Nomery 13
1 Hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè,
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Añiraho ondaty hitingañe an-tane Kanàne añe, ie hatoloko amo ana’ Israeleo, songa amantoho ondaty raike o fifokoan-droae’eo, fonga mpamelek’ am’ iereo.
“Send men, that they may spy out the land of Canaan, which I give to the children of Israel. Of every tribe of their fathers, you shall send a man, every one a prince among them.”
3 Aa le nampionjone’ i Mosè boak’ am-patrambei’ i Parane ao iereo ami’ ty nandilia’ Iehovà, songa mpiaolo’ o ana’ Israeleo indaty rey.
Moses sent them from the wilderness of Paran according to the commandment of Yahweh. All of them were men who were heads of the children of Israel.

16 Ie ro tahina’ ondaty nafanto’ i Mosè hitingañe i taneio, le novae’ i Mosè ty tahina’ i Hoseà ho Iehosòa.
These are the names of the men who Moses sent to spy out the land. Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua.
17 Aa le nirahe’ i Mosè iereo hitingañe an-tane Kanàne añe naho nafanto’e ty hoe: Mionjona mb’ amo Negeveo mb’eo vaho mañambonea mb’ am-bohibohitse añe,
Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, “Go up this way by the South, and go up into the hill country.
18 le isaho te inoñe i taney naho ondaty mimoneñe aoo ke maozatse ke maifoifo, he tsy ampeampe he maro;
See the land, what it is; and the people who dwell therein, whether they are strong or weak, whether they are few or many;
19 le i tane imoneña’ iareoy, ke soa he raty; naho o rova itoboha’ iareoo ke t’ie tobe he arikoboñen-kijoly;
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 le i taney ke kobokara he tsy mamokatse; ke mitiry hatae he tsie. Aa le mahasibeha vaho añandeso ty voka’ i taney. Toe san-doha-voam-balòboke henane zay.
and what the land is, whether it is fertile or poor, whether there is wood therein, or not. Be courageous, and bring some of the fruit of the land.” Now the time was the time of the first-ripe grapes.
21 Aa le nienga iereo nijoko boak’ am-patrambei’ i Tsine mb’e Rekhobe am-pimoaha’ i Hamate mb’eo.
So they went up, and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, to the entrance of Hamath.
22 Le nionjoñe mañatimo naho nigodam-b’e Kebrone naho Akimane naho e Sesaý vaho e Talmaý, mb’amo ana’ i Anàkeo mb’eo. (Naoreñe fito taoñe taolo’ i Tsoane e Mitsraime añe ty Kebrone.)
They went up by the South, and came to Hebron; and Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
23 Le nivotrak’ am-bavatane’ Eskole eo iereo vaho nibira tsampam-baloboke rekets’ angaroza’e raike nampitarazoeñe ondaty roe am-baoñe, naho nangalak’ ampongabeindañitse vaho aviavy.
They came to the valley of Eshcol, and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bore it on a staff between two. They also brought some of the pomegranates and figs.
24 Natao Vavatane’ i Eskole i taney amy angaroza nihitsife’ o ana’ Israeleoy.
That place was called the valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from there.
25 Ie efa-polo andro añe le nimpoly i nitampoñe i taney rey,
They returned from spying out the land at the end of forty days.
26 le niheo mb’amy Mosè naho i Aharone vaho i valobohò’ Israeley am-patram-bei’ i Parane e Kadese mb’eo ninday saontsy ama’e naho amy valobohò’ Israele iabiy, vaho naboa’ iereo ty voka’ i taney.
They went and came to Moses, 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. They showed them the fruit of the land.
27 Le hoe ty natalili’ iareo ama’e, Nigodañe’ay i tane’ nañiraha’o anaiy. Toe iorikorihan-dronono naho tantele, hehe ty voka’e.
They told him, and said, “We came to the land where you sent us. Surely it flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit.
28 Fe misañatse ondaty mimoneñe amo taneo; le faheran-kijoly fatratse o rova’eo vaho jabajaba; mbore nioni’ay ao o ana’ i Anàkeo.
However, the people who dwell in the land are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large. Moreover, we saw the children of Anak there.
29 Mimoneñe an-tane atimo ao o nte-Amalekeo; le mimoneñe am-bohibohitse ao o nte-Kheteo naho o nte-Iebosèo vaho o nte-Amareo; le mimoneñe añ’ olo’ i riakey naho añ’ olo’ i saka Iardeney o nte-Kanàneo.
Amalek dwells in the land of the South. The Hittite, the Jebusite, and the Amorite dwell in the hill country. The Canaanite dwells by the sea, and along the side of the Jordan.”
30 Nampianjiñe’ i Kalebe añatrefa’ i Mosè ondatio, nanao ty hoe: Antao hionjoñe mb’eo amy zao hitavañe i taney, tsy kalafo te mahagiok’ aze tika.
Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, “Let’s go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it!”
31 Fe nanao ty hoe ondaty niharo-lia ama’eo: Tsy lefen-tika ty hionjoñe haname ondatio amy t’ie maozatse te aman-tika.
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 Le naboele’ iereo ty talily nahatsonevotse o ana’ Israeleo amy tane nitingane’ iereoy, ami’ty hoe: I tane niranga’ay mpitingañey, le tane mampibotseke o mpimone’eo, vaho mijoalajoala ze hene ondaty niisa’ay ama’e.
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 Nioni’ay ondaty joakeo (toe tarira’ ondaty joake o nte-Anàkeo); le nihoe valala am-pañentea’ay zahay vaho zahay am-pahaisaha’ iareo.
There we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak, who come from the Nephilim. We were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.”
