Numbers 13:17–21

17 When Moses sent them to scout out the land of Canaan, he told them, “Go up this way to the Negev, then go up into the hill country. 18 See what the land is like, and whether the people who live there are strong or weak, few or many. 19 Is the land they live in goodo or bad? Are the cities they live in encampments or fortifications?p 20 Is the land fertile or unproductive?q Are there trees in it or not? Be courageous. Bring back some fruit from the land.” It was the season for the first ripe grapes.r

21 So they went up and scouted out the land from the Wilderness of ZinA as far as Rehob near the entrance to Hamath.B
