Sirach 46:9

Listen to Sirach 46:9
9 The Lord gave Caleb strength, and it remained with him until he was old, so that he went up to the highlands, and his descendants had it as an inheritance.

Sirach 46:9 In-Context

7 In the days of Moses he performed acts of mercy, he and Caleb, Jephunneh's son. They opposed the congregation, restrained the people from sin, and put an end to their wicked grumbling.
8 So out of six hundred thousand soldiers, the two were spared to lead the people into their inheritance, into a land full of milk and honey.
9 The Lord gave Caleb strength, and it remained with him until he was old, so that he went up to the highlands, and his descendants had it as an inheritance.
10 In this way, all the Israelites could see that it is a good thing to follow the Lord.
11 May the memories of the judges bring blessings, each with their own name, whose hearts remained faithful and who didn't turn away from the Lord.
