23 And they come to the wadi of Eshcol and they cut down a twig with one cluster of grapes; and they bear it between two on a pole; also of the pomegranates and of the figs.
24 The place is called the wadi Eshcol, because of the clusters the sons of Yisra El cut down from there.
25 And they return from exploring the land at the end of forty days.

EXPLORERS RETURN WORD
And they come and go to Mosheh and to Aharon and to all the witness of the sons of Yisra El, to the wilderness of Paran, to Qadesh; and return word to them and to all the witness and has them see the fruit of the land. 27 And they describe to him and say, We went to the land you sent us and surely it flows with milk and honey and this is the fruit thereof: 28 only, the people settling in the land are strong and the cities fortified and mighty great: and we saw the birthed of Anak there: 29 the Amaleqiy settle in the land of the south: and the Hethiy and the Yebusiy and the Emoriy settle in the mountains: and the Kenaaniy settle by the sea and by the hand of Yarden. 30 And Kaleb stills the people in front of Mosheh, and says, In ascending, we ascend and possess it; for we can prevail. 31 And the men who ascended with him say, We cannot ascend against the people; for they are stronger than we. 32 And they bring up a slander of the land they explored to the sons of Yisra El, saying, The land we passed through to explore is a land that eats them who settle there; and all the people we saw in their midst are men of measure: 33 and there we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak of the Nephilim: and we were in our own eyes as grasshoppers and so we were in their eyes. 14 1
THE SONS OF YISRA EL MURMUR
And all the witness lift and give their voice and cry; and the people weep that night. 2 And all the sons of Yisra El murmur against Mosheh and against Aharon: and all the witness say to them, O that we had died in the land of Misrayim! O that we had died in this wilderness! 3 And why brings Yah Veh us to this land, to fall by the sword? And our women and our children become a plunder? Were it not better for us to return into Misrayim? 4 And they say man to brother, We give us a head and return to Misrayim. 5 Then Mosheh and Aharon fall at the face of all the congregation of the witness of the sons of Yisra El: 6 and Yah Shua the son of Nun and Kaleb the son of Yephunneh, being of them who explored the land, rip their clothes: 7 and they say to all the witness of the sons of Yisra El, saying, The land, we passed through to explore, is a mighty mighty good land: 8 if Yah Veh delights in us, he brings us into this land and gives it us - a land flowing with milk and honey: 9 only neither rebel against Yah Veh, nor awe the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence turns aside from them and Yah Veh is with us: - awe them not. 10 And all the witness say to stone them with stones. And the honor of Yah Veh is seen in the tent of the congregation at the face of all the sons of Yisra El:
