गन्ती 13
1 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “केही मानिसहरूलाई कनानको भूमिको जाँच गर्न पठा, जुन मैले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई दिएको छु । तिनीहरूका पुर्खाका हरेक कुलबाट एक-एक जना पठा । ती हरेक तिनीहरूका अगुवा हुनुपर्छ ।”
Send you men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give to the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall you send a man, every one a ruler among them.
3 मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई पारानको मरुभूमिबाट पठाए, ताकि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको आज्ञा पालन गरून् । तिनीहरू सबै इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका अगुवाहरू थिए ।
And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of the children of Israel.
4 तिनीहरूका नाउँ यिनै हुन्ः रूबेनको कुलबाट जक्कूरका छोरा शम्मूअ;

16 मोशाले भूमिको जाँच गर्न पठाएका मानिसहरूका नाउँ यिनै थिए । मोशाले नूनका छोरा होशियालाई यहोशू नाउँ राखे ।
These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua.
17 मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई कनानको भूमि जाँचबुझ गर्न पठाए । तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “नेगेवबाट प्रवेश गर र पहाडी मुलुकतिर जाओ ।
And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, Get you up this way southward, and go up into the mountain:
18 यो कस्तो छ भनी भूमिको जाँचबुझ गर ।
And see the land, what it is, and the people that dwells therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many;
19 त्यहाँ बस्ने मानिसहरूलाई हेर, तिनीहरू बलिया वा कमजोर छन् वा तिनीहरू धेरै छन् वा थोरै छन् ।
And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;
20 तिनीहरू बसोबास गरेका भूमि कस्तो छ, हेर । यो असल वा खराब छ? सहरहरू कस्ता छन्? तिनीहरू छाउनी वा किल्ला भएको सहरहरूमा छन्? भूमि कस्तो छ । अन्न उमार्न असल छ वा छैन, रुखहरू छन् वा छैनन् । साहसी होओ र त्यो भूमिको उत्पादनको नमुना लिएर आओ ।” त्यस बेला पहिलो दाख पाक्ने समय थियो ।
And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And be you of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the first ripe grapes.
21 यसैले ती मानिसहरू गए र जीनको मरुभूमिदेखि लेबो-हमात नजिकको रेहोबसम्मको भूमिको जाँचबुझ गरे ।
So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, as men come to Hamath.
22 तिनीहरू नेगेवबाट उक्लेर हेब्रोनमा आइपुगे । त्यहाँ अनाकका सन्तानहरू अहीमान, शेशै र तल्मै थिए । होब्रोन मिश्रको सोअनभन्दा सात वर्ष पहिले निर्माण गरिएको थियो ।
And they ascended by the south, and came to Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
23 जब तिनीहरू एश्कोलको बेँसीमा पुगे, तिनीहरूले दाखको झुप्पासहितको हाँगा काटे । तिनीहरूले यसलाई घोचामा राखेर दुई जनाले बोके । तिनीहरूले अनार र नेभारा पनि ल्याए ।
And they came to the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bore it between two on a staff; and they brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
24 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले त्यहाँ दाखको झुप्पा काटेकाले त्यस ठाउँलाई एश्कोलको बेँसी नाउँ राखियो ।
The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from there.
25 चालिस दिनपछि तिनीहरू भूमिको जाँचबुझ गरेर फर्के ।
And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.
26 तिनीहरू मोशा, हारून र इस्राएलका सारा समुदायकहाँ पारानको मरुभूमिमा भएको कादेशमा फर्केर आए । तिनीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई र सारा समुदायलाई खबर ल्याए र भूमिको उत्पादन तिनीहरूलाई देखाए ।
And 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 तिनीहरूले मोशालाई भने, “तपाईंले पठाउनुभएको मुलुकमा हामी पुग्यौँ । यसमा साँच्चै दुध र मह बग्दोरहेछ । यसका केही उत्पादनहरू यहाँ छन् ।
And 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 the fruit of it.
28 तथापि, त्यहाँ बसोबास गर्ने मानिसहरू बलिया छन् । सहरमा किल्ला हालिएका छन् र ती धेरै ठुला छन् । हामीले अनाकका सन्तानहरूलाई पनि देख्यौँ ।
Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled, and very great: and moreover we saw the children of Anak there.
29 नेगेवमा अमालेकीहरू बसोसबास गर्छन् । हित्ती, यबूसी, र एमोरी पहाडी मुलुकमा बस्छन् । कनानीहरू समुद्र किनारा र यर्दन नदीको तीरमा बस्छन् ।”
The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the coast of Jordan.
30 अनि यहोशूले मोशाको सामु मानिसहरूलाई चुपचाप बनाए र भने, “जाऔँ र भूमिलाई कब्जा गरौँ, किनभने हामीले यसलाई निश्चय पनि जित्नेछौँ ।
And 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 तर तिनीसँग गएका अरू मानिसहरूले भने, “हामीले तिनीहरूलाई आक्रमण गर्न सक्दैनौँ, किनभने तिनीहरू हामीभन्दा बलिया छन् ।”
But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.
32 यसैले तिनीहरूले जाँचबुझ गरेका मुलुकबारे इस्राएलका मानिसहरू माझ निरुत्साहित पार्ने खबर फिँजाए । तिनीहरूले भने, “हामीले हेरेका मुलकले त आफ्नै बासिन्दाहरूलाई निल्दोरहेछ ।
And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched to the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eats up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature.
33 हामीले त्यहाँ देखेका सबै मानिस अग्ला कदका छन् । हामीले त्यहाँ दैत्यहरू अर्थात् अनाकका सन्तानहरू देख्यौँ जो दैत्यहरूबाट आएका थिए । तिनीहरूसँग तुलना गर्दा हामी हाम्रो नजरमा फट्याङ्ग्राजस्ता थियौँ ।”
And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.
