16 These [are] [the] names of the men whom he sent Moses to spy out the land and he called Moses Hoshea [the] son of Nun Joshua.
Ame siawoe Mose dɔ be woaɖatsa anyigba la me. Ɣeyiɣi sia mee (Mose trɔ Hosea ƒe ŋkɔ wòzu Yosua) si gɔmee nye “Yehowa nye Ɖeɖe.”
17 And he sent them Moses to spy out [the] land of Canaan and he said to them go up this in the Negev and you will go up the hill country.
Mose dɔ wo ɖa, eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miyi anyigba la ƒe anyigbeme lɔƒo, le Negeb ƒe tonyigba la dzi,
18 And you will see the land what? [is] it and the people which dwells on it ¿ strong [is] it ¿ feeble ¿ few [is] it or? many.
ne miakpɔ ale si anyigba la le. Mikpɔ ale si ame siwo le anyigba la dzi hã le, ne wonye ame sesẽwo alo ame benɔewo, ne wosɔ gbɔ alo womesɔ gbɔ o.
19 And what? [is] the land which it [is] dwelling in it ¿ good [is] it or? bad and what? [are] the cities which it [is] dwelling in them ¿ in camps or? in fortresses.
Milé ŋku ɖe nuwo ŋu, miakpɔ ne anyigba la nyo na agblemenukuwo loo alo menyo na wo o, ne woƒe duwo lolo loo alo wole sue, ne wotu mɔ sesẽwo ɖe wo ŋu,
20 And what? [is] the land ¿ fat [is] it or? lean ¿ [is] there in it wood or? not and you will show yourselves strong and you will take some of [the] fruit of the land and the days [were the] days of [the] first-fruits of grapes.
ne anyigba la nyo alo menyo o, eye ne atiwo sɔ gbɔ le edzi loo alo womesɔ gbɔ o. Migavɔ̃ o. Mitsɔ woƒe agblemenuku, siwo miakpɔ la ƒe ɖewo vɛ.” (Wonɔ waintsetse gbãtɔwo gbem ɣe ma ɣi.)
21 And they went up and they spied out the land from [the] wilderness of Zin to Rehob Lebo Hamath.
Ale wotsa ŋku le anyigba la dzi tso keke Zin gbegbe la va ɖo Rehob, le Hamat gbɔ.
22 And they went up in the Negev and he came to Hebron and [were] there Ahiman Sheshai and Talmai those born of Anak and Hebron seven years it was built before Zoan Egypt.
Wotso afi ma ɖo ta dzigbeme lɔƒo; woto Negeb gbã, eye woyi Hebron. Wokpɔ Ahimanitɔwo, Sesaitɔwo kple Talmaitɔwo. Ame siawo katã nye Anak, ame dzɔatsu ƒe dzidzimeviwo. (Hebron nye du xoxo aɖe. Wotsoe ƒe adre do ŋgɔ na Tanis tsotso le Egipte.)
23 And they came to [the] wadi of Eshcol and they cut down from there a branch and a cluster of grapes one and they carried it on the pole two and some of the pomegranates and some of the figs.
Tso afi ma la, wova afi si woyɔna egbegbe be, Eskɔl ƒe Balime. Wotso waintsetse kpo ɖeka le afi sia wòlolo ale gbegbe be ame evee tsɔ ati de eme hafi te ŋu tsɔe! Wotsɔ yevuboɖa kple gbotsetse siwo wokpɔ le afi ma hã ƒe ɖewo ɖe asi.
24 the Place that someone called [the] wadi of Eshcol on [the] causes of the cluster which they cut down from there [the] people of Israel.
Israelviwo na ŋkɔ Balime sia be, Eskɔl, si gɔmee nye “Kpo ɖeka” le waintsetse si wokpɔ le afi ma ƒe kpo ɖeka ƒe lolo ta!
25 And they returned from spying out the land from [the] end of forty day[s].
Le ŋkeke blaene megbe la, wotrɔ gbɔ.
26 And they went and they came to Moses and to Aaron and to all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel to [the] wilderness of Paran Kadesh towards and they brought back them word and all the congregation and they showed them [the] fruit of the land.
Wogblɔ nu si wokpɔ la na Mose, Aron kple Israelviwo katã le Paran gbedzi le Kades, eye wotsɔ kutsetse siwo wotsɔ vɛ la fia wo.
27 And they recounted to him and they said we went into the land which you sent us and also [is] flowing of milk and honey it and this [is] fruit its.
Wona nutsotso Mose ale, “Míede anyigba si dzi mieɖo mí ɖo be míatsa ŋku le la dzi. Enye anyigba nyui aɖe ŋutɔ, anyigba si dzi notsi kple anyitsi le tsatsam le. Míetsɔ kutsetse siawo vɛ be woaɖe nya si gblɔm míele la ƒe nyateƒenyenye afia.
28 Nevertheless for [is] strong the people which dwells in the land and the cities [are] fortified large very and also those born of Anak we saw there.
Ke afi ma tɔwo nye ŋusẽtɔwo. Woƒe duwo lolo, eye woglã wo katã. Gawu la, míekpɔ Anak ƒe dzidzimeviwo gɔ̃ hã le afi ma!
29 Amalek [is] dwelling in [the] land of the Negev and the Hittite[s] and the Jebusite[s] and the Amorite[s] [is] dwelling in the hill country and the Canaanite[s] [is] dwelling at the sea and on [the] side of the Jordan.
Amalekitɔwo le gbegbe le dziehe gome, ke Hititɔwo, Yebusitɔwo kple Amoritɔwo ya le togbɛwo dzi, eye Kanaantɔwo le atsiaƒu kple Yɔdan to.”
30 And he silenced Caleb the people to Moses and he said certainly we will go up and we will take possession of it for certainly we will prevail to it.
Tete Kaleb tsi nya ɖe ameawo nu le Mose ŋkume, eye wògblɔ be, “Mina míayi aɖaxɔ anyigba la, elabena míate ŋui xoxoxo.”
31 And the men who they had gone up with him they said not we are able to go up against the people for [is] strong it more than us.
Ŋkutsala bubuawo gblɔ be, “Miate ŋu aɖadze wo dzi o, elabena wosesẽ wu mi.”
32 And they brought out bad report of the land which they had spied out it to [the] people of Israel saying the land which we passed in it to spy out it [is] a land [which] devours inhabitants its it and all the people which we saw in [the] midst of it [were] men of stature.
Ale wokaka nutsotso gbegblẽ ɖe Israelviwo dome tso anyigba si dzi wotsa ŋku le la ŋuti. Wogblɔ na ameawo be, “Anyigba si dzi míetsa ŋku le la le edzinɔlawo mim. Ame siwo katã míekpɔ la nye ame dzɔatsuwo.
33 And there we saw the Nephilim [the] descendants of Anak [were] from the Nephilim and we were in own eyes our like grasshoppers and thus we were in view their.
Míekpɔ Nefilimtɔwo hã le afi ma (Anak nye Nefilimtɔwo ƒe dzidzimeviwo). Míedze le woƒe ŋkume abe abɔwo ene, eye nenema kee woawo hã kpɔ míe.”
