< Numbers 13 >
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 “Rán ènìyàn díẹ̀ láti lọ yẹ ilẹ̀ Kenaani wò èyí tí mo ti fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli. Rán ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan, tí ó jẹ́ olórí láti inú ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan.”
Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among them.
3 Mose sì rán wọn jáde láti aginjù Parani gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ Olúwa. Gbogbo wọn jẹ́ olórí àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli.
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 Orúkọ wọn nìwọ̀nyí: láti inú ẹ̀yà Reubeni, Ṣammua ọmọ Sakkuri;

16 Wọ̀nyí ni orúkọ àwọn ènìyàn tí Mose rán láti lọ yẹ ilẹ̀ náà wò. (Hosea ọmọ Nuni ni Mose sọ ní Joṣua.)
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 Nígbà tí Mose rán wọn lọ láti yẹ ilẹ̀ Kenaani wò, ó sọ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ gba ọ̀nà gúúsù lọ títí dé àwọn ìlú olókè.
And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you up this [way] southward, and go up into the mountain:
18 Ẹ wò ó bí ilẹ̀ náà ti rí, bóyá àwọn tó ń gbé ilẹ̀ náà jẹ́ alágbára tàbí aláìlágbára, bóyá wọ́n pọ̀ tàbí wọn kéré.
And see the land, what it [is; ] and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they [be] strong or weak, few or many;
19 Irú ilẹ̀ wo ni wọ́n gbé? Ṣé ilẹ̀ tó dára ni àbí èyí tí kò dára? Báwo ni ìlú wọn ti rí? Ṣé ìlú olódi ni àbí èyí tí kò ní odi?
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 Báwo ni ilẹ̀ náà ti rí? Ṣé ilẹ̀ ọlọ́ràá ni tàbí aṣálẹ̀? Ṣé igi wà níbẹ̀ àbí kò sí? E sa ipá yín láti rí i pé ẹ mú díẹ̀ nínú èso ilẹ̀ náà wá.” (Ìgbà náà sì jẹ́ àkókò àkọ́pọ́n èso àjàrà gireepu.)
And what the land [is], whether it [be] fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And be ye of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time [was] the time of the firstripe grapes.
21 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n gòkè lọ láti yẹ ilẹ̀ náà wò, wọ́n lọ láti aginjù Sini títí dé Rehobu lọ́nà Lebo-Hamati.
So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath.
22 Wọ́n gba gúúsù lọ sí Hebroni níbi tí Ahimani, Ṣeṣai àti Talmai tí í ṣe irú-ọmọ Anaki ń gbé. (A ti kọ́ Hebroni ní ọdún méje ṣáájú Ṣoani ní Ejibiti.)
And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, [were]. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
23 Nígbà tí wọ́n dé àfonífojì Eṣkolu, wọ́n gé ẹ̀ka kan tó ní ìdì èso àjàrà gireepu kan. Àwọn méjì sì fi ọ̀pá kan gbé e; wọ́n tún mú èso pomegiranate àti èso ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ pẹ̀lú.
And they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it between two upon a staff; and [they brought] of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
24 Wọ́n sì sọ ibẹ̀ ní àfonífojì Eṣkolu nítorí ìdì èso gireepu tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gé níbẹ̀.
The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence.
25 Wọ́n padà sílé lẹ́yìn ogójì ọjọ́ tí wọ́n ti lọ yẹ ilẹ̀ náà wò.
And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.
26 Wọ́n padà wá bá Mose àti Aaroni àti gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ní ijù Kadeṣi Parani. Wọ́n mú ìròyìn wá fún wọn àti fún gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn, wọ́n fi èso ilẹ̀ náà hàn wọ́n.
And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of the land.
27 Wọ́n sì fún Mose ní ìròyìn báyìí, “A lọ sí ilẹ̀ ibi tí o rán wa, lóòtítọ́ ló sì ń sàn fún wàrà àti fún oyin! Èso ibẹ̀ nìyìí.
And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this [is] the fruit of it.
28 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ènìyàn tó ń gbé níbẹ̀ lágbára, àwọn ìlú náà jẹ́ ìlú olódi bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì tóbi púpọ̀. A tilẹ̀ rí àwọn irú-ọmọ Anaki níbẹ̀.
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 Àwọn Amaleki ń gbé ní ìhà gúúsù; àwọn ará Hiti, àwọn ará Jebusi àti àwọn ará Amori ni wọ́n ń gbé ní orí òkè ilẹ̀ náà, àwọn ará Kenaani sì ń gbé ẹ̀bá òkun àti ní etí bèbè Jordani.”
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 Kalebu sì pa àwọn ènìyàn náà lẹ́nu mọ́ níwájú Mose, ó wí pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí á gòkè lọ lẹ́ẹ̀kan náà láti lọ gba ilẹ̀ náà, nítorí pé àwa le è gbà á.”
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 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin tí wọ́n jọ gòkè lọ yẹ ilẹ̀ wò sọ pé, “Àwa kò le gòkè lọ bá àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí nítorí pé wọ́n lágbára jù wá lọ.”
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 Báyìí ni wọ́n ṣe mú ìròyìn búburú ti ilẹ̀ náà, tí wọ́n lọ yọ́wò wá fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli. Wọ́n wí pé, “Ilẹ̀ tí a lọ yẹ̀ wò jẹ́ ilẹ̀ tí ń run àwọn olùgbé ibẹ̀. Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí a rí níbẹ̀ jẹ́ ènìyàn tó fìrìgbọ̀n tó sì síngbọnlẹ̀.
And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, [is] a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it [are] men of a great stature.
33 A sì tún rí àwọn òmíràn (irú àwọn ọmọ Anaki) àwa sì rí bí i kòkòrò tata ní ojú ara wa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwa náà sì rí ní ojú wọn.”
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.
