< Numbers 13 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
2 Send for you men, and let them spy the land of the Chananites, which I give to the sons of Israel for a possession; one man for a tribe, you shall send them away according to their families, every one of them a prince.
“Or jomoko odhi onon piny Kanaan, ma onego ami jo-Israel. Koa e dhoot ka dhoot manie oganda inior achiel kuom jotendgi.”
3 And Moses sent them out of the wilderness of Pharan by the word of the Lord; all these [were] the princes of the sons of Israel.
Kaluwore gi dwond Jehova Nyasaye, Musa noorogi ka gia e Thim mar Paran. Jogi duto ne gin jotend jo-Israel.
4 And these [are] their names: of the tribe of Ruben, Samuel the son of Zachur.

16 These [are] the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land; and Moses called Ause the son of Naue, Joshua.
Magi e nying chwo mane Musa ooro mondo onon piny Kanaan. (Musa nomiyo Hoshea wuod Nun nying ni Joshua.)
17 And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Chanaan, and said to them, Go up by this wilderness; and you shall go up to the mountain,
Kane Musa oorogi mondo gidhi ginon piny Kanaan, nowachonegi niya, “Luwuru Negev kendo udhi nyaka piny manie got.
18 and you shall see the land, what it is, and the people that dwells on it, whether it is strong or weak, or [whether] they are few or many.
Nonuru ane pinyno kaka chalo, mondo ungʼego ni joma odak kanyo gin thuondi koso ngoche, gingʼeny koso ginok?
19 And what the land is on which they dwell, [whether] it is good or bad; and what the cities are wherein these dwell, whether they dwell in walled [cities] or unwalled.
Nonuru ane kaka piny ma gidakieno chalo, ka ober kata orach? Nonuru ane mier ma gidakie nichalo nade, ochielgi koso ok ochielgi?
20 And what the land is, whether rich or poor; whether there are trees in it or no: and you shall persevere and take of the fruits of the land: and the days [were] the days of spring, the forerunners of the grape.
Lopno, to chalo nade? En lowo mamiyo koso motwo? Bende en gi yiende koso oongego? Temuru beru mondo ukel olembe moko mag pinyno.” (Ndalono ne en kinde keyo mokwongo mar mzabibu.)
21 And they went up and surveyed the land from the wilderness of Sin to Rhoob, as men go in to Aemath.
Omiyo ne giwuok kendo neginono pinyno kochakore Thim mar Zin nyaka Rehob, kagichomo Lebo Hamath.
22 And they went up by the wilderness, and departed as far as Chebron; and there [was] Achiman, and Sessi, and Thelami, the progeny of Enach. Now Chebron was built seven years before Tanin of Egypt.
Ne giwuotho mi gikadho piny Negev nyaka gichopo Hebron, kama Ahiman, Sheshai kod Talmai, ma nyikwa Anak nodakie. (Hebron noger higni abiriyo motelone Zoan manie piny Misri.)
23 And they came to the valley of the cluster and surveyed it; and they cut down thence a bough and one cluster of grapes upon it, and bore it on staves, and [they took] of the pomegranates and the figs.
Kane gichopo e Holo mar Eshkol, ne gitongʼo bad yath achiel motingʼo pumbi mar olemb mzabibu. Ji ariyo kuomgi notingʼe e luth kaachiel gi gik mongʼinore kod ngʼowu.
24 And they called that place, The valley of the cluster, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from thence.
Kanyo niluongo ni Holo mar Eshkol nikech negingʼado bad olemb mzabibu mochiek.
25 And they returned from thence, having surveyed the land, after forty days.
Bangʼ ndalo piero angʼwen negidwogo ka gia nono pinyno.
26 And they proceeded and came to Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel, to the wilderness of Pharan Cades; and they brought word to them and to all the congregation, and they showed the fruit of the land:
Negidwogo ir Musa gi Harun kod oganda jo-Israel duto e dala Kadesh manie Thim Paran. Kanyo ema ne gimiyogi dwoko kaachiel gi chokruok duto kendo neginyisogi olemo machiek e pinyno.
27 and they reported to him, and said, We came into the land into which you sent us, a land flowing with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.
Negimiyo Musa nonro machalo kama: “Ne wadhi e piny mane iorowae, kendo en piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich! Olemo moa kuno eri.
28 Only the nation that dwells upon it is bold, and they have very great and strong walled towns, and we saw there the children of Enach.
Joma odak kuno nigi teko mangʼeny, kendo gidakie mier madongo mochiel motegno kendo malich. Bende ne waneno nyikwa Anak kuno.
29 And Amalec dwells in the land towards the south: and the Chettite and the Evite, and the Jebusite, and the Amorite dwells in the hill country: and the Chananite dwells by the sea, and by the river Jordan.
Jo-Amalek odak Negev; jo-Hiti, jo-Jebus kod jo-Amor odak e piny manie got; to jo-Kanaan odak machiegni gi dho nam e alwora mar Jordan.”
30 And Chaleb stayed the people from speaking before Moses, and said to him, Nay, but we will go up by all means, and will inherit it, for we shall surely prevail against them.
Eka Kaleb nokwero ji mondo olingʼ e nyim Musa kendo nowacho niya, “Wadhiuru kendo wakaw pinyno, nimar wanyalo kawe.”
31 But the men that went up together with him said, We will not go up, for we shall not by any means be able to go up against the nation, for it is much stronger than we.
To joma nodhi kode kuno nowacho niya, “Ok wanyal monjo jogo; gitek moloyowa.”
32 And they brought a horror of that land which they surveyed upon the children of Israel, saying, The land which we passed by to survey it, is a land that eats up its inhabitants; and all the people whom we saw in it are men of extraordinary stature.
Omiyo ne gilandone jo-Israel dwoko marachni kuom piny mane gidhi nono. Negiwacho niya, “Piny mane wadhi nono nego joma odak eigi. Ji mane waneno kuno gin joma robede.
33 And there we saw the giants; and we were before them as locusts, yes even so were we before them.
Ne waneno Nefilim kuno (nyikwa Anak aa kuom jo-Nefilim). Ne wanenore mana ka ongogo, to bende mano e kaka ne wachalo e nyimgi.”
