Numbers 34:17

15 These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance across the Jordan from Jericho, toward the sunrise.”

16 Then the LORD said to Moses,

“These are the names of the men who are to assign the land as an inheritance for you: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.

18 Appoint one leader from each tribe to distribute the land.

19 These are their names: Caleb son of Jephunneh from the tribe of Judah;

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
