Numbers 13:12-28

¹²Of the tribe of Dan, Amiel the son of Gamali.

¹³Of the tribe of Aser, Sathur the son of Michael.

¹⁴Of the tribe of Nephthali, Nabi the son of Sabi.

¹⁵Of the tribe of Gad, Gudiel the son of Macchi.

¹⁶These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land; and Moses called Ause the son of Naue, Joshua.

¹⁷And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Chanaan, and said to them, Go up by this wilderness; and ye shall go up to the mountain,

¹⁸and ye shall see the land, what it is, and the people that dwells on it, whether it is strong or weak, or whether they are few or many.

¹⁹And what the land is on which they dwell, whether it is good or bad; and what the cities are wherein these dwell, whether they dwell in walled cities or unwalled.

²⁰And what the land is, whether rich or poor; whether there are trees in it or no: and ye shall persevere and take of the fruits of the land: and the days were the days of spring, the forerunners of the grape.

²¹And they went up and surveyed the land from the wilderness of Sin to Rhoob, as men go in to Æmath.

²²And they went up by the wilderness, and departed as far as Chebron; and there was Achiman, and Sessi, and Thelami, the progeny of Enach. Now Chebron was built seven years before Tanin of Egypt.

²³And they came to the valley of the cluster and surveyed it; and they cut down thence a bough and one cluster of grapes upon it, and bore it on staves, and they took of the pomegranates and the figs.

²⁴And they called that place, The valley of the cluster, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from thence.

²⁵And they returned from thence, having surveyed the land, after forty days.

²⁶And they proceeded and came to Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel, to the wilderness of Pharan Cades; and they brought word to them and to all the congregation, and they shewed the fruit of the land:

²⁷and they reported to him, and said, We came into the land into which thou sentest us, a land flowing with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.

²⁸Only the nation that dwells upon it is bold, and they have very great and strong walled towns, and we saw there the children of Enach.
