Moses sent them to explore the land of Canaan, and he said to them, "Go up [like] this to the Negev, and go up into the hill country,

[The] Amalekites [are] living in the land of the Negev; the Hittites, Jebusites, and the Amorites [are] living in the hill country; and the Canaanites [are] living at the sea and on the banks of the Jordan."
