30Me, I was forty year ol wen Moses wen sen me from Kadesh-Barnea fo scope out da land. An afta I go an come back by him, I tell um wat I tink fo real kine. 8 You know, my braddahs dat wen go wit me make da peopo come real sked. But me, I wen go all out fo stay tight wit my God, Da One In Charge. 9 ✡ 14:9: Census 14:24So dat day, Moses wen make one strong promise to me, fo erybody know dat he goin do um. He tell me, ‘You goin get da land wea you wen walk on top um fo come yoa property—you, an yoa ohana foeva. Cuz you go all out fo stay tight wit my God, Da One In Charge.’

So I still stay hea today, eighty-five year ol! 11 I still yet stay strong, jalike wen Moses wen sen me ova dea.

You wen hear dat time dat da Anak peopo stay ova dea, an dey get big towns dat get strong wall. But maybe Da One In Charge goin help me, an I goin push out da peopo, jalike Da One In Charge wen tell.”
