Settings

13:1Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, Compare
13:2Send men to spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the children of Israel; one man from each of their fathers' tribes you shall send, every one a leader among them. Compare
13:3So Moses sent them from the wilderness of Paran according to the commandment of Jehovah, all of them leading men among the children of Israel. Compare
13:4And these were their names: from the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur; Compare
13:5From the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori; Compare
13:6From the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh; Compare
13:7From the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph; Compare
13:8From the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Nun; Compare
13:9From the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu; Compare
13:10From the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi; Compare
13:11From the tribe of Joseph, that is, from the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi; Compare
13:12From the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli; Compare
13:13From the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael; Compare
13:14From the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi; Compare
13:15From the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi. Compare
13:16These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua. Compare
13:17And when Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, he said to them, Go up this way into the Negev, and go up into the hill country; Compare
13:18And see what the land is like; and whether the people who live in it are strong or weak, whether they are few or many; Compare
13:19And whether the land in which they dwell is good or bad; and whether the cities that they live in are like camps or with fortifications; Compare
13:20And whether the land is fat or lean; whether there are trees in it or not. Therefore strengthen yourselves and bring some of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the first ripe grapes. Compare
13:21So they went up and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, near the entrance of Hamath. Compare
13:22And when they had gone up through the Negev, they came to Hebron; and Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.) Compare
13:23Then they came to the Valley of Eshcol, and from there they cut down a branch with a single cluster of grapes; and they carried it on a pole between two of them. They also cut off some of the pomegranates and some of the figs. Compare
13:24That place was called the Valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from there. Compare
13:25And they returned from spying out the land at the end of forty days. Compare
13:26And they proceeded to come to Moses and to Aaron and to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, to the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and they brought back word to them and to the whole assembly, and showed them the fruit of the land. Compare
13:27And they told him and said, We came to the land into which you sent us; and it indeed flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit. Compare
13:28However, the people who dwell in the land are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large; and we also saw the descendants of Anak there. Compare
13:29The Amalekites dwell in the land of the Negev, and the Hittites and the Jebusites and the Amorites dwell in the hill country, and the Canaanites dwell by the sea and along the Jordan. Compare
13:30But Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, Let us go up at once and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it. Compare
13:31But the men who went up with him said, We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we. Compare
13:32And they brought to the children of Israel an evil report of the land which they had spied out, saying, The land, through which we have gone to spy it out, is a land that eats up its inhabitants; and all the people that we saw in it are men of great size. Compare
13:33And there we saw the Nephilim (the descendants of Anak are part of the Nephilim); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight. Compare
14:1Then the whole assembly lifted up their voice and cried, and the people wept that night. Compare
14:2And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron; and the whole assembly said to them, If only we had died in the land of Egypt! Or if only we had died in this wilderness! Compare
14:3And why does Jehovah bring us into this land to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will become plunder. Would it not be better for us to return to Egypt? Compare
14:4And they said one to another, Let us appoint a captain, and let us return to Egypt. Compare
14:5Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before the whole congregation of the assembly of the children of Israel. Compare
14:6And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were among those who spied out the land, tore their clothes. Compare
14:7And they spoke to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, saying, The land through which we passed to spy out is an exceedingly good land. Compare
14:8If Jehovah is pleased with us, He will bring us into this land and give it to us; a land which flows with milk and honey. Compare
14:9Only do not rebel against Jehovah, nor should you fear the people of the land, for they are our bread. Their protection has been removed from them, and Jehovah is with us; do not fear them. Compare
14:10But the whole assembly said to stone them with stones. Then the glory of Jehovah appeared in the Tent of Meeting to all the children of Israel. Compare
14:11And Jehovah said to Moses, How long will this people despise Me? And how long will they not believe in Me, in spite of all the signs that I have done among them? Compare
14:12I will strike them with pestilence and dispossess them, and I will make of you a nation greater and mightier than they. Compare
14:13But Moses said to Jehovah, Then the Egyptians will hear of it, for by Your might You brought this people up from their midst, Compare
14:14And they will tell the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that You, Jehovah, are in the midst of this people; for You, O Jehovah, are seen in plain sight, and Your cloud stands over them, and You go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night. Compare
14:15Now if You put this people to death as one man, then the nations that have heard the report about You will speak, saying, Compare
14:16Because Jehovah was not able to bring this people into the land which He swore to give them, He has therefore slaughtered them in the wilderness. Compare
14:17And now, I pray, let the power of the Lord be great, just as You have spoken, saying, Compare
14:18Jehovah is slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, forgiving iniquity and transgression; but He will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and the fourth generations. Compare
14:19Pardon, I pray, the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of Your lovingkindness, just as You have forgiven this people from Egypt even until now. Compare
14:20Then Jehovah said, I have pardoned them according to your word; Compare
14:21But as surely as I live, and as all the earth will be filled with the glory of Jehovah, Compare
14:22None of those men who have seen My glory and My signs, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have tried Me these ten times and have not listened to My voice, Compare
14:23Shall see the land which I swore to give to their fathers, nor shall any of those who despised Me see it. Compare
14:24Only My servant Caleb, because he had a different spirit and has fully followed Me, will I bring into the land which he entered; and his descendants shall take possession of it. Compare
14:25Now since the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwell in the valleys, turn tomorrow, and set out into the wilderness by the way that leads to the Red Sea. Compare
14:26Then Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, Compare
14:27How long shall I bear with this evil assembly, which murmurs against Me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they are making against Me. Compare
14:28Say to them, As I live, declares Jehovah, just as you have spoken in My ears, so will I do to you. Compare
14:29Your corpses shall fall in this wilderness, and none of you who were numbered, according to the number you counted from twenty years old and upward, who have murmured against Me, Compare
14:30Shall come into the land, in which I swore to settle you, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun. Compare
14:31But your little ones, whom you said would become plunder, I will bring in, and they will know the land which you have rejected. Compare
14:32But as for you, your corpses shall fall in this wilderness. Compare
14:33And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and they shall suffer for your unfaithfulness until your corpses have been consumed in the wilderness. Compare
14:34According to the number of the days which you spied out the land, forty days, a year for every day, you shall bear your iniquities, forty years; and you shall know My displeasure. Compare
14:35I, Jehovah, have spoken; surely I will do this to all this evil assembly who are gathered together against Me. In this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die. Compare
14:36And the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land, who returned and made the whole assembly to murmur against him by bringing up an evil report against the land, Compare
14:37That is, those men who brought up an evil report of the land, died by the plague before Jehovah. Compare
14:38Only Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh remained alive out of those men who went to spy out the land. Compare
14:39And when Moses spoke these words to all the children of Israel, the people mourned greatly. Compare
14:40And they rose up early in the morning to go up to the top of the mountain, saying, Here we are; now we will go up to the place which Jehovah has spoken of, for we have sinned. Compare
14:41But Moses said, Why do you again transgress the commandment of Jehovah? This will not succeed. Compare
14:42Do not go up-for Jehovah is not among you-so that you are not struck down before your enemies. Compare
14:43For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and you shall fall by the sword. Because you have turned back from following Jehovah, therefore Jehovah will not be with you. Compare
14:44But they presumed to go up to the top of the mountain, even though neither the Ark of the Covenant of Jehovah nor Moses had departed out of the midst of the camp. Compare
14:45Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who dwelt in that hill country came down and struck them and beat them back as far as Hormah. Compare
