Numbers 13
1 And the Lord said to Moses,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
2 Send men to get knowledge about the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the children of Israel; from every tribe of their fathers you are to send a man, every one a chief among them.
“Ziga ụfọdụ ndị ikom ka ha gaa legharịa anya nʼala Kenan, ala ahụ m na-enye Izrel. Ziga mmadụ iri na abụọ, otu onyendu site nʼebo Izrel ọbụla.”
3 And Moses sent them from the waste land of Paran as the Lord gave orders, all of them men who were heads of the children of Israel.
Ya mere, dịka iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere ya si dị, Mosis zipụrụ ha site nʼọzara Paran. Ha niile bụ ndị ndu nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel.
4 And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua, the son of Zaccur.
Nke a bụ aha ha: Site nʼebo Ruben, Shamua nwa Zakua,

16 These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to get knowledge about the land. And Moses gave to Hoshea, the son of Nun, the name of Joshua.
Ndị a bụ aha ndị ikom ndị ahụ Mosis zipụrụ inyocha ala ahụ. (Ọ bụ nʼoge a ka Mosis gbanwere aha Hoshea nwa Nun, ka ọ bụrụ Joshua.)
17 So Moses sent them to have a look at the land of Canaan, and said to them, Go up into the South and into the hill-country;
Mosis zipụrụ ha ịga ledoo ala Kenan, ọ sịrị, “Gbagoonụ site nʼụzọ Negev gakwanụ nʼala ugwu ugwu.
18 And see what the land is like; and if the people living in it are strong or feeble, small or great in number;
Letanụ otu ala ahụ dị. Chọpụtanụ ụdị ndị bi nʼime ya, ma ha dị ike ma ha bụ ndị na-adịghị ike, ma ha dị ọtụtụ ma ha dị ole na ole.
19 And what sort of land they are living in, if it is good or bad; and what their living-places are, tent-circles or walled towns;
Letanụ ụdị ala ha bi nʼime ya, ma ọ dị mma ma ọ jọrọ njọ. Chọpụtanụ ụdị obodo dị nʼebe ahụ, ma ha bụ obodo mgbidi na-adịghị gburugburu ha, ma ha bụ obodo e wusiri ike.
20 And if the land is fertile or poor, and if there is wood in it or not. And be of good heart, and come back with some of the produce of the land. Now it was the time when the first grapes were ready.
Letanụ otu ala ahụ dị. Ọ na-epupụta ihe ka ọ bụ ala ụkpa? Letanụ ma ha nwere ọtụtụ osisi ka ọ bụ na osisi adịghị nʼime ya. Gbalịanụ ka unu weta ụfọdụ nʼime mkpụrụ osisi dị nʼala ahụ.” (Ọ bụ oge mkpụrụ mbụ nke osisi vaịnị.)
21 So they went up and got a view of the land, from the waste land of Zin to Rehob, on the way to Hamath.
Ya mere ndị a gara ledoo ala ahụ anya site nʼọzara Zin ruo na Rehob, nke dị nso na Lebo Hamat.
22 They went up into the South and came to Hebron; and Ahiman and Sheshai and Talmai, the children of Anak, were living there. (Now the building of Hebron took place seven years before that of Zoan in Egypt.)
Ha gara site na Negev rute Hebrọn, ebe Ahiman na Sheshai na Talmai, ụmụ ụmụ Anak bi. (Ma ewuru Hebrọn afọ asaa tupu e wuo obodo Zoan dị nʼIjipt.)
23 And they came to the valley of Eshcol, and cutting down a vine-branch with its grapes, two of them took it on a rod between them; and they took some pomegranates and figs.
Mgbe ha rutere Ndagwurugwu Eshkọl, ha gbutere otu alaka osisi vaịnị nke nwere ụyọkọ mkpụrụ vaịnị. Mmadụ abụọ butere ya nʼosisi tinyere ụfọdụ mkpụrụ osisi pomegranet na fiig.
24 That place was named the valley of Eshcol because of the grapes which the children of Israel took from there.
A kpọrọ ebe ahụ Ndagwurugwu Eshkọl, nʼihi ụyọkọ mkpụrụ osisi vaịnị ndị Izrel gbutere nʼebe ahụ.
25 At the end of forty days they came back from viewing the land.
Mgbe iri abalị anọ gasịrị, ndị nledo a sitere nʼije ha lọghachi.
26 And they came back to Moses and Aaron and all the children of Israel, to Kadesh in the waste land of Paran; and gave an account to them and to all the people and let them see the produce of the land.
Ha lọtara bịakwute Mosis na Erọn na nzukọ niile nke ụmụ Izrel, na Kadesh nke dị nʼọzara Paran. Ndị nledo ahụ kọrọ akụkọ otu ha si gaa nʼọgbakọ ụmụ Izrel niile. Gosikwa mkpụrụ osisi si nʼala ahụ.
27 And they said, We came to the land where you sent us, and truly it is flowing with milk and honey: and here is some of the produce of it.
Nke a bụ akụkọ ha kọọrọ Mosis, “Anyị ruru nʼala ahụ ị sị anyị gaa leta. Ọ bụkwa ala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya. Ndị a bụ mkpụrụ osisi si nʼala ahụ.
28 But the people living in the land are strong, and the towns are walled and very great; further, we saw the children of Anak there.
Ma ndị bi nʼobodo ahụ siri ike. Obodo ha buru ibu bụrụkwa nke e wusiri ike. Anyị hụkwara ụmụ ụmụ Anak nʼebe ahụ.
29 And the Amalekites are in the South; and the Hittites and the Jebusites and the Amorites are living in the hill-country; and the Canaanites by the sea and by the side of Jordan.
Ndị Amalek bi na Negev, ndị Het na ndị Jebus na ndị Amọrait bi nʼala ugwu ugwu. Ma nʼakụkụ osimiri Mediterenịan na ndagwurugwu mmiri Jọdan ka ndị Kenan bi.”
30 Then Caleb made signs to the people to keep quiet, and said to Moses, Let us go up straight away and take this land; for we are well able to overcome it.
Ma Kaleb kwuru okwu mere ka obi sie ndị Izrel ike nʼoge a ha guzoro nʼihu Mosis sị ha, “Ka anyị gaanụ otu ihu nweta ala ahụ. Nʼihi na anyị nwere ike imeri ha.”
31 But the men who had gone up with him said, We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we.
Ma ndị nledo ahụ soro ya gaa zara sị, “Anyị enweghị ike ibu agha megide ndị a; ha dị ike karịa anyị.”
32 And they gave the children of Israel a bad account of the land they had been to see, saying, This land through which we went is a land causing destruction to those living in it; and all the people we saw there are men of more than common size.
Ndị a gbasara akụkọ ọjọọ nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel banyere ala ahụ ha gara ledoo. Ha sịrị, “Ala ahụ anyị gara ledoo anya bụ ala na-eripịa ndị bi nʼime ya. Ndị niile anyị hụrụ nʼebe ahụ gbara nnọọ dimkpa
33 There we saw those great men, the sons of Anak, offspring of the Nephilim: and we seemed to ourselves no more than insects, and so we seemed to them.
Anyị hụrụ ndị Nefilim nʼebe ahụ (ndị bụ ụmụ ụmụ Anak, ndị sitere na ndị Nefilim). Nʼanya anyị, anyị dịka ụkpana nʼebe ha nọ, otu a ka anyị dịkwa nʼanya ha.”
