Numbers 13
1 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], 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 men on your behalf, that they may spy out the land of Canaan [Humbled], which I give to the children of Israel [God prevails]. Of every tribe of their fathers, you shall send a man, every one a prince among them.”
3 Mose sì rán wọn jáde láti aginjù Parani gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ Olúwa. Gbogbo wọn jẹ́ olórí àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli.
Moses [Drawn out] sent them from the wilderness of Paran according to the order of Adonai. All them were men who were heads of the children of Israel [God prevails].

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 who Moses [Drawn out] sent to spy out the land. Moses [Drawn out] called Hoshea [Yah save] the son of Nun, who Moses [Drawn out] renamed Joshua [Yah Salvation].
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.
Moses [Drawn out] sent them to spy out the land of Canaan [Humbled], and said to them, “Go up this way by the South, and go up into the hill country.
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.
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 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 is good or bad; and what cities they are that they dwell in, whether in camps, or in strongholds;
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 is fat or lean, 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 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 spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, to the entrance of 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.)
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 [Abode of slavery].)
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.
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 Wọ́n sì sọ ibẹ̀ ní àfonífojì Eṣkolu nítorí ìdì èso gireepu tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gé níbẹ̀.
That place was called the valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel [God prevails] cut down from there.
25 Wọ́n padà sílé lẹ́yìn ogójì ọjọ́ tí wọ́n ti lọ yẹ ilẹ̀ náà wò.
They teshuvah ·completely returned· from spying out the land at the end of 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.
They went and came to Moses [Drawn out], to Aaron [Light-bringer], and to all the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails], 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 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.
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 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.
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 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.”
Amalek [Man who licks up] dwells in the land of the South. The Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear], the Jebusite [Descendants of Thresher], and the Amorite [Descendants of Talkers] dwell in the hill country. The Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled] dwells by the sea, and along the side of the Jordan [Descender].”
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.”
Caleb [Dog] stilled the people before Moses [Drawn out], 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 who went up with him said, “We are 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.
They brought up an evil report of the land which they had spied out to the children of Israel [God prevails], 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 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.”
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.”
