who
were

\par }{\MM \VS{15}Of

\par }{\MM \VS{16}These
are
the
names
of
the
men
who
Moses
sent
to
spy
out
the
land.
Moses
called
Hoshea
the
son
of
Nun
Joshua.
\VS{17}Moses
sent
them
to
spy
out
the
land
of
Canaan,
and
said
to
them, “Go
up
this
way
by
the
South,
and
go
up
into
the
hill
country.
\VS{18}See
the
land,
what
it
is;
and
the
people
who
dwell therein,
whether
they
are
strong
or weak,
whether
they
are
few
or
many;
\VS{19}and
what
the
land
is
that
they
dwell
in,
whether
it
is
good
or
bad;
and
what
cities
they
are
that
they
dwell
in,
whether
in
camps,
or
in
strongholds;
\VS{20}and
what
the
land
is,
whether
it
is
fertile
or
poor,
whether
there
is
wood therein,
or
not.
Be
courageous,
and
bring
some
of
the
fruit
of
the
land.”
Now
the
time
was
the
time
of
the first-ripe
grapes.
\par }{\PP \VS{21}So
they
went
up,
and
spied
out
the
land
from
the
wilderness
of
Zin
to
Rehob,
to
the
entrance
of
Hamath.
\VS{22}They
went
up
by
the
South,
and
came
to
Hebron;
and
Ahiman,
Sheshai,
and
Talmai,
the
children
of
Anak,
were
there. (Now
Hebron
was
built
seven
years
before
Zoan
in
Egypt.)
\VS{23}They
came
to
the
valley
of
Eshcol,
and
cut
down
from
there
a
branch
with
one
cluster
of
grapes,
and
they
bore
it
on
a staff
between
two.
They
also
brought
some
of
the
pomegranates
and
figs.
\VS{24}That
place
was
called
the
valley
of
Eshcol,
because
of
the
cluster
which
the
children
of
Israel
cut
down
from
there.
\VS{25}They
returned
from
spying
out
the
land
at
the
end
of
forty
days.
\VS{26}They
went
and
came
to
Moses,
to
Aaron,
and
to
all
the
congregation
of
the
children
of
Israel,
to
the
wilderness
of
Paran,
to
Kadesh;
and
brought
back
word
to
them
and
to
all
the
congregation.
They
showed
them
the
fruit
of
the
land.
\VS{27}They
told
him,
and
said, “We
came
to
the
land
where
you
sent
us.
Surely
it
flows
with
milk
and
honey,
and
this
is
its
fruit.
\VS{28}However,
the
people
who
dwell
in
the
land
are
strong,
and
the
cities
are
fortified
and
very
large.
Moreover,
we
saw
the
children
of
Anak
there.
\VS{29}Amalek
dwells
in
the
land
of
the
South.
The
Hittite,
the
Jebusite,
and
the
Amorite
dwell
in
the
hill
country.
The
Canaanite
dwells
by
the
sea,
and
along
the
side
of
the
Jordan.”
\par }{\PP \VS{30}Caleb stilled
the
people
before
Moses,
and
said, “Let’s
go
up
at once,
and
possess
it;
for
we
are well
able
to
overcome
it!”
\par }{\PP \VS{31}But
the
men
who
went
up
with
him
said, “We aren’t
able
to
go
up
against
the
people;
for
they
are
stronger
than
we.”
\VS{32}They
brought
up
an
evil
report
of
the
land
which
they
had
spied
out
to
the
children
of
Israel,
saying, “The
land,
through
which
we
have
gone
to
spy
it
out,
is
a
land
that
eats
up
its
inhabitants;
and
all
the
people
who
we
saw
in
it
are
men
of great stature.
\VS{33}There
we
saw
the
Nephilim,\FTNT{*}{{\FR 13:33 }
or, giants}
the
sons
of
Anak,
who
come
from
the
Nephilim.\FTNT{†}{{\FR 13:33 }
or, giants}
We
were
in
our
own
sight
as
grasshoppers,
and
so
we
were
in
their
sight.”

\par }\Chap{14}{\PP \VerseOne{1}All
the
congregation
lifted
up
their
voice,
and
cried;
and
the
people
wept
that
night.
\VS{2}All
the
children
of
Israel
murmured
against
Moses
and
against
Aaron.
The
whole
congregation
said
to
them, “We wish
that
we
had
died
in
the
land
of
Egypt,
or
that
we
had
died
in
this
wilderness!
\VS{3}Why
does
the
LORD
bring
us
to
this
land,
to
fall
by
the
sword?
Our
wives
and
our
little
ones
will
be captured
or
killed! Wouldn’t
it
be
better
for
us
to
return
into
Egypt?”
\VS{4}They
said
to
one
another, “Let’s choose
a
leader,
and let’s
return
into
Egypt.”
\par }{\PP \VS{5}Then
Moses
and
Aaron
fell
on
their
faces
before
all
the
assembly
of

congregation
of
the
children
of

\par }{\PP \VS{6}Joshua
the
son
of
Nun
and
Caleb
the
son
of
Jephunneh,
who
were
of
those
who
spied
out
the
land,
tore
their
clothes.
\VS{7}They
spoke
to
all
the
congregation
of
the
children
of
Israel,
saying, “The
land,
which
we
passed
through
to
spy
it
out,
is
an
exceedingly
good

\VS{8}If
the
LORD
delights
in
us,
then
he
will
bring
us
into
this

it
to
us:

flows
with
milk
and

\VS{9}Only
don’t
rebel
against

neither
fear
the

are

for

is
with

Don’t
fear
them.”
\par }{\PP \VS{10}But
all
the
congregation
threatened
to
stone
them
with
stones.
\par }{\PP The
LORD’s
glory
appeared
in
the
Tent
of
Meeting
to
all
the
children
of

\VS{11}The

said
to
Moses, “How

people
despise
me?
How
long
will
they
not
believe
in
me,
for
all
the
signs
which
I
have
worked amongst
them?
\VS{12}I
will
strike
them
with
the
pestilence,
and disinherit
them,
and
will
make
of
you
a
nation
greater
and
mightier
than
they.”
\par }{\PP \VS{13}Moses
said
to
the
LORD, “Then
the
Egyptians
will
hear
it;
for
you
brought
up
this
people
in
your
might
from amongst
them.
\VS{14}They
will
tell
it
to
the
inhabitants
of
this

have
heard
that
you

are amongst
this

for
you

are
seen
face

your
cloud
stands
over

and
you
go
before
them,
in
a
pillar
of
cloud
by
day,
and
in
a
pillar
of
fire
by
night.
\VS{15}Now
if
you
killed
this
people
as
one
man,
then
the
nations
which
have
heard
the
fame
of
you
will
speak,

was
not
able
to
bring
this

swore
to

power
of
the
Lord\FTNT{*}{{\FR 14:17 }
The word translated “Lord” (mixed case) is “Adonai.”}
be
great, according
as
you
have
spoken,
saying,
\VS{18}‘The
LORD
is
slow
to
anger,

abundant
in loving
kindness,
forgiving
iniquity

by

this
people according

greatness
of
your loving
kindness,
and
just
as
you
have
forgiven
this

from
Egypt
even
until
now.”
\par }{\PP \VS{20}The
LORD
said, “I
have
pardoned according

in very deed—as
I
live,

as
all
the
earth
shall
be
filled
with
the

all
those

who
have
seen
my
glory
and
my
signs,
which
I
worked
in
Egypt
and
in
the
wilderness,
yet
have
tempted
me
these
ten
times,

have
not
listened
to
my
voice;

they
shall
not
see
the

which
I
swore
to
their
fathers,
neither

who
despised
me
see
it.

had
another

with
him,

has
followed
me
fully,
him
I
will
bring
into
the

which
he
went.

Canaanite
dwell
in

tomorrow
turn
and
go
into

spoke
to
Moses

saying,
\VS{27}“How
long
shall
I bear
with
this
evil
congregation
that complain
against

heard
the complaints

against

them, ‘As

have
spoken
in

I
will
do
to

have
spoken.

do
this
to

up

came
out

who
offered
the
incense.

\VS{37}“Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire away from the camp; for they are holy,
\VS{38}even the censers of those who sinned against their own lives. Let them be beaten into plates for a covering of the altar, for they offered them before the LORD. Therefore they are holy. They shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”
\par }{\PP \VS{39}Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers which those who were burnt had offered; and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,
\VS{40}to be a memorial to the children of Israel, to the end that no stranger who isn’t of the offspring of Aaron, would come near to burn incense before the LORD, that he not be as Korah and as his company; as the LORD spoke to him by Moses.
\par }{\PP \VS{41}But on the next day all the congregation of the children of Israel complained against Moses and against Aaron, saying, “You have killed the LORD’s people!”
\par }{\PP \VS{42}When the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, they looked towards the Tent of Meeting. Behold, the cloud covered it, and the LORD’s glory appeared.
\VS{43}Moses and Aaron came to the front of the Tent of Meeting.
\VS{44}The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
\VS{45}“Get away from amongst this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!” They fell on their faces.
\par }{\PP \VS{46}Moses said to Aaron, “Take your censer, put fire from the altar in it, lay incense on it, carry it quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them; for wrath has gone out from the LORD! The plague has begun.”
\par }{\PP \VS{47}Aaron did as Moses said, and ran into the middle of the assembly. The plague had already begun amongst the people. He put on the incense, and made atonement for the people.
\VS{48}He stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
\VS{49}Now those who died by the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, in addition to those who died about the matter of Korah.

they travelled
to

in

of

to

down

\VS{21}Israel
sent

to

saying,
\VS{22}“Let

pass
through

will
not
turn
away
into
field
or

not
drink
of

of

go
by

highway,
until

have
passed
your

\par }{\PP \VS{23}Sihon
would
not
allow
Israel
to
pass
through
his
border,
but
Sihon
gathered
all
his
people
together,
and
went
out
against
Israel
into
the
wilderness,
and
came
to
Jahaz.
He
fought
against
Israel.
\VS{24}Israel
struck
him
with
the
edge
of
the
sword,
and
possessed
his
land
from
the
Arnon
to
the
Jabbok,
even
to
the
children
of
Ammon;
for
the
border
of
the
children
of
Ammon
was fortified.
\VS{25}Israel
took
all
these
cities.
Israel
lived
in
all
the
cities
of
the
Amorites,
in
Heshbon,
and
in
all
its
villages.
\VS{26}For
Heshbon
was
the
city
of
Sihon
the
king
of
the
Amorites,
who
had
fought
against
the
former
king
of
Moab,
and
taken
all
his
land
out
of
his
hand,
even
to
the
Arnon.
\VS{27}Therefore
those
who
speak
in proverbs
say,
\par }{\Q “Come
to
Heshbon.
\par }{\QB Let
the
city
of
Sihon
be
built
and
established;

has
gone
out

from

\par }{\Q \VS{29}Woe
to
you,
Moab!

are undone,

\par }{\Q \VS{30}We
have
shot
at
them.

have
laid

Israel
lived
in
the

of
the
Amorites.
\VS{32}Moses
sent
to

out

took
its
villages,
and
drove
out
the

who
were
there.
\VS{33}They
turned
and
went
up
by

of
Bashan.
Og
the
king
of
Bashan
went
out
against
them,
he
and
all
his

to

at
Edrei.

said
to

did
to

they
struck
him,

his

\par }{\PP \VS{21}Balaam
rose
up
in
the
morning,
and
saddled
his
donkey,
and
went
with
the
princes
of
Moab.
\VS{22}God’s
anger burnt
because
he
went;
and
the
LORD’s
angel
placed
himself
in
the
way
as
an
adversary
against
him.
Now
he
was
riding
on
his
donkey,
and
his
two
servants
were
with
him.
\VS{23}The
donkey
saw
the
LORD’s
angel
standing
in
the
way,
with
his
sword
drawn
in
his
hand;
and
the
donkey
turned
out
of
the
path,
and went
into
the
field.
Balaam
struck
the
donkey,
to
turn
her
into
the
path.
\VS{24}Then
the
LORD’s
angel
stood
in
a
narrow
path between
the
vineyards,
a
wall being
on
this
side,
and
a
wall
on
that
side.
\VS{25}The
donkey
saw
the
LORD’s
angel,
and she
thrust herself
to
the
wall,
and crushed
Balaam’s
foot
against
the
wall.
He
struck
her
again.
\par }{\PP \VS{26}The
LORD’s
angel
went
further,
and
stood
in
a narrow
place,
where
there
was
no
way
to
turn either
to
the
right
hand
or
to
the
left.
\VS{27}The
donkey
saw
the
LORD’s
angel,
and she
lay
down
under
Balaam.
Balaam’s
anger burnt,
and
he
struck
the
donkey
with
his
staff.
\par }{\PP \VS{28}The
LORD
opened
the
mouth
of
the
donkey,
and
she
said
to
Balaam, “What
have
I
done
to
you,
that
you
have
struck
me
these
three
times?”
\par }{\PP \VS{29}Balaam
said
to
the
donkey, “Because
you
have mocked
me,
I wish
there
were
a
sword
in
my
hand,
for
now
I
would
have
killed
you.”
\par }{\PP \VS{30}The
donkey
said
to
Balaam, “Am
I
not
your
donkey,
on
which
you
have
ridden
all
your
life
long
until
today?
Was
I
ever
in
the habit
of
doing
so
to
you?”
\par }{\PP He
said, “No.”
\par }{\PP \VS{31}Then
the
LORD
opened
the
eyes
of
Balaam,
and
he
saw
the
LORD’s
angel
standing
in
the
way,
with
his
sword
drawn
in
his
hand;
and
he
bowed
his head,
and fell
on
his
face.
\VS{32}The
LORD’s
angel
said
to
him, “Why
have
you
struck
your
donkey
these
three
times?
Behold,
I
have
come
out
as
an
adversary,
because
your
way
is perverse
before
me.
\VS{33}The
donkey
saw
me,
and
turned
away
before
me
these
three
times.
Unless
she
had
turned
away
from
me,
surely
now
I would
have
killed
you,
and saved
her
alive.”
\par }{\PP \VS{34}Balaam
said
to
the
LORD’s
angel, “I
have
sinned;
for
I
didn’t
know
that
you
stood
in
the
way
against
me.
Now
therefore,
if
it
displeases
you,
I
will
go
back
again.”
\par }{\PP \VS{35}The
LORD’s
angel
said
to
Balaam, “Go
with
the
men;
but
you
shall
only
speak
the
word
that
I
shall
speak
to
you.”
\par }{\PP So
Balaam
went
with
the
princes
of
Balak.
\VS{36}When

heard
that

had
come,
he
went
out
to
meet
him
to
the
City
of

which
is
on

border
of

Arnon,
which
is
in

said
to
Balaam, “Didn’t

send
for

summon
you?
Why
didn’t
you
come
to
