Numbers 13:20-28

²⁰And whether the land is rich or poor; whether it hath trees or not: and you, be of good courage, and bring of the fruits of the land. And the days were the days of the first grapes.

²¹And they went up, and explored the country, from the wilderness of Zin unto Rechob, to come unto Hamath.

²²And they went up by the south, and came to Hebron; and there were Achiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, sons of the giants; (and Hebron was built seven years before Tanis of Mizraim.)

²³And they came to the Stream of Grapes, and cut down there a branch, with one cluster of grapes, and carried it on a staff between two; and (they took also) of the pomegranates, and of the figs.

²⁴That place was called the Stream of Grapes, on account of the grapes (athkela) which the sons of Israel cut down from thence.

²⁵And they returned from the exploration of the country at the end of forty days.

²⁶And they went and came to Mosheh, and to Aharon, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel at the wilderness of Pharan, at Rekam, and returned the word to them, and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land.

²⁷And they recounted to him, and said: We came to the land whither thou didst send us, and truly it doth produce milk and honey, and this is the fruit of it.

²⁸But very mighty are the people who inhabit the land, and the cities are fortified and very great; and we saw, also, the sons of the giants there.
