These are the names of the men who Moses sent to spy out the land. Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua.
17 Mosis zipụrụ ha ịga ledoo ala Kenan, ọ sịrị, “Gbagoonụ site nʼụzọ Negev gakwanụ nʼala ugwu ugwu.
Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, "Go up this way by the Negev, and go up into the hill country:
18 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.
and see the land, what it is; and the people who dwell in it, whether they are strong or weak, whether they are few or many;
19 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.
and what the land is that they dwell in, whether it is good or bad; and what cities they are that they dwell in, whether in camps, or in strongholds;
20 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.)
and what the land is, whether it is fat or lean, whether there is wood in it, or not. Be courageous, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the first-ripe grapes."
21 Ya mere ndị a gara ledoo ala ahụ anya site nʼọzara Zin ruo na Rehob, nke dị nso na Lebo Hamat.
So they went up, and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, to Lebo Hamath.
22 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.)
They went up by the Negev, and came to Hebron; and Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
23 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.
They came to the Valley of Eshcol, and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes on it, and they bore it on a staff between two. They also brought some of the pomegranates and figs.
24 A kpọrọ ebe ahụ Ndagwurugwu Eshkọl, nʼihi ụyọkọ mkpụrụ osisi vaịnị ndị Izrel gbutere nʼebe ahụ.
That place was called the Valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from there.
25 Mgbe iri abalị anọ gasịrị, ndị nledo a sitere nʼije ha lọghachi.
They returned from spying out the land at the end of forty days.
26 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.
They went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, to the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word to them, and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land.
27 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.
They told him, and said, "We came to the land where you sent us; and surely it flows with milk and honey; and this is its fruit.
28 Ma ndị bi nʼobodo ahụ siri ike. Obodo ha buru ibu bụrụkwa nke e wusiri ike. Anyị hụkwara ụmụ ụmụ Anak nʼebe ahụ.
However the people who dwell in the land are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large. Moreover, we saw the descendants of Anak there.
29 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.”
Amalek dwells in the land of the Negev: and the Hethites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the hill country; and the Canaanite dwells by the sea, and along by the side of the Jordan."
30 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.”
Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, "Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it."
31 Ma ndị nledo ahụ soro ya gaa zara sị, “Anyị enweghị ike ibu agha megide ndị a; ha dị ike karịa anyị.”
But the men who went up with him said, "We aren't able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we."
32 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
They brought up an evil report of the land which they had spied out to the children of Israel, saying, "The land, through which we have gone to spy it out, is a land that eats up its inhabitants; and all the people who we saw in it are men of great stature.
33 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.”
There we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak, who come of the Nephilim: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight."
