Numbers 13:17-29

17When MosesH4872 sentH7971 themH853 to spy outH8446 the landH776 of CanaanH3667, he toldH559 themH413, “Go upH5927 through the NegevH5045 andH5927 into the hill countryH2022. 18SeeH7200 whatH4100 the landH776 is likeH1931 andH853 whether its peopleH5971 are strongH2389H1931 or weakH7504, fewH4592H1931 orH518 manyH7227. 19Is the landH776 whereH834 theyH1931 liveH3427 goodH2896 orH518 badH7451H4100? Are the citiesH5892 whereH834 theyH1931 dwellH3427 open campsH4264 orH518 fortificationsH4013? 20Is the soilH776 fertileH8082H1931 orH518 unproductiveH7330? Are thereH3426 treesH6086 in it orH518 notH369? Be courageousH2388 and bring backH3947 some of the fruitH6529 of the landH776.” (It was the seasonH3117 for the first ripeH1061 grapesH6025.)

21So they went upH5927 and spied outH8446 the landH776 from the WildernessH4057 of ZinH6790 asH5704 far as RehobH7340, toward Lebo-hamathH935H2574. 22They went upH5927 through the NegevH5045 and cameH935 toH5704 HebronH2275, whereH8033 AhimanH289, SheshaiH8344, and TalmaiH8526, the descendantsH3211 of AnakH6061, dwelledH2275. It had been builtH1129 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 beforeH6440 ZoanH6814 in EgyptH4714.

23When they cameH935 toH5704 the ValleyH5158 of EshcolH812,1 they cut downH3772H8033 a branchH2156 with a singleH259 clusterH811 of grapesH6025, which they carriedH5375 on a poleH4132 between two menH8147. They also took someH4480 pomegranatesH7416H4480 and figsH8384. 24Because ofH5921H182 the clusterH811 of grapes the IsraelitesH1121H3478 cutH3772 thereH8033, thatH1931 placeH4725 was calledH7121 the ValleyH5158 of EshcolH812.

25AfterH7093 fortyH705 daysH3117 the men returnedH7725 from spying outH8446 the landH776, 26and they went backH1980H935 toH413 MosesH4872, AaronH175H413, and the wholeH3605 congregationH5712H1121 of IsraelH3478 inH413 the WildernessH4057 of ParanH6290 at KadeshH6946. They brought backH7725 a reportH1697 for the wholeH3605 congregationH5712 and showedH7200 themH853 the fruitH6529 of the landH776.

27And they gave this accountH5608 toH559 Moses: “We wentH935 intoH413 the landH776 to whichH834 you sent usH7971, and indeedH1571, itH1931 is flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706. Here isH2088 some of its fruitH6529! 28NeverthelessH657H3588, the peopleH5971 livingH3427 in the landH776 are strongH5794, and the citiesH5892H1219 are largeH1419 and fortifiedH3966. We evenH1571 sawH7200 the descendantsH3211 of AnakH6061 thereH8033. 29The AmalekitesH6002 liveH3427 in the landH776 of the NegevH5045; the HittitesH2850, JebusitesH2983, and AmoritesH567 liveH3427 in the hill countryH2022; and the CanaanitesH3669 liveH3427 byH5921 the seaH3220 and alongH5921H3027 the JordanH3383.”
