-
耶和华对摩西说，
- 13:2 Send 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.
-
你打发人去窥探我所赐给以色列人的迦南地，他们每宗族支派中要打发一个人，都要作首领的。

- 13:17 And 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;
-
摩西打发他们去窥探迦南地，对他们说，你们从这里上南地，然后上山地去，
- 13:18 And see what the land is like; and whether the people who live in it are strong or weak, whether they are few or many;
-
看那地如何，其中所住的民是强是弱，是多是少，
- 13:19 And 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;
-
他们所住之地是好是坏，所住之处是营盘是坚城，
- 13:20 And 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.
-
那地是肥美是贫瘠，其中有树木没有。你们要壮胆，把那地的果子带些来。那时正是葡萄初熟的时候。
- 13:21 So they went up and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, near the entrance of Hamath.

- 13:22 And 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.)
-
他们从南地上去，到了希伯仑；在那里有亚衲人的后代亚希幔、示筛、挞买。(原来希伯仑城比埃及的锁安城早建七年。)
- 13:23 Then 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.
-
他们到了以实各谷，从那里砍了葡萄树的一枝，上头有一挂葡萄，两个人用杠抬着，又带了些石榴和无花果来。
- 13:24 That place was called the Valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from there.
-
因为以色列人从那里砍来的那挂葡萄，所以那地方叫作以实各谷。
- 13:25 And they returned from spying out the land at the end of forty days.
-
过了四十天，他们窥探那地回来，
- 13:26 And 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 brought back word to them and to the whole assembly, and showed them the fruit of the land.
-
到了巴兰旷野的加低斯，来见摩西、亚伦、并以色列人全会众，回报摩西、亚伦、并全会众，又把那地的果子给他们看；
- 13:27 And 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.

但那些和他同去的人说，我们不能上去攻击那民，因为他们比我们强壮。
- 13:32 And 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.
-
那些探子论到所窥探之地，向以色列人报恶信，说，我们所经过、窥探之地，是吞吃居民之地，我们在那里所看见的人民都身量高大。
- 13:33 And 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.
-
我们在那里看见拿非利人；(亚衲人的子孙就是拿非利人的一支；)我们看自己就如蚱蜢一样，他们看我们也是如此。
