So the Israelites assigned these cities and their grazing areas to the Levites from their own holdings, as the LORD had instructed.

44
The LORD made them secure, in fulfillment of all he had solemnly promised their ancestors. None of their enemies could resist them.
45
Not one of the LORD's faithful promises to the family of Israel was left unfulfilled; every one was realized.
