Numbers 13
1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ,
2 Sende thou men out to search the lande of Canaan which I giue vnto the children of Israel: of euery tribe of their fathers shall ye sende a man, such as are all rulers among them.
“Tũma arũme amwe mathiĩ magathigaane bũrũri wa Kaanani, ũrĩa ngũhe andũ a Isiraeli. Tũma mũtongoria ũmwe wao, kuuma o mũhĩrĩga o mũhĩrĩga wa maithe mao.”
3 Then Moses sent them out of the wildernesse of Paran at the commandement of the Lord: all those men were heades of the children of Israel.
Nake Musa agĩathĩkĩra watho wa Jehova, na agĩtũma andũ acio kuuma Werũ wa Parani. Andũ acio othe maarĩ atongoria a andũ a Isiraeli.
4 Also their names are these: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the sonne of Zaccur:
Maya nĩmo marĩĩtwa ma atongoria acio: kuuma mũhĩrĩga wa Rubeni, aarĩ Shamua mũrũ wa Zakuri;
5 Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the sonne of Hori:
kuuma mũhĩrĩga wa Simeoni, aarĩ Shafati mũrũ wa Hori;

15 Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the sonne of Machi.
kuuma mũhĩrĩga wa Gadi, aarĩ Geueli mũrũ wa Maki.
16 These are the names of the men, which Moses sent to spie out the lande: and Moses called ye name of Oshea the sonne of Nun, Iehoshua.
Macio nĩmo marĩĩtwa ma andũ arĩa Musa aatũmire magathigaane bũrũri ũcio. Nake Musa akĩgarũra rĩĩtwa rĩa Hoshea mũrũ wa Nuni akĩmũtua Joshua.
17 So Moses sent them to spie out the lande of Canaan, and said vnto them, Go vp this way toward the South, and go vp into the moutaines,
Rĩrĩa Musa aatũmire andũ acio magathigaane bũrũri wa Kaanani, aameerire atĩrĩ, “Ambatai mũtuĩkanĩrie Negevu, mũthiĩ bũrũri ũcio ũrĩ irĩma.
18 And consider the land what it is, and the people that dwel therein, whether they be strong or weake, either fewe or many,
Tuĩriai bũrũri ũcio ũrĩa ũtariĩ, muone kana andũ akuo marĩ na hinya kana matirĩ hinya, o na kana nĩ aingĩ kana nĩ anini.
19 Also what the lande is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad: and what cities they be, that they dwell in, whether they dwell in tents, or in walled townes:
Ningĩ mũmenye bũrũri ũcio matũũraga ũhaana atĩa? Nĩ mwega kana nĩ mũũru? Matũũraga matũũra ma mũthemba ũrĩkũ? Nĩ mairigĩre na thingo cia hinya kana ti mairigĩre?
20 And what the land is: whether it be fat or leane, whether there be trees therein, or not. And be of good courage, and bring of the fruite of the lande (for then was the time of the first ripe grapes)
Tĩĩri wakuo ũtariĩ atĩa? Nĩ mũnoru kana nĩ mũhĩnju? Kũrĩ mĩtĩ kana gũtirĩ? Geriai mũno mũrehe maciaro mamwe ma bũrũri ũcio.” (Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo mĩthabibũ yaambagĩrĩria kwĩrua.)
21 So they went vp, and searched out the lande, from the wildernesse of Zin vnto Rehob, to go to Hamath,
Tondũ ũcio makĩambata magĩthigaana bũrũri ũcio kuuma Werũ wa Zini nginya Rehobu, merekeire Lebo-Hamathu.
22 And they ascended toward the South, and came vnto Hebron, where were Ahiman, Sheshai and Talmai, the sonnes of Anak. And Hebron was built seuen yeere before Zoan in Egypt.
Mambatire matuĩkanĩirie Negevu na magĩkinya Hebironi kũrĩa Ahimani, na Sheshai, na Talimai, njiaro cia Anaki, maatũũraga. (Itũũra rĩa Hebironi rĩakĩtwo mĩaka mũgwanja mbere ya itũũra rĩa Zoani gwakwo bũrũri-inĩ wa Misiri.)
23 Then they came to the riuer of Eshcol, and cut downe thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it vpon a barre betweene two, and brought of the pomegranates and of the figges.
Rĩrĩa maakinyire Kĩanda gĩa Eshikoli, magĩtema rũhonge rwarĩ na kĩmanjĩka kĩmwe gĩa thabibũ. Andũ eerĩ ao makĩrũkuuanĩra na mũtĩ, hamwe na makomamanga mamwe, na ngũyũ.
24 That place was called the riuer Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes, which the children of Israel cut downe thence.
Naho handũ hau hagĩĩtwo Kĩanda gĩa Eshikoli nĩ ũndũ wa kĩmanjĩka kĩu gĩa thabibũ kĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli acio maatemire ho.
25 Then after fourtie dayes, they turned againe from searching of the land.
Matukũ mĩrongo ĩna mathira magĩcooka kuuma gũthigaana bũrũri ũcio.
26 And they went and came to Moses and to Aaron and vnto al the Congregation of the children of Israel, in the wildernesse of Paran, to Kadesh, and brought to the, and to all the Congregation tydings, and shewed them the fruite of the lande.
Nao magĩcooka kũrĩ Musa, na Harũni na kĩrĩndĩ gĩothe kĩa andũ a Isiraeli kũu Kadeshi o kũu Werũ-inĩ wa Parani. Kũu makĩhe Musa na Harũni, na kĩũngano gĩothe ũhoro ũcio na makĩmoonia maciaro ma bũrũri ũcio.
27 And they tolde him, and saide, We came vnto the land whither thou hast sent vs, and surely it floweth with milke and honie: and here is of the fruite of it.
Makĩhe Musa ũhoro ũyũ: “Nĩtwatoonyire bũrũri ũrĩa watũtũmire, naguo nĩ bũrũri ũrĩ bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ! Maya nĩmo maciaro maguo.
28 Neuerthelesse the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled and exceeding great: and moreouer, we sawe the sonnes of Anak there.
No rĩrĩ, andũ arĩa matũũraga kũu marĩ hinya, na matũũra mao nĩmairigĩre na thingo cia hinya, na nĩ manene mũno. O na ningĩ nĩtuonire njiaro cia Anaki kuo.
29 The Amalekites dwell in the South countrey, and the Hittites, and the Iebusites, and the Amorites dwell in the mountaines, and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the coast of Iorden.
Aamaleki matũũraga kũu Negevu; Ahiti, na Ajebusi, na Aamori matũũraga bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma; Akaanani nao matũũraga ndwere-inĩ cia iria na hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani.”
30 Then Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and saide, Let vs go vp at once, and possesse it: for vndoubtedly we shall ouercome it.
Nake Kalebu agĩkiria andũ acio o hau mbere ya Musa, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtwagĩrĩirwo nĩ kwambata tũthiĩ twĩnyiitĩre bũrũri ũcio, nĩ ũndũ no tũhote gwĩka ũguo.”
31 But the men, that went vp with him, saide, we be not able to goe vp against the people: for they are stronger then we.
No andũ arĩa maambatĩte nake makiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũtingĩtharĩkĩra andũ acio, marĩ na hinya gũtũkĩra.”
32 So they brought vp an euill report of the land which they had searched for the children of Israel, saying, The lande which we haue gone through to search it out, is a land that eateth vp the inhabitants thereof: for all the people that we sawe in it, are men of great stature.
Nao makĩhunjia ũhoro mũũru kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli ũkoniĩ bũrũri ũcio maathigaanĩte. Makiuga atĩrĩ, “Bũrũri ũcio tũrathigaanire nĩ bũrũri ũgũtambuura andũ arĩa matũũraga kuo ũkamaniina biũ. Andũ arĩa othe tuonire kuo nĩ anene mũno.
33 For there we sawe gyants, the sonnes of Anak, which come of the gyants, so that we seemed in our sight like grashoppers: and so wee were in their sight.
Nĩtuonire Anefili kuo (njiaro cia Anaki, a kĩruka kĩa Anefili). Tweyonaga tũhaana ta ndaahi, o nao moonaga tũhaana o ta cio.”
