Chapter 13.

Our Papa tok give Moses say,

"Send men make dem go scout di land of Canaan, wey I dey give Israel im people. Send one man from every ancestral tribe, and make each one na leader among dem."

So Moses send dem comot from di wilderness of Paran as our Papa command am; all of dem na leader for Israel im people. Na dis be dia names: from di tribe of Reuben, Shammua di son of Zaccur;

from di tribe of Simeon, Shaphat di son of Hori;

from di tribe of Judah, Caleb di son of Jephunneh;

from di tribe of Issachar, Igal di son of Joseph;

from di tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea di son of Nun;

from di tribe of Benjamin, Palti di son of Raphu;

from di tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel di son of Sodi;

from di tribe of Joseph (dat is, from di tribe of Manasseh), Gaddi di son of Susi;

from di tribe of Dan, Ammiel di son of Gemalli;

from di tribe of Asher, Sethur di son of Michael;

from di tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi di son of Vophsi;

from di tribe of Gad, Geuel di son of Machi.

Na dis be di names of di men wey Moses send go scout di land. Moses call Hoshea son of Nun, Joshua. ^a Moses send dem go scout di land of Canaan and tok give dem say, "Follow dis road go up enter di Negev, go up enter di hill country, and see wetin di land be like, and weda di people wey dey live dia strong or weak, small-small or plenty, and weda di towns wey dem dey live na open camp or na wall dem build round am, and weda di land good or bad, and weda di land rich or poor, and weda e get tree or e no get. Get liver, and carry fruit from di land come back." Na di season of di first ripe grape be dat.

So dem go up and check di land well-well from di wilderness of Zin reach Rehob, near Lebo-hamath. Dem go up pass di Negev reach Hebron, wia Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, wey be Anak im pikin dem, dey live. Dem build Hebron seven years before dem build Zoan for Egypt. Dem reach di Valley of Eshcol and cut one branch wey get one cluster of grape, wey two men carry for pole between dem; dem also bring pomegranate and fig. Dem call dat place Valley of Eshcol, becos na dia di Israel people cut di cluster of grape.

Land wey get Promise and Fear

After forty days, dem come back from checking di land. Dem come meet Moses, Aaron, and di whole community of Israel for di wilderness of Paran, for Kadesh, report give dem and di whole community, and show dem di fruit of di land. Dem tok give am say, "We go di land wey you send us go. True-true, e dey flow with milk and honey; see im fruit be dis. But di people wey dey di land strong, di cities get wall round dem and dem big well-well—we even see Anak im pikin dem for dia. Amalek people dey live for di Negev. Hittite, Jebusite, and Amorite people dey live for di hills. Canaan people dey live for beside di sea and for beside di Jordan."

Caleb make di people keep quiet before Moses and tok say, "Make we go up now go take am—we fit conquer am for sure."

But di men wey go up with am tok say, "We no fit go up against di people, becos dem strong pass us." So dem give Israel bad report about di land wey dem check, dem tok say, "Di land wey we cross go check dey chop di people wey dey live inside am, and everybody wey we see dia big well-well. For dia we see di Nephilim—Anak im pikin dem come from di Nephilim. For our own eye, we be like grasshopper, and na so we be for dia own eye too." ^b
