ثُمَّ كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
And there the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
«أَرْسِلْ رِجَالًا لِيَتَجَسَّسُوا أَرْضَ كَنْعَانَ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا مُعْطِيهَا لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. رَجُلًا وَاحِدًا لِكُلِّ سِبْطٍ مِنْ آبَائِهِ تُرْسِلُونَ. كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ رَئِيسٌ فِيهِمْ». | ٢ 2 |
Send men to view the land of Chanaan, which I will give to the children of Israel, one of every tribe, of the rulers.
فَأَرْسَلَهُمْ مُوسَى مِنْ بَرِّيَّةِ فَارَانَ حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ. كُلُّهُمْ رِجَالٌ هُمْ رُؤَسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، | ٣ 3 |
Moses did what the Lord had commanded, sending from the desert of Pharan, principal men, whose names are these:
وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاؤُهُمْ: مِنْ سِبْطِ رَأُوبَيْنَ شَمُّوعُ بْنُ زَكُّورَ. | ٤ 4 |
Of the tribe of Ruben, Sammua the son of Zechur.
مِنْ سِبْطِ شِمْعُونَ شَافَاطُ ٱبْنُ حُورِي. | ٥ 5 |
Of the tribe of Simeon, Saphat the son of Hurl.
مِنْ سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا كَالِبُ بْنُ يَفُنَّةَ. | ٦ 6 |
Of the tribe of Juda, Caleb the son of Jephone.
مِنْ سِبْطِ يَسَّاكَرَ يَجْآلُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ. | ٧ 7 |
Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph.
مِنْ سِبْطِ أَفْرَايِمَ هُوشَعُ بْنُ نُونَ. | ٨ 8 |

Of the tribe of Benjamin, Phalti the son of Raphu.
مِنْ سِبْطِ زَبُولُونَ جَدِّيئِيلُ بْنُ سُودِي. | ١٠ 10 |
Of the tribe of Zabulon, Geddiel the son of Sodi.
مِنْ سِبْطِ يُوسُفَ مِنْ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى جِدِّي بْنُ سُوسِي. | ١١ 11 |
Of the tribe of Joseph, of the sceptre of Manasses, Gaddi the son of Susi.
مِنْ سِبْطِ دَانَ عَمِّيئِيلُ بْنُ جَمَلِّي. | ١٢ 12 |

مِنْ سِبْطِ نَفْتَالِي نَحْبِي بْنُ وَفْسِي. | ١٤ 14 |
Of the tribe of Nephtali, Nahabi the son of Vapsi.
مِنْ سِبْطِ جَادَ جَأُوئِيلُ بْنُ مَاكِي. | ١٥ 15 |
Of the tribe of Gad, Guel the son of Machi.
هَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَرْسَلَهُمْ مُوسَى لِيَتَجَسَّسُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ. وَدَعَا مُوسَى هُوشَعَ بْنَ نُونَ «يَشُوعَ». | ١٦ 16 |
These are the names of the men, whom Moses sent to view the land: and he called Osee the son of Nun, Josue.
فَأَرْسَلَهُمْ مُوسَى لِيَتَجَسَّسُوا أَرْضَ كَنْعَانَ، وَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱصْعَدُوا مِنْ هُنَا إِلَى ٱلْجَنُوبِ وَٱطْلَعُوا إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ، | ١٧ 17 |
And Moses sent them to view the land of Chanaan, and said to them: Go you up by the south side. And when you shall come to the mountains,
وَٱنْظُرُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ، مَا هِيَ: وَٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلسَّاكِنَ فِيهَا، أَقَوِيٌّ هُوَ أَمْ ضَعِيفٌ؟ قَلِيلٌ أَمْ كَثِيرٌ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
View the land, of what sort it is: and the people that are the inhabitants thereof, whether they be strong or weak: few in number or many:
وَكَيْفَ هِيَ ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي هُوَ سَاكِنٌ فِيهَا، أَجَيِّدَةٌ أَمْ رَدِيَّةٌ؟ وَمَا هِيَ ٱلْمُدُنُ ٱلَّتِي هُوَ سَاكِنٌ فِيهَا، أَمُخَيَّمَاتٌ أَمْ حُصُونٌ؟ | ١٩ 19 |
The land itself, whether it be good or bad: what manner of cities, walled or without walls:
وَكَيْفَ هِيَ ٱلْأَرْضُ، أَسَمِينَةٌ أَمْ هَزِيلَةٌ؟ أَفِيهَا شَجَرٌ أَمْ لَا؟ وَتَشَدَّدُوا فَخُذُوا مِنْ ثَمَرِ ٱلْأَرْضِ». وَأَمَّا ٱلْأَيَّامُ فَكَانَتْ أَيَّامَ بَاكُورَاتِ ٱلْعِنَبِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
The ground, fat or barren, woody or without trees. Be of good courage, and bring us of the fruits of the land. Now it was the time when the first ripe grapes are fit to be eaten.
فَصَعِدُوا وَتَجَسَّسُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ مِنْ بَرِّيَّةِ صِينَ إِلَى رَحُوبَ فِي مَدْخَلِ حَمَاةَ. | ٢١ 21 |
And when they were gone up, they viewed the land from the desert of Sin, unto Rohob as you enter into Emath.
صَعِدُوا إِلَى ٱلْجَنُوبِ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى حَبْرُونَ. وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ أَخِيمَانُ وَشِيشَايُ وَتَلْمَايُ بَنُو عَنَاقٍ. وَأَمَّا حَبْرُونُ فَبُنِيَتْ قَبْلَ صُوعَنِ مِصْرَ بِسَبْعِ سِنِينَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And they went up at the south side, and came to Hebron, where were Achiman and Sisai and Tholmai the sons of Enac. For Hebron was built seven years before Tanis the city of Egypt.
وَأَتَوْا إِلَى وَادِي أَشْكُولَ، وَقَطَفُوا مِنْ هُنَاكَ زَرَجُونَةً بِعُنْقُودٍ وَاحِدٍ مِنَ ٱلْعِنَبِ، وَحَمَلُوهُ بِٱلدُّقْرَانَةِ بَيْنَ ٱثْنَيْنِ، مَعَ شَيْءٍ مِنَ ٱلرُّمَّانِ وَٱلتِّينِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
And going forward as far as the torrent of the cluster of grapes, they cut off a branch with its cluster of grapes, which two men carried upon a lever. They took also of the pomegranates and of the figs of that place:
فَدُعِيَ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَوْضِعُ «وَادِيَ أَشْكُولَ» بِسَبَبِ ٱلْعُنْقُودِ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعَهُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Which was called Nehelescol, that is to say, the torrent of the cluster of grapes, because from thence the children of Israel had carried a cluster of grapes.
ثُمَّ رَجَعُوا مِنْ تَجَسُّسِ ٱلْأَرْضِ بَعْدَ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا. | ٢٥ 25 |
And they that went to spy out the land returned after forty days, having gone round all the country,
فَسَارُوا حَتَّى أَتَوْا إِلَى مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ وَكُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِلَى بَرِّيَّةِ فَارَانَ، إِلَى قَادَشَ، وَرَدُّوا إِلَيْهِمَا خَبَرًا وَإِلَى كُلِّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ وَأَرَوْهُمْ ثَمَرَ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And came to Moses and Aaron and to all the assembly of the children of Israel to the desert of Pharan, which is in Cades. And speaking to them and to all the multitude, they shewed them the fruits of the land:
وَأَخْبَرُوهُ وَقَالُوا: «قَدْ ذَهَبْنَا إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَرْسَلْتَنَا إِلَيْهَا، وَحَقًّا إِنَّهَا تَفِيضُ لَبَنًا وَعَسَلًا، وَهَذَا ثَمَرُهَا. | ٢٧ 27 |
And they related and said: We came into the land to which thou sentest us, which in very deed floweth with milk and honey as may be known by these fruits:
غَيْرَ أَنَّ ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلسَّاكِنَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ مُعْتَزٌّ، وَٱلْمُدُنُ حَصِينَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ جِدًّا. وَأَيْضًا قَدْ رَأَيْنَا بَنِي عَنَاقَ هُنَاكَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
But it hath very strong inhabitants, and the cities are great and walled. We saw there the race of Enac.
ٱلْعَمَالِقَةُ سَاكِنُونَ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، وَٱلْحِثِّيُّونَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيُّونَ وَٱلْأَمُورِيُّونَ سَاكِنُونَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، وَٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ سَاكِنُونَ عِنْدَ ٱلْبَحْرِ وَعَلَى جَانِبِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ». | ٢٩ 29 |
Amalec dwelleth in the south, the Hethite and the Jebusite and the Amorrhite in the mountains: but the Chanaanite abideth by the sea and near the streams of the Jordan.
لَكِنْ كَالِبُ أَنْصَتَ ٱلشَّعْبَ إِلَى مُوسَى وَقَالَ: «إِنَّنَا نَصْعَدُ وَنَمْتَلِكُهَا لِأَنَّنَا قَادِرُونَ عَلَيْهَا». | ٣٠ 30 |
In the mean time Caleb, to still the murmuring of the people that rose against Moses, said: Let us go up and possess the land, for we shall be able to conquer it.
وَأَمَّا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ صَعِدُوا مَعَهُ فَقَالُوا: «لَا نَقْدِرْ أَنْ نَصْعَدَ إِلَى ٱلشَّعْبِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ أَشَدُّ مِنَّا». | ٣١ 31 |
But the others, that had been with him, said: No, we are not able to go up to this people, because they are stronger than we.
فَأَشَاعُوا مَذَمَّةَ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي تَجَسَّسُوهَا، فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلِينَ: «ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي مَرَرْنَا فِيهَا لِنَتَجَسَّسَهَا هِيَ أَرْضٌ تَأْكُلُ سُكَّانَهَا، وَجَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي رَأَيْنَا فِيهَا أُنَاسٌ طِوَالُ ٱلْقَامَةِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
And they spoke ill of the land, which they had viewed, before the children of Israel, saying: The land which we have viewed, devoureth its inhabitants: the people, that we beheld, are of a tall stature.
وَقَدْ رَأَيْنَا هُنَاكَ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةَ، بَنِي عَنَاقٍ مِنَ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ. فَكُنَّا فِي أَعْيُنِنَا كَٱلْجَرَادِ، وَهَكَذَا كُنَّا فِي أَعْيُنِهِمْ». | ٣٣ 33 |
There we saw certain monsters of the sons of Enac, of the giant kind: in comparison of whom, we seemed like locusts.
