42 Each town had pastures around it.
43 So the Lord kept the promise he had made to the Israelites. He gave the people all the land he had promised. The people took the land and lived there.
44 The Lord allowed them to have peace on all sides of their land. This is what he had promised to their people who lived long ago. None of their enemies defeated them. The Lord allowed the Israelites to defeat every enemy.
45 He kept every promise he had made to the Israelites. No promises failed. Each one came true.
