गन्ती 13
1 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो,
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 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 मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई पारानको मरुभूमिबाट पठाए, ताकि तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको आज्ञा पालन गरून् । तिनीहरू सबै इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका अगुवाहरू थिए ।
Moses sent them from the wilderness of Paran according to the commandment of the LORD: all of them men who 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 who Moses sent to spy out the land. Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua.
17 मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई कनानको भूमि जाँचबुझ गर्न पठाए । तिनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “नेगेवबाट प्रवेश गर र पहाडी मुलुकतिर जाओ ।
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 यो कस्तो छ भनी भूमिको जाँचबुझ गर ।
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 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 is good or bad; and what cities they are that they dwell in, whether in camps, or in strongholds;
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 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 यसैले ती मानिसहरू गए र जीनको मरुभूमिदेखि लेबो-हमात नजिकको रेहोबसम्मको भूमिको जाँचबुझ गरे ।
So they went up, and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, to Lebo Hamath.
22 तिनीहरू नेगेवबाट उक्लेर हेब्रोनमा आइपुगे । त्यहाँ अनाकका सन्तानहरू अहीमान, शेशै र तल्मै थिए । होब्रोन मिश्रको सोअनभन्दा सात वर्ष पहिले निर्माण गरिएको थियो ।
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 जब तिनीहरू एश्कोलको बेँसीमा पुगे, तिनीहरूले दाखको झुप्पासहितको हाँगा काटे । तिनीहरूले यसलाई घोचामा राखेर दुई जनाले बोके । तिनीहरूले अनार र नेभारा पनि ल्याए ।
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 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले त्यहाँ दाखको झुप्पा काटेकाले त्यस ठाउँलाई एश्कोलको बेँसी नाउँ राखियो ।
That place was called the Valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from there.
25 चालिस दिनपछि तिनीहरू भूमिको जाँचबुझ गरेर फर्के ।
They returned from spying out the land at the end of 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 ।
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 ।
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 तथापि, त्यहाँ बसोबास गर्ने मानिसहरू बलिया छन् । सहरमा किल्ला हालिएका छन् र ती धेरै ठुला छन् । हामीले अनाकका सन्तानहरूलाई पनि देख्यौँ ।
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 नेगेवमा अमालेकीहरू बसोसबास गर्छन् । हित्ती, यबूसी, र एमोरी पहाडी मुलुकमा बस्छन् । कनानीहरू समुद्र किनारा र यर्दन नदीको तीरमा बस्छन् ।”
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 अनि यहोशूले मोशाको सामु मानिसहरूलाई चुपचाप बनाए र भने, “जाऔँ र भूमिलाई कब्जा गरौँ, किनभने हामीले यसलाई निश्चय पनि जित्नेछौँ ।
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 who went up with him said, "We aren't 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 ।
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 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 ।”
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."
