13:1 The
LORD
spoke
to
Moses,
saying,
13:2 "Send
men
to
spy
out
the
land
of
Canaan,
which
I
am
giving
to
the
people
of
Israel.
From
each
tribe
of
their
fathers
you
shall
send
a
man,
every
one
a
chief
among
them."
13:3 So
Moses
sent
them
from
the
wilderness
of
Paran,
according
to
the
command
of
the
LORD,
all
of
them
men
who
were
heads
of
the
people
of
Israel.
13:4 And
these
were
their
names:
From
the
tribe
of
Reuben,
Shammua
the
son
of
Zaccur;
13:5 from
the
tribe
of
Simeon,
Shaphat
the
son
of
Hori;
13:6 from
the
tribe
of
Judah,
Caleb
the
son
of
Jephunneh;
13:7 from
the
tribe
of
Issachar,
Igal
the
son
of
Joseph;
13:8 from
the
tribe
of
Ephraim,
Hoshea
the
son
of
Nun;
13:9 from
the
tribe
of
Benjamin,
Palti
the
son
of
Raphu;
13:10 from
the
tribe
of
Zebulun,
Gaddiel
the
son
of
Sodi;
13:11 from
the
tribe
of
Joseph
(that
is,
from
the
tribe
of
Manasseh),
Gaddi
the
son
of
Susi;
13:12 from
the
tribe
of
Dan,
Ammiel
the
son
of
Gemalli;
13:13 from
the
tribe
of
Asher,
Sethur
the
son
of
Michael;
13:14 from
the
tribe
of
Naphtali,
Nahbi
the
son
of
Vophsi;
13:15 from
the
tribe
of
Gad,
Geuel
the
son
of
Machi.
13:16 These
were
the
names
of
the
men
whom
Moses
sent
to
spy
out
the
land.
And
Moses
called
Hoshea
the
son
of
Nun
Joshua.
13:17 Moses
sent
them
to
spy
out
the
land
of
Canaan
and
said
to
them,
"Go
up
into
the
Negeb
and
go
up
into
the
hill
country,
13:18 and
see
what
the
land
is,
and
whether
the
people
who
dwell
in
it
are
strong
or
weak,
whether
they
are
few
or
many,
13:19 and
whether
the
land
that
they
dwell
in
is
good
or
bad,
and
whether
the
cities
that
they
dwell
in
are
camps
or
strongholds,
13:20 and
whether
the
land
is
rich
or
poor,
and
whether
there
are
trees
in
it
or
not.
Be
of
good
courage
and
bring
some
of
the
fruit
of
the
land."
Now
the
time
was
the
season
of
the
first
ripe
grapes.
13:21 So
they
went
up
and
spied
out
the
land
from
the
wilderness
of
Zin
to
Rehob,
near
Lebo-hamath.
13:22 They
went
up
into
the
Negeb
and
came
to
Hebron.
Ahiman,
Sheshai,
and
Talmai,
the
descendants
of
Anak,
were
there.
(Hebron
was
built
seven
years
before
Zoan
in
Egypt.)
13:23 And
they
came
to
the
Valley
of
Eshcol
and
cut
down
from
there
a
branch
with
a
single
cluster
of
grapes,
and
they
carried
it
on
a
pole
between
two
of
them;
they
also
brought
some
pomegranates
and
figs.
13:24 That
place
was
called
the
Valley
of
Eshcol,
because
of
the
cluster
that
the
people
of
Israel
cut
down
from
there.
13:25 At
the
end
of
forty
days
they
returned
from
spying
out
the
land.
13:26 And
they
came
to
Moses
and
Aaron
and
to
all
the
congregation
of
the
people
of
Israel
in
the
wilderness
of
Paran,
at
Kadesh.
They
brought
back
word
to
them
and
to
all
the
congregation,
and
showed
them
the
fruit
of
the
land.
13:27 And
they
told
him,
"We
came
to
the
land
to
which
you
sent
us.
It
flows
with
milk
and
honey,
and
this
is
its
fruit.
13:28 However,
the
people
who
dwell
in
the
land
are
strong,
and
the
cities
are
fortified
and
very
large.
And
besides,
we
saw
the
descendants
of
Anak
there.
13:29 The
Amalekites
dwell
in
the
land
of
the
Negeb.
The
Hittites,
the
Jebusites,
and
the
Amorites
dwell
in
the
hill
country.
And
the
Canaanites
dwell
by
the
sea,
and
along
the
Jordan."
13:30 But
Caleb
quieted
the
people
before
Moses
and
said,
"Let
us
go
up
at
once
and
occupy
it,
for
we
are
well
able
to
overcome
it."
13:31 Then
the
men
who
had
gone
up
with
him
said,
"We
are
not
able
to
go
up
against
the
people,
for
they
are
stronger
than
we
are."
13:32 So
they
brought
to
the
people
of
Israel
a
bad
report
of
the
land
that
they
had
spied
out,
saying,
"The
land,
through
which
we
have
gone
to
spy
it
out,
is
a
land
that
devours
its
inhabitants,
and
all
the
people
that
we
saw
in
it
are
of
great
height.
13:33 And
there
we
saw
the
Nephilim
(the
sons
of
Anak,
who
come
from
the
Nephilim),
and
we
seemed
to
ourselves
like
grasshoppers,
and
so
we
seemed
to
them."
