Numbers 13
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying,
2 Send thou men, that they may search
the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel: of
every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a
ruler among them.
3 And Moses by the commandment of the
LORD sent them from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were
heads of the children of Israel.
4 And 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, Oshea 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, namely, 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
which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the
son of Nun Jehoshua.
17 And Moses sent them to spy out the
land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you up this way southward,
and go up into the mountain:
18 And see the land, what it is, and
the people that dwelleth therein, whether they be strong or weak,
few or many;
19 And what the land is that they
dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that
they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;
20 And what the land is, whether it
be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And be ye
of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time
was the time of the firstripe grapes.
21 So they went up, and searched the
land from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath.
22 And they ascended by the south,
and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the
children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before
Zoan in Egypt.)
23 And they came unto the brook of
Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with one cluster of
grapes, and they bare it between two upon a staff; and they
brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
24 The place was called the brook
Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of
Israel cut down from thence.
25 And they returned from searching
of the land after forty days.
26 And they went and came to Moses,
and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of
Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back
word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them
the fruit of the land.
27 And they told him, and said, We
came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth
with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.
28 Nevertheless the people be strong
that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled, and very great:
and moreover we saw the children of Anak there.
29 The Amalekites dwell in
the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and
the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by
the sea, and by the coast of Jordan.
30 And Caleb stilled the people
before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for
we are well able to overcome it.
31 But the men that went up with him
said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are
stronger than we.
32 And they brought up an evil report
of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel,
saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a
land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the
people that we saw in it are men of a great stature.
33 And
there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the
giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers,
and so we were in their sight.
Numbers 26
1 And it came to pass after the
plague, that the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Eleazar the son

congregation of the children of Israel, from twenty years old and

to war in Israel.
3 And Moses and Eleazar the priest

54 To many thou shalt give the more
inheritance, and to few thou shalt give the less inheritance: to
every one shall his inheritance be given according to those that
were numbered of him.

They shall surely die in the wilderness. And there was not left a
man of them, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son
of Nun.
