וּמָצָ֣אתָ אֶת לְבָבוֹ֩ נֶאֱמָ֨ן לְפָנֶ֜יךָ וְכָר֣וֹת עִמּ֣וֹ הַבְּרִ֡ית לָ֡תֵת אֶת אֶ֣רֶץ הַ֠כְּנַעֲנִי הַחִתִּ֨י הָאֱמֹרִ֧י וְהַפְּרִזִּ֛י וְהַיְבוּסִ֥י וְהַגִּרְגָּשִׁ֖י לָ֣תֵת לְזַרְע֑וֹ וַתָּ֣קֶם אֶת דְּבָרֶ֔יךָ כִּ֥י צַדִּ֖יק אָֽתָּה׃

King James Version (KJV)

And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it, I say, to his seed, and hast performed thy words; for thou art righteous:

Modern English

You found his heart faithful before you, and made with him the covenant to give to his offspring the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite, and the Girgashite. And you have kept your promise, for you are righteous.
