[And the Lord gave to Caleb strength, and unto eld (age) abode still to him virtue; that he should ascend (or go up) into the high place of the earth, and the seed of him hold the heritage.]
10 And all the children of Israel saw, that it is good to obey to (the) holy God. [And all the sons of Israel saw, for it is good to obeish to the holy God.]
11 And all (the) judges by their name, the heart of whom was not corrupt(ed) by avarice, but were strong in battle, (and) which were not turned away from the Lord by idolatry; (so) that the mind (or the memory) of them be in blessing,
12 and their bones appear from their place; and their name dwelleth without end, for the glory of holy men dwelleth at (or with) the sons of them. [and the bones of them burgeon from their place, and the name of them abideth still into without end, the glory of those holy men abiding still to the sons of them.]

19 And before the time of (the) end of his life, and of the world, he gave witnessing in the sight of the Lord, and of Christ (or of his christ, or his anointed), that is, Saul, anointed into king; he took not of (or from) any man riches, yea, till to the shoe; and no man accused him. [And before the time of the end of his life, and he gave witnessing of the world, in the sight of the Lord, and of Christ; monies and unto the shoe, of all flesh he took not; and there accused him not a man.]

[And after that he slept, and made known to the king, and showed to him the end of his life; and enhanced his voice from the earth in prophecy, to do away the unpiousness of the folk.]
