Brojevi 13
1 I Gospod reèe Mojsiju govoreæi:
Yahweh said to Moses/me,
2 Pošlji ljude da uhode zemlju Hanansku, koju æu dati sinovima Izrailjevijem; po jednoga èovjeka od svakoga plemena otaca njihovijeh pošljite, sve glavare izmeðu njih.
“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.”
3 I posla ih Mojsije iz pustinje Faranske po zapovijesti Gospodnjoj; i svi ljudi bjehu glavari sinova Izrailjevijeh.
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.

16 To su imena ljudima koje posla Mojsije da uhode zemlju. I nazva Mojsije Avsija sina Navina Isus.
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].’
17 I šaljuæi ih Mojsije da uhode zemlju Hanansku reèe im: idite ovuda na jug, pa izidite na goru;
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.
18 I vidite zemlju kakva je i kakav narod živi u njoj, je li jak ili slab, je li mali ili velik;
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.
19 I kakva je zemlja u kojoj živi, je li dobra ili rðava; i kakva su mjesta u kojima živi, eda li pod šatorima ili u tvrdim gradovima;
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?
20 I kakva je sama zemlja, je li rodna ili nerodna, ima li u njoj drveta ili nema; budite slobodni, i uzmite roda one zemlje. A tada bješe vrijeme prvom grožðu.
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.
21 I otišavši uhodiše zemlju od pustinje Sinske do Reova kako se ide u Emat.
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].
22 I idoše na jug, i doðoše do Hevrona, gdje bijahu Ahiman i Sesije i Teliman, sinovi Enakovi. A Hevron bješe sazidan na sedam godina prije Soana Misirskoga.
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.
23 Potom doðoše do potoka Eshola, i ondje otsjekoše lozu s grozdom jednijem, i ponesoše ga dvojica na moci; tako i šipaka i smokava.
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].
24 I prozva se ono mjesto potok Eshol od grozda, koji ondje otsjekoše sinovi Izrailjevi.
They called that place Eshcol [which means ‘cluster’] because they had cut that [huge] cluster of grapes there.
25 I poslije èetrdeset dana vratiše se iz zemlje koju uhodiše.
After they explored the land for 40 days, they returned to their camp.
26 I vrativši se doðoše k Mojsiju i Aronu i ka svemu zboru sinova Izrailjevijeh u pustinju Faransku, u Kadis; i pripovjediše njima i svemu zboru stvar, i pokazaše im rod one zemlje.
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 I pripovijedajuæi im rekoše: idosmo u zemlju u koju si nas poslao; doista teèe u njoj mlijeko i med, i evo roda njezina.
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.
28 Ali je jak narod koji živi u onoj zemlji, i gradovi su im tvrdi i vrlo veliki; a vidjesmo ondje i sinove Enakove.
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.
29 Amalik živi na južnoj strani; a Heteji i Jevuseji i Amoreji žive u planini, a Hananeji žive na moru i na Jordanu.
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].”
30 A Halev utišavaše narod pred Mojsijem; i govoraše: hajde da idemo da je uzmemo, jer je možemo pokoriti.
[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!”
31 Ali drugi ljudi koji idoše s njim govorahu: ne možemo iæi na onaj narod, jer je jaèi od nas.
But the men who had gone with him said, “No, we cannot attack [and defeat] those people! They are much stronger than we are!”
32 I prosuše zao glas o zemlji koju uhodiše meðu sinovima Izrailjevijem govoreæi: zemlja koju proðosmo i uhodismo zemlja je koja proždire svoje stanovnike, i sav narod koji vidjesmo u njoj jesu ljudi vrlo veliki.
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.
33 Vidjesmo ondje i divove, sinove Enakove, roda divovskoga, i èinjaše nam se da smo prema njima kao skakavci, taki se i njima èinjasmo.
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!”
