        Numbers 13

<p>

      
         1.  And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
      
    <br/>

      
         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.
      
    <br/>

      
         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.
      
    </p>

<p>

      
        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:
      
    <br/>

      
         18.  And see the land, what it is, and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they be 
        strong or weak, few or many;
      
    <br/>

      
         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;
      
    <br/>

      
         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.
      
    <br/>

      
         21.  So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob, as men 
        come to Hamath.
      
    <br/>

      
         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.)
      
    <br/>

      
         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.
      
    <br/>

      
         24.  The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the 
        children of Israel cut down from thence.
      
    <br/>

      
         25.  And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.
      
    <br/>

      
         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.
      
    <br/>

      
         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.
      
    <br/>

      
         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.
