013:025 They returned from spying out the land at the end of forty days.
013:026 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 shown them the fruit of the land.
013:027 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.
013:028 However the people who dwell in the land are strong,
and the cities are fortified, [and] very great:
and moreover we saw the children of Anak there.
013:029 Amalek dwells in the land of the South: and the Hittite,
and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, dwell in the hill country;
and the Canaanite dwells by the sea, and along by the side
of the Jordan.
013:030 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.
013:031 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.
013:032 They brought up an evil report of the land which they had

the Nephilim: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers,
and so we were in their sight.
014:001 All the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried;
and the people wept that night.
014:002 All the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron:
and the whole congregation said to them, Would that we
had died in the land of Egypt! or would that we had died

014:003 Why does Yahweh bring us to this land, to fall by the sword?
Our wives and our little ones will be a prey: wouldn't it

014:004 They said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us
return into Egypt.
014:005 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly
of the congregation of the children of Israel.
014:006 Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh,
who were of those who spied out the land, tore their clothes:
014:007 and they spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel,
saying, The land, which we passed through to spy it out,
