- Kapitel 13 -

(Deuteronomy 1:19–25)
1
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2
Send men for yourself, and they spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the sons of Israel; one manyou send one man for the tribe of his fathers, everyone a prince among them.”
3
And Moses sends them from the wilderness of Paran by the command of YHWH; all of them [are] men, [and] they are heads of the sons of Israel,
4
and these [are] their names: for the tribe of Reuben, Shammua son of Zaccur;
5
for the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat son of Hori;
6
for the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;
7
for the tribe of Issachar, Igal son of Joseph;
8
for the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea son of Nun;
9
for the tribe of Benjamin, Palti son of Raphu;
10
for the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel son of Sodi;
11
for the tribe of Joseph (for the tribe of Manasseh), Gaddi son of Susi;
12
for the tribe of Dan, Ammiel son of Gemalli;
13
for the tribe of Asher, Sethur son of Michael;
14
for the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi son of Vopshi;
15
for the tribe of Gad, Geuel son of Machi.
16
These [are] the names of the men whom Moses has sent to spy out the land; and Moses calls Hoshea son of Nun, Joshua.
17
And Moses sends them to spy out the land of Canaan and says to them, “Go up this [way] into the south, and you have gone up the mountain,
18
and have seen the land, what it [is], and the people which is dwelling on it, whether it [is] strong or feeble, [and] whether it [is] few or many;
19
and what the land [is] in which it is dwelling, whether it [is] good or bad; and what [are] the cities in which it is dwelling, whether in camps or in fortresses.
20
And what the land [is], whether it [is] fat or lean; whether there is wood in it or not; and you have strengthened yourselves, and have taken of the fruit of the land”; now the days [are] days of the first-fruits of grapes.
21
And they go up and spy out the land, from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob at the going in to Hamath;
22
and they go up by the south, and come to Hebron, and there [are] Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, children of Anak (and Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt),
23
and they come to the Brook of Eshcol, and cut down a branch and one cluster of grapes there, and they carry it on a staff by two, also [some] of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
24
That place has been called the Brook of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the sons of Israel cut from there.

The Reports of the Spies

25
And they return from spying out the land at the end of forty days.
26
And they go and come to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, to the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and they bring them and all the congregation back word, and show them the fruit of the land.
27
And they recount to him, and say, “We came to the land to where you have sent us, and it is indeed flowing with milk and honeyand this [is] its fruit;
28
only, surely the people which is dwelling in the land [is] strong; and the cities are fortified [and] very great; and we have also seen children of Anak there.
29
Amalek is dwelling in the land of the south, and the Hittite, and the Jebusite, and the Amorite are dwelling in the hill country, and the Canaanite is dwelling by the sea, and by the side of the Jordan.”
30
And Caleb stills the people concerning Moses and says, “Let us certainly go upand we have possessed it; for we are thoroughly able to [do] it.”
31
And the men who have gone up with him said, “We are not able to go up against the people, for it [is] stronger than we”;
32
and they bring out an evil account of the land which they have spied out to the sons of Israel, saying, “The land into which we passed over to spy it out is a land eating up its inhabitants; and all the people whom we saw in its midst [are] men of stature;
33
and there we saw the giants, sons of Anak, of the giants; and we are as grasshoppers in our own eyesand so we were in their eyes.”
(Deuteronomy 1:19–25)
1
The LORD 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 the LORD. 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.

The Reports of the Spies

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,(a) the sons of Anak, who come from the Nephilim.(b) We were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.”
