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, and you will see what the land is [like] and if the people who inhabit it [are] strong or weak, or whether they are few or many, and whether the land that they [are] inhabiting [is] good or bad, and whether the cities they [are] inhabiting are camps or fortifications, read more.
and whether the land [is] fertile or lean, and whether there are trees on it or not. You will show yourself courageous, and you will take some of the fruit of the land." It [was] the time of first ripe grapes. So they went up and explored the land from the desert of Zin until Rehob, at Lebo Hamath. They went up through the Negev and came to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai the descendants of the Anakites [were]. (Hebron was built seven years before Zoan [in] Egypt.) And they came up to the valley of Eshcol, and they cut off a vine branch and one cluster of grapes from there; they carried it on pole between two [men], [with] pomegranates and figs. That place he called the valley of Eshcol on account of the cluster of grapes that the {Israelites} cut off from there. They returned from exploring the land at the end of forty days. And they came to Moses and Aaron and to the entire community of the {Israelites} in the desert of Paran at Kadesh; they brought back word to them and [to] all the community, and they showed them the fruit of the land. And they told him, "We came to the land that you sent us, and it [is] flowing of milk and honey; this [is] its fruit. Yet the people who are inhabiting [it are] strong and the cities [are] fortified and very large; moreover, we saw the descendants of the Anakites there. [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."
