[1] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [2] “Send men, that they may spy out the land of Canaan, which I give to the children of Israel. Of every tribe of their fathers, you shall send a man, every one a prince among them.” [3] Moses sent them from the wilderness of Paran according to the commandment of Yahweh. All of them were men who were heads of the children of Israel. [4] These were their names:Of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur. [5] Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori. [6] Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. [7] Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph. [8] Of the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Nun. [9] Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu. [10] Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi. [11] Of the tribe of Joseph, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi. [12] Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli. [13] Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael. [14] Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi. [15] Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi. [16] These are the names of the men who Moses sent to spy out the land. Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua. [17] Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, “Go up this way by the South, and go up into the hill country. [18] See the land, what it is; and the people who dwell therein, whether they are strong or weak, whether they are few or many; [19] and what the land is that they dwell in, whether it is good or bad; and what cities they are that they dwell in, whether in camps, or in strongholds; [20] and what the land is, whether it is fertile or poor, whether there is wood therein, or not. Be courageous, and bring some of the fruit of the land.” Now the time was the time of the first-ripe grapes. [21] So they went up, and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, to the entrance of Hamath. [22] They went up by the South, and came to Hebron; and Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.) [23] They came to the valley of Eshcol, and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bore it on a staff between two. They also brought some of the pomegranates and figs. [24] That place was called the valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from there. [25] They returned from spying out the land at the end of forty days. [26] They went and came to Moses, to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, to the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word to them and to all the congregation. They showed them the fruit of the land. [27] They told him, and said, “We came to the land where you sent us. Surely it flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit. [28] However, the people who dwell in the land are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large. Moreover, we saw the children of Anak there. [29] Amalek dwells in the land of the South. The Hittite, the Jebusite, and the Amorite dwell in the hill country. The Canaanite dwells by the sea, and along the side of the Jordan.” [30] Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, “Let’s go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it!” [31] But the men who went up with him said, “We aren’t able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.” [32] They brought up an evil report of the land which they had spied out to the children of Israel, saying, “The land, through which we have gone to spy it out, is a land that eats up its inhabitants; and all the people who we saw in it are men of great stature. [33] There we saw the Nephilim,§ the sons of Anak, who come from the Nephilim.§ We were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.”

Spies Sent Out

[1] And the Lord H3068 spake H1696 unto H413 Moses, H4872 saying, H559 [2] Send thou H7971 men, H582 that they may search H8446 H853 the land H776 of Canaan, H3667 which H834 I H589 give H5414 unto the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 of every H376 H259 tribe H4294 of their fathers H1 shall ye send H7971 a man, H376 H259 every one H3605 a ruler H5387 among them. [3] And Moses H4872 by H5921 the commandment H6310 of the Lord H3068 sent H7971 them H853 from the wilderness H4057 of Paran: H6290 all H3605 those men H582 were heads H7218 of the children H1121 of Israel. H3478 H1992 [4] And these H428 were their names: H8034 of the tribe H4294 of Reuben, H7205 Shammua H8051 the son H1121 of Zaccur. H2139 [5] Of the tribe H4294 of Simeon, H8095 Shaphat H8202 the son H1121 of Hori. H2753 [6] Of the tribe H4294 of Judah, H3063 Caleb H3612 the son H1121 of Jephunneh. H3312 [7] Of the tribe H4294 of Issachar, H3485 Igal H3008 the son H1121 of Joseph. H3130 [8] Of the tribe H4294 of Ephraim, H669 Oshea H1954 the son H1121 of Nun. H5126 [9] Of the tribe H4294 of Benjamin, H1144 Palti H6406 the son H1121 of Raphu. H7505 [10] Of the tribe H4294 of Zebulun, H2074 Gaddiel H1427 the son H1121 of Sodi. H5476 [11] Of the tribe H4294 of Joseph, H3130 namely, of the tribe H4294 of Manasseh, H4519 Gaddi H1426 the son H1121 of Susi. H5485 [12] Of the tribe H4294 of Dan, H1835 Ammiel H5988 the son H1121 of Gemalli. H1582 [13] Of the tribe H4294 of Asher, H836 Sethur H5639 the son H1121 of Michael. H4317 [14] Of the tribe H4294 of Naphtali, H5321 Nahbi H5147 the son H1121 of Vophsi. H2058 [15] Of the tribe H4294 of Gad, H1410 Geuel H1345 the son H1121 of Machi. H4352 [16] These H428 are the names H8034 of the men H582 which H834 Moses H4872 sent H7971 to spy out H8446 H853 the land. H776 And Moses H4872 called H7121 Oshea H1954 the son H1121 of Nun H5126 Jehoshua. H3091 [17] And Moses H4872 sent H7971 them H853 to spy out H8446 H853 the land H776 of Canaan, H3667 and said H559 unto them, H413 Get you up H5927 this H2088 way southward, H5045 and go up H5927 H853 into the mountain: H2022 [18] and see H7200 H853 the land, H776 what H4100 it H1931 is; and H853 the people H5971 that dwelleth H3427 therein, H5921 whether they H1931 be strong H2389 or weak, H7504 few H4592 H1931 or H518 many; H7227 [19] and what H4100 the land H776 is that H834 they H1931 dwell H3427 in, whether it H1931 be good H2896 or H518 bad; H7451 and what H4100 cities H5892 they be that H834 they H1931 dwell H3427 in, H2007 whether in tents, H4264 or H518 in strong holds; H4013 [20] and what H4100 the land H776 is, whether it H1931 be fat H8082 or H518 lean, H7330 whether there be H3426 wood H6086 therein, or H518 not. H369 And be ye of good courage, H2388 and bring H3947 of the fruit H6529 of the land. H776 Now the time H3117 was the time H3117 of the firstripe H1061 grapes. H6025 [21] So they went up, H5927 and searched H8446 H853 the land H776 from the wilderness H4057 of Zin H6790 unto H5704 Rehob, H7340 as men come H935 to Hamath. H2574 [22] And they ascended H5927 by the south, H5045 and came H935 unto H5704 Hebron; H2275 where H8033 Ahiman, H289 Sheshai, H8344 and Talmai, H8526 the children H3211 of Anak, H6061 were. (Now Hebron H2275 was built H1129 seven H7651 years H8141 before H6440 Zoan H6814 in Egypt.) H4714 [23] And they came H935 unto H5704 the brook H5158§ of Eshcol, H812 and cut down H3772 from thence H8033 a branch H2156 with one H259 cluster H811 of grapes, H6025 and they bare it H5375 between two H8147 upon a staff; H4132 and they brought of H4480 the pomegranates, H7416 and of H4480 the figs. H8384 [24] The place H4725 H1931 was called H7121 the brook H5158§ Eshcol, H812 because of H5921 H182 the cluster of grapes H811 which H834 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cut down H3772 from thence. H8033 [25] And they returned H7725 from searching H8446 of the land H776 after H7093 forty H705 days. H3117 [26] And they went H3212 and came H935 to H413 Moses, H4872 and to H413 Aaron, H175 and to H413 all H3605 the congregation H5712 of the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 unto H413 the wilderness H4057 of Paran, H6290 to Kadesh; H6946 and brought back H7725 word H1697 unto them, H853 and unto H853 all H3605 the congregation, H5712 and shewed them H7200 H853 the fruit H6529 of the land. H776 [27] And they told H5608 him, and said, H559 We came H935 unto H413 the land H776 whither H834 thou sentest us, H7971 and surely H1571 it H1931 floweth H2100 with milk H2461 and honey; H1706 and this H2088 is the fruit of it. H6529 [28] Nevertheless H657 H3588 the people H5971 be strong H5794 that dwell H3427 in the land, H776 and the cities H5892 are walled, H1219 and very H3966 great: H1419 and moreover H1571 we saw H7200 the children H3211 of Anak H6061 there. H8033 [29] The Amalekites H6002 dwell H3427 in the land H776 of the south: H5045 and the Hittites, H2850 and the Jebusites, H2983 and the Amorites, H567 dwell H3427 in the mountains: H2022 and the Canaanites H3669 dwell H3427 by H5921 the sea, H3220 and by H5921 the coast H3027 of Jordan. H3383 [30] And Caleb H3612 stilled H2013 H853 the people H5971 before H413 Moses, H4872 and said, H559 Let us go up H5927 at once, H5927 and possess H3423 it; H853 for H3588 we are H3201 well H3201 able H3201 to overcome H3201 it. [31] But the men H582 that H834 went up H5927 with him H5973 said, H559 We be H3201 not H3808 able H3201 to go up H5927 against H413 the people; H5971 for H3588 they H1931 are stronger H2389 than we. H4480 [32] And they brought up H3318 an evil report H1681 of the land H776 which H834 they had searched H8446 H853 unto H413 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 saying, H559 The land, H776 through which H834 we have gone H5674 to search H8446 it, H853 is a land H776 that eateth up H398 the inhabitants thereof; H3427 H1931 and all H3605 the people H5971 that H834 we saw H7200 in it H8432 are men H582 of a great stature. H4060§ [33] And there H8033 we saw H7200 H853 the giants, H5303 the sons H1121 of Anak, H6061 which come of H4480 the giants: H5303 and we were H1961 in our own sight H5869 as grasshoppers, H2284 and so H3651 we were H1961 in their sight.
