Numbers 13
1 Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Hina Gode da Mousesema amane sia: i,
2 “Send some men to Canaan [land] to explore it. That is the land that I will give to you Israelis. Send men who are leaders in their tribes.”
“Isala: ili fi fagoyale gala afae afae amoga ouligisu dunu afae ilegema. Amalalu, amo dunu fagoyale ilia da Ga: ina: ne soge (amo Na da Isala: ili dunuma imunu gala) amo ea hou hogoma: ne, desega masa: ne asunasima.”
3 So Moses/I did what Yahweh commanded him/me. He/I sent out twelve Israeli men who were all leaders of their tribes. He/I sent them from their/our camp at Paran in the desert.
Mousese da Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i nabi dagoi. Ilia da Ba: ila: ne wadela: i sogega esalu amola amogawi e da amo ouligisu dunu asunasi. Fi Ouligisu Dunu (Desega Masa: ne Asunasi) Liubene Sia: miua (Sa: ge ea mano) Simione Sia: ifa: de (Houlai ea mano) Yuda Ga: ilebe (Yifane ea mano) Isaga Aiga: le (Yousefe ea mano) Ifala: ime Housia (Nane ea mano) Bediamini Ba: ladai (La: ifiu ea mano) Sebiulane Ga: diele (Soudai ea mano) Ma: na: se Ga: dai (Susai ea mano) Da: ne A: miele (Gima: li ea mano) A: sie Sidie (Maigele ea mano) Na: fadalai Nabi (Fofosai ea mano) Ga: de Giuele (Ma: igai ea mano)
4 These are the names of the men [and the tribes they belonged to: ] Shammua, the son of Zaccur, from the tribe of Reuben;
5 Shaphat, the son of Hori, from the tribe of Simeon;
6 Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, from the tribe of Judah;
7 Igal, the son of Joseph, from the tribe of Issachar;
8 Hoshea, the son of Nun, from the tribe of Ephraim;
9 Palti, the son of Raphu, from the tribe of Benjamin;
10 Gaddiel, the son of Sodi, from the tribe of Zebulun;
11 Gaddi, the son of Susi, from the tribe of Manasseh;
12 Ammiel, the son of Gemalli, from the tribe of Dan;
13 Sethur, the son of Michael, from the tribe of Asher;
14 Nahbi, the son of Vophsi, from the tribe of Naphtali;
15 and Geuel, the son of Maki, from the tribe of Gad.
16 Those are the names of the men whom Moses/I sent out to explore Canaan. [Before they left], Moses/I gave Hoshea a new name, Joshua, [which means ‘Yahweh is the one who saves].’
Amo dunu dedei da desega ahoasu dunu amo Mousese da Ga: ina: ne soge ba: la masa: ne asunasi. Mousese da Housia (Nane ea mano) ea dio afadenene, Yosiua dio asuli.
17 Before Moses/I sent them to explore Canaan, he/I said to them, “Go through the southern part of Canaan, and then go [north] into the hilly area.
Mousese da desega ahoasu dunu asunasilaloba, e da ilima amane sia: i, “Guiguda: nini asili, ga (north) amoga masa. Asili, Ga: ina: ne ga (south) sogega doaga: le, amalu agolo sogega ba: la masa.
18 See what the land is like. See if the people who live there are strong or weak. See if there are many people or only a few people.
Soge ea hou ba: ma. Dunu amo ganodini esalebe ilia idi hogoma. Amola ilia da gasa bagade o gasa hame amo hou hogole ba: ma.
19 Find out what kind of land they live in [RHQ]. Is it good or bad? Find out about the towns in which they live [RHQ]. Do they have walls around them or not?
Osobo da ha: i manu heda: mu noga: i o wadela: i hogole ba: ma. Amola dunu da udigili moilai ganodini esala o gasawane gagili sali esala, amo hogoma.
20 Find out about the soil [RHQ]. Is it (fertile/good for growing crops) or not? Find out if there are trees there [RHQ]. Try to bring back some of the fruit that grows in that land.” [He/I said that because] it was the beginning of the time to harvest grapes.
Osobo da nasegagila: ? Soge amoga da ifa ganabela: ? Amo huluane hogole ba: ma. Amola fage amo sogega galebe, amo bu gaguli misa. (amo oubi ganodini, waini fage da muni yoi agoane hamosu.)
21 So those men went to Canaan. They went [through the entire land], from the Zin desert [in the south] all the way to Rehob [town] near Lebo-Hamath [in the north].
Amaiba: le, ilegei dunu ilia da ga (north) amoga asili, soge amo da ga (south) diala soge amo wadela: i soge Sini amoga muni asili, Lihoube moilai (Ha: ima: de adobo gigadofa ahoasu gadenene) amoga doaga: i.
22 In the south, they went to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, [huge men] descended from Anak, lived. Hebron was a city that was built seven years before Zoan [city] was built in Egypt.
Ilia da hidadea soge ea ga (south) la: idi asili, Hibalone moilai bai bagade amoga doaga: i. Amogawi, dunu bagadedafa fi dunu ilia dio amo da A: ina: ge, amo iligaga fi (Ahaima: ne, Siesai amola Da: lamai) esalebe ba: i. (Ilia da hemonega Hibalone moilai bai bagade hiouginanawane ode fesuale agoane gidigili, Soua: ne moilai bai bagade Idibidi soge ganodini gagui).
23 In one valley, they cut from a grapevine one cluster of grapes. [Because it was very large, they needed] two men to carry it on a pole. They also picked some pomegranates and some figs [to carry back to their camp].
Desega ahoasu dunu da Esiegole Fago amoga doaga: le, ilia da waini efe amoda damuni fasili gaguli asi. Amo amodaga legei da waini fage gagabu bagade galu. Amo da dioi bagadeba: le, dunu aduna da amo ifaga la: gili, gisawene ahoasu. Ilia eno ifa fage amo ‘bomegala: nade’ amola ‘figi’ gaguli misi.
24 They called that place Eshcol [which means ‘cluster’] because they had cut that [huge] cluster of grapes there.
(Amo soge ea dio da Esiegole Fago - dawa: loma: ne da ‘waini fage gagabu’ - Bai amogawi Isala: ili dunu da waini fage damuni fasi).
25 After they explored the land for 40 days, they returned to their camp.
Desega ahoasu dunu da eso 40amoga soge hogolalu, bu Mousese, Elane amola Isala: ili dunu Ga: idesie soge, wadela: i hafoga: i soge Ba: ila: ne amo ganodini esala, amoga buhagi. Ilia ba: i liligi huluane olelei amola waini fage gagabu ilia gaguli misi, amo olei.
26 They came to Aaron and Moses/me and the rest of the Israeli people in the desert at Paran. They reported to everyone what they had seen. They also showed them the fruit that they had brought back.
27 But this is what they reported to Moses/me: “We arrived in the land that you sent us to explore. It is truly a beautiful land, and it is very fertile [IDM]. Here is some of the fruit.
Ilia da Mousesema amane sia: i, “Ninia da soge huluane noga: le ba: i. Osobo da noga: i amola nasegagi. Amo soge ea ha: i manu fage afae da goea.
28 But the people who live there are very strong. Their cities are large and are surrounded by walls. We even saw some of the [huge] descendants of Anak there.
Be dunu fi amogawi esalebe da gasa bagade ba: i. Amola ilia moilai da gasa bagade gagui amola gagili sali agoane hamoi dagoi. Amola ninia da bagadedafa dunu fi, amo A: ina: ge egaga fi, amogawi esalebe ba: beba: le bagade hihini ba: i.
29 The descendants of Amalek live in the southern part [of the land], and the descendants of Heth, Jebus, and Amor live in the hilly area [to the north]. The descendants of Canaan live along the coast of the [Mediterranean] sea and along the Jordan [River].”
A: malege fi da amo soge ea ga (south) la: idi esala. Amola agolo soge ganodini, Hidaide dunu fi, Yebiusaide amola A: moulaide dunu esalebe ba: sa. Amola Medidela: inia Hano Wayabo Bagade bega: amola Yodane Hano bega: , amogawi Ga: ina: ne dunu da fi esala.
30 [When they said that, the people were afraid and started to cry out very loudly]. But Caleb told the people who were standing near Moses/me to be quiet. Then he said, “We should go there and take the land, because we are certainly able to conquer it!”
Isala: ili dunu da Mousesema egane sia: beba: le, Ga: ilebe da ilima ouiya: ma: ne sia: i. E amane sia: i, “Ninia wahadafa ilima doagala: mu da defea. Ninia gasa da amo soge hasalimu defele gala.”
31 But the men who had gone with him said, “No, we cannot attack [and defeat] those people! They are much stronger than we are!”
Be desega ahoasu dunu amo da Ga: ilebe ili gilisili asi, ilia amane sia: i, “Hame mabu! Ninia da gasa hame. Amo dunu doagala: mu da hamedei. Amo dunu ilia gasa da ninia gasa baligi dagoi.”
32 So those men gave to the Israeli people a bad report about the land that they had explored. They said, “The land that we explored is very large; we cannot conquer it. And all the people whom we saw are very tall.
Amaiba: le ilia da eno Isala: ili dunuma ilia soge ba: i amoga ogogole ba: i sia: ne olelei. Ilia amane sia: i, “Amo soge da ha: i bagade. Ha: i manu heda: i da esalebe dunu amo sadimu hamedei. Dunu huluane ninia ba: i da sedadedafa.
33 We even saw the descendants of Nephili there. The descendants of Anak [whom we saw there] are descended from the giant Nephili people. When we saw them, we felt [as small] as grasshoppers [SIM], and they thought that we looked like grasshoppers too!”
Ninia da A: ina: ge egaga fi dunu bagadedafa ba: i. Ninia da ilia da: i ba: beba: le, ninia da: i da danuba: agoane defele dawa: i. Amola ilia da nini ba: beba: le, danuba: defele agoane dawa: i.
