Spies Sent into Canaan
1
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2
1"Send men to spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the people of Israel. From each tribe of their fathers you shall send a man, every one a chief among them."
3
So Moses sent them from 2the wilderness of Paran, according to the command of the LORD, all of them men who were heads of the people of Israel.
4
And these were their names: From the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur;
5
from the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori;
7
from the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph;
8
from the tribe of Ephraim, 5Hoshea the son of Nun;
9
from the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu;
10
from the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi;
11
from the tribe of Joseph (that is, from the tribe of Manasseh), Gaddi the son of Susi;
12
from the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli;
13
from the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael;
14
from the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi;
15
from the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.
16
These were the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called 6Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua.
17
Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan and said to them, "Go up into 7the Negeb and go up into 8the hill country,
18
and see what the land is, and whether the people who dwell in it are strong or weak, whether they are few or many,
19
and whether the land that they dwell in is good or bad, and whether the cities that they dwell in are camps or strongholds,
20
and whether the land is 9rich or poor, and whether there are trees in it or not. 10Be of good courage and bring some of the fruit of the land." Now the time was the season of the first ripe grapes.
21
So they went up and spied out the land 11from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, 12near Lebo-hamath.
22
They went up into 13the Negeb and came to 14Hebron. 15Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the 16descendants of Anak, were there. (17Hebron was built seven years before 18Zoan in Egypt.)
23
And 19they came to the Valley of Eshcol and cut down from there a branch with a single cluster of grapes, and they carried it on a pole between two of them; they also brought some pomegranates and figs.
24
That place was called the Valley of Eshcol,a because of the cluster that the people of Israel cut down from there.
